Pho Cue Kitchen is a Vietnamese restaurant at 52A Faulkner Street in Manchester’s Chinatown. Its story centres on recipes and food traditions passed through the owner’s family, combined with contemporary ideas and careful preparation. The compact restaurant provides a lively setting for lunch or dinner six days a week.
Pho is built on broth brewed for 24 hours and served with flat rice noodles, bean sprouts, spring onions, coriander and herbs. Beef, chicken, roast duck, seafood and a tofu and mushroom version let diners choose different expressions of the same comforting structure. Bun noodle soups offer a slightly spicier route through Vietnamese flavours.
Spring rolls, fresh summer rolls and steamed rice rolls begin the menu, while rice, noodles, salads and bánh mì broaden it beyond soup. Barbecue lemongrass skewers, crispy pork belly and Vietnamese style curries demonstrate the kitchen’s willingness to work across traditional and adapted dishes. Vegan and gluten free markers help diners identify suitable starting points.
Fresh herbs, crisp vegetables, pickles and savoury sauces create contrast across the meal. Many dishes are available with different proteins, making it practical for a group to share and compare. Pho Cue Kitchen combines the warmth of family recipes with a broad, modern Vietnamese menu in the heart of Manchester’s Chinatown.
