Absolutely incredible spot. We had the beef pho and a bánh mì and both were unreal. The pho was rich, deeply flavoured and comforting without being heavy — you could tell the broth had been simmered properly. The bánh mì was spot on too: fresh, crunchy bread, perfectly balanced fillings and full of flavour. Simple food done exceptionally well. We’ll 100% be back

Been here many times. The food is affordable and the portions are generous. Located near Bondi so great for a walk after. Great date spot but also good for a casual outing. Would highly recommend. More

We had the spicy lemongrass pho and a special laksa dish. The pho was okay, but the laksa broth tasted amazing. Unfortunately, the broth wasn’t filtered properly—it was messy, and bits of lemongrass even got stuck in my throat. … More

Just went to Bar Pho twice and absolutely adored it! Everyone I brought along had a blast, and they were so impressed with the vegan choices. Plus, the service was top-notch and super thoughtful about everything. Defo going back, 100% recommend!

Finally nice pho in the eastern suburbs without having to go to Marrickville!! The food here is awesome, the staff are great and it’s nicely decorated. Definitely becoming a regular

Pho snob here.
Pho was decent, was missing a little body, possibly less fat and more gelatinous needed, and a little more roasted spices particularly ginger. A touch on the sweet side.
Vietnamese coffee is on point.

I am very disappointed with the Banh mi I ordered here.
The worst one I have had in my life. The pork was extremely overcooked and dry. Have a look at the photo there is also zero sauce in it to help. Almost hurt my mouth to eat.
$17 for it too, that’s above normal price, you would think that it would be a nice meal to have but any other place that does it for $12-13 is much better. I will not be returning here sadly.
Only doing 2 stars not 1 because I feel bad.
This has ruined my lunchtime unfortunately please fix this in future, I would be embarrassed to serve this to someone.
Regards

Pho Bar Bondi is an absolute gem. The food is incredible — fresh, flavourful and some of the best pho you’ll find anywhere. The coffee is also surprisingly excellent, smooth and perfectly made every time.
A huge shoutout to Greta who provides outstanding service. She’s friendly, welcoming and genuinely makes the experience even better. Between the amazing food, fantastic coffee and Greta’s warm service, this place is a must-visit in Bondi. Highly recommend! 👌

Pho is phenomenal!
I choose the low carb pho, with less noodle and lots of vege.
Additional extra tofu, cost $4, and Vietnamese ice coffee for my drink.
Definitely recommend pho around Hindi

I found flavours here to be quite simple compared to the usual depth of complex flavours I get from other Vietnamese restaurants around Sydney. The three prawns I received for the price I paid was also quite disappointing.

Great tasting pho! The bone marrow pho soup is very rich and fragrant, generous portion of marrow and beef. Love love the beef balls, they are chewy and super tender, you can tell is made from great Australian beef. The soup is slightly … More

Friendly staff. Clean environment. A bit cosy and can get noisy. Food has good portions however the taste seems white washed.
Chilli margarita is great though, a bit less ice would have been nice.

I stopped into this pho spot at an off-peak time, and it was such a lovely experience. The atmosphere is cosy and welcoming, and I grabbed a seat by the window. It was perfect for people-watching while waiting on my meal.
The man serving all the tables was relaxed, attentive, and made the whole experience feel unhurried and comfortable.
The pho itself was fantastic. The broth had that rich, layered flavour you hope for in a great bowl of pho. Deeply savoury, aromatic, and comforting. The meat was tender and delicious. I liked the way the four different condiments were served in a clear glass jars with spoons, and not just a bottle of hot sauce like other areas. It gave the dish that extra vibrancy and the chance to season it to taste, without needing to use a large bottle.
It’s the kind of place where I actually enjoy eating by myself, relaxed, welcoming, and genuinely satisfying. I’d happily come back for another one of those dinners anytime. Portion size was spot on, and every bite was really tasty.

Underwhelming. I was not impressed nor was I satisfied. One can walk up to the window and place an order or dine inside/outside. There were some people dining outside with a pet dog. The restaurant is average in size. The pho broth was a … More

The restaurant has inside a lovely atmosphere, and the manager provided good service.
However:
1.) The broth lacked authenticity, falling short of expectations. It looked darker than usual and tasted as though soy sauce had been added, overshadowing the natural flavors.
2.) The noodles were unfortunately totally overcooked, which affected the overall texture of the dish.
3.) The meat portion was very small, though just about acceptable. But for this price too little.
While the service and ambiance were great, the quality needs improvement to match my expectations for a good Pho.

Worth writing a review place, visited the Bar Pho recently. The food was amazing. We had a veggie pho, prawn salad, curry chicken with rice and spring rolls. All the dishes were yummy. The waitstaff is very friendly, we were attended by Lucas and he was very nice and friendly. He also suggested us what we could order. More

The food at Bar Pho is incredibly fresh, high-quality and flavourful. The beef pho is off-the-charts delicious, as is the chicken pho, and everything i have tried so far. The rice paper rolls are made to order, a must-try. Authentic, made with love and simply delicious. More
