Smashup Cafe

Morning Banh Mi ☀️ Love when I come across small businesses that are doing things right. The owner’s got a cheerful way of greeting everyone that drops on by :) I was skeptical when I saw that I could grab a Vietnamese Banh Mi really quickly on my way to the early ferry to Rottnest Island. Thankfully I was impressed after the first bite. Safe to say it was a smash 😅 Great outdoor seats too 👌🏻 to watch the city come alive. Swing by if you’re in the area!

All the regular Cafe staples but they specialise in their Vietnamese / Korean fusion inspired food. Their large combination roll consists of all the best salad trimmings you might find in a Bahn Mi or Bao. But the meat choice (pick 2) is all of the Korean favourites, bulgolgi beef, spicy beef, spicy chicken, roast chicken, satay chicken, spicy pork, roast pork. Once you have one you will be a regular customer. Staff are super friendly and focus on fresh tasty food and amazing coffee. Been a regular myself for 5+ years

I love this cafe ....!!!!😇 John is one of the friendliest cafe proprietors I have met over the years.... He describes his food as a 'Smash up' between Vietnamese and Korean- as he is Vietnamese and his wife is Korean!! ( Well, that makes for a spicy and interesting cuisine, don't you think??🤔..) But he also has the same brekkies, lunch and take-away as any local cafe , and he serves up a great coffee!!!! BUT if you do want something spicy.... just ask for one of his famous spicy pork, chicken or lamb rolls ..... You will not regret it, I assure you.. Ps They are located just off the corner of Hay street and Pier street in the CBD's East End)
