Mo' Pho: Far East Street Food in Cambridge

Noemi has provided me the best service I could ever imagine. Very attentive and polite🔥

great service from noemi today and great food.

Great food and lovely helpful service

Absolutely brilliant experience. Super friendly & helpful staff. Great food. Cool vibes. A total gem.

Great food as always and very nice service from Cathy!

The food is unfavorable at all. I've had vermicelli in Vietnam and Toronto before and this is definitely the worst I ever had in my life.

If you love Asian food, try this place the food is amazing

We’re vegan, coming here regularly, best food ever! (Cambridge branch) Thanks !

Carolina was a wonderful waitress — kind, attentive, and incredibly efficient. She took great care of us and made our dinner experience smooth and enjoyable with her warm demeanor and professionalism. We’ll definitely come back, hoping for the same lovely experience! Xo

Sat down, was looked at. Ignored for over 15mins so we left and spent our money at another venue. Shame.

We never got out prawn crackers but that understandable considering the staff was rushed off their feet. Otherwise the food was great, and the staff were friendly and accommodating!

It was delicious and very fast service and the staff where lovely

Food is great, we all loved the ice cream and beef combo. Zhea is super energetic and the service is awesome.

Lovely place and lovely service from Zhea

Great food, great place, our server Cathy was amazing and we are looking forward to coming back again!

The food is very tasty. My friend and I have a really good time in here. The staff whose name is Zhea was very friendly and supportive. Highly recommend.

good food and got a nice check back. Thanks Zhea for excellent service

The beef brisket here is brilliant (so is the capsicol). Zhea is very nice and supportive. Love here a lot

first time coming to the restaurant instead of ordering online, the vibes are impeccable, food was incredible and such fast service. Great for celiac too! Zhea was a super server, so sweet and amazing energy !!! will definitely be back <3

It was my first time visiting the Cambridge branch. This is a restaurant chain I always trust and enjoy as someone who follows a gluten-free diet. As always, the food was absolutely delicious. However, the music inside was quite loud, which made it difficult to have a conversation. I believe this may have been due to the positioning of the speakers in the dining area. That said, the staff were very friendly and helpful. I don’t know her name, but a supervisor at another restaurant kindly directed us here when we asked about a coeliac-friendly menu. Many thanks to her and the entire team.

The food was excellent and amazing service from Zhea

Had the Steak and Garlic pho, which was delicious, and the steak was very tender. Good service and Good hearty food

aza (not sure of spelling) was a great waiter! food was great!

Lia was so good !!! thank you for such good service and good !

Delicious food and very friendly staff, will definitely be coming back!

Great service (from Sante) as always. Amazing food!

Food amazing as always, our server was very attentive and explained any delays. We recommend to everyone!

I was a bit disappointed with the chicken pho it was served with just small shreds of chicken, and the noodles were slightly undercooked. Also, while I was still eating my summer rolls, a staff member came over to ask if I had finished, even though it was clear there was still food on my plate. It felt a bit rushed and took away from the experience.

Cathy was so so lovely! She was a perfect server and was very attentive and sweet! Thank you for making our evening so lovely!!

Weekly lunchtime customer. Love the rice bowls, amazing food and service as always.

£18 for a bowl of spicy chicken pho with 80kcal of extra chicken is a supreme rip off. Annoying music. I’ll never return. £2 tip automatically added.

Being a Vietnamese, perhaps I have certain expectation, plus with all good reviews on Google, I hoped the food was good but the dish “Pho - rice noodles steak” disappointed me. To be fair, the broth was good, tasted quite authentic but here comes the part that I didn’t like. The rice noodles itself were thick, hard and do not absorb broth. Because of that the noodles are a bit tasteless. I understand its nearly impossible to have fresh noodles but I highly recommend the restaurant using a different type of noodles that are thinner and cook it a bit more so it’s soft and absorb the both better. In addition, in the menu it says for the “steak”, the beef is thin sliced but it’s actually quite thick. Hope the restaurant will do better with the noodles and the “Pho” dish.

Very tasty pho brisket and chicken wings! Also excellent service from zhea! Will definitely be back for more ☺️

(Apr 2025, weekday noon) + Delicious pho, good stuff, and I don't even like Vietnamese food - Optional service charge (~10%) is added to bill by default, and you'll need to request for it to be removed

Good food and fantastic service. Zhea is also attentive and helpful.

Amazing food, service, staff! Honestly can’t beat this Pho, best one in the country. I think she’s manager Charli? She was so lovely and even though busy still took so much care of us! Can’t wait to come back.

The team here are actually amazing! The manager was fantastic at getting us a gorgeous table last minute and made us feel very comfortable. Our server John was absolutely incredible, was so smiley and friendly, also went out of their way to bring me a bib to cover my white t-shirt! A great asset to the team here and would love to come and see the team here again and have food! Thank you so much Phö Cambridge for being the best 🥰💖

Lovely food ! Brilliant location & excellent service ! The manager was really great at getting us a seat even though it was busy! John was really attentive & was lovely to talk too! A great team representing pho

We love the Wok Fried Chicken and Shrimp rice here..!

My partner and I visited to get some Pho. She is vegetarian and when we ordered made it clear then that she wanted a vegetarian chicken curry noodle soup which was acknowledged. When the food arrived, it was real chicken which was only realised when I (a meat eater) noticed it. There were no apologies from any of the 3 staff members we spoke to. Very disappointing.

A reliable chain serving Vietnam inspired food. The pho (noodle soup) is the main attraction, with a variety of modifications so you're always able to try something new. The spring rolls are crispy and delicious. There are some noodle dishes which are also good value. Decent sized portions, and some unusual beer choices. Would definitely recommend. This branch is central and gets busy - book in advance especially in the evenings at the weekend.

Great service and delicious food as always

Great food service was top notch

Lovely meal, really good food & fantastic service. It's our go to restaurant in Cambridge. Never disappoints.

I always love coming to eat at Pho, it’s one of my favourite restaurants in all of Cambridge! The atmosphere is great and so is the food. I love the playlist for music :) The service is always great, especially Abid! What a legend!

It was unreal, will bring my in-laws next time.

Wow wow wow, super spicy and super tasty. I can only extend my gratitude and thanks to Abid and the fantastic Pho team. I would wholeheartedly recommend a visit to this wonderful Vietnamese establishment.

Great food! I love the noodles and morning glory. Amazing service by Cathy!

Amazing restaurant! Carolina and the rest of the team are the best

Great to eat out and eat healthy and enjoy fresh food with amazing flavour.

Great food and a phenomenal service staff!! (served by Ben)

Leah (sp?) was great, really lovely and provided great service. Food always delicious. Music a bit too loud but atmosphere has a welcoming, friendly vibe.

Friendly and prompt service. Lovely food with a great variety of flavour and textures. A lovely place. Not much more to add on the matter!

It was my first Vietnamese experience The food was so good and the chicken was halal

Some of the best vegan food we’ve ever eaten!

Great Wok fried rice, good service

Charlie and the team looked after us as they always do!

I enjoyed my meal here. The food was tasty and the service was efficient. I was served by Carolina who is a good example for other waitresses to follow.

We came as a big 8 people group, Our server, Dante, went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed, checking in at just the right times and offering thoughtful recommendations that made our meal even better. Pho is also yummy, especially the morning glory and curry noodle soup. Highly recommended.

The waiter was so kind and made us feel so welcome, my only issue is that the music was a tad too loud. other than that, AMAZING!!!!! i recommend :)

Delicious food, swift and excellent service and a great vibe.

Be warned if you have allergies. I ordered chicken curry and the food arrived labelled as chicken on the deliveroo order (the container and bag) but had prawns. No full refund given of my meal and order despite thus being phos fault. This is a food standard agency ‘no - no’ and for those with allergies potentially life threatening. I spent over an hour trying to sort this out last night at Pho and deliveroo and have received nothing

Fantastic food and a great atmosphere.

Almost everything is gluten free

We've eaten here twice today, both times our servers have been great! I didnt catch the guys name at lunch, but Vanessa served us in the evening. Service was super friendly and efficient, food was amazing both times to! Highly reccomend it here!

Eve was a lovely host - food always yum!

Food was delicious and the service even better

This is the first time I have tried Vietnamese food. Honestly, the food is very delicious. The restaurant is clean and the food is very delicious. The food arrived quickly, especially the service provided by the Tunisian waiter. He helped us choose the food and was very nice. Honestly, I give the restaurant 10/10 and I will definitely come back soon.

If you ask me why I come to Pho often, I might say because it has some of the best food in England, but if you asked me the real reason why I come to Pho in Cambridge, well it's because of the greatest waitress I have had the pleasure of interacting with during my time here in England. Her name is Sez and you would be lucky to have her. She can make you smile any day of the week, and is focused on giving you the greatest dine-in experience. I love her, and I'm sure you will too!

sooo delicious, amazing service as always!! lovely spot :)

Wonderful meal, great staff and atmosphere. Been here many times and it's always great.

Lia - really lovely lady, was really patient with us and made sure to check up on us throughout the meal. Overall great service!

I went to Pho after work and the food was amazing! Cathy was super servicial and friendly.

Best spring rolls I've ever had! Great food!

Food was so yummy and service was impeccable . Sez did a great job with the recommendation.

Dante was a great waiter and the food was tremendous.

Music was a little loud but the food was lovely

The music doesn’t fit the ambience ! But everything else is first class service , food , drink , surroundings !!!

Food was great, portions generous, and Cathy was helpful and delightful

shoutout to Susan for the lovely service and recommendations🤭will be back again 💜

Service was fab, Susan was fantastic!

Susan was amazing! She's a star! Really kind and helpful, I would probably come back just for hehe (the food is incredible too hihi)

Lovely little place, food was amazing! Shoutout to Carolina for fabulous service :)

The food we had was amazing, especially the fish starters, and our server (Dante) was fantastic.

Food is amazing as usual. Dante was terrific!

Nice place with delicious food. I love it!

Have been many times before, love this food, always fresh and absolutely delicious. Here for Mother’s Day today and Lia, our server, was a superstar—friendly, funny, helpful, hardworking. One of our party described the food as “yummy”—I agree but as much as I’d like to say it was our toddler, it was my husband. Highly recommended, and do book because it’s busy.

Lia was a fantastic waitress. Great food and service.

Nice place, quick and easy. Only 2x minor comments, starter and main courses came together...odd. The starter of chicken wings had absolutely no flavour...just fried.

Dante with the great memory gave us great service!

My mother and I went to have lunch at Pho, Cambridge last week for the first time. We were seated at a window table in a small room off to the side of the main restaurant. My mother sat against the wall and I sat opposite. A speaker was playing obscenely loud music from a speaker that was mounted directly above my mother’s head. The waitress, who was very friendly, got us some water and left us to study the menu. Neither my mother nor I could hear each other discussing the food options over the music blaring over us. When the waitress returned to take our orders, she also struggled to hear us. A sound, like an alarm, suddenly began wailing over the speaker. I looked up at it and asked, “what is that? Is that a fire alarm?” She sheepishly replied, “no, it’s just this song”, and rolled her eyes. It disgusted me that the restaurant would choose a song which included a sound effect associated with emergencies to play in a public place where customers could be disturbed by emergency noises or mistakenly believe them to be genuine. Please be mindful, there are diners with disabilities, hearing aids, autism, and young children. I cannot believe that whoever chose the playlist had had the sense to think that this song might be inappropriate for a relaxed eating place where one can engage in pleasant conversation without being upset, frightened. We ordered despite all this because we were both hungry. I got a tofu and vegetable rice bowl and my mother got a chicken soup. I was horrified at how unbelievably salty my dish was when it arrived. The rice was soggy and saturated in a sauce that had no other discernible flavour besides MSG. The tofu was similarly sopping wet with the same salty sauce. I couldn’t eat my meal it was so bad. My mother’s soup consisted of a broth, rice noodles, and some chewy, overcooked chicken. In other east Asian restaurants in Cambridge, including Vietnamese restaurants, the soups would at least come with some pak choi or spring onion, but this was just noodle water. Although her soup wasn’t oversalted, she had to spit out the chicken because it was so tough that it got stuck in her throat. Neither of us wanted to finish the food it was so applauding. We told the waitress who was very apologetic. She called her manager who asked us what the problem was. When we explained about the food, he was unfortunately very defensive and insisted that the food is checked for quality every four hours. I asked him if he had personally tasted it today and he only said repeated that “we taste it every four hours.” As a side note, we arrived at twelve in the afternoon. The restaurant opens at twelve, which means that they would have tasted that batch at eight in the morning. When he saw that we were still unhappy and hadn’t found his explanation satisfactory, he became passive aggressive and said, “well, no one else has complained.” I note again that the restaurant only opened at twelve p.m. which is exactly when we arrived to eat. It’s highly unlikely many people would have finished their meals and complained within the quarter–of–an–hour to twenty minutes we were in there. Regardless, this was an extremely poor attempt to save face and left me feeling ignored and belittled. He disappeared after that. We intended to pay the bill even though we were unhappy. We called over the waitress for the bill when she informed us that the bill had been taken care of as a courtesy and she once again apologised. We appreciate that the manager stepped up and did the right thing, but I left feeling very embarrassed and upset about the whole affair. I will NEVER return to this restaurant again.

Fab food and service. Prices are very decent considering it's central location. We left feeling very full.

One of my favourite places in Cambridge, always tasty food, nice atmosphere and lovely staff.

Dante was great and very welcoming. Food was good as usual

They didn't allow me to have my date. i felt so stripped from my dignity. not cultural sensitivity 😔

Always a pleasure - friendly staff & great fast service + delicious food!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

Lovely chilled evening with great service. Will come again 🤩

Danté was our server and he was phenomenal. Gave so many excellent food recommendations and didn’t mess up a single order in our party of 7. Very attentive and friendly.

We love coming here with our dog. The staff are amazing and super friendly even during the busiest times! The food is always 10/10 but it's the welcoming atmosphere that keeps us coming back!

Dante is the MAN! And the food is great too!
