Viet 2 Go in Croydon

Sin pretensiones Vietnamita cafetería - restaurante en el mercado de Surrey Street, Croydon, sur de Londres, a pocas puertas de The Dog & Bull. Comida sabrosa. Valor decente. Dale una oportunidad. Volveré por más y descubriré qué es el 'Té de burbujas'.

Hace poco pedí de Banh mi Vietnam - que parece ser este lugar. Pedí la ensalada fría de fideos de langostinos y mi compañero el banh mi de ternera. Ambos eran excelentes y amplios en tamaño. También probamos sus rollitos de primavera que estaban deliciosos.

Order arrived wrong and beef was tough and tasteless like supermarket cold sandwich beef and pho was bland even with chilli oil. However the main issue was poor service which disputed wrong order, refused to rectify it and my partner feeling uncomfortable said its OK even though it wasn't. If the waitress doesn't want to work in service industry then leave. And to the company stop charging customers cash only before they eat. You are either doing it to avoid poor service issues or tax avoidance and neither is ok. The food wad so poor and bland it was first time I did not finish meal

To be honest, I am not a fan of Vietnamese food because Hongkongized Vietnamese food has put me off it especially the cloyingly sweet broths which are a recipe for disaster but loved by the locals there. Anyway, went to Viet2go for pho which was recommended by someone as they said the broth was very hydrating. Ordered two pho noodles, one was Tofu and the other was Rare Beef where both broths are the same. The beef was surprisingly good and I liked the way they were thinly sliced. The tofu was to my liking as it was lightly fried on the outside. However the star of the show was the BBQ pork Bahn Cuon, again the bbq pork was thinly sliced like bacon with the belly cut which was enjoyable as it was not too dry or tough. The bahn cuon had this lovely thin and elastic texture so as a whole it was so tasty with the crispy garlic and shallot toppings. Also had the summer roll but I thought they were a bit plain as it was like 20% avocado and pork and the rest was noodle and salad.

I’ve had my eye on this place for a while and finally decided to get a takeaway this past weekend. I chose some prawn summer rolls and a veg spring roll salad. Both came to £15 which is a lot (plus delivery charges of course). The food was fresh but everything was bland. The summer rolls were nothing special and the spring rolls were not what I expected. I’ve had Vietnamese rolls before and they were nothing like these. There were soy and peanut sauces provided with my items but they did not help to liven anything up. The peanut sauce was also very underwhelming in flavour. The salad was just a few sliced bits of veg and plain, boiled noodles. I would not order from here again.

Auténtico, simple, a un precio razonable y limpio. Necesitamos más restaurantes como este en Croydon. Volveremos

Siempre deliciosa comida vietnamita fresca y auténtica. Pho particularmente bueno he probado algunos platos y todos han sido deliciosos.

This is somewhere I'd wanted to try for a while. We arrived to an empty cafe, nice simple set up and big windows looking out on to the street. Radio playing in background was a mild irritation. We picked a table then my friend popped off to the loo while I sat down. The waitress called to me from the counter about 20 seconds later to ask if I was ready to order. Seemed odd as one of us was absent and I'd barely shed my coat nor had time to look at the seemingly non-existent menu. I pointed out that there were no menus and she indicated that they were on the counter. Why not on the table? No idea. OK, not scoring so high for service - something this place needs to look at. Having got the menus, I was intrigued to try the bubble tea. This was fine but came served in disposable plastic containers (with plastic straw). Surely a conventional mug or cup could be provided? Main course, chosen from the thankfully short and simple menu, was the Prawn Pancake and Fish Tomato Stew Rice. I can report that both were pretty good and chef evidently knows what they are doing. A second annoyance was disposable chopsticks. Would it be so hard to have proper ones and avoid the waste? Would I go again? Actually yes. Despite the irritations the food is decent and the place is good value.

Un ristorantino accogliente su uno dei più bei quartieri di Londra, staff preparato e gentile. Un ricco menù che offre piatti della cucina vietnamita accuratamente preparati. Si tratta di porzioni abbondanti, dai sapori ricercati che appunto per la qualità presentano dei prezzi un pò alti. Ottimo ristorante per coloro che apprezzano la buona cucina.

For Croydon - this is quite an expensive place, not amazing venue to sit in and I did not thing amazing food. There is much better available in Croydon.

i love vietnamese food so was very pleased to find this place near to home. the food is very tasty and so reasonably priced. the banh mi is particularly good as is the Bun Hue

I’m surprised how good quality, fresh and huge portions I had in this place. Nice that it’s a vegetarian/vegan option for all kinds of meals in the menu. I had a spring rolls with avocado and tofu (delicious and bigger than I expected) and vegetarian Pho soup - deep flavour, fresh ingredients - I’m very satisfied after this meal. I will be there soon to check more!

We often eat in this little cafe in Surrey Street Market. Love their noodle soups and the most beef stew is so tasty. Excellent value and thoroughly recommended.

Great food, reasonably priced. Provided quickly, the place is always packed at lunch as it's popular and a healthy option. The guy behind the counter is playing games on his phone most of the time, must be bored. He's friendly and helpful though.

So I love it here. Food is great. Freshly cooked, and all veggie options are vegan here... I try to eat here where possible. I am not even mad at the Cash Only policy.

I've been here quite a few times, the food is good. The pho is definitely not authentic and the spring rolls aren't that great. However i do enjoy the mixed meat banh mi and the noodle salad with the spicy pork. Don't forget to order the bubble tea, it's great! The guy at the counter should smile a but more and be a little friendlier. It doesn't seem that he wants to be there.

You have to remember that in essence this place is a cafe on the market it Croydon. Its quite small inside with about 20 seats. Fairly small menu and counter service. I ordered the chicken summer rolls and the pork Vietnamese salad. The salad was better than the summer rolls. I felt that the wrapping on the summer rolls was too chewy. The salad was pretty good but im not sure the ratio of noodles to other ingredients was quite right. Vietnamese tea was good. Im not saying its rubbish ive just had better but only in central London.

I was taken to this delightful little place one lunch time with a valued friend of mine , and it was for a birthday treat for her. Its really lovely , we had a bowl of noodle soup, she had the chicken , and i had the prawn, and it was absolutely delightful. Its a very large bowl of soup for about £5.00 and the drinks are around £3.00. they are slightly dearer for what they are. The noodle soups are really tasty, and if you cant finish it all, you get a large cup to take it home. its very small ,but well worth a lunch pop in. I will certainly visit again ,
