Song Que Cafe in Hoxton has long been both one of the area's best Vietnamese restaurants and one of the best in London. It's been doing great business since opening all the way back in 2002, and now they've decided it's time to launch something new.
To that end, they've taken over what was once Pearly Queen in Spitalfields (Tom Brown's former seafood restaurant) to open Song Que Pho Bar. As the name suggests, here they'll be focusing on their pho noodle soup and they tell us that they'll be serving up "all our classics and best sellers which customers love at our current restaurant Song Que Cafe". So options include various steak cuts as well as beef balls, chicken, prawn and tofu.
Also confirmed for the menu here will be one of their signature dishes, the spicy Bún bò Huế noodle soup as well as various vermicelli noodle dishes. Thre will be snacks too, so you'll find char-grilled beef in betel leaf alongside their fantastic summer rolls. Drinks-wise, they're working on a new cocktail list which will be making use of ingredients from the main menu.
Ultimately, this is very, very good news for anyone working or living in and around the City as you'll be getting a really great new Vietnamese restaurant.
