It's a nice restaurant. I liked the salad & pho beef. Everything was tasty. The coffee could be better.

I'm always a bit skeptical of food on the Mile End because it can be a hit or miss, but the pho here was so comforting & good. 🙏

Le Bay Cà Phê is our go to for Vietnamese food. It's a great restaurant to eat at, very cozy atmosphere, conveniently located & the staff is so kind.
Its my favorite pho in all of Montreal, the base broths are so flavorful. The banh me are huge & come with a side of giant shrimp chips. Give they're juices (like mango & lictchi) a try.
We often call ahead for a pick up & it's ready in 10-15 min.

Ordered Pho & spring rolls on uber eats & it was Amazing! Hot, fresh ingredients & the broth is flavourful. Spring rolls were the best I've tasted.

I knew I had a problem when the young lady working the phone recognized my voice.
I used to work two minutes away so I'd order the chicken bun & sesame balls. So good.
Sitting inside is cozy & friendly & if you can dodge the ubisoft lunch brigade that has ruined going out for lunch all over the neighbourhood all the better.

Quite an enjoyable pho, a bit short on the aromatic leaves but deep in taste.
