Welcome to Hanoi Pho, a delightful gem nestled at 179 Mare Street, London. If you're on the hunt for authentic Vietnamese cuisine, this restaurant stands out as a must-visit destination. Renowned for its welcoming atmosphere and top-notch service, Hanoi Pho offers an experience that goes beyond just food; it’s a culinary journey through Vietnam's rich flavors.
At the heart of their menu is the beloved Bun Hue, a spicy vermicelli broth that pays homage to the ancient imperial city of Hue. Its distinct taste, infused with lemongrass and a hint of spicy chili oil, provides a unique twist that sets it apart from other noodle soups. Many diners rave about the Egg Noodle Broth, crafted using traditional methods that elevate this classic dish to another level.
Customers have consistently praised the generous portion sizes and the outstanding quality of the dishes. From 10-pound bowls of pho that won't break the bank to the flavorful Glazed Chicken Wings and Grilled Pork with Vermicelli, every item on the menu is a testament to the chef's dedication to authentic cooking. Regulars, like Piers Secunda, proclaim a remarkable improvement in quality since the chef took ownership, indicating a hands-on commitment to excellence.
Guests also marvel at the crispiness of dishes like the crispy pancake, which manages to be satisfyingly crisp without being oily. Enthusiastic reviewers often highlight the delightful service, where charismatic waitstaff bring an added warmth to the dining experience. This is a restaurant where both food and hospitality shine.
Overall, Hanoi Pho is not just a place to eat; it's an experience steeped in Vietnamese culture and flavors. I highly recommend visiting to savor their exquisite dishes, feel welcomed by their friendly staff, and indulge in the heartwarming atmosphere.

I visited this restaurant last week, and the service was quick and excellent. The food was delicious, and the portions were so generous that I felt completely full after just the main course. Would come here again!
Best affordable and authentic Vietnamese food. A bowl of pho is only roughly 10 which is v cheap for what you get. Great service with v charismatic waiter! I come here regularly and would say it's the best food compared to its competitors on mare street. Fyi, the pho has more Northern tastes (less sweet than Southern).
I love Hanoi Pho. Been going there for over ten years. The chef just became the owner and the quality of the food has jumped up. Glazed Chicken wings / Grilled Pork with vermicelli / papaya salad with prawns are stand out dishes for me !!
The staff were friendly and the service was fast... the food was very good!I had the crispy pancake which was crispy on the outside and not oily at all (which I find in many other places) for main I had bun bo hue which was perfect, the both had lots of favour and the beef melts on in your mouth. The place needs updating but I found out they just took over the place so it’s on the list of things to do. Overall service and food 10/10 can’t fault it.. keep up the standard guys!!!!
This is my favorite Vietnamese restaurant. The food here was amazing, very cheap price compared to other Vietnamese restaurants I used to eat. The handsome waiter explained how to eat them properly really well to me. Especially beef pho and Hue beef noodle soup here are really excellent compared to Green Papaya restaurant. I will definitely come back in the future. A great experience.
This is my new favourite place for Vietnamese in London!!! No frills, lovely service and absolutely delicious, authentic food. The beef stew was gelatinous, hearty and super aromatic. The pork & spring roll bun was the best I’ve had, with lots of herbs snd pickled veg. I usually hate writing reviews...but this place really deserves it. I’ve been to SO many more average Vietnamese in the area who have much higher ratings. Come here - it really is the best!!! We’ll be back very soon! Thank you
Took family for lunch this afternoon and everything we ordered was fantastic. Looking forward to our next meal and trying other options on the menu. Two children love their food as well.
I have been here every week and every time the food and the service was spot on. Can confirm as a Vietnamese born and bred the Rare Beef Pho taste very very authentic. It is different from other places and can tell the chef puts a lot of care into every dish. The beef is quality and tender. Price is very reasonable. You got my continuous support as honestly it is very stand out thats why I keep coming back Highly recommended Beef Pho and Shaking Beef. P/s my proper Vietnamese auntie recommended me this restaurant so. if you know you know
