Alpha Bakery & Deli

Want pretty good banh mi sandwich for $5? This is your place. This is not a fancy or trendy foodie deli, this is where the locals go for authentic banh mi, check out and see how much meats, butter and breads they go through in an hour. That speaks volumes about how the locals think of their food.

I got the roasted pork banh mi and it was full of tasty pork, butter and vegetables. The bread could be a little more crunchy and the vegetables would be a little more seasoned. But for $5, it’s damn good.

Every time I’m in Houston I always stop by Alpha bakery. They always fill the Banh Mi with meat and veggies. I always order the combo.

You want a REAL traditional banh mi? The sandwiches are traditional and amazing treat if you’re strolling through the Hong Kong City Mall. They’re all only $5 a piece (Jan 2024)! You’ll love the fresh sandwiches on the baguettes baked that day.

I have been coming here for years for their banh mi. Amazing sandwiches, complete in your hands within a few minutes, and incredibly affordable. They have lots other authentic Vietnamese food ready to go too!
