Bean Banh Mi - Vancouver, British Columbia

Super crispy baguettes!!! They really stuff all the sandwiches and the spicy jalapeno is a kick! Love pairing it with an iced coffee

VIET Sub Gem! Their pate here is super delicious and unique tasting. It's rich, thick, and creamy. I had it smeared on the DAC Biet special sub and it tasted so good. The sub was stuffed with assorted meats including pig ear and was about $6.00. Generous stuffing portions too. ... Very affordable and yummy which is hard to find these days. Highly recommend it if you are craving a VIET Sub. Take out only. Read more

At first, I was skeptical about this place the Google ratings because the reivews are so highly rated. I gave the beef stew a try as suggested by the other reviewers. I bought it for lunch but I couldn't wait, so I took a few bites while it was still ... fresh and it was indeed pretty good! Good enough to upset me when my mom called during lunch and I accidentally dropped the last bit of my banh mi 😭😭😭. The bread surprised me the most. It was crispy on the outside and the inside was so soft compared to the other banh mi I've had. I think if possible, it would be even better if the bread was a tiny bit more moist on the inside. I liked the flavour overall, and that's the most important factor for me 😋 I will definitely go back to maximize on the 20% grand opening discount and try their original, vegan, and chicken banh mi. For reference, after the 20% discount it costs $4.80 each. Read more

Was meaning to try this new Banh mi shop last week, but it had closed early due to selling out. Finally got in to try it and the ship was clean and had an area to stand and eat at the side of the shop. Bought 2 subs. Beef stew and ... five spice chicken. On the packaging there is a cow and chicken sticker to identify the 2 different subs. Bread for the beef stew not too hard, however the chicken sub was a bit harder that can potentially cut your gums. Beef stew sub actually taste like a beef stew. Taste was sweet. Great flavor without being overwhelmed with the sauce. The overall sub is well balanced where the vegetables bread and beef all compliment each other in flavour. 5 spice chicken sub was a little hard to get the flavors with the bread and vegetables. Chicken was sweet, but didn't get any taste of specific spices as sauce was more prelevant than any toast of spices. Price for Banh mi is a little bit higher (depending on subs) than some of the other shops around the area. Overall the Banh mi was decent and they offered a discount if 10% for the soft opening. Will look to try the house special next time. Read more

As a huge fan of Vietnamese subs, I have to say that the atmosphere, food, and service offered by Bean Banh Mi knocked my expectations right out of the ballpark. Bean Banh Mi is a fresh, new, up-and-coming Vietnamese sandwich shop that will take your taste buds straight to heaven. ... While they have only been open for less than week, their products have sold out every single day, with more and more customers coming through the door to try their delicious, nutritious food. My wife had the five-spice chicken sandwich, I had the tri-meat classic, and I have to say we were not at all disappointed. The meat was so packed with flavour that it melted in my mouth with every single bite. The bread, which is baked fresh every morning, was delightfully crunchy yet soft, the pickled vegetables fresh and vibrant, and the little kick of heat from the sauce that I got near the end of sandwich was the cherry on top, the one that really brought all the ingredients together and completed the meal. I tried a bite of my wife's five-spice and the chicken was absolutely out of this world. Not only was it moist, glistening, and flavourful, the tenderness of the meat was perfect in every way. Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better experience. My wife and I will be regulars here from now on. Read more
