Pho Gia Truyen Bat Dan
Phở Gia Truyền
The most famous pho shop for queues in Hanoi's Old Quarter, recommended by the Bib Gourmand, where customers line up to order and carry their own bowls to their tables.
Located at 49 Bát Đàn Street in the Old Quarter, this shop is a classic representative of traditional Hanoi beef pho and is listed as a Bib Gourmand by Michelin. The menu mainly features three options: rare beef, rare and brisket beef, and cooked beef, which can be paired with fried dough sticks (quay) or an egg. The process is to queue up, order, pay, and carry your own bowl of pho to a table. Seating is basic and reservations are not accepted. A bowl costs around 55,000–70,000 VND. The morning session starts at 6:00, and it is best to arrive before 7:30, as it may sell out after 8:30–9:00. The evening session opens at 18:00. It is easily accessible on foot within the Old Quarter, but parking is difficult due to the narrow streets.
Opening hours
Daily 6:00–10:00, 18:00–20:30 (until sold out)
