Very nice experience at Pho No.1, my Vietnamese friend recommended this place to me and said it’s authentic.
A bit far from the uni but definitely worth coming, it’s one of the best Vietnamese food I had in the UK!
The staffs and the owner were kind and welcoming, definitely gonna go again👍🏼👍🏼
Even though I've been twice to Pho No. 1, I've only tried the grilled monkfish. It was that good, so I got it again :)
Technically it is fried (perhaps in addition to grilled?), but quite delicious in any case. I did get it with rice accidentally the first time (I asked for noodles they mixed up), but it turns out it's better with rice.
Apart from the mistake, the takeaway service was slow, I guess it will also depend on the day.
I will not penalise for the service, assuming it will be better next time.
- banh cuon £7.90
- banh xeo £8.50
- bun ga hue £9
the banh cuon was silky and smooth although a bit thicker than i like but overall still delicious! it paired beautifully with their addictive nuoc cham which also came with their banh xeo. it was very crispy but messy to eat bc the fillings were added separately rather than cooked into the banh xeo.
the portion of the bun ga hue was generous but sadly it wasnt as flavourful as others i’ve had and i felt like the chicken was cooked separately then just added at the end. the service was so nice and they really made us feel welcome so id def come back and hopefully i can try the chè bc they ran out during my visit!
Great little place to eat, food is top notch, and good vaule for money. Can bring your own alcohol in as well. It isn't the nicest looking place, but is clean and friendly. Me and the wife love this place! Plus free street parking available in the evenings.
A very nice and warm place for a noodle or Ben Hou; beef or pork are really nice. Excellent service and of course I love to go back there anytime.
Very authentic decor and super tasty Vietnamese food, the owner/staff really polite and helpful. We have tried few things and we like all of them. Highly recommend the Pendan tea and iced coffee as well! Will definitely come back to try more things.
Food was quite good, large portions of the starch stuff like noodles.
The prawn and mango salad was very refreshing and tasty!
This pho restaurant is a hidden gem!! Authentic vietnamese food! The beef pho is better than other places in town, so is the coffee! The place should be much more crowded than the pho places in city centre, a bit gutted for them not have higher ratings!
Absolutely loved it.
We was waiting for friends to come, whilst the waitress pushed us to order our food, it was in no way *rude*
Excellent service and excellent food.
Rare beef salad has too much beef!!! We added the salad from other food and mixed it into the salad which was so refreshing .
Banh cuon the rice roll sheet must've been the thinnest I've ever had, so moorish. Not sure about the fried Vietnamese sausage.
Rice Noodle main, had lots of veg, and little seafood... Didn't mind this at all. Overall food wasn't salty or filled with msg
Vietnamese tea was excellent. Never had it before and the taste reminded me of pandan.
Friends ordered rare beef pho and said the beef was so good and tender
Banh xeo was also thin and crispy
Highly recommend
Loved the waitress straight up front approach 😊
Love this place! Have been here for meals with friends numerous times and everyone loves it! The aubergine clay pot and the pork clay pot with rice is delicious, with dishes for both vegetarians and meat lovers! ❤️
The pho is so tasty and great value for money. When we get takeaway we always get the banh mi and the prawn toast 🍤
It’s always such a lovely atmosphere in here and feels so homely all the staff are always so helpful and kind 💕
Truly authentic food, which is obviously fresh. The staff are so friendly and care about your experience. We visited on a whim and we are so glad we did. It is the best meal we have had in a long time. The restaurant is clean and cosy. Cannot recommend here enough, we will certainly be back. Sad to see there aren’t many reviews, as there was plenty of custom!
I recommend the summer rolls which are just bursting with flavour and it comes with a delicious peanut dip.
The owners don't speak much English, but their food is pretty decent.
Their menu is very well written with English explanation, so if you've been to any other Vietnamese / Pho type restaurants, you will have no problem ordering or eating in.
The pho noodle was a bit overcooked to my liking, it was too soft and came in too many broken pieces, making it difficult to eat. Still delicious though.
The bahn cuon - steam rolls (sticky, steamed rice paper topped with crispy onion and filled with mushrooms) were really good. The restaurant has quite a selection of Vietnamese dishes besides pho noodles to choose from.
Really great food
Quick service
I would order all side dishes available!

Has to be one of if not the best vietnamese restaurant we've been to in the UK.
Place is really nice inside felt like we were right back in Vietnam super authentic. Lady who served us was very friendly and welcoming.
Menu is great with a big variety of classic vietnamese dishes aswell as some dishes you can't usually find around here like duck tongues etc.
The sharing starter was excellent and the beef in betel leaf aswell as the grilled squid salad were real highlights there. Summer rolls and spring rolls were again to die for.
The pho was fantastic with a flavorful broth and such soft chicken and rare beef.
Then I had Bún thịt nướng which is one of my favourite dishes and it was heaven the pork was so so good.
Got some pork and chicken banh Mi to take away too which were bloody gorgeous.
To top everything off we had some good vietnamese Iced coffees and Hanoi beers.
Well worth visiting this unassuming little spot id say it is the best around here. Can't wait to come back and try some more of the menu.
Excellent little establishment. We arrived quite late and in a fairly large group. The staff were friendly and quickly accommodated us moving tables around to make space. The food was delicious and fairly priced. I will certainly be visiting again the future. :-)
great place, lovely staff! I've been there twice and I was very satisfied with my first order: Spring Rolls and Pork Belly & Egg Clay Pot Dish were delicious! however, the second time I was surprised with a cold Vietnamese BBQ.
Nice food and authentic taste ! .. Cheap prices compared to central Manchester restaurants .. friendly staff . I'd happily go back
