Pho Nottingham

Even going as far as to be named after the iconic dish, this household name is famous up and down the country for Vietnamese fare. The Pho Nottingham menu serves the likes of hot and spicy bún noodle bowls alongside its eponymous recipe and curries too. Our recommendation? Phở bò nấm trúng, which pairs brisket with enoki and button mushrooms, beef broth, and creamy egg yolk.
