About Banh Mi Town
On Hanson St in London, Banh Mi Town is a Vietnamese restaurant serving traditional banh mi and regional dishes in a small space. Chicken Banh Mi and BBQ Pork Banh Mi appear often on tables, sometimes paired with iced coffee, while pho and spring rolls round out common orders. A savoury pancake, tried with prawns, is offered as an appetizer, and chicken satay shows up as a topping choice for both banh mi and pho. The menu includes a deal covering two dishes together. Orders are taken on a walk-in basis with no reservations. The dining area is compact, and the seating shows some wear from use.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often return for the banh mi, with the chicken satay and BBQ pork versions named repeatedly. One describes the bread as crunchy outside and soft inside, another says the pork tasted close to what they ate in Vietnam, and a third calls it packed with heat. Close behind are the pho and the spring rolls, which one reviewer found crisp and well sized. A savory pancake with prawns is also singled out as tasty, and one pairs the pork banh mi with iced coffee. Value comes up often, including a two dishes deal that one pair of diners took. The main caveat is service. Reviewers describe staff as perfunctory or not always the friendliest, and one says another server kept asking if they were ready to order. The seating area draws mention for visible wear and tear, and one notes it suits a quick stop rather than long conversation. One order arrived as pork banh mi instead of the chicken that was requested, though the reviewer found it quite tasty.

“Excellent!!! The BBQ Pork Banh Mi is just fantastic, definitely one for the spicy lovers, as its packed with plenty of flavour and heat.”

“This place is such a hidden gem, and I’m genuinely surprised more people don’t know about it. If you’re visiting, you have to try the banh mi chicken, it is honestly one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had. I always pay extra for the additional sauce, and it’s completely worth it. It takes the sandwich to another level. The chicken is full of flavour, everything tastes fresh, and the balance of textures is spot on. If you’re a fan of banh mi, I can’t recommend this place enough. At least for the chicken version, it’s easily one of the best I’ve ever had, and I’ll definitely be coming back for it.”

“The BBQ pork banh mi and iced coffee are always the best combo for me. The banh mi tasted so close to what I usually had back in Vietnam. The meat was flavourful and the pickles helped to boost the overall taste of the dish. Highly recommended!!”

“These guys have a tasty savoury pancake - I had it with prawns & enjoyed it. The spring rolls are also very tasty and crisp. Good size and temperature of both dishes. Atmosphere could be a little better in the seating area since you can see a fair amount of wear & tear, but it’s still worth visiting! The menu is relatively small as well, but covers all bases so makes it easy to choose something good :)”

“Been coming here every week at least ones, price to quality ratio is unbeatable in the area. We tried many Pho places around London, and always come back here. The Pho is great, love the chicken satay, Banh Mis are amazing. Representation is simple and efficient, taste is great, that is all that matters. Would definitely recommend all for a quick stop to enjoy food that is soulful. If you want to sit and enjoy long discussions, there are better places for that.”
