Great Menu, great food. Unfortunately it took over 30 minutes for our food to come out. People who had arrived after us, were getting their meals before us.

I visited Pho Reading today and had a lovely experience. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming — a nice escape from the busy day I was having. The staff were friendly and attentive without being overbearing, which made the visit feel easy and relaxed. I went for something vegetarian and was not disappointed. The Pho Chay (vegetarian pho) was comforting, full of flavour, and beautifully presented. The broth was rich, the tofu was soft, and the vegetables were fresh. It felt both nourishing and satisfying. I also tried the vegetable spring rolls, which were perfectly crispy and came with a tasty dipping sauce. The place wasn’t too crowded, which gave my friend and me a chance to catch up and really enjoy the meal. We sat in the sun before coming in, so sitting down with good food was exactly what we needed. Overall, Pho is a great spot for light, healthy food with lots of flavour. I’d definitely come back — especially for the veggie options!
