Hankering for a banh mi in Brisbane? These spots have the crunch, the flavour, and the perfect excuse to skip the gym.
Minh Tan Bakery | Inala
For an authentic taste of Vietnamese banh mi, Minh Tan Bakery is the place to go. A favourite among locals for over 25 years, this family-run spot inside Inala Plaza serves up a combination banh mi that’s hard to beat. With crispy, soft bread, smooth pâté, rich house-made bơ (mayo butter), and well-seasoned cold cuts, all topped with crunchy pickled veggies, it’s unbeatable value at just $8. This classic stays true to its roots and will leave you coming back for more.
Banh Mi Factory | Newstead & Zillmere
What started as a market stall is now a top spot for banh mi on the northside. With options like chargrilled chicken, pork, beef, mixed meats, and tofu, their fresh, flavour-packed banh mi hits the mark. Along with their signature banh mi, they also offer noodle salads, rice bowls, rice paper rolls, and pho—basically, a one-stop shop for all your cravings.
Scotts Road Takeaway | Darra
For the past 20 years, this little gem has earned a cult following. While it may not look like much, it packs a flavour punch with its perfect balance of fillings. Crispy cucumber, tangy pickled carrots and rich Vietnamese mayo, all topped with crackling pork—what’s not to love? It’s worth the drive, just don’t forget to bring cash!
Tan Dinh Bread Rolls | Inala
Tan Dinh Bread Rolls may be a recent addition to Inala, but it’s already a local favourite. Offering a diverse range of banh mi, from the classic combination and vegetarian options to house-made sausage and egg. While their banh mi may be slightly smaller than others, the punchy flavours more than make up for it. Plus, you can wash it down with a refreshing sugar cane juice for the perfect combo.
