First things first, make sure you make that turn closest to Chinor. It’s not well lit at night and you can easily miss it. The next entrance doesn’t connect to that strip mall. After you turn in, there is a bountiful amount of parking. The shop is not big inside but it does have seating. Two tables and window seating. What I like about this place is that it’s actually operated and run by Vietnamese. It makes it that much authentic. Pho Noodle Stations and Pho Lane are run by mostly Chinese. Pho Thien Vietnamese Kitchen had an all Indian staff the last time I went in. I brought those places up because they feature banh mi on their menus. So, Tien Banh Mi & Boba I’ll definitely return for their authenticity.
I ordered a roasted pork banh mi and a strawberry fruit tea. I also bought some pate and the egg spread. They make a quick breakfast, all you need is some bread or some rolls. The banh mi is a good size sandwich. There was a generous amount of roasted pork throughout. The bread had a nice crunch to it and it was soft in the middle. The jalapeños added a mild kick to it. The strawberry fruit tea was good, not too sweet at all. The owners were very friendly and helpful. The pricing was fair. He actually gave us some free bread to take home.

Their sandwich are really amazing. Being vegetarian, I tried their Tofu / Dau Hu sandwich which had
Lemongrass Flavored Tofu, Mayo, Soy Sauce, Pickled Daikon & Carrots, Cucumber, Cilantro and Jalapeno
I also had taro milk tea with Boba
Trust me, the sandwich was very good. The bread was very fresh and soft. The tofu had an amazing flavor.
Lee was very patient and helpful and kind and helping me place the order and choosing what I should be eating
I highly recommend this place.

Big thanks to Kesha from Yelp Elite and Tien Banh Mi for a really lovely introduction to banh mi.
This was my first banh mi, and I went straight for the roasted pork (Heo Quay). What a way to start. The bread alone deserves applause. Light, crackly, shatters when you bite, then somehow melts away. Magic.
Inside was a perfect balance of crunch and zing. Sautéed green onions, fried onions, pickled daikon and carrots, cucumber, cilantro, and just enough jalapeño to keep things interesting. The whole sandwich felt bright, tangy, savory, and fresh without trying too hard.
They also have a solid drink lineup. Milk teas, fruit teas, smoothies, coffee. I chose the Thai milk tea since it’s on the less-sweet side, and it was just right. Dessert-like, but not cloying.
The staff were genuinely kind and welcoming, which always makes food taste better. The space itself is a cute, bright little spot tucked into a somewhat hidden plaza. There are a few window seats where you can sit, eat, and people-watch while enjoying your sandwich.
All in all, a great first banh mi experience. I’ll definitely be back, now that I know what I’ve been missing and is only a few minutes from home.

Banh Mi and Boba FTW!
Stopped in and tried the avocado mango smoothie and the special! They did not disappoint.
The bread is baked fresh daily and was perfectly crispy outside and soft inside. I’d never tried this combo for a smoothie and was so excited to try it! It was thick, smooth, and had just enough sweetness.
I’m excited to go back and try other varieties. As I was leaving I saw they have specials listed on a poster for Tuesday and Thursday that I can’t wait to take advantage of. Tuesday is a sandwich and boba for 10.95, Thursday is $6 for a sandwich. Parking was easy since it was in a strip mall.

We traveled from the McHenry area (an hour and a half drive) to try this place for my birthday. It was well worth the drive!
The fresh bread is what drew us in, and it does not disappoint. We ordered the Char Sui, Pork Belly, and Roast pork belly for the Bahn Mi. We ordered a Vietnamese coffee as well as the pork spring rolls.
The Bahn Mi bread is out of this world! Crispy on the outside and so soft on the inside and not at all chewy. The pork spring roll was fantastic and the sauce served with it tied it all together. The Tien signature coffee (Vietnamese coffee) was nutty, strong, and rich, as a Vietnamese coffee should be.
We would again travel here!

A good Banh Mi sandwich. My first experience having Banh Mi, loved the all natural ingredients flavor in my sandwich.
A good place to start your day with a fresh sandwich.
The taro Boba was flavorful and with Lychee Jelly it was hard to resist. The recent craze is living up to its expectations.
The service was quick the location was ideal too with a lot of parking spaces.

Really like Tien Banh mi, the sandwiches are made fresh. Crusty Bread super taste. It’s wonderful. Glad I made the trip out. I had the special combo which was flavorful and satisfying. The staff is friendly and I like how they package. They take the time to get things right here.

I often got the fish patty banh mì when come here. It was really delicious and tasty most of the time. But today the banh mi is a lil soft. The fish patty tastes good as always.

I have visited this banh mi spots multiple times when visiting my mom in IL. My fav are Tien Special Banh Mi and the roasted pork – very flavorful for $6 on Thurs. Also make sure to check out the salted Vietnamese coffee. However, this latest time the banh mi is not crispy.

I’ve never had good Banh Mi in Illinois and this so far the best. I bought special and roasted pork ones, 6 plain Banh mi, pate and egg sauce butter. Highly recommend and definitely come back. So glad I found them ❤️❤️
