This place has been in Preston forever and it’s a favourite haunt of many locals. I’ve been going to this restaurant since I was 10 years old. The food is cheap, varied and so comforting. There’re known for their “Pho” which is the name for the well known Vietnamese style soups. If you’re feeling unwell these soups are so restorative and healing. Try them and you’ll see what I mean. My other favourite menu item is the “Vietnamese Broken Rice” which is essentially a rice salad with a fried egg and some sweetly spiced pork. I don’t know what magic they put on the pork but it’s always so sweet and tender. If you’re feeling adventurous you must also try the Jackfruit smoothie which tastes similar to a mango smoothie or the “3 colour drink” which is made with coconut milk, red beans, ice and some sort of green chewy jelly for texture.
The food here is great. Pho is definitely one of the best I've had outside of St Albans. I make a trip here once a week and it has never disapointed.
The pho is always very comforting here. The restaurant is a little crowded though.
The best pho we’ve found in the Northside, hence why we’re regulars. The portions are great and they are fairly generous with the meat, noodles and toppings. Downsides are that there is a card minimum of $25 and that takeaway containers cost 50c, which can be inconvenient at times
An oldie but definitely a goodie. No frills just amazing vietnamese food, we usually have the pho and it never disappoints. Will need to return to try their dishes as they look amazing
Quick delicious pho fix. Nothing fancy, expect to serve your own tea, with very brisk service. Flavors in the coleslaw were yum, it was cold out of the fridge, but cant complain about the prices. Also has the vegetarian pho, lighter broth but generous w the vegies! Will return.
I used to come here every week until I was put on a diet the broth makes you feel warm and toasty like a cinnamon bun don’t expect good service but the love is expressed all in the food so A PLUS FOR THAT. AM I RIGHT PEOPLE
This place was just what I wanted. fast, cheap, yum. I had egg noodle soup with wontons for $11. Was delicious. Very hot. The chillis on the side were also very hot, I actually had to poick them back out of my soup haha. Really enjoyed it.
Love this place, has been a local favourite. Ordered the Bun Bo Hue (Spicy noodle soup) and it was just the right amount of spiciness, not too hot whilst still having a little punch. Portion size is good too and the restaurant is most of the time busy.

Taste on point. Place is crowded and the service is pretty good. I would like to suggest that the owner put more light so the restaurant looks better. Moreover, price is pretty affordable.
A small place with traditional pho. Very good and probably the best pho and BBH alone high street in Preston. Highly recommended. Ambience could be better but no doubt about the food taste
Love their pho, very authentic. Also tried their drop noodle soup with crab which is amazing, very rich crab flavour. We also tried the fried calamari & roasted quail which are super delicious.
Pho Hung is located on a little sliver of High Street in Preston, just around the corner from Preston Market, that’s become somewhat of a hub for Vietnamese restaurants. There’s a lot of competition in this area, but Pho Hung is considered by many to be the best of the bunch, and for good reason.
Best Pho in Melbourne! Been here multiple times and I'm never disappointed, prices are amazing for what you get! Absolute go to whenever I'm in the area.
I'm here probably almost every month, sometimes a couples of times in a week. The food is always consistently yummy and fresh. My favourite dishes are the bun bo hue, vermicelli with lemon grass beef and the salt and pepper calamari! I will be your customer forever! thanks for the great food. Service though is ok, but you know you're here for food not for the hustle and bustle.

I have been a loyal customer, have been going to pho hung for over 10 years. Serving used to be large, now is still acceptable. I like their pho. You don't compare them to Vietnamese food you get from Footscray, Richmond or Springvale. But this is defintely the best pho in Preston.
Love the pho with rare beef and beef balls here. The pho soup has depth and complexity and the beef is tender. The chilli oil has fantastic flavour and the herbs are plenty. Delicious food at a great price.
One of the busiest Vietnamese places in Preston and I can see why . The pho here is one of the better ones in Melbourne with a clear and tasty broth with a lot of meat and condiments. The spring rolls were abit underwhelming and also the rice paper rolls which did not have enough filling. Would only come back if I only wanted pho
Really nice, lively ambience, great service, and darn good pho. I get the veggie pho with beef broth and it was full of flavour and they were generous with the amount of veg. Definitely going back. Might even frequent this place over Victoria Street.
This place is a busy tasty mainstay of Preston. Vietnamese classics done so well as well as Chinese food that would make any Australian feel at home. I love the pho and the rice noodle salad. The ice coffee is spot on. You can't go wrong going here. It's cheap and really great.

Can’t go past this local gem in preston! Have been going here for over 10 years and the quality has remained consistent. Service is not 100% but what can you expect for the price you pay! Simple and delicious pho.. best place to come to for a quick pho fix
Needing a Pho fix and because we were around the Preston area, wanted to know where we could go and naturally Zomato showed us the way. An order of our usual special beef pho which has all the goodies included $10.0 and a regular beef and chicken $10.0 both medium as it's more than plenty along with a couple of coconut drinks to wash it down. We can't forget the prawn spring rolls $9.0 too to complete the Vietnamese experience. Fast service, clean and delicious food here at Pho Hung in Preston. The decor wasnt too bad and wasnt totally stuck in the early 2000's but could do with an update although. Till next time, this is Our Foodie Find!
Well having rather daftly reviewed this place mistakenly (I had meant to review Pho Huong Viet) I visited here on June 26 due to said other place being closed temporarily. Anyhoo twas my first visit to Pho Hung and it certainly won’t be the last. This is by a long chalk now my favourite pho restaurant in Melbourne. The ingredients are a cut above and the pho, as any good pho should be, was something far greater than the sum of its parts.
Embarrassment arrived with the bill however when I was told cash was preferred. To which end please change your listing to reflect as such to save the blushes of future first time visitors. :)
Good Pho and noodles. Good flavor with the broth and the beef wasn't tough.
Haven't tried the stir fried mains though. Wife liked the prawn coleslaw salad. "My Tho" across the road would give them a run for their money. Very close in terms of quality.
Came here at 8pm on a Monday night, and there was still a small crowd at the restaurant surprisingly. We were so hungry we ordered a bunch of food and gobbled them down the moment they arrived. We didn’t have to wait for long at all.
Classic beef pho was delicious with a broth that was full of spice and flavours. Homemade prawn spring rolls were small but packed with the right tastes that paired well with the sauces. My father and brother ordered pork rib broken rice and pork rice vermicelli. I didn’t try them but they demolished them both within minutes.
And DAMN, I just had the BEST tom yum soup in town!!! Luckily we ordered the big family size to share, and we were left sweating and downing tea after a few sips. It was very spicy so order with care, but they were so good and addicting we went back for more.
This place is clean, tidy and the staff were efficient and friendly. For what you pay, this place should be the top of your list when you don’t feel like cooking!!
Cheap, cheerful, and fresh. The beef in the pho was good quality, and the soup base delicious. Prompt service. Close to Preston Market also.

This typical Vietnamese restaurant does the job really well. Very accommodating no matter what size your group is, they will always find a table for you! The spring rolls and satay sticks are delicious entrees, the Pho is definitely the icing on the cake. You can absolutely tell how loved this place is by the amount of people always dining here. The only reason I didn't give this place a 5 is the MSG overload in the food. If you're intolerant to MSG be mindful.
Beautiful flavoursome pho, i had the crispy chicken and adored it. Absolutely massive menu in this place which i look forward to working my way through!
Pretty delicious pho, with those pocket friendly prices that will leave your tummy thanking you. The balance between that sweetness, cleanness and homeliness, it's a feel good kind of food. Add together the basil and chilli for a freshening. Can't compare to Springvale though I feel, although the atmosphere is somewhat the same.
Pho Hung. Best Vietnamese beef noodle restaurant in Preston area. Like the special beef noodle. So good. Highly recommended to have a try. Also the iced coffee.
I love this place and have been frequenting it for over 10 years. Whilst I no longer live in Melbourne anymore, practically every time I go to Melbourne, I end up here! The best pho, salt and pepper calamari, fried rice, spring rolls, Vietnamese coleslaw, sang Choi bow, omelettes, you name it! Service is friendly, attentive and fast!
Pho Hung seems like a very quick and traditional pho place, but delivers on quality. Friendly staff and has an authentic run of the mill Vietnamese decor. The food is tasty and what you'd expect when you eat Vietnamese. Great little joint to visit if you enjoy pho or Vietnamese cuisine.
Loses out on 5 because they make you go to the ATM if it's less than $25, but you'll only know it's a $25 limit when you go to pay. Otherwise, best beef Pho in Melbourne, perfect.
Friendly greeting upon entry and directed to take away counter. Order taken prompty and collected in 15min. Great so far. Take it home. No spills in the car. What... containers sealed properly. Amazing. Well, all food tasted fresh and delicious to the pallet. Ordered combination fried noodles, beef and black bean & chicken and vegetables. Plenty of ingredients of all types. Beef cut thin and juicy to eat. Chicked correctly cooked. Vegetables aplenty and various. No bad reviews here. Well done. Will definately be back... this time to eat in with the family.
The pho is very good here, it's usually busy but you always get a table. Food comes quite quickly.
The secret to good pho I think is the stock which is really good and fresh ingredients. Very reasonable price.
The pho is always great! Fresh ingredients and amazing flavours. Spring rolls, wanton soup, Vietnamese coleslaw, broken rice, etc, all delicious. High hairs for kids. Standard Vietnamese restaurant fit out with mirrored walls and green everything! Service can be a bit hit and miss, but the price is right and the food makes up for that.
We tend to go back to this place again and again specially for their pho.
In winters its the perfect thing to warm you up and fill your belly. This place is mostly busy during the evenings but you would not end up waiting for long. I have tried many things here, but the must recimmended is the pho- grilled chicken soup and wonton soup are the ones we usually go for. Along with some entree mostly spring rolls or rice paper rolls.
The food does not take very long to reach your table and in which time you can enjoy the hot tea placed on each table. The prices are reasonable and portions are quite generous.
Super nice pho, their food just make u get addicted to them!
I basically would go there once a week!
I like their rice 🍚 with chicken so much!
There are a few Vietnamese restaurants in this area and this is one of the best ones. The food is excellent, fresh and good size servings. Staff are friendly and the service was great. If you want romantic ambience then probably not the place to go. but for good Vietnamese food this is certainly worth a visit. I ate here on a Tuesday night and had to wait for a free table. you will be seated with others in the same table if it is busy. If you are up for meeting new people then this is great. I have no problem with shoring food with strangers. I will be going back to this place. great value for money $50 for two people with entrees.
if you don't know what's for your early breakfast then Pho is the best option. For $10 you can get a medium bowl of Pho which is pretty full for me
I'm going to say a few words here;
Fresh produce, lotta flavours, great service and quick meal times makes this place one of my favourite places to eat in Melbourne!!!
Hint: Get in early and avoid the queues but be sure to check out the beef Pho 🍲!
Food is delicious. Wait staff are extremely friendly and polite. Service is great.
Would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone that enjoys vietnamese food
Pho Hung is another chain store serving up some great Vietnamese food. The food here is good and service is fast. Perfect for when those noodle cravings hit!. Four Colour Drink $3.50. Same price as the three colour drink, but I figured you get an extra colour = better value right? Nope, the red beans were hard and the green jellies were of the thin variety. Would recommend the usual next time. 6.5/10
When I go to Preston I make a point of going to Pho Hung for their Bun Rieu. Look I am not sure if it's authentic but it does have a good dose of innards for those uninitiated! I love the tomatoey soup and the bits and pieces that is in the bun rieu.
We ordered the grilled pork with bundles of vermicelli to share as well and that was sensational.
Restaurant: Cleans restaurant with plenty of tables to choose from.
Food: plenty of variety to choose from and he food has always been great the three time see have been there.
Staff/Service: the majority of staff are fantastic and helpful with nothing too much trouble. One staff member is not very kid friendly on two of the times we have been there
Price: well priced and the two of us with three kids we always walk our full and have paid a reasonable amount.
The pho was some of the best in the area. Filled with flavor. Service was also very good. Ordered a side of spring rolls as well which were not the best. But the place clearly specializes in pho and soups.
Moving from Abbotsford to Preston we were so sad to no longer have our all time fav pho place, I love Pho 264 around the corner. We were so happy to discover that Pho Hung in Preston makes a great bowl, with delicious broth and fast service! 👌🏼
We've been living in Coburg for over a year and I have no idea why we haven't explored Preston more. A fine example of Pho here only 8 mins from home, coming back soon!
"What do you mean? Of course we are, we are open every day darling!" - said the lady in the phone when we called to check if they were open a few days in to the new year. That sure put a smile on my face.
Attentive service, meals served quick, great value for money, and of course the food is great! Hard to fault Pho Hung. They seem to have figured out a good formula for business that obviously works.
Great tasting food and lovely people ! Ordered take away and wasn't a long wait. Their little son (around 3) keeps you entertained while you wait. Happy times x
Gormandised some rice that was broken
Now my taste buds awoken
Can't put it into words that are spoken
Seriously good food, no jokin'
Yea yea
One of the most popular Vietnamese restaurants on High Street always bursting from the seams and at times lining up outside for a seat.
Ordered take away and went in to pick up traditional broken rice the pork was tender and had the delicious lemon grass flavour and the Rice Vermicelli with spring roles (a favourite of mine) yumm. For two very generous servings for $20 this was bargain.
Want a good true bowl of pho? Thus is the place! Its not fancy or anything so don't expect too much but theres plenty of table and the service is pronto! Not to mention a bowl of pho only cost about $10-15!! (Med or large). The medium in my eyes is huggeee! Lols... If you want everything order the dac biet - special with beef balls as extra. This includes brisket, rare beef, tendons.. Mmm.. Add some salad, sauce and squeeze of lime and off you go!
A traditional Vietnamese restaurant, been coming here for years. Food is nice, and served quickly.
I always have Rare Beef & Brisket Pho, and Prawn Spring Rolls. Crispy Calamari and Broken Rice are delicious too.
Sometimes the rice noodles are a bit soft, but it's still the best pho place in north suburbs.
This is my go to pho place.
A little salty but very yummy and it's super cheap. Generous in size, one pho is enough for my son and I to share for $10.50.
Came into the shop at 9:30pm. Ran out of pho noodles and beef even though they're a pho shop. I guess the pho is bomb for this to happen. Asked the little boi at the register to lick my left nut. Called it a night and ordered chicken pho.
It's always very busy but the staff are very efficient and excellent at clearing tables quickly and getting your order and food out. The Pho is always amazing and the sizzling Mongolian beef is delicious.
The beef pho here is amazing!!! It's flavoursome and does not contain msg. The servings are gigantic, even for a medium bowl, so go there with a hungry tummy! The service is decent, but not the best.
