Welcome to Banh Mi Station, a vibrant bakery and café nestled in the heart of Brendale, Queensland. With its inviting ambiance and a menu that dances between the authentic and the innovative, this café is a beloved gem for both locals and visitors alike.

Specializing in Vietnamese cuisine, Banh Mi Station is particularly renowned for its delicious bahn mi sandwiches. Each bite is a harmonious blend of textures and flavors, featuring fresh ingredients and expertly marinated proteins.

Or indulge in the aromatic lemongrass chicken, touted as the best in the region by many loyal customers.

The café is not just about bahn mi; it also offers a delightful selection of gluten-free treats, like the indulgent Biscoff cheesecake and the glazed pecan caramel slice, each at a reasonable A$6.00 to A$10.00. Pair your meal with a refreshing drink, such as their robust Vietnamese coffee or the light and tangy lychee lemonade, both priced at A$6.00. There's also an enticing range of fruit teas that invites you to savor the exotic flavors of tropical mango, luscious lychee, or sweet peach.

The atmosphere at Banh Mi Station is radiantly warm, with friendly staff who make every customer feel welcome, even during busy lunch hours.

Lovely little spot for lunch with my husband today. It can get very busy. This is no surprise given the quality of the food on offer. I loved my Tofu Banh Mi with extra tofu. Having not been here before I wasn't sure if they'd skimp on the filling so I ordered extra. Extra was not needed but was absolutely enjoyed! My brother in South Australia enjoys a Banh Mi. I took a lot of delight in sending him a photo of my lunch while he was at work! I look forward to trying some of their other menu and bakery options. The sold-out hot box of bakery goods speaks for itself. The sweets cabinet is to die for. This little gem is just off the main drag. You'd miss it if you didn't know it was there.

Everytime we have come the food has been absolute quality. Crispy pork banh mi, lemongrass chicken Bahn mi and the vanilla slice are delicious. Really great customer service, even though there was a line the staff member did not rush us. Very popular spot. Seating inside and out.

Staff are always super friendly and the food is great. If they closed any later than 3:30 on a week day I would spend all my money here. The banh mi is the best I've ever had (image is lemon grass chicken. Crackling pork is incredible)

I can't rave enough about this place. They make amazing bahn mi, with plenty of fresh ingredients and I have yet to find a tastier bahn mi. The ladies are always so friendly and recently, I received my uber eats order, and they had to change, due to not having any pork belly left, and they added a personal note and some complimentary spring rolls. Great service and delicious food.

One of the best, must try! Highly recommend. Great Bahn Mi’s with exceptional flavour, Vietnamese coffees and an awesome bakery as well. Enjoy!

Oh my goodness.....first time having the crispy crackling pork belly Banh Mi. Was absolutely AAAMAAZING. Made to order so it's super fresh......Crispy baguette filled with crispy crackling pork belly and a lovely salad, tasty sauce and chili on top. Was really delicious. We most certainly will be back again. Thank you so much.

Recently went in 30mins before close and the team were so lovely. Was recommended crispy pork Bahn Mi with extra BBQ pork meat and it was spectacular! I had to go back in and get one for hubby as well. We also tried the sausage roll and they make them in house. It was full of flavour and delicious. Spring rolls and meat balls are also solid but not as good as the pork.
