Banh Banh in Southwark

Pedí la ensalada de fideos de cerdo, y fue la peor que había comido, en lugar de cerdo delicioso recibí estas empanadas de salchichas de cerdo, que sabían a comida para perros, ni siquiera podía comerlo, ni hierbas ni nada, he pedido de esta cocina muchas veces y he estado feliz, no volveré a pedir de ellos

Visited Banh Banh last night, a regular restaurant for us that never disappoints. Our favourites include the papaya salad and the pork bun noodle salad. The pho is solid. The cocktails are great. Among other restaurants in the area, it’s great value for money. However, the beer selection could be expanded, currently limited to Saigon and two Western options.

Couldn't put precisely into words how magnificent this restaurant is! The food, the ambience, the music and the extremely kind staff. Absolutely GORGEOUS! 1000 out of 10 xx

This restaurant has become a favourite of ours, and we’ve visited multiple times. The food is consistently tasty and vibrant, especially the papaya salad and the grilled pork with vermicelli – both are must-tries. The portions are generous, which we appreciate. The atmosphere of the place adds to the experience, making it a spot we’re happy to return to again and again. It’s hard to find anything to complain about here. It’s our go-to local restaurant, and we plan to keep coming back.

Even though I believe this restaurant to be a one off it does feel a little more like a chain. The seats aren’t massively comfortable, I guess to encourage you not to linger. However, the overall vibe of the place is nice, and the music was really good. Food was mostly excellent, and never less than good, and cocktails were really well made. Highlights for me were chicken wings and the prawn pancakes. Small menu, which I approve of - do a few things and do them well! For two of you I’d advise three small sharing plates and one small sharing plate. We had that combo, and two cocktails each, and the bill came to £80 which is not bad for this increasingly trendy neck of the woods.

I called up to order a vegan noodle soup, I thought it had coconut in, lady on phone repeated a Vietnamese name which I could barely hear, I said ok. Went to pick up, it was not a noodle soup but they wouldn’t exchange for the ‘vegan noodle soup’ I requested on the phone. Disappointed by this lack of goodwill and clearly a misunderstanding on both parts. will not be visiting this local establishment again.

We had summer rolls, grilled aubergines and papaya salad as starters - large prawns in the rolls. Could do with more lime juice, fish sauce and chilli in the salad. Beef pho - decent quantity of sliced beef but very diluted stock - the stock is the most important element in any pho! The pork patties with the cold rice noodles were dry, tough and burnt! Good amount of salads in the cold noodles but lack savouriness from little fish sauce, lime juice and chilli. After all the past reviews - disappointment. Friendly service from staff and gave feedback so hope it reaches the chef.

We ordered delivery from BB. I found the food very tasty and well prepared, especially the pork dishes and spring rolls. Well done.

Had a great experience it was very professionally welcomed and run through the menu in detail. Top experience thanks guys

Finally made our long overdue visit here for a birthday meal and it was well worth the wait. Sevice was very attentive and speedy and the food was fantastic. Highlight was the generous serving of chicken wings. We just about stuck to the advice to order three to five dishes and I doubt we would have been able to have much more. Look forward to returning to try the rest of the menu.

I've been 3 times now on meat-free Mondays and have loved it every time. Relaxed, friendly atmosphere, good food and tasty cocktails. Not been on other days of the week so can't comment on meat dishes, but we've been as a couple then with two different sets of people and has been a great night every time. Really enjoyable.

Absolute 10/10! Best pho I ever had in my life. The flavours were insane, and the portion was significant; I couldn’t even finish my plate. Please, you MUST order the prawn pancakes. It was divine. The prices were reasonable. We will be back! 😍

We had such a nice time at Banh Banh, we walked in without booking and they got us a table straight away. The service was super fast and friendly, we had everything we needed at all times. The aubergine, prawn summer rolls, the yellow curry and fried tofu and crepe caramel were all amazing.

Keep coming back to Banh Banh because the food (and cocktails) are so delicious, the staff are so warm and helpful, and it offers more choices for vegans and vegetarians than you can eat in one meal, which is a rare thing, even now. We always enjoyed Banh Banh as a family when we could go in person. Now it's our first choice for picking up a reliably exquisite takeaway - most recently to celebrate a birthday.

Great place. The food and the cocktails were really tasty! The service was brilliant and all felt very safe in the current climate. 100% coming back. Thanks for a great night!

I never write trip advisor reviews, however, this was the worst Vietnamese / restaurant I’ve ever visited. The food was bland - chicken wings were dry. The shrimp pancakes fall apart and came with a side of “lettuce leaves” which looked like stingy nettles. Not even lettuce! The one chicken dish came and looked so awful, neither myself or my partner touched it. To make matters worse, I don’t eat pork for religious reasons and made the waitress aware that neither myself or partner eat it. I went for what I was told was the tofu option, only to be given pork. Which I didn’t realise until the receipt came. This is disgraceful customer service! I made the owner aware of the error, paid the bill and left. Don’t visit this restaurant. Save your Monday and go to Brixton village, better yet, cook yourself as will test much better than this rubbish.

Went on a Friday night, nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Good for a date. Portions were big and they provided extra chillis which I asked for to go with my pho. Had choc sorbet for dessert which was tasty.

I have recently moved to the area and took my mum and dad who were visiting. We had the pancakes and the pho and a selection of starters. All of the dishes were absolutely incredible and really different to any other restaurant I have been to. It was also just the right amount of food. The staff really went out of their way to provide brilliant service and the restaurant itself is done up really nicely. Was also very reasonably priced and a lot cheaper than other restaurants in the area. No complaints from anyone we will definitely go again.

Delicious - the pancakes are wonderful, but everything on the menu is well thought out, and well executed. Staff are always friendly and fantastic!

Visited on a quiet weekday evening. Had prawn pancakes, aubergine, spring rolls, beef in betel leaves. A decent amount for 2 people to share. Aubergine was incredible and prawn pancakes v interesting. Great food, service and setting. Would like to come again.

Enjoyed wonderful food with our son who lives nearby. We had just returned from holidaying in Vietnam and so keen to see how the food compared. We weren’t disappointed and would highly recommend.

Had the beef betel and the cari chicken- both good. There may have been too much Cumin in the cari. The service was good .

We came here as a group of 6 for a friends birthday. The food was delicious - we tried a broad range of the food on the menu, and the wine selection was fantastic. The service was good and really friendly and helpful. Definitely would...

Delicious selection of starters - spring rolls best I’ve ever had. Very authentic. Cari ga has amazing flavours. 100% recommend

We went to the Peckham branch. A great place. We shared a range of dishes: the pancakes and papaya salad were particularly good. The wine list is limited but the Vietnamese beer is worth trying. Prices are very reasonable, the service friendly and prompt. The...

Brixton Banh Banh is awesome. The food is amazing, so tasty. Such a gem of a restaurant. Great service and price too. I would recommend it to anyone who loves quality food. I can't wait to go back. Great week day offer, £5 small dishes...

This restaurant is amazing! The food is brilliant and excellent customer service. Please visit, the chicken wings are ammmazzzxing!!!

Very calming interior,smart. Several families present. Great food, excellent service. Well priced, but we found we couldn't eat all of our mains as the bowls were huge, so takeaway containers readily provided. The "large" mains could easily do 2 people. Will be back.

I'm late to the party but so glad to be introduced to this place. Really good food, excellent service and atmosphere. Go here and enjoy. Value for money too.

So impressed with this place. The service was absolutely spot on and the staff were diligent in making sure the food was free from the things I can’t eat and they were so friendly too. They catered for FODMAP intolerances (garlic, onion and wheat) which...

I think the people giving this place high reviews have never tasted decent Vietnamese food. Worst food I've had. The "pho" broth was so watery, absolutely no flavour, I wouldnt even call it Pho. And the meat was dry. I tasted my friends noodle broth...

I had the chicken pho. As always it was a healthy portion but you were not provided with additional coriander and beanshoots which I was disappointed. The soup was good but I have had most tastier pho’s with more ingredients I felt this one was...

Tried to go to mr bao in Peckham but there was an hour and a half wait for the table so I googled where else to go and banh banh came up and it was the perfect accident! The food was absolutely delicious - particularly...

I’ve had a lot of Vietnamese food and this is some of the best I’ve tasted. Zingy fresh salads and aromatic hot dishes. Relaxed but attentive service. And reasonably priced wine. Pleased to have found this place.

The food and service were absolutely incredible. This place is an absolute gem and I’ll definitely be back! Try to Bahn Tam Bi

We ate in Banh Banh Friday lunchtime. Fast efficient service although was very quiet. Food tasty with plenty of herbs. Paper rolls with tofu were beautifully moist with a sharp dipping sauce. Also had little spiced beef sausages- beef in betal leaves- with a sheet...

Had dinner here last night. It was a busy service but the staff found us a table for two anyway. We ordered spring rolls and bbq aubergine to start followed by a pho and a cari ga. Everything was really good. The staff are really...

Nice catch up with friends over delicious dinner in Banh Banh. As I understand it's a family business run by siblings. Their food reflects the dishes created by theirgrandma whilst she was a chef in Saigon during the 1940’s. We've had summer rolls and spring...

Best Pho outside Vietnam I have ever had. I have made one of my life missions to find good Pho. The spicy Hue Pho is simply amazing. Tastes the same as in Hue. What a taste travel. Great place, polite staff and good cocktails. What...

We got a table for an hour for Saturday lunch (we had not booked, but got there 1/2 hour after opening time - 12.30). Lots of families with small children, so not particularly quiet. Food was good and we particularly enjoyed the aubergine. The lemongrass...

Really cute little restaurant, feels like a bit of a hidden gem. Nice and modern inside with great service. So much choice for veggies on the menu, and all the food we had was so flavoursome. I'd particularly recommend the aubergine!

We visited at 8pm on a Sunday evening. The restaurant has an attractively warm, informal appearance. It was quiet, less than a quarter full. Our waiter told us that the restaurant was closing at 9pm which was fine; the service was prompt and attentive. We...

Really excellent food and great service. Years since I last ate Vietnamese food, so keen to try it again. Went largely with what the waitress suggested, and she proved a good guide. Not too spicy, but full of flavour - the chicken wings were one...

Recently visited with my family plus a girlfriend, heard them rave about it a number of times. Overall, we really enjoyed it but not without comment. The cocktails were excellent value at £8.00 each and the starters (chicken wings, papaya salad and grilled aubergine) all...

Thank you for opening so close to my house. Those shrimp pancakes. The betel leef beef. The jackfruit cordial. The Bun Hue. It was all insanely good. And the staff were all super lovely and helpful. We will return again, and again, and again.

This is the best Vietnamese I’ve had in London. The slow cooked pork is melt in the mouth. The aubergines were delicious. The food was served very quickly. Will definitely be going back again. My partner is gluten free and he could eat most of...

Typical vietnamese cuisine, great quality price ratio. I've been there for dinner and I am very satisfied

I had shrimp pancakes which I was dubious about ordering. They were the most heavenly mouthfuls of goodness. I wish I'd taken a photo as it was a beautiful dish to look at too. The staff were efficient and let me know how to eat...

So I worked all day and decided to go for dinner with the bestie and hubby. Was going to go somewhere else not to far away but spotted Banh Banh and thought why not. So glad I did. We had drinks next door and then...

I came here for Vietnamese food on Thursday 19th April and it honestly was one of the best Vietnamese meals I have had! We had the aubergine dish which was delicious and the homemade spring rolls! The owner is so welcoming and friendly and helped...

Restaurant setting is nice and staff are friendly however we were really disappointed with the food. Starters were ok at best; papaya salad dominated by chilli heat and not a lot else whilst chicken wings were dry and overcooked. What was really surprising was how...

The service here is really good and friendly. Food is lovely also. Really nice interior and feel with chilled atmosphere

Delicious food, would definitely recommend the curry its exquisite! really friendly staff, place can be a tad crowded but totally worth it for the fantastic food :)

Went for a family meal and it was amazing. A fantastic selection of starters and mains - especially vegetarian options - and the portion sizes were very generous. The owners were so lovely and all of the staff were friendly and accommodating. Will definitely be...

Amazing restaurant. Food is always so fresh and service is top. Be aware of a sneaky service charge to the bill. Otherwise, no complaints. Cocktails are top too!

It isn't easy finding good Vietnamese food in west London, so we were keen to try this restaurant, which was recommended by a Peckham-based friend. The menu is not very big, but this is a good sign, as it means the kitchen concentrates on a...

The food here used to be good, especially the Pho which I ordered last night. However, when it came it was disappointing, tasteless and with only a few measly scraps of chicken. It might have tasted OK to the Pot Noodle loving students all around...

Beautiful food, lovely environment and the staff were super nice, friendly and attentive! Would recommend the aubergine- it was delicious.

Love Banh Banh and have been frequently going over the past 12 months. I usually sit at the bar. The cocktails are great, esp. the Chilli Pineapple Margarita. Food excellent and often share dishes. BBQ beef in betal leaves always make me want to return....

Had dinner here with a friend who lives nearby. It was very noisy to start with as the place was full but got quieter as tie went on and people left. The service was excellent as was the food though the portions are not large....

First real Vietnamese dining experience in London, and loved it. The flavours of all of the dishes were vibrant and fresh - the aubergine was particularly amazing (we've since been inspired to re-create at home), and the coconut prawn pancakes were unlike anything I've had...

I like it here a lot, nice atmosphere, very good food with decent vegetarian options. Staff are friendly and welcoming.

We spontaneously popped into here after walking around Peckham looking for somewhere to eat and we were not disappointed. The space is deceptively larger than you think and they managed to squeeze us in without a booking which was amazing considering it was a Friday...

My wife found this restaurant and so we went after work on a Friday (so it was busy). They had a big number of staff on so the service was efficient, but friendly. Cocktails were pretty strong, you usually expect them to be mixed with...

I really wanted to like this place. But I will never go back. Problems started when we placed our order, and after ordering summer rolls we were asked if we wanted some drinks then the waitress wandered off. We hadn’t finished ordering but then another...

Another good meal at Banh Banh, this place has not disappointed yet the food is very tasty and great value too. The pulled pork dish and chicken pho are winners. The pineapple margarita was lush too. Now moved away but will return when back in...

We had dinner last Sunday at Banh Banh and was a great experience. The place is nice and welcoming and the service efficient, polite and very helpful. We ordered some starters: Prawn summer rolls and BBQ beef in betel leaves. The summer rolls were fresh...

We had a fab meal all delicious and great service. The restaurant is unpretentious and friendly with a short but interesting menu. Good value too.

You won't regret coming here, flavours are excellent, portions are good - so hard to know when trying somewhere new out. We had two larger dishes and three small plates to share and was stuffed. Aubergine was delightful, so was the pulled pork. Staff were...

Excellent Vietnamese food- some of the best in London. They have a good variety of dishes, especially sharing plates. The atmosphere has a fantastic vibe and a lovely interior. The staff are also attentive and very friendly! This is, without doubt, one of the top...

Lovely restaurant off the beaten track in peckham. It's definitely worth a visit as the food is simply amazing and at reasonable prices. Everything we (5 people) tried was simply great. The passion fruit pavlova is highly recommended! So are the pancakes with shrimp (although...

Good vibes, decently priced, friendly service and lush food. Recommend trying the coconut pancakes. Perfect setting for date night

2 of us went for a midweek supper....prawn dumplings were fine, pork skewers also....pancakes were not great and the pho was all noodles and no chicken...and lacked depth if flavour....it just doesn't seem to do it for us....this was our second visit...we may try again....at...

Service a bit haphazard, friendly for sure but serving food and then the plates a few minutes later after we had managed to drizzle the table is a bit daft. Maybe it's just me but as soon as anyone starts by saying we suggest sharing,...

Visiting London for the weekend and Banh Banh had been recommended by a few people. Ordered a lot of food as it all sounded so good and it didn't disappoint! Would go back if we come back to the area. Service was relaxed but staff...

Shared the chicken pho and the Hue noodle broth. The flavours were so different. The Hue one is with beef and a smokey caramelised onion broth and the chicken pho was light and fragrant. Nice staff and soft drinks- Vietnamese lemonade and a rose and...

A wonderful little place! The summer toll was excellent and filled to the brim. Didn't skim on the prawns either! My beef noodles were deliciously fragrant! Best to book a table as it gets busy.

This local restaurant is always a pleasure to visit. The staff are friendly and efficient, they know their job and their menu and are great at taking you through the options. The food is so authentic as you would expect with genuine Vietnamese chefs but...

Really enjoyed all the food, everything tasted really good. The food did however come out unevenly and far apart from one another. To be fair we did tell the waiter to bring it out as it's ready, but still the food arrived slowly and apart...

A very busy restaurant that looked nice and was comfortable. The prices are reasonable and the food is delicious. The only issue we had which is why they get 4 stars and not 5 is the service was very slow, not just our table but...

We have walked past this place a few times and it has always been busy and inviting so we popped in to it try out. Excellent service with delicious food. They are also very helpful when it comes to allergies. 9/10

I recently read one of my friends raving insanely about this restaurant so I was too curious not to try it out. Boy was she right. Unpretentious, sweet, delightful & the most simple unaffected delicious food. Decently priced with some of the most gracious staff...

Our first visit to Banh Banh although it had been recommended by our daughters who live locally. Lovely Molly looked after us very well and steered us through the menu very helpfully. It's a short menu but all the same mildly bewildering for us first...

Took my wife (quite the connoisseur of vietnamese food) and daughter here. We were late for our booking, they were cool with this. Everything ordered was authentic and delicious and the staff were lovely

Nice food and a cousy place.we had a lovely time with friends, the pourcions are very good and the witress recomed us good dishes

Visited Banh Banh last night for the first time and we were very impressed. The restaurant is laid out well so although it was very busy we didn't feel squashed in or rushed out! We asked for advice on how much to order etc and...

Although they were extremely busy the night we went, can't fault the staff or the food. With the former being attentive but not overbearing and the latter being some of the best I've had in the area, will definitely be coming back!

My friend and I went to eat here a month ago after hearing lots of great things about it. I have to say, it certainly lived up to all the hype! The staff were hugely friendly and as far as Vietnamese food goes, you would...

Fantastic staff, amazing food. Absolutely nothing to fault. We will be visiting again very soon and trying everything else.

Everything we ordered was simply delicious. Papaya salad and the BBQ aubergine were favourites to start. The Bo Kho Stew was a winner. Terrific value, too.

Great atmosphere, excellent service, love the food - rice paper rolls, spring rolls, pancakes, beef dish - everyone loved the aubergine dish - even non-aubergine lovers! A great local. Good value for money too.

Lovely restaurant in Peckham Rye we visited on a Saturday evening, walked in without booking at 6pm and as we were only a party of 2 were seated straight away. Starters of bbq aubergine and sticky chicken wings were both fresh & delicious. Followed by...

Quick tasty lunch. Very hard working staff rushing around getting things done. Disappointed that Banh Mi wasn't on the lunch menu that day, but made the most of it anyway.

Tried this restaurant recently and had a great evening- good food, nice ambience and staff were knowledgeable and courteous!

Been here before, took a friend here and could not fault it. Food was exceptional to say the least and being Vietnamese, this is authentic and real Vietnamese food. Menu is small but very well thought out and diverse. Service was impeccable- not constantly bothering...

Went to this restaurant on the recommendation of one their staff as I had previously tried to dine there but the kitchens were closed for the night. Staff suggested that I return another time as the food is excellent. In the early part of February...

Starting to explore the delights of South London and came across this place. Spent Friday evening here, small restaurant, I wasn't I really enamoured with the choice of table which was just by the door but the food and service were really great, would definitely...

Four of us had dinner in this Vietnamese restaurant on a very busy Saturday evening.We loved the friendly efficient service but most of all we loved the food.It may not have a huge selection of dishes but does that really matter? We had some dishes...

We went here on a Sunday night for dinner with friends. The services was warm and efficient, and the food was really very good. I would particularly recommend the papaya salad, the pancakes and the beef in bettle leaf, although everything we had was really...

Great interior, nice cocktails selection. Nice food (not at the level of kingsland road Vietnamese) but dreadful service. Outrageously rude waiter!
