1980 – Cafe und Bánh Mì Köln in Köln - Telefonnummer, Reservierungen, Bewertungen

Google maps says open, handwritten note on door says vacation for one month. Not OK.

One of my favorite Vietnamese restaurants: With exciting weekly menus and the best Pho Bo!!! 😍😍😍 A reason to move back to Cologne... ❤️🤍

The menu is small, which usually suggests that what is on it is prepared with love and skill. The best sweet potato fries I've ever eaten. Sometimes we go there just to eat some fries ;) Báhn Mís are super tasty and fresh. The ragu or stew is my favorite dish there. Changing wine and beer varieties that taste damn good. Location is very nice, inside and out and the service is quick and courteous. 10 out of 10

Small restaurant but comfy and the food is so good. The variety is not much, but speciality beat it. Recommendation: Pho with additional tongue meat. As appetizer choose fried sweet potatoes. Another specialty is the ice coffee.

Very nice bahn mi and pho. Iced coffee is recommended. Nice owner as well!

The terrace with a view of the Mauritius Church is really very beautiful. Unfortunately, the vegetarian soup didn't convince us because it was very fatty.

Very nice spot for lunch, crispy banh mi, fresh ingredients, great sauce. Good, quiet spot to sit too, away from the tourists.

I love the 1980. The Pho and Banh Mi are a blast. The people there are super nice. Bring a tiny bit of patience during lunchtime. Sometimes everything piles up at one time. But it's worth it because it's so delicious.

We were there twice in a row (in one day;-), at lunchtime and in the afternoon. The shop is so authentic and the food is absolutely delicious. You can sit very nicely outside and inside. Service also great!

Nice cafe, food super tasty. You definitely have to have time when it's full, nothing for quick trips.

Pricy but tasty food. Some vegan options.

Very kickers Vietnamese baguette and the salad is great too. Delicious white wine.

The best papaya salad I've ever tasted.

Vietnamese coffee with confit egg yolk is highly recommended!

The 1980 – Cafe and Bánh Mì in Cologne offers an impressive selection of Vietnamese dishes, and the vegan Bánh Mì is a real highlight. The taste is excellently balanced: the combination of fresh vegetables, spicy tofu strips and the perfect amount of coriander beautifully brings out the authenticity of Vietnamese cuisine. The crispy baguette rounds the whole thing off perfectly. The service is friendly and attentive, and the ambience of the café is cozy and inviting. Overall, a great place to enjoy a delicious vegan Bánh Mì. Highly Recommended!

Very relaxed atmosphere on a Sunday lunchtime. Clear map with the highlights from Vietnam. Tasted very good. We will be back.

Very tasty bahn mi in a cozy atmosphere. Cash only. Get the sweet potato fries - lightly breaded and fried to perfection.

Very cozy atmosphere with really delicious Vietnamese food. The price/performance ratio is great. I can only recommend it for lovers of Asian cuisine, a cozy meal for two or a family/friends get-together. You are served politely and the food comes within a short time. Again any time !

Really authentic, the Pho Bo was super delicious! Fast and attentive service.

very delicious and authentic vietnamese food! the vietnamese iced coffee was also very good i would defenitely recommend!

Food is at a good level. The restaurant space is a bit small so it's quite stuffy and smelly. The bad point is that the interviewer is so bad that when you order a dish without hearing your face, it looks like someone owes you a debt. In general, it's an experience, but because of the service attitude, I probably won't come a second time

The Classic Banh Mi includes grilled pork, duck liver, salad and some vegetables. The salad tasted like the canned variety from the supermarket, the bread wasn't hot and crispy and wasn't as good as I expected. However, the 10 euro banh mi can fill me up. South Vietnamese beef pho, that's not what I know. Finally Banh Mi Xiu Mai, it's like the sauce of tomato spaghetti with meatballs served with bread, I don't find it tasty. The service staff is not particularly friendly. The restaurant space is too small and narrow. After eating, your clothes will definitely smell like food

Very tasty and authentic. Quick and fresh preparation and nice atmosphere.

Every time I go there I order the traditional Pho and the vegan Banh Mi - simply delicious! I can only recommend it to everyone.

Very good and authentic Banh Mi and Vietnamese coffee with condensed milk :)

Very nice Vietnamese restaurant. All types of Banh Mi are particularly recommended here. Sometimes there is also Vietnamese egg coffee. That's great too.

Everything was absolutely great. Never had such good sweet potato fries. But the soups are definitely awesome. Thanks to Max for the tip.

Very friendly, very tasty, highly recommended! Unfortunately no card payment possible.

Very cozy place, so nice to sit outside with friends. And tasty. Can recommend for lunch 🤌

The service attitude of the lady wearing glasses does not respect customers, will never come back

The Bánh Mì with shrimp was good, but unfortunately it didn't fill me up for long. The interior is a bit dark, the outside area is beautifully planted and gives the place warmth. I would come again and try more dishes.

I came here for a quick dinner but loved to stay longer. It’s a small but cozy place, tucked in a quiet corner of residential cologne downtown. *cash only* Food quality was excellent! Lots of herbs… just as it should be. I had the bun bo hue, which I found the broth to taste more like pho than it is for bun bo hue - nevertheless, it didn’t matter because the food was simply was delicious! Highly recommended and I will certainly be back again.

Incredible food, bold flavours and quality ingredients. Nice relaxing background music. Nice staff, great atmosphere. I recommend!

Cozy place. Tasty. Nice service. Not crowded

The food was very tasty. Unfortunately the ventilation in the restaurant was not good. Hours later, her hair and clothing still had a strong smell of food.

Food: The vegan Pho Chay is simply delicious! I can only recommend! Ambience: I was here on a Friday at 5:30 p.m. and luckily it wasn't crowded. Unfortunately it dragged and was a bit fresh (in February). There are about 20 seats inside, so it's comfortable to sit next to each other ;) But I would like to come back again and enjoy the delicious Pho.

I love the foods I ordered. We had bahn mi gambas and green papaya salad. So delicious. Price is ok, not the cheapest but it's worthwhile. Bahnmi was €10.50 and salad was €9.50. Recommended 😁 Place is small but cozy.

Time to travel in Europe When I'm bored with local food, I always find pho to eat. Look at information from Google Maps. There are many restaurants that sell pho. But there are often other Asian foods as well. So I chose this restaurant. Because they only sell Vietnamese food. And it was an excellent decision. Because of the beef pho Every piece of meat in the bowl was delicious. Including additional orders of beef tongue and meatballs. Eat until the bowl is finished. You won't be disappointed when you come to eat here.

The Cafe1980 has specialized in a few dishes and this is also noticeable in the taste. If you like Vietnamese cuisine, then this is a must

sehr leckeres veganes bánh mì :)

Super legit viet joint in Cologne! Loved the bánh mi & pho and I am picky & have high expectations ;) Just the smell as the hood is not super strong, so you smell "Vietnamese" after 😁

Very tasty vegetarian pho soup 🍲

What a great little hidden gem. The food was good. Loved the sweet potatoe fries recipe. As a US American from Texas I was impressed with the quality of the food. The Beef Stew was flavorful and I drank up all the water because it was so good. It's no wonder this tiny place is full. My wife is Vietnamese and she also gave it her vote of approval.

Wie immer perfekt, leckere Banh Mis, leckere Pho Suppe und Tagesgerichte. Sehr nette Inhaber und Kellner/-innen.

Bestes Bahn Mi Sandwich in Köln! Schöner, kleiner Laden und freundlicher Service. Faire Preise.

Sehr leckeres Banh Mi. Wir hatten Banh Mi Classic und Vegan, beide haben sehr gut geschmeckt und uns gefühlt nach Vietnam versetzt. Auch, dass es hier Egg Coffee gibt hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Freundliche Bedienung, tolles Essen und Egg Coffee. Fünf Sterne. :)

Very good. With such reviews I was expecting a lot more "wow"..the food and service were good. A tad on the expensive side but worth a visit...

반미클래식이랑 쌀국수 먹었는데 완전 맛있게 잘먹었어요. 잎파리 많이 들가서 향신료 싫으신 분들은 잘 안맞을수 있어요. 근데 전 향신료 러버라서 매우매우 맛있게 먹었답니당ㅎㅎ 여행하는동안 쌀국수 좋아해서 자주 먹는편인데 그저그런데는 리뷰 안쓰고 진짜 맛있었던데만 리뷰 쓰거든요. 추천이용 아 결제는 카드안되고 현금만되요

Classic Bánh mỳ and the Stew Beef Soup are very delicious. The service is also very friendly.

Excellent food, right by our hotel (Hotel stadt München) hardly no wait and reasonable prices. Would definitely come back! Menu in German and English! We had lovely vegy spring rolls and summer rolls and the peanut curry with coconut cream which was delicious

Mit Abstand die beste Nudelsuppe, die ich in Köln gegessen habe. Tapioka Nudeln mit Kalbsragou sind unfassbar lecker !

Wir sind heute aufgrund der guten Bewertung in Google Maps auf das Restaurant gestoßen. Wir können diese Bewertung vollkommen nachvollziehen! In diesem kleinen sympathischen Plätzchen passt Alles zusammen: leichtes und schmackhaftes Essen & freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Wir werden wiederkommen 😊

Die pho Brühe war nicht schlecht, aber auch nicht wow. die Nudeln al dente. Wir haben 1.80 Euro extra gezahlt für Knochenmark und Bällchen, was für dafür bekamen, war leider echt wenig. Die Extras würde ich demnach weglassen. Der vietnamesische Kaffee war viiiiel zu süß und ungenießbar für uns. Wir würden nicht nochmal herkommen.

쌀국수맛있어요! 고기가 마치 스테이크먹는것처럼 양도많고 두꺼워요. 진짜 미디엄레어로 구운 스테이크느낌. 국물도 굿~ 친구가 한국보다 맛있대요. 인생쌀국수. 그리고 여기 비건반미도 맛있어요!

Delicious Vietnamese food in a cozy cafe atmosphere.

The sandwich was so good, I didn't even notice the spice and I cannot stand spicy food

Kleine Speisekarte. Das Essen ist lecker und es ist nicht das übliche Curry. Auf der Karte stehen vor allem die "vietnamesischen Sandwiches". Hier gibt es leider nur eine vegan/vegetarische Option. Es wäre schön, wenn es da mehr Auswahl gäbe.

A golden jewel in Cologne, it's a cozy and amazing place to eat and drink good coffee.

Die Bánh Mi schmecken hervorragend. Die Karte ist klein, aber alle Dinge, die serviert werden schmecken sehr gut! Ein sehr nettes Bistro, das zum Mittag- oder Abendessen einlädt.

Das vegane Bahn Mi und das Pho Chay waren richtig gut 👌 Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Tiệm bánh mì Việt Nam nhỏ, nằm ngay góc phố ngay gần trung tâm thành phố Cologne. + Dịch vụ thân thiện + Đồ ăn khá ngon, khá hợp khẩu vị với người Việt + Giá cả ok + Cà phê ngon - Bên trong nhà hàng hơi nóng và áo quần dễ bị ám mùi đồ ăn - Không thể thanh toán bằng thẻ -------------------------------- Update 10.2023 - Một ổ bánh mì không có giá 3€, khá mắc. - Một bạn nhân viên nữ không bao giờ cười với khách

Tolles Lokal, alles selbstgemacht und gestaltet, wie die freundliche Besitzerin erzählte. Das Bành mí zum Mitnehmen war liebevoll eingepackt und hat super gut geschmeckt. Ich würde wöchentlich vorbeikommen, wäre das 1980 in meiner Stadt. Kann ich sehr empfehlen!

A hidden gem! Located just off the city centre of Cologne. The food was freshly made. One of the best pho i ever tasted. Good portion, good value for money. The prawn avocado sandwich was super tasty serves in warm bread. The place is packed just like in Asia! Good service even though they don't speak English, but they are trying their best to help. The only downside is that you need to pay in cash...could be tricky if you didn't know upfront.

Die Banhs und die Potato Fries sind sicherlich mit Abstand die besten in Köln! Mein bisheriger Geheimtipp für eine Kleinigkeit!

Das Bành Mì ist außergewöhnlich gut. Zudem eines der wenigen Restaurants, welches seit Jahren gleichbleibend gute Qualität abliefert. Absolute Empfehlung! Eine Top-Adresse in Köln oder sogar weit darüber hinaus...

Es lohnt sich. Gute Preise und leckeres Essen

A Hidden Gem for Authentic Vietnamese Cuisine in Köln! The menu at 1980 – Cafe und Bánh Mì Köln offers a delightful variety of Vietnamese dishes, and I couldn't resist trying a few. I started with the Phở Bò, which was a steaming bowl of flavorful broth with tender beef and aromatic herbs – it was simply heavenly. To accompany my meal, I opted for the 1980 homemade iced tea, which was a refreshing blend of flavors that perfectly complemented the dishes. And let's not forget the sweet potato fries; they were crispy on the outside and delightfully soft on the inside – a delightful twist on a classic. One of the standout highlights of my visit was the salted calamansi lime drink. It was a tantalizing mix of sweet and tangy, leaving my taste buds dancing with joy. Despite being conveniently close to the Neumarkt tram station, it manages to maintain a peaceful atmosphere, away from the busy hustle and bustle of the city.

Way too expensive for such a quality. Further no comments.

Très bon restaurant, jolie terrasse. La cuisine est top, tout en authenticité 🙏

Tastes very good, but the portions are super small. Sweet potato fries are literally 14 (!) pieces. The Banh Mi is also rather tiny. So a normal hunger feeling definitely needs at least both mentioned items (or 2 Banh Mi) to be satisfied, which then makes it a little more expensive then. Service is friendly and pretty quick. Only the bill took some time. Cash only (unfortunately). You can sit nicely outdoors.

Sehr freundlich sehr lecker. Wir sind extra dafür von weiter weg dort hingefahren um das Restaurant Cafe auszuprobieren und wurden fürs erste mal nicht entäuscht👍🏻 Sehr höflich und sehr gutes Essen. Danke dafür.

Delicious authentic banh mi and Vietnamese coffee. Recommended!

nice food. enjoy the meal. thank you

Top quality vietnamese with a limited select menu You won't be disappointed here

Une expérience culinaire incroyable ! Terrasse très sympa. Allez-y !!

Das erste mal, dass ich in meinem leben Banh Mi gegessen hab, war hier. Sehr lecker, nur leider etwas klein (ich bin dafür bekannt einen sehr großen Hunger zu haben). Die Süßkartoffelpommes sind ebenfalls stark zu empfehlen. Als Pommesliebhaber, ein Mundorgasmus. Ich war bisschen verwirrt als ich in den Laden kam und das Personal schien auch von mir verwirrt zu sein und hat deshalb seltsam auf mich reagiert. Das war schon ein kleines weilchen her, aber ich weiß immernoch nicht ob es an mir lag oder an ihnen. Trotzdem, nett behandelt worden und ich schäme mich immernoch, dass ich nicht genug Geld dabei hatte, um mehr als 20ct Trinkgeld zu geben.

Es ist wie in Asien die Lokale, einfach aber mit viel Herz ♥️. Einfach gemütlich, mit viel Zeit zum Essen, alles frisch zubereitet, und wahnsinnig lecker 😋.!!! Ich habe es nicht bereut hier her gekommen zu sein!!!👍😊. Ich kann das Lokal nur wärmstens empfehlen!!!

Wanted to like this place more than I did. The positives: really friendly waiter, relaxed outdoor seating area and chilled vibe overall. The not-so-positives: limited menu and food was only OK, took a long time to get our (very warm) beers.

gemütlich, niedlich und sehr leckeres vietnamesisches Essen :) der Mitarbeiter war super freundlich und aufmerksam. wollte ihren Kaffee und Dessert das nächste Mal versuchen.

Das Wochengericht ist mal wieder sensationell lecker! Alles auf der übersichtlichen Karte ist authentisch und erinnert mich an einen traumhaften Vietnambesuch. Das Essen wird frisch in der offenen Küche zubereitet. Eine ungezwungene, stimmige Atmosphäre. Dies alles verdankt das kleine Restaurant seiner immer fröhlichen, wunderbaren Chefin. Danke, danke!

Hier gibt es absolut leckere Bánh Mis mit tollen Salaten oder Süßkartoffelpommes als Beilage und immer tolle Wochengerichte. Ich kann die selbstgemachte Litchi-Limonade und auch den guten Kaffee für zwischendurch empfehlen. Sehr entspannte Atmosphäre.

Der Service war echt schrecklich. Unsere Rechnung betrug 38 € und die Kellnerin weigerte sich, uns den Bewirtungsbeleg auszuhändigen, sondern informierte uns nur mündlich. Auch als wir 40 € gaben, ging sie davon aus, dass Trinkgeld darin war, und wandte sich wortlos ab. Das Essen war sehr schlecht und nicht rein vietnamesisch, den Preis absolut nicht wert.

Overpriced and bad service. Will never come back and won’t recommend any of my friends go for sure

Food: Ordered the Bánh Mì with beef, the coffee with ice and sweet potato fries. • The bánh mì was very tasty. The bread just right when it comes to crust and softness and had a nice taste itself as well. It was filled with pulled beef and vegetables and a sauce that goes well with it. It was served in a small coloured basket with same colour tissues. • The Coffee is delicious, absolute fan. It's a strong coffee with a very deep flavour. It doesn't hit you with the usual bitterness as it's mixed coconut milk. As someone who doesn't like the flavour of coconut that much: you can't really taste it but it does add to the overall flavour. The only bad part is the size of the drink. Could drink at least 3x the amount 😁 (not sure how good that would be for my heart). • The sweet potato fries were also great. Afaik they're fried in duck oil which gives them a very strong, delicious taste. The sauce that came with it was also good but nothing too out of the ordinary. >>> All food was served fresh! Service: • Friendly staff and served our food well. No complaints at all here! Location: • The café is a bit hidden location-wise but it gives it a nice atmosphere. Especially recommended for people who don't like the usual crowded places. • For me personally it gave a very welcoming and warm atmosphere as everything reminded me of my home town. Definitely recommend this place. Ideal for a date as well 🌞

Kleines und authentisches Café. Gibt sandwiches und Suppe. Die Karte ist etwas kompliziert geschrieben aber das Essen top. Der Service ebenfalls. Super nett.

Bestes asiatisches Restaurant in der Innenstadt. Preise NICHT seit Corona unverschämt erhöht. Super netter Service, schmackhaft, frisch, mit und ohne Fleisch, drinnen und draußen Sitzmöglichkeit. Unbedinge Empfehlung!

Lieblingsladen in Köln! Lohnt sich jedes Mal. Klare Empfehlung

Cozy Vietnamese restaurant-bar in a hidden corner of Köln. The service was very nice and politely. Sandwiches around 9€ and Vietnamese Soups 11-14€ I recommend you the Gambas Sándwich and the Bó Kho Soup, and a Vietnamese normal coffee

Hier gibt’s so leckere Pho. Liebe den Laden. Super entspannt und lockere Atmosphäre.

Best vegetarian Pho I have ever eaten

Pho很香 可以加牛舌 可惜Speisekarte经常更换 第一次去的人可能会迷茫

Alleine von weitem schon den Duft der Gewürze zu riechen, war für mich als ob ich gleich in klein Asien eintauchen werde. Die Karte ist sehr gut ausgesucht, der Geschmack unglaublich lecker. In meinem Monat in Köln habe ich mich fast durch die gesamte Auswahl gegessen und war nie enttäuscht.

Tapiokanudelsuppe mit Kalbsragout. Die beste Suppe, die ich je gegessen habe!

Mega Atmosphäre, ziemlich große Portionen und die Preise sind auch ganz gut (der Iced coffee ist eine große Empfehlung)

Absolutely love this place! The space is tiny and there are no frills, but the food is impeccable. We got Vegan Bahn Mi and Sweet Potato fries and were happily surprised with how delicious they were. The Vegan Banh Mi is to die for!!! I ate one there and then got two for take-away because it was so delicious. The fries are a bit expensive but worth it.

Food is gd but only takes cash, i had to leave and hunt for an atm and come back to cold food

Kleines Restaurant mit einigen Tischen zum draußen sitzen. Es gibt leckere Bánh Mì in verschiedenen Varianten. Ideal, wenn man sich am Abend nicht so vollstopfen will. Außerdem gibt es verschiedene Craft Biere. Habe 2 verschiedene Pale Ales probiert, welche mir sehr gut gemundet haben. Viel besser als Kölsch 😉

Das Essen schmeckt gut, Personal war nett, aber um 5 Sterne zu geben, fehlt es mir noch was vom Geschmack her

I came across this lovely little Vietnamese restaurant / café as I was making my way up towards the Neumarkt Square. And I ended up having a lovely evening meal there that same day. For my starter, I decided to go to for the Banh Mi Classic sandwich. The warm baguette was crunchy and light, exactly as expected, and the warm pork was very flavoursome! Along with the marinade, fresh carrot, other veggies and herbs, it made for a very clean and tasty sandwich...I really enjoyed it! For my main, I went for another Vietnamese classic, the Pho Bo, which is a broth based dish with rice noodles, beef, herbs, beansprouts, and chilli. Anyways, the broth itself was out of this world...I couldn't stop spooning it out of my bowl! The meat was melt in the mouth, the noodles were thick and al dente, and the herbs and chilli packed the dish with even more flavour! So, if you love your Vietnamese cuisine, you need to go to this establishment! I cannot praise it enough...if I could, I'd give it 6 stars! ;D Friendly and relaxed service.

Very rich taste. Recommendation: Banh mi, Bo kho, Pho.
