Just a block from the popular Jean-Talon Market, Marché Hưng Phát is a Vietnamese grocery that also serves bánh mì sandwiches for only $7 CAD--easily one of the best food deals I found in Montreal. For $2 CAD more, you can add extra meat, which I highly recommend. Inside, there's a large shared table with 6-8 seats and a counter with another 5-6 spots. It's casual but convenient for a quick bite. On my first visit, I tried the grilled pork and found the meat portion very thin, so the second time I ordered extra meat, which made a big difference. The sandwiches are served in classic style with house-made mayo, pickled carrots and daikon, jalapeños, and cucumber. I also tried the BBQ pork option, but it turned out to be more like deli-style sandwich meat, not the char siu BBQ pork I was hoping for--so I wouldn't order that again. Other options include beef, meatball, and shredded chicken. The menu is written in Vietnamese, French, and English. The staff preparing the sandwiches may not be fluent in English, but they understand enough that you can point, and the staff at the register do speak English. Pro tip: if you're dining in and want your sandwich toasted, ask while they're making it--before it's wrapped--and they'll toast it for free. If you're already visiting Jean-Talon Market, this is a fantastic stop for an authentic, affordable bánh mì. read more

Apparently this area is considered the unofficial Little Saigon next to the Jean-Talon Market, and we'd read good reviews about their bánh mì. Since I'm a big bánh mì fan, we had to give it a try even in Montreal! I ordered the siu mai bánh mì, which I believe was about $7. Service was quick, but the protein portion was really lacking. I had also asked for no cilantro, but it was added anyway, so I ended up picking it out myself. The sandwich came with the usual marinated carrots, daikon, and cucumber. Instead of soy sauce, they used hoisin sauce. Bread was crispy and be sure to ask them to toast it. Overall, it was okay for the price. Next time, I'd probably pay a couple of extra dollars for more meat. There are also some pre-made Vietnamese food and drinks. Essentially it's like a small grocery store with a cafe plus 2 tables. read more

Crazy busy viet market serving yummy viet food. We tried out their Banh Mi, bread was a bit hard for us but it was very tasty. Also got the Bun Rieu (husband approved) and the Banh Canh which was thick rice vermicelli noodles instead of Banh canh but the broth and everything was delicious. Iced Vietnamese coffee was also on point. There's only one large table (fits 8) and some counter seating (probably 4-5 seats). And the rest is the market and where people line up to order. They're very friendly here and service is quick and efficient. read more

Opened in 2006, this small market on Rue St Denis, just before it meets rue Jean Talon has had excellent reviews on their food, especially their Bahn Mi sandwich. I went for lunch and ordered a Bacon Bahn Mi, which I asked to be warmed up. The sandwich was a good size, so I please asked them to cut in half. There's no place to eat inside, you have to take your food somewhere..so I went to Marche Jean Talon and had my sandwich there. I could taste all the fresh ingredients that the sandwich had, especially the cilantro and the tiny pepper pieces. The sandwich was very bready, but that is the way they are supposed to be. CAD$7 net for this large creation. It was a good tasting experience, so if you like Bahn Mi sandwiches, stop by. read more

Best bahn mi ever! We ordered the tofu version and took them back to the Ritz for dinner. Asked for extra cilantro and light on the peppers- no problem. The owner was very pleasant and the place is clean. Close to the Jean Talon market so not too far from the metro station. We will definitely return next trip - at least once! Merci! read more

Good prices and good sandwiches. The lemon grass beef can be fatty and chewy. The number one and two are my go to sandwiches. Will try the lemon grass chicken sandwich next time. read more

So glad to be in Montreal , really a foodie Mecca center. I grew up in Montreal so every time I visit any of these familiar places, it bring back fond memories of my childhood. I now live in the United States, and going back and eating some of my favorite foods bring back such good memories. There are many Banh mi shops all over the city and this is one that we tried near our Airbnb. I thought the bread baguette was a little stale and it would have been much better if put in the oven to warm it up. I always get the regular cold cut and thought the taste was fine but nothing stands out. Their regular cold cuts was priced at $7 . Their pate chaud ( meat filled small pie) was tasty especially after warming it up in an oven . The crust was flaky and the whole pie was a decent couple of bites. The shrimp spring roll was ok ; I thought the the rice paper was a little thick and the accompanied sauce was watery and not like the usual consistency. I gave it one extra star for the ease of payment , accepted US Apple Pay and credit cards. read more

The spicy pork bahn mi. What the hell. Refreshing, elusive and weirdly spiritual. I will be coming back here soon. Not only to divest in this sandwich but to thank them for their time and craftsmanship. read more

Authentic Bahi mí that we can't find very good in the USA, we ordered 6 originals and wish we a ordered more! Excellent!

Great Bahn mi sandwichs. Tough to get to these days because of the construction. The two ladies at the counter are quite fast. The young guy at the cash seemed busy on the phone. Crunchy read more

We stopped by Marche Hung Phat to try out their Banh Mi after visiting Jean-Talon Market. There is always room for good food! There was a short line but it moved quite fast. Everyone was ordering Banh Mi to go and so did we! For $4 a nice Vietnamese sandwich is a good deal. The thing I enjoyed the most was the bun with crusty exterior and soft and moist interior.Love the pickled carrot and daikon toppings. Extra Thai chili please! I am not sure if Marche Hung Phat serves the best Banh Mi in Montreal but I can tell you that the one I had was excellent. Skip the Vietnamese Cold Coffee though.. it was meh.... read more

On the quest for the best banh mi in montreal. This place was pretty good. Bread was better and Much fresher than other places I've been to but I still find they can add more stuffing in the sandwich- why are they always so skimpy ?They definitely have better sauces and their house mayo is great. I also tried the beef soup and enjoyed it - nice taste and spice. Their Iced milk coffee was delicious and would go back for this. I tried the rice cakes with porc and mushroom because I like to try different things but I didn't particularly enjoy this. read more

I love Banh Mi sandwiches and I was recommended this place which is conveniently located at the corner of Jean-Talon / St-Denis. Prices have gone up over the years, now the sandwiches are well over $6. The bread is perfect every time, ingredients are fresh and generous. Just make sure to pay attention during the preparation so they don't screw-up your order. Asked for NO SPICY, I GET SUPER SPICY. Not a fun experience when you eat your sandwich well after you left their shop. When they do get it right, it's a solid option. read more

My family and I were looking for asian food for lunch after shopping around in Marche Jean-Talon. It is a vietnamese supermarket/fast food place. Lines can get long but the servers are quick. Seating is limited - probably only seats 10. This place has great bahn mi. It was the probably the best i've ever had. The star of the sandwich is the baguette - it has a crunchy crust with soft filing. They also sell prepared, refrigerated food that you can buy to-go. read more

Food should be eaten when it's fresh. That means most pizza's should be enjoyed at the shop, take out Chinese should be the exception rather than the rule, and restaurant meals should be completed at the table whenever possible. Banh mi actually travel quite well, especially when packed properly. This place separates the vegetables from the meat, so that when you reheat the sandwich in the oven (350 F - for 10 to 15 minutes) they don't wilt. The thing is that I live hundreds of miles away, so when my delivery of sandwiches came, they needed a bit of TLC to be brought back to life. If the decision is between fresh banh mi from upstate New York, or a slightly aged sandwich from Marche Hung Phat, I'm going with the imported sandwich every time. What a delicious treat. I had the number one with ham, cha lua, and pate. But this has everything going on. Let me see if I can capture it. Crispy crust, tender crumb, meaty ham, funky pate, creamy dressing, crunchy cucumber, sweet pickles, hot pepper, warm bread, cool veggies, and all of it was in a gloriously harmonious balance. To really get a true sense of the place, I have to get up to Montreal and try several of their freshly made sandwiches. But I'm such a fan, that I could not resist the chance to weigh in on their banh mi excellence. Thanks to all of you who bring me delicious things from all over the world. I'm very lucky indeed. read more

Updating this because it's been years and I'm vegetarian now and the banh mi here keep us fed and healthy and happy and wise. They are affordable, fresh and fluffy and crazy delicious. The tofu mushroom is filling and juicy and the fresh pickled veg are so good I want to put them on everything. And they sell them here in mason jars so I can! I also like be the smiling friendly helpful staff here, and the iced Vietnamese coffee is everything good in the world in a cup. read more

Definitely one of the places I miss most about the JTM neighborhood! My favorite is the beef lemongrass with a Vietnamese iced coffee. I keep meaning to try their bun buh wei because all the Vietnamese people seem to go their to have their noodles. Their sticky rice is also very good. It's also a great snack to bring to the movie theaters :P (especially if someone is blocking your view). read more

I got the B10 Tofu and Mushroom Bahn Mi. Best Bahn Mi I've ever had. Seriously so so good. 10/10 would come back again.

After strolling around Jean Talon market, I came here for lunch. More than ten people came in and out and got bahn mi sandwiches, but I got the crab seafood soup. The sandwiches looked legit from the bread to the interior design. So many happy looking people came and went with their bags of sandwiches. The soup takes a while to come out, but it's worth the wait. The crab seafood soup was spicy and they give you the adding aka sprouts, mint, lime. You can ask for Thai basil if you want. Cheap, delicious, thanks to Yelp I had a delicious lunch. read more

Love this place! Some of the best Bahn Mi's I have tried and for 4$?? How can you resist???

By far the best place to come for Banh mi that I've found in Montreal. $4 for a delicious flavourful sandwich of crunchy fresh baguette and contrasting yet crazy delicious flavour. If you haven't had a Vietnamese sandwich you need to get your butt down here to try one. Stop eating subway or smoked meat.... Vietnamese subs are 10X better. I've come here twice in the last few weeks and my mouth is seriously salivating for more. Both my orders were for a B2. Get one....it's loaded with meat, veggies spicy small green peppers win mayo and Vietnamese pate and bacon. It's like an explosion of flavour in your mouth that is crunchy and delicious. The best way I can describe it is a loaded sandwich one of the best in Montreal hands down. If Banh mi is your deal you need to come here to load up your fridge. Great stuff folks. Only the best! read more

Marché Hung Phat - Banh Mi with Vietnamese Iced Coffee - Grocery Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

I first came here when it first opened a few years back. I am rarely in this area and due to traffic and parking issues, I don't come here often. I forgot how good it is here. This is now my new all-time favourite banh mi place. I got the classic meat banh mi, the shredded pork banh mi, the nem banh mi and the meatball banh mi. It was all excellent!!! The best 16$ invested this week lol! It is so good that I would gladly take on traffic and parking problems! This place also offers other vietnamese dishes, desserts and drinks along with the infamous vietnamese iced coffee. Only 4$ for a 10" sandwich and if you buy 10 at once, you get the 11th free. The service is great, fast and more than reasonably priced. read more

Marché Hung Phat - Big ass sandwich - Grocery Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Shout out to my peeps in Montreal for making the Vietnamese everywhere real proud of their superb execution of essential Vietnamese dishes. It's a small little store with to-go plates of sweet and savory favorites, as well as popular noodle soups. They also have a banh mi bar where you can build your own banh mi. The bread was so buttery and crispy, although kind of stingy on the meat. I'm glad I stopped by and had a taste of home in the far North. Highly recommended by a Vietnamese! Also check out the grocery store next door! read more

The Vietnamese tofu bành mì is a vegetarian's dream sandwich and will only set you back 4$!! The bun is perfection, it requires some work but you're not going to break your teeth. The tofu is done just right and the veggies are perfection. I can barely finish one, but I always give it my best effort as it's so damn good. Their Vietnamese coffee is also delicious with the sweet condensed milk, just be very clear with them if you want the hot version as they tend to just give you the iced one automatically. Counter service may look like it'll take forever, so don't be scared if the queue is huge, it goes really fast! read more

I drive from from decarie and the 40 to get me some of that delicious bahn mi. The flavors are fantastic, the price is right. Call in advance for big orders (I usually grab between 20-30 of them for the guys at work, they all trip out over these magic sandwiches) read more

I'm eating the sandwich I bought on this evening, price changed to $4.50, taste not like before, no more pate and meats....Completely disappointed.... :( :( read more

I fell in love with their Bahn Mi after the first bite! Whatever that secret sauce/ mayo they put on their baguette is delicious. It kept the sandwich moist. The baguette itself is a generous size. I didn't feel they were trying to skimp on their meat. Then on top of that they stuffed it with all the veggies and Vietnamese pickles. Heavenly. read more

Gah, how can sandwiches be this delicious? Most of what they have is four after tax, and just the one sandwich is a perfectly-filling lunch. Crispy baguette, crunchy and tangy pickles, savory meats and fresh cilantro. Perfection in simplicity. read more

Sandwich was great! Soup was disappointing. No longer accepting credit card or Apple Pay.

They have a lot of variety of sandwiches! When I first tried it, I was a little bit disappointed by the beef sandwich. However, that happens to any place with plenty of variety: you like some and you hate some. I came back for the original sandwich, and it was like the one I ate all my childhood. Really good. It's also very cheap, going for 3,50$ each. They also do it in front of you, all customized and very fast service. read more

Awesome banh mi! They also make great bubble tea, which is hard to find (good or otherwise) in the area!

Great Banh Mi for 4CAD. The bread to filling ratio is just about ideal. I like the nem nuong, but have not tried the other flavors. They also have a nice Che Chuoi (Vietnamese tapioca with coconut and banana) in the fridge made with starchier bananas which was a big plus. read more
