Pho Bournemouth

Walk into Pho Bournemouth and you're hit with that unmistakable aroma of star anise and simmering stock—the real deal. It's the kind of place where locals queue during lunch, tucked away on Bourne Ave with stripped-back décor that lets the food do the talking. You'll find yourself slurping through silky rice noodles in broth that's been working hard for hours, choosing between beef, chicken or veggie options, all coming in at prices that won't have you wincing at the till.
