This place always slaps! Exceptional service with consistently fresh, delicious, and rich flavors. We’ve had almost everything on the menu so far with no notes. My partner and I are currently very much enjoying the special beef pho, the tofu bahn mi, and the lemongrass pork vermicelli 10/10

Rarely leave reviews but this place really deserves it. I just got back from Vietnam and was craving some Vietnamese food. This place may have been better than 80% of the actual meals I had in Vietnam. The food was so fresh and tasty. All the ingredients were delicious and so clean with generous portions. I got the beef pho and the meat fell right off the bone. I also got the salmon salad and it was amazing. 10/10 will definitely be returning. Side note the Vietnamese salt coffee was also so so so good!!!!

My favorite Bahn Mi. The Wednesday 2 for 15 deal is amazing. Be warned, the owner has so much aura, you’re in danger of getting seriously charmed.

Ordered lemongrass tofu with rice and it was fire it came with a cup of soup at a reasonable price. Visiting from an area with a plethora of authentic Vietnamese restaurants and I’d say this place is on par with them, highly recommended!

Pickup only place with fast service, quality food (vegan options too), and reasonable prices. I always go here to grab a quick bite. Food is always ready within 15 minutes

By far the BEST bahn mi joint in all of Philadelphia. And it’s located in Queen’s Village by the Italian-Mexican markets. How convenient!
They’ve got the most unique options ranging from lemongrass pork (my fav) to birria bahn mi (yes, it comes with the soup as all birria should. Dip it & eat it for a flavor smorgasbord). They also have Pho, papaya salad, poke salad, and more! Did I mention they make fresh smoothies, too?? They do!
Run by Danny & his dad, it has a warm hole-in-the-wall vibe, which makes you feel like you just stumbled upon Philly’s best kept secret. No cap. You did.
The prices are reasonable. The food is served hot & made fresh daily. The baguette is so crispy & soft. Ugh. There is not enough good things I can say about Pop-Up Cafe. They accept cash & venmo (sorry no card), with a slight upcharge on all venmo purchases. But that hasn’t stopped me from ordering here on the regular & paying by venmo consistently.
If you’re in the area & on a budget, or down to try something new, flavorful, and filling, stop by Pop-Up Cafe. You you would be remiss if you missed the chance to do so.

This place is awesome, and I can’t believe I didn’t notice it until today, when I left the bank lol! I had the Poke bowl with tuna, which was delicious,and fresh! Welcoming, friendly, and gracious service, beautifully crafted presentation, generous portion, and good prices are some of the things that make this take out place a new favorite! Make sure to have cash or Venmo, or go to the atm at the bank across the street! I will def return to the Pop Up Cafe!
