Our story
At Bar Pho, our purpose is as clear as our broth. To serve authentic Vietnamese food with dishes that are rich in history and free from MSG and preservatives.
No cheating, no additives, no shortcuts. Just fresh local ingredients full of natural flavours and nutrients, and years spent mastering the delicate balance of spices.
From humble beginnings, Bar Pho is now synonymous with some of the best pho in Sydney. Continuing to spread the love by helping to nourish the hearts and minds with feel-good Vietnamese food, our original market stalls have grown to include a permanent CBD eatery at Wintergarden, Bar Pho Caters – corporate catering, and Bar Pho Fresh! take-home packs. Our newly open Bar Pho Bondi restaurant is inspired by childhood family recipes and an ode to Tina's mum.
Tina's story
Tina Do is the founder and co-owner of Bar Pho. A master of quintessential Vietnamese dishes, her passion for the food runs deep.
Born in Vietnam Tina came to Australia as a 1-year-old and grew up surrounded by happy food memories. Her love for Vietnamese cuisine came from her mother who would fill their small Cabramatta apartment with the smell of aromatic spices and slow cooking meats. But it was her failed attempts to find a tasty MSG-free pho that inspired Tina to open Bar Pho with the simple desire to introduce Sydneysiders to great tasting Vietnamese food, that didn’t use MSG for flavour.
Today, Tina pays homage to her heritage with dishes that masterfully blend the salty flavours North Vietnam, where her Mum was born, with the sweet tastes of the South, where her Dad is from. With new twists on old classics, she’ll continue to share her love of healthy, honest food and create memorable food experiences, one bowl at a time.
