All vegan, eco conscious, inexpensive and delicious

I stopped by this small shop in the alley to try out the banh mi. As expected it was delicious. I had the mixed banh mi. The place gives free drinking water to anyone who has a reusable water bottle even if you’re not eating there. Also has info veganism.

Pros: All vegan menu

Very good food, friendly service

Sehr gutes Essen in einem kleinen Lokal. Es ist sehr versteckt, daher ist es gut wenn man mit einem Straßenplan am Weg ist.

Pros: Many options, All vegan, Cheap

Cons: A bit hard to find

Delish Vegan Banh Mi

Absolutely loved this little hidden gem. Food was great as were the family who owned the shop, super happy and friendly. Highly recommend! I love the transition from non vegan to vegan - I for one was very grateful I found such a great vegan meal!

Excellent Vegan Banh Mi

Had a tofu banh mii, and it was delicious. The place is small, and the staff was friendly. You can eat at the street or indoors. There are lots of vegan street food options. Definitely worth trying.

Pros: All vegan

Perfect little place

Everything here seems to be absolutely perfect. Came here twice in 3 days. Food is amazing and if you’re lucky you’ll be greeted by the two cutest little ladies, who speak surprisingly well English.
Please do go!

Pros: Good vegan options

Happy lovely vegan family serving tasty vegan Vietnamese street food

The mixed banh mi was amazing, I took 2. Also the noodle soup. The girls of the family are the waiters, as they speak English. And they are adorable, as all the family. They even re-opened after closing time and cooked for us. The prices are super-low, at 40-45k for 1 banh mi, for example.

Pros: Inexpensive, Tasty vegan street food, Adorable vegan family

Lovely food, lovely family

Tasty food, affordable (especially for hanoi). Had a very enjoyable chat with the two daughters of the owner who are just a delight to chat with in their excellent english. Just a authentic and lovely experience (go in the morning for a wider choice of menu items as they sell out of some things as the day progresses)

Pros: All vegan options, Lovely family , Tasty food

Cons: None

Sadly disappointing bahn mi’s

We stopped by here for four bahn mi’s, two to eat and two to take away for later (we had a long sleeper bus) and to be honest they were very disappointing.

We’ve had heaps of bahn mi’s across the country and this was probably the worst one😒we got the high protein one on the menu and they felt half empty, they didn’t taste that good at all..

Maybe the rest of the items on the menu are good but I wouldn’t go back😒

Love it here! Everything is delicious, cheap and authentic.

Everything here is so good, so nice we came back twice. I'm Vietnamese and a former meat eater, finding a vegan alternative to some Vietnamese foods has been hard in Canada. Happy to eat here, the family is really nice. I recommend the bánh mì, fried pillow doughnut and pineapple juice!

Pros: Great prices, amazing food and decent portion., Pineapple juice - the best , Friendly staff, the little girl is so sweet!

Amazing family owned restaurant

Family run business, which is clearly very eco friendly. Amazing vegan Banh Mi for very cheap prices. And their daughter makes handmade takeaway boxes out of her recycled colouring books!


Edit: it’s been 3 years and I still dream about this Banh Mi. If you’re in Hanoi you have to go!

Fantastic Vegan Vietnamese Street Food

It's easy to pass by Vegan Banh Mi since it looks like just another street food vendor. But they have some signs with the word "vegan" and a nice staff member found me looking lost and reassured me that I found the right place.
Came for an early, light lunch and had a Banh Mi and a fried spring roll. Both were delicious and my only regret was not trying more things. It really felt like an authentic experience and food was tasty and presented nicely.

Pros: Convenient location, Street food, Cheap
