Plan your visitAbout Ben Thanh Hot Bread & Cakes
Bypass Springvale's swollen strip queues—this counter turns out bánh mì on baguettes baked with serious crackle. Neighborhood regulars steer straight toward the cold cuts and roast pork, though a thick smear of paté and house sauce quietly anchor every roll. Midday orders move fast under an unfazed crew. Snag a paper sack of red bean sesame balls from the glass case on your way out—just keep cash or PayID handy.
- Signature Bánh Mì: Crusty French baguettes loaded with roast pork or cold cuts, crisp pickled vegetables, fresh chili, and house paté.
- Traditional Sweets: Freshly made red bean sesame balls and pandan coconut cakes straight from the pastry counter.
- Speedy Lunch Counter: Calm, rapid service cuts through peak midday lines; payment is strictly cash or PayID.

Savory Paté and Signature Sauce
The bakery's banh mi rolls are grounded by a signature savory paté and balanced house sauce that customers consider the core defining element of their sandwiches.
The pate and sauce were the heroes for me.
FlavourFiend Masterfully Built Pork Rolls
Sturdy, high-quality crusty baguettes packed with authentic Vietnamese cold cuts and crisp fillings make it a premier sandwich destination across Melbourne.
Was extremely impressed with the cold cut pork roll this is now my favourite banh mi vendor in Melbourne.
A Review Worth Writing Fresh Red Bean Sesame Balls
Beyond savoury rolls, the bakery fries golden sesame balls filled with sweet red bean paste that patrons praise for their freshness and texture.
There sesame balls are so fresh and delish.
Wiyada Kaewwinat Traditional Vietnamese Confections
A diverse array of Vietnamese bakery desserts, including pandan coconut delicacies and packaged specialties, complements the savory takeaway offerings.

Chia Brisk Midday Counter Service
A well-staffed counter ensures steady, friendly, and efficient service that swiftly moves customers through peak midday lunch hours.
There’s plenty of staff to keep up with the busy times like lunch time.
Trevor Scholtz Filling, Budget-Friendly Lunch Options
Generous portions and reasonable prices provide an affordable takeaway meal; come prepared with cash or PayID.
It's a fantastic budget-friendly option, especially considering how satisfying it was.

Red paste sesame balls - delicious and probably the best Ive ever had.
FlavourFiend Xíu Mại (Meatball) Bánh Mì
Try the xiu mai (meatball) as that is probably their best but they're all good.
