🍜 Halifax’s Cozy Vietnamese Spot – Banh Mi A&B Review!

📍 Banh Mi A&B Quinpool Road, Halifax This tiny 15-seat pho shack near the skating rink serves steamy bowls, crunchy banh mi, and $5 coconut coffees – perfect for post-activity carb-loading. 🏆 Why It’s Special ✔ Budget hero: Pho under 15, sandwiches under 10 ✔ Hidden caffeine fix: Vietnamese iced coffee = espresso + condensed milk magic ✔ Quick-stop vibes: In-and-out in 30 mins (no frills, no fuss) 🥢 What We Ordered 🍲 Beef Pho ($14) ★★★☆☆ Clear broth, rare flank, standard fixings – good but not transcendent. 🥖 Grilled Pork Banh Mi ($9) ★★★★☆ Crispy baguette, lemongrass pork, pickled crunch – best deal in town. ☕ Coconut Coffee ($5.50) ★★★★★ Espresso shot, coconut cream, ice bath – better than Starbucks. 💡 Pro Tips ✔ Best for: Quick lunches, takeout coffees, skating refuels ✔ Order hack: Banh mi + coffee = $15 perfect meal ✔ Skip if: You expect gourmet pho (this is comfort, not craft) 💰 Damage: ~$10-20 per person #HalifaxEats #VietnameseFood #BudgetEats
