Càphinique

You'll spot the unassuming frontage on Carrington Street, but step inside and the aromatic hit of star anise and fresh herbs tells you everything about what's coming. This isn't your typical high street café trying to do everything – they've committed properly to Vietnamese flavours and it shows in every bowl. The pho arrives steaming with that deep, complex broth that takes hours to get right, while their bánh mì are stuffed with proper pickled vegetables and quality meats. You're getting restaurant-quality Vietnamese food in a relaxed café setting where you can actually linger over a Vietnamese coffee without feeling rushed.
