Same-day vegan banh mi delivery: the fastest way to order

What to know before you order

For a few loaves for breakfast or an afternoon break, call or order online and it arrives in roughly 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the distance from the nearest shop. Banh Mi XANH has five shops in District 1 and District 7, open 24 hours, so there is someone to take the order in the evening or in the middle of the night. What you need ready is: the exact delivery address, a phone number somebody will answer, and what you want from the menu.

For a small order there is no need to call an hour ahead. But in the peaks — 7:00 to 8:30 in the morning, and 11:00 to 13:00 at midday — call a little earlier than usual, because the shop is working through several orders at once.

The fastest way to order

Call the hotline

Calling 0923.183.183 directly is still the quickest. You read out the items, the quantity and the address, and the order is confirmed on the call with no typing involved. Regular customers only need to confirm the usual address.

Order through the site, or by message

If a call is not convenient, the website or a message works too — but state the items, the quantity, the time you want it, and the full address with house number, street and ward. Missing details mean a call back to confirm, which costs a few minutes.

Large orders: offices, ceremonies, temples

An order of a few dozen loaves or more — breakfast for a company, banh mi for a temple on a festival day, or a small party — works slightly differently from a single order.

How far ahead

Under 20 portions, two to three hours' notice is enough. From 30 to 50 portions or more, call the evening before or first thing the same morning, so the kitchen can plan the shifts rather than having everything land in one window. On major festival days, and on the first and the fifteenth of the lunar month, orders rise sharply — a day's notice is the safe option.

How it is priced

A large order is the list price multiplied by the quantity, with nothing added beyond the delivery charge where one applies. Thirty Thập Cẩm at 59,000d is 1,770,000d, plus drinks if you want them. Orders from 500,000d are delivered free within 5km of the nearest shop. Below that, or beyond 5km, the delivery charge is quoted when the order is confirmed, based on the actual distance.

Where we deliver, and how long it takes

The five shops are at 38 Lê Thị Riêng, 15B Nguyễn Thị Minh Khai, 2B Trần Hưng Đạo and 148B Đề Thám in District 1, and 210 Bùi Văn Ba in District 7. Orders go out from whichever shop is nearest to you, so addresses in District 1 and District 7 are generally served fastest. For a large order going further than 5km, both preparation and delivery take proportionally longer, and the staff will give you a specific expected time when they take the order so that you can have somebody there to receive it.

A few things that keep an order smooth

Decide what you want before you call, rather than asking the price of each item while on the phone — it costs both sides time. If you are ordering for several people at once, say how many portions are loaves only and how many include a drink, so the kitchen packs the right thing and it all goes out in one go.

For an urgent order, or a large one for an office or a temple, call 0923.183.183, state the time you need it and the address, and the nearest shop will take it and confirm a delivery time.

Quick questions

Will an urgent order in the peak hours be late?

It may take slightly longer, because the shop is handling several orders at once — particularly 7:00 to 8:30 and 11:00 to 13:00. If you need it urgently in those windows, say so on the call and the staff will prioritise it.

How far ahead for 20 to 30 portions for an office?

Two to three hours, so the kitchen is not overloaded. On a festival day, or the first or fifteenth of the lunar month, calling the evening before is safer.

What order value gets free delivery?

From 500,000d, within 5km of the nearest shop. Below that or further away, the charge is quoted when the order is confirmed.

Is a large temple order different from an ordinary one?

The process is the same; only give more notice, ideally a day, so the kitchen can arrange the shifts to have the quantity ready on time. The price is the list price multiplied by the quantity, with nothing added.

I live further than 5km — will you deliver?

Yes. The delivery charge is based on the actual distance and quoted before you confirm. It will also take longer to arrive than an address near a shop.

How do I pay for a phone order?

On delivery, in cash or by transfer, whichever you prefer — the staff will confirm how payment is taken when the order is placed on the hotline.
