BOND＆Co.

Pho or udon for lunch? At BOND＆Co., you can choose according to your mood. The pho on the menu is made with chewy fresh noodles, while the udon pairs noodles with a light broth. One diner who ordered the Ladies’ Set noted that it came with a choice of udon or pho, and opted for the pho. They found its distinctive Vietnamese aromas fairly restrained, making it a potentially appealing option for anyone looking for a more familiar-tasting bowl.

A Scotch egg-style croquette filled with quail egg, minced meat and glass noodles was a highlight of the set that day. The diner enjoyed the contrast between its crisp coating and the filling, and its bite-sized shape. They also liked the fried spring rolls for their crisp finish and lightness. The accompanying omelette, they noted, was neither too sweet nor too salty. Set contents may vary, so check when ordering; it’s an option for those who want to try a few different flavours alongside their noodles.

Beyond noodles, the menu includes yakisoba-style udon with vegetables and mushrooms, as well as banh mi made with Vietnamese ham. There is also a banh mi with roast pork, offering another option for a light meal. One diner also mentioned enjoying darts with drinks in the evening. Open for lunch and dinner, this is a casual spot serving coffee and beer as well as food.
