• Coupon parking (2 hours free) is also available within a short walk — great if you're staying for a meal.
• Paid Carpark with Wilson Parking is on Lipman Street.
• Mount Victoria street parking can fill up quickly, especially during peak times, so it’s a good idea to plan ahead.

We recommend giving yourself a few extra minutes to find a spot, especially on busy evenings.

Great question! For the best pho experience at home, we recommend keeping the noodles and broth separate until you're ready to eat. Here's how to reheat it for maximum freshness:

Broth: Heat the broth in a pot on the stove until it’s piping hot (almost boiling). You can also microwave it in a heat-safe bowl for a few minutes.

Noodles: If they’ve clumped together, rinse them briefly under warm water to loosen them up.

To serve: Place the noodles in a bowl, add your protein and herbs, then pour the hot broth over the top. This helps reheat everything gently and preserves the fresh flavor and texture.

This method keeps your pho tasting almost as good as when it first leaves our kitchen!
