the story of Bánh Bánh…

Bánh Bánh is a homage to our grandma, who was a chef in Vietnam during the 1940's.

She was a huge influence on us and the food we serve reflects the food she cooked for us growing up in Peckham.

We are five siblings who have a real passion for the fresh, light but rich flavours of Vietnamese food. Being second generation immigrants, food was the way we connected to the motherland we had only heard about. Delicious bowls of steaming pho, zesty salads and creamy curries were daily staples in the Nguyen household.

The start of Bánh Bánh…

We opened our first brick and mortar location here in Peckham in 2016, after 2 years as a pop up at Rye Wax (Bussey Building). Despite hardships throughout the COVID pandemic, we’ve managed to stay strong all these years - with many thanks to our loyal diners.

We can’t wait to welcome you at our restaurants. From Saigon to London with Love.
