Pho in Reading

Always good food, chicken curry is spot on every time I come here. Great service from Annie - thank you very much for being so attentive.

The food and service is amazing. Thank you to Annie for being very attentive and caring. The chicken curry with rice is my favorite meal to have here. Definitely recommend.

Most expensive bowl of water I’ve ever had Mid food, bad tables, Marugame clears and it’s not even close.😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

lovely place and Aadarsh was so attentive and helpful as our server, really recommend the classic tofu curry! Will be coming back

The food at this restaurant is absolutely delicious, and every dish is full of flavor. The service is also exceptional, with Aadarsh, the staff member, being incredibly friendly and attentive. His thoughtful and warm attitude made the dining experience even more enjoyable. Both the food and the service exceeded my expectations—highly recommended!

Our first experience of Vietmanese food. Venue quite noisy and like most restaurants now , the side door has a regular stream of deliveroo type drivers. Try not to sit near this door. Table slightly sticky and bar surfaces covered in crumbs. Wine used in spritzer definitely sharp but otherwise good range of juices on offer. Food arrives quickly though getting western cutlery was slow if you are struggling with chopsticks. Staff clear the tables for the next day and bag the bins etc when customers are still present in the restaurant. No environmental health scores visible on door. Staff very polite and managers obviously doing their job well.

Food was OK. The main gripe is they don't take cash payments. So we will reduce our visits there. Shame really.

Easy online booking system and you can call to add extra people if needed. Good am ambience and location. Excellent service and delicious food with lots of different things to try. Reasonable pricing. Staff friendly and helpful.

My first visit to a Pho, Service was efficient and friendly, food was good and good value for money too! One to return to, lots of new flavours to try.

I was been Cheltenham pho and Liverpool pho but I prefer Reading pho is the best The best food and best quality service Thanks chef Sergio and all the team. I hope I will back again soon

Food absolutely delicious, knowledgeable staff to talk you through the menu, good sized portions and lovely variety.

We wery often go to Pho Reading. It's always good. Food great value for money in view of how packed it is with flavor. We have always liked the staff, relaxed but attentive when needed. We will be going back soon and many more after.

The food was tasty,cute restaurant, but was let down by the manager, who was smoking at the front of the restaurant when we arrived. She had a phone on her which continually rang (very loud) she alsi shouted about goung to the shops and bringing back chocolate for the staff, we shouldn't have been aware of all this. We felt like we we're in the way. She apologised and offered a discount which we didn't accept as it wasn't about the money. We wouldn't go back as the whole experience was not relaxing, which is a shame because the food was delicious

Well, I could comment on how friendly and helpful the staff is, the great vibe, AMAZING dishes - this menu might have the most item I find delicious among places I visited - but instead I am just going to say this: this week I dined here 6 times! :) …try out the place and you might end up beating my record! :)

Wonderful place for having lunch,the meal was delicious. The curry was very tasty!!! Our waitress was Margarita who assist us incredible., It was the first time that we was in Pho, so we will repeat.

The food was really good but the waitress was extremely rude and had an awful attitude, totally ruined our experience and has put me off returning.

We had a lovely meal at Pho, an elegant, easygoing eatery in the Village arcade.. I started with the wings, which were excellent. Followed by a main dish of beef brisket pho, a big soupy bowl of pulled beef, veg, and flat noodles. I spiced it up perfectly with the chilli oil condiment and soy sauce. All very tasty and filling. And set off with some Beavertown Neck Oils. Staff were magnificent: a charming, cheerful young waiter and waitress, and a brilliant supervising lady.

We ordered for delivery and spent about £70 and it arrived and had missing items and also all the spring rolls were completely burnt and inedible. If the person cooking allows this to be sent out they obviously do not care at all. Very disappointing.

I love vietnamese food and I've visited many locations of Pho in London, but today I'm r3ally disappointed. We wanted to have a nice dinner after a long day in Bristol. But... We've ordered morning glory and spring rolls. The morning glory was undercooked and salty. For mains Noodles and Curry soup and Wok fried noodles and beef. The noodles was undercooked and cold and the fried one emreally oily. The chef in the front of the kitchen was eating all the time and at the same time touching the food. I think that's a really disgusting practice. We didn't finished our food. One more thing, guys someone needs to clean the toilets they are really smelly. For the service I don't have any complaints, the Asian waitress was friendly and polite.

Nice food, excellent service.. peace and quiet . It remained me other Asian meals wich I know and love. I think it’s good quality and affordable prices

Great for coeliacs ! Nearly every menu item was gluten free (only 2 items contained gluten) and the staff were really knowledgeable. The food also tasted fabulous. Service was quick, friendly and discreet. Highly recommended whether you’re coeliac or not. Booking recommended in the evenings...

the portion is very huge, all tastes soure, a lot of fresh vegetables, the chicken in the salad is simply boiled not roasted. Tastes simple and tasty, but nothing special.

100% recommend visiting Pho! Fantastic food full of flavour, the staff so friendly and attentive and the general atmosphere of the restaurant is comfy and warm. Would fully recommend to friends and family without a doubt, the fact it’s packed on a cold Tuesday night...

Have been meaning to go here for ages and finally got around to it this evening. All I can say is why did we leave it so long? The food was wonderful. The starters in particular are so good that when I next eat there...

Outstanding service from Mishel and Clyde! Exceptional freshly cooked food and everything soooooo tasty! Can’t wait for my next date-night at Pho!!!

Very nice place, Spaska is amazing and friendly! The atmosphere is cozy and all of us feel welcomed!

Booked a table for four for my Mum’s birthday celebration last night and had a really great evening. I don’t normally review restaurants, and certainly never unprompted, but we had such good service I felt compelled to do so. I’m really surprised to see some...

Came to Pho at 4:45 for dinner, was pretty empty and got seated straight away. Took a while to have our oder taken, probably around 15 minutes from when we were seated without even being spoken to at all. When we finally did get served...

Great pho, highly recommended. Meatballs and the baby squids are my favourite. Don’t miss a cocktails! Great location

Been there a few times since it opened and really enjoyed it. However today it was a new low. I ordered the veg summer roles and they were OK. A lot smaller than before (and I'm saying they were very small) and more expensive. We...

Pho in Reading used to be OK but now they do not take legal tender (cash). Bank card payments only. This alone is enough to make me never return. However, even the main courses are now like starters. If you want to get a good...

Superb place, better than Oracle choices! Stopping over at Reading we headed into the centre to find a place to eat. Naturally ended up at the Oracle and nothing grabbed us. So we ended up here and so glad we did. All waiters super attentive...

Terrific staff, very welcoming and very attentive, a credit to the management team. The food is wonderful, so full of flavour and again the staff are on hand with recommendations to make the dining experience the best.

As a reguar customer at Pho in Reading, I have to say the food is always delicious and the service is excellent. Apostolos is always welcoming and friendly All the staff are friendly and helpful. Nothing is too much trouble. this is my favourite restuarant...

The food here is super yummy. The portions are pretty big which makes it value for money. We highly recommend the spring rolls, they are delicious! Let down is we tried some of the cocktails and they were ok.

We used to go there quite a lot before covid & the food was nice & fresh. But unfortunately not any more. I understand that some things like broth have to be pre-cooked but this time everything was pre-cooked and slapped together to create the...

This was my first visit to Pho & must say I enjoyed the food & the whole dining experience. The staff were friendly & even took the time to explain to a newbie about the way food is served with extra herbs/spices added on a...

It was our first ever pho experience. The staff were really lovely and helpful explaining how to eat the food. We are not really into asian food and neither me or my partner had Vietnamese food. We were not really a fan of the summer...

Visited Pho for the first time this lunchtime and it was fabulous! The staff were really friendly and engaging and the food was excellent and so reminiscent of Vietnam. I just wish they did the banh xeo for lunch!

I had a delicious lunch in the restaurant and i am impressed how they increased the quality of food abd staff. The soups are amazing and the rice too. I want to thank you especially Chloe for her work and she proved always know how...

Nasty brown bits of lettuce instead of a lovely fresh side of herbs. Some of screens between tables, at head level, were filthy and smeared. Over the last couple of years I have been impressed with the approach and trusted in the cleaning etc. Disappointed...

We saw this place was really busy, and thought we will give it a go! The staff were helpful and sat us down, that’s where it changed there was limited beverages, and some food off the menu, so we asked their advice, and made our...

Wonderful food and super fast. The majority of the menu is gluten free and the staff understands what you need too. As a vegetarian who has to eat a gluten free diet it can be really hard eating out but Pho is brilliant, tasty and...

My absolute favourite place!!! I could say im a bit obsessed Love eveything about the place never been disappointed. Even had it delivered and tell you what wow!! The packaging is so good it keeps the noodles out of the broth so they dont over...

Excellent food and brilliant service! Literally the most delicious meal I have had in a long time. I probably won't not have picked Pho from walking past however it is fantastic

The staff smoking outside the front door isn’t appealing whatsoever. Alongside my food arrived in 5 minutes and wasn’t even hot, making me think it had been pre made and sat there. Lacklustre service too. I’m a restaurant manager and was disappointed to experience this

Very nice friday evening, even when it was extremely busy. Staff very friendly, they were flying around and special thanks to Zuzana for taking care of us and her help with what to order. Food delicious and size was very good as well. My first...

Tasty food, ordered starters and main. Service was not great though. Staff were a little rude and dismissive when asked questions about the menu.

There were eight of us, including two children and three of us were unhappy with our meal. Two of us had the crab noodle soup. Advertised as a hiouse special. It was disappointing . Although the broth was tasty, as far as I could see,...

1. you need to book it during weekends. Its full 2. Might look crowded, but all this separations are actually good, not only covid, but also noise. 3. Food is good, 4/5. 4. Sizes are LARGE. 5. See you next week, for sure

Food and atmosphere good Bit surprised at an 11% service charge already added to bill . Way over the top , even if was a white linen table - which it is not . Staff friendly and attentive and good town centre venue

I visited the restaurant yesterday at about 1 pm. Since the restaurant was quite busy, I stood for a while which was fine by me. The manager then took me to one of the tables and told me that he would be with me soon....

Visited here today on a whim after staff at The Real Greek were their usual rude selves. What a contrast. Walked in to be greeted with a cheery ‘hi’, were shown to a table straight away even though they were fairly busy. Great food, very...

I visited Pho on Thursday at lunch time and was extremely impressed by the fabulous service. Margherita was incredibly helpfu, polite and friendly. The cari chicken was absolutely delicious. It was wonderful to meet up with Thomas and I cannot stress enough how excellent the...

I visited Pho today for the first time with 2 others to celebrate my friend's 60th birthday. The staff were very welcoming, they explained the menu to us and made recommendations for the meat eaters and our one vegetarian. They allowed us plenty of time...

We came for a family meal on a Friday early evening. There was a pleasant friendly atmosphere and they’d opened the windows to allow a gentle breeze (it was a warm evening). The waitress recognised that we were choosing Plant-Based dishes and talked us through...

Seriously though, if you haven't been there yet, you totally should. Not only the food is amazing, but the staff is also great too! Especially the smiley Zuzana, who made sure our evening was amazing. Hope you guys are paying her enough for being so...

It was our first time eating at Pho and it hopefully won't be our last. We came here because of the extensive choice of vegan food. Who'd of thought you could get vegan prawn crackers? We both had huge bowls of ramen type food and...

cooked fresh all day they try very hard to meet customers allergen and diet requirements. small steps on entrance otherwise flat. food quick and good as was service.

About the 4th time I've been here with my partner and we've never had a bad experience. Last night we were waited on by Aaron who greeted us with a smile and made sure we were always seen to and had what we needed, all...

I’ve been here multiple times with my partner and every time they do not disappoint. Amazing food and atmosphere and the staff were lovely, they are always so accommodating. Highly recommend :)

The noodles were very tasty be were of the Thai chilly! very spicy. I went to pho with mum i had the pho noodle bowl with spicy chicken it was very tasty.

Just took my partner here as she has wanted to since lockdown had lunchtime menu prawn crackers and a main. They were very careful with the preparation and serving of our meals to ensure no cross contamy as she has severe allergy to citrus (which...

Went to Pho 1st October 2020 to sample their £9.95 lunch deal - had the chicken curry which was charged and extra £1 for - prawn crackers, chicken curry & spicy lemonade - delicious and great value! The staff were very welcoming and pleasant

It is so great to be back at Pho again and we were really impressed with their safeguarding measures which seemed particularly thorough, with tables very well spaced. The staff were so welcoming and friendly and we loved the new weekday lunchtime menu which is...

Entré para una cena para 1: estaba muy ocupado, pero el chico de la puerta fue muy hospitalario y logró conseguirme una mesa (¡incluso con un enchufe para mi computadora portátil!). Gran servicio y ambiente, me sentí muy cuidado y la comida era increíble. ¡Terminé ordenando más lados después del principal ya que era tan bueno! Gracias Team Pho x

Primera vez en el restaurante, comida a un precio razonable y deliciosa. Me gusta el hecho de que no hay muchas opciones en el menú. La calidad de la comida fue excelente y el servicio fue muy rápido.La única razón por la que esto no ha recibido 5 estrellas, habíamos pedido 3 veces con 3 personas diferentes para recibir la factura, si estuviera mejor controlado sobre esa base, con mucho gusto me daría 5 estrellas.Me encantará volver y probar más el menú.

A well presented modern restaurant. Friendly Staff. A good choice for those who want something spicy. Obviously fresh ingredients. I enjoyed my meal, so will be back.

Fuimos en noviembre de 2019 y tuvimos una experiencia encantadora. Los entrantes llegaron rápido, eran de pato y rollitos de primavera y estaban riquísimos, sin embargo el plato principal tardó un rato (aproximadamente una hora y media) y perdimos nuestro pedido en la cocina, pero nos dio un 15% de descuento por eso. Fue comida encantadora (grandes porciones) y una gran atmósfera.

Pensaría que almorzaría en un nuevo restaurante. - lugar de apertura cuando empezamos a salir del encierro. Todavía solo para llevar. Se anuncia como comida callejera vietnamita, por lo que parecía apropiado. Compré panecillos de verano y una limonada picante. Buena comida. Parecía saludable. Porciones muy pequeñas. Apenas cambio de un billete de diez. No estoy seguro de que me apresure a regresar.

Oh, Dios mío, una vez más Pho supera las expectativas muy altasYo podría . . . Y quiero comer esto todos los días.Todavía estamos encerrados. Pho abrió su puerta para comida para llevar el viernes, nos quedamos atrapados en el trabajo hasta tarde, así que no logramos conseguir un pho como estaba planeado, aunque obtuvimos uno el sábado. . . Ahora es martes y aquí estamos de nuevo.Encantador.Una comida para llevar que es saludable pero TAN SABROSA y satisface cualquier antojo que tengamos.La variedad de opciones veganas es más que impresionante, pero siempre nos atraen los mismos platos increíbles.Mi pedidoRollitos de primavera de verduras crujientesBollo de fideos con rollitos de primaveraOrden de jenstofu picante y pho pho de fideos con champiñones.Y galletas sin gambasMmm.PHO, ¿ME PATROCINARÁS PARA COMER MÁS TU COMIDA? . . . . . . ?

Viajo a Londres y he trabajado al borde de la escena del café vietnamita en Clerkenwell. Dada la presunta competencia, la comida es vibrante, fresca y es un buen reflejo de los platos de su tierra natal.En un momento de debilidad, imaginé algunos panecillos de arroz con salsa agridulce, hierbas y ensalada. Hace unos años tuve una ensalada de papaya verde en Pho en Clerkenwell, y fue un intento creíble, dado que es el Reino Unido, no tropical, etc. Hace un par de meses estuve en Hanoi, así que no tuve presión.Así que entré en Pho en Reading para obtener mi solución, eligiendo el análogo más cercano en el menú. Cuando me quejé de la falta de hierbas frescas como se especifica en el menú, una excavación forense aseguró revelar los varios mm2 de cilantro fresco. Entonces, técnicamente, estaban presentes.Me trajeron un plato lleno de hierbas con explicación, y estaban bien. Las empanadas de cerdo eran de muy mala calidad, te puedes imaginar el tipo. Comí algunos y pesqué el resto. Tenía hambre, así que me comí los brotes de soja y los fideos en la salsa + además de cualquier baba que habían aportado las albóndigas.Entonces, ¿qué volví a aprender? Solo porque hace unos años en un área con competencia, una cadena puede producir alimentos decentes no se sostiene donde está solo. No me cobraron, aunque estaba feliz de pagar para volver a aprender las lecciones y no fue mucho dinero. Normalmente evito tales lugares, y es bueno tener la lección reforzada. Creo que es justo decir que proviene de Pho desde sus raíces.Espero que sea un juego de palabras cruzado, pero mi ignorancia del vietnamita es bastante total, con excepciones limitadas. Me atendré al nexo de Clerkenwell y sus ramificaciones locales en el futuro.

Hemos estado muchas veces, y desde nuestra visita a la calle 1, nos impresionó la calidad del servicio y la comida. El personal es realmente amable y amigable. Da mucha atención a los clientes, explica todos los platos con detalles, acomoda gustos, especias, alergias, nada es difícil para ellos. El personal siempre saluda al cliente con una gran sonrisa. Y haz lo mismo cuando te vayas. Comidas muy relajadas, no te apresuran ni te molestan cada 5 minutos. Muy recomendable después de comprar para el almuerzo a media tarde. Ojalá lo hagamos con mis hijos una vez al mes.

Fui con mi esposa y lo primero que notamos cuando entré fue el olor. Realmente despertó nuestros dos apetitos. El servicio fue muy amable y explicaron el menú excelentemente. Tuve el combo Pho bo que me calentó en esta noche fría. El sabor nunca salió de mi boca, si no estuviéramos tan llenos, ambos acordamos que habríamos tenido otra comida después. Totalmente inesperado la factura barata para una comida de tan buena calidad!

Wow, just Wow! What a find, never tasted food like it, every mouthful was a delight. The three meat feast sticky rice was a meal out of this world. I plan going back, many times.

Myself and partner came on valentine's day. I booked a table for 7.30 however we arrived early, not a problem at all . Food was super delicious and GF HAPPY Valentine's day it was.

Worth every single penny ! Staff were incredibly helpful and nice, huge selection of freshly made drinks (recommend the apple mint lime and ginger juice) Students get 15% off too Had beef pho, packed full of so much flavour will definitely be coming here again !

Great lunch on a first time visit with my girlfriend. Staff were very informative & professional yet relaxed. Had the veggie spring rolls & baby squid to share. Very tasty & light. Girlfriend had the King Prawns with vermicelli. I had the King Prawns in broth. Light & fresh & really delicious. A lovely find. Very reasonably priced too. Thank you to the team

Good food. Good service. Arrived at 730pm on Tuesday evening. Plenty of tables available. Ambience was Convivial.

We enjoyed a Monday evening dinner with our daughter who is at the University. We were served quickly and efficiently, the waitress was able to identify the meals with fish and seafood which one of us is allergic to. The meal was very similar to Wagamama but I would definitely return.

A lovely place to grab a quick lunch if you like Vietnamese food! The staff are attentive and explain the menu, deals and specials options that are available. They're more than willing to make recommendations and also give advice on how best to customize your dish to your liking. I went for lunch and got a lunch deal of a starter and main for £10.50. I had pork spring rolls followed by spicy chicken pho and it was delicious; just the right level of heat (although there was still the option to up the ante with some chopped chillies and sweet chilli sauce, if desired). I hadn't had vietnamese coffee since I was in Vietnam but had completely forgotten how much I love it; I can highly recommend! So glad that there is a Pho restaurant back in my home town too!

We visited Pho and the main meals were good, with standard main meal price but even though we had some issues with the desserts, the customer service was really brilliant and the issues were all solved in the end. Would recommend a visit :)

I had a busy day shopping and was served by a wonderful team at Pho restaurant, I was so tired that I was seated immediately and was able to be served with efficiency and kindness. I was able to select a starter and a main course with ease and was guided through my allergies by the waitress at the time. I was very impressed with her speed, knowledge and experience of allergy and she eluded to a vegan menu and an allergy reference guide. I informed her that I had not formally been tested but I would like to avoid sea food if possible. The quality of the meal was excellent and well presented, I can see that a lot of thought went into it and the presentation of the starters and the mains was impressive. All in all, a pho-tastic experience.

We all loved it! The food was delicious and vegan friendly, the service was fantastic, it’s a great location- the only minor niggle we had was it was on the cold side where we were sat but that absolutely won’t stop us coming back soon!!

Had a lovely meal here with colleagues this evening. They dealt really well with my allergy. Delicious rice bowl. Will definitely be visiting again.

Looking for a gluten free place for my colleague, we found this vietnamese place. With a new style touch plus delicious cocktails, a Southestern experience at the heart of rainy England

Nice enough food, if you don’t like big bowls of soup type food then the menu is somewhat limited. Starters were great. Staff are friendly & helpful. Service was a little slow, maybe due to being busy Saturday night, manager was attentive & seemed to be keeping an eye on staff but even so I had to get up to ask for bill & then to pay

Enjoyed another delicious meal at Pho - I loved the chicken curry and my daughter had her favourite Super Green Pho. Great atmosphere on a Friday evening and good service.

The staff and the general ambience were very good; However the baby squid starter could only be described as a load of tiny fragments of whatever (?) Battered and deep fried with a rather inadequate dip made with half a lime dribbled onto some strange white powder (I'm hoping wasn't monosodium glutamate) it was ok; But the dip only lasted halfway through the squid bits. I had the king prawn broth for the main and for 12 pounds I expected more than 5 prawns in a rather large bowl of glorified in pot noodles served with a side plate of uncut herbs that when added to the broth made the main very difficult to eat with the provided spoon and chopsticks. Eventually half way through the main I asked for a fork which made things easier; But the food was cold. The flavours were good; But could have rustled up the main at home for less than 3 pounds

Ate at Pho with a colleague for an early dinner. The service was speedy and the service good. We chose Spring Rolls to start and curry for main course, both of which were excellent.

What an absolute delight it was to eat here, the vietnamese pancakes where a real treat and great fun to share, the pho itself was tasty and plenty of it, Banana fritter with coconut ice cream was pretty damn good too. But I loved the coffee with condensed milk, as this was a first for me I can say what a truly tasty beverage. But to top it all of the staff are friendly passionate about their work . A nice little gem in Reading

Tried Pho for the first time tonight. The crispy rolls, and summer rolls were both beautiful. The chicken Vietnamese curry was outstanding. I would totally recommend this place

My boyfriend and I came here for dinner and it was one of our best nights out. Staff is so friendly, and food is so tasty! We will definitely come again!

My second time being here, first with coworkers and second with my partner. Both times have been phenomenal!

That was a truly amazing experience for me and my friends. The food was really tasty and the staff was friendly, kind and willing to help us choose the best for our prefers. Can't wait to come soon.

Waited 20 minutes to be offered a drink, took a further 10 minutes to be told they didn't have a certain spirit, ended up leaving to curt apologies. Explaining there was a long wait or an attempt to make amends would have been appriciated.

Ate here on a Saturday night for the first time. excellent food, it wash fresh tasty and hot. Staff were very friendly, helpful and very passionate with their knowledge and advice. Highly recommend their cocktails too.

All we ordered was VG (veggie and vegan). the spring rolls are the best ever. then, the cury rice, the com tam tofu and veg with cauliflower rice - Awesome!... Then the classic Pho nam rom... Kids portion were good size. Fast and good service. Friendly atmosphere. Awesome experience, even with 2 kids! Go and you wont regret!

We had a lunch stop yesterday at Pho. We were sat quickly but the staff member who sat us didn’t bring any menus. What seemed to be the manager sitting close saw this after a while and quickly bought them over and explained the menu to us. We waited a while to have our orders taken and again the manager took it from us. We went for the lunch special. The starters came out quick and were very nice. The mains followed and were tasty! I had the chicken curry and my fiancé the fried rice. The staff were very nice but the one that sat us kept aimlessly wondering around then pulling his phone out before heading out back. The new girl who gave us the bill and took our payment was very prompt and bubbly. Overall we had a good experience and enjoyed the food.

Had an amazing lunch on the 2 course set menu. Really like how they serve a plate of spices and aromatics so you can cater your pho to just how you like
