Decent - Edit
I enjoy all food which is vegan so I had a lovely breakfast if banmhi here. But it is not fancy or luxurious by any means. I found the place clean and the food reasonable.

I loved everything about this fabulous little gem that did take a little finding but so worth it! It’s a family’s dwelling and the food is therefore home cooked!

It was good but… - Edit
I came there with very high expectations. The spring rolls and the Banh Mi were really good, but the room where you eat is not that nice, you want to leave quickly. I think it‘s a little bit overrated 😶

Brilliant and cheap - Edit
This place is such a hidden gem. There are more options than just banh mi to choose. I particularly like their crispy vegan puffs. Go here when I'm bored of my daily food.

Very good and such a fun vibe - Edit
If you want to be kind of cramped in an alleyway with a bunch of vegans with authentic banh mi and other tasty treats - this is the spot! I loved it. It was very tasty and the owners are incredibly kind.

Overrated - Edit
Based on the reviews, I felt the hype for a vegan bang mi. The restaurant is in the back alley, below a vegan couple’s home. It’s as “mom and pop” as can be. I had an authentic experience but was left unimpressed by the food.
Read moreThe sandwich was tasty, but given the price and the ambience and the lack of attention from the owners, it wasn’t the best dining experience I had. Maybe I came at a bad time?
Pros: Vegan, Family-owned
Cons: Not worth the hype, Difficult to find, navigate to, High prices for quality & quantity

Ordered the tofu banh mi for 35k which was brilliant. Also ordered the pho which was a 6/10 again for 35k and then pillow dumplings for 30k.

Lovely food and message! - Edit
Had Bahn Mi & Noodles here and they were both delicious, it’s down an alley so not totally viable from street but worth going to find it!
Read moreThe story of their business going vegan is inspiring especially considering the food culture in Vietnam!
Would highly recommend
Pros: Great food, Cheap, Warm welcome

Amazing bahn mi - Edit
We both had the tofu bahn mi and the flavour with peanuts was really good. It was quite dry without sauce, which I like, and there was sauce on the table so people can add as much as they like.
Read moreThere's a great story to this restaurant which is set out on the menu, so it feels good to support this family-run vegan restaurant. They will also fill up your water bottle with filtered water before you leave.
Pros: Good portion size, Tasty tofu bahn mi, Will fill up your water bottle

5 stars for vegan family - Edit
OKAY SO. I went to Vegan Bahn Mi twice within a few days- purely because of the generosity and kindness and energy of the place!!
Read moreThe Bahn mi itself is around a 4/5 honestly! Needs more salads but that is common for this city personally!!
I had the vegan soy protein option (number one) and the tofu ball Bahn mi. The tofu ball one was surprisingly my favourite!!!! The balls are not hard like a fish ball as you might expect them to be and the bread is fresh.
Sauces and salt and chilli available on the side and the mother gave me extra cucumber and cabbage when I asked nicely😄
Pros: Free Wifi and water bottle refills!!!!!!!!, Pamphlets and vegan memorabilia / decor, FANS for the humidity
Cons: Not enough salad filling (common in Hanoi)

Excellent hidden treasure - Edit
Hidden away in an alley is one of the best, most friendly places to get some amazing vegan food! We had banh mi, fried spring rolls and fried dumplings and they were all fabulous. We will definitely visit again soon!

The best vegan Banh Mi in Hanoi - Edit
My friend and I enjoyed a delicious banh mi at this shop. It is located in a hidden alley, just a few minutes walk from Hoan Kiem Lake in the French Quarter. The shop offers a variety of options, and we tried the mixed version (thap cam). Highly recommended!

Un posto meraviglioso - Edit
Alcuni posti meritano una recensione diversa. Non per il cibo, perché quello che si mangia è comunque tutto buonissimo (tranne per il coriandolo, chiedete di toglierlo perché è nei noodle e nel pho), ma per le persone e l'etica con cui mantengono il loro locale. Persone deliziose che hanno affronto anni di incertezza per aprire un posticino che rispecchi quello in cui credono. Potete leggere la loro storia nel menù. Quando arrivate nella via principale è quasi nascosto in una viottola, chiedete informazioni se non lo trovate. Pochi Posti posti a sedere (5/6) ma sono tutti cordiali e il cibo è fantastico. Super consigliato

Small place for good food - very convenient for museums - Edit
One of those slightly difficult places to find, as is a fair bit down the alley (although there is a sign on the gate to the alley saying 'Vegan Banh Mi' which helped a lot).
Read moreOffers free drinking water (if you provide a container), free WiFi. Two/three small tables in a ground floor room with chairs or you can sit outside in the alley on the usual small plastic chairs and tables. Service was friendly and super fast.
Had the protein banh mi which was great although maybe could have used a little more filling. Also the crispy pillow dumplings which were DELICIOUS.
Would definitely recommend as is also in a solid location if you're walking around, close to several museums (would recommend the Vietnamese women's museum which is about a 5 min walk)
Pros: Great food, Quick service

Liebenswerter Ort mit altem Hanoi Charme - Edit
Ich hab etwas scharfe Soße zu meinem Bánh Mì hinzugefügt. Die Betreiber sind eine ganz liebe zuvorkommende Familie, die sich Stolz für den Veganismus und die Umwelt einsetzen gegen viele Widrigkeiten.
