New Banhmi Cafe

Tucked away on Nostrand Avenue, this small, family-run spot delivers straightforward Vietnamese street food that hits the spot without breaking the bank. The main event is the banh mi—stuffed with options like flavorful ground pork, grilled chicken, or vegetarian-friendly tofu—best ordered during the lunch rush when the baguettes are at their crunchiest. Beyond the sandwiches, the kitchen turns out quick, reliable comforts like pho, summer rolls, and noodle salads, easily paired with a classic bubble tea or a strong, sweet Vietnamese iced coffee.
