About Cliff Cafe & Pho (Pho HoHoHo)

Steaming bowls of homestyle beef pho deliver genuine simmered depth right opposite Arncliffe station. Regulars treat this unhurried pocket as a neighbourhood secret, skipping trips to Cabramatta for tender brisket, golden spring rolls, and fragrant broth served with fresh bean sprouts and proper Thai basil instead of substitute mint.

  • Traditional Herb Plate: Steaming bowls arrive with authentic Thai basil and fresh bean sprouts rather than common mint substitutes.
  • Station-Side Enclave: Steps from the train platforms, providing generous bowls and vermicelli salads without cross-town travel.

  • Traditional Thai Basil Accompaniment

    Unlike places that substitute common garden mint to cut costs, traditional Thai basil and crisp bean sprouts are paired properly with the pho.

    there was actually thai basil instead of mint on the plate, just like it should be

Before you head over

Practical advice on ordering, timing, and portions for your visit

  • Allow Time for Made-to-Order Dishes

    Because this is a purely family-run kitchen where dishes are made from scratch, food prep can take around 20 minutes; plan for an unhurried sit-down meal or order ahead if you are on a tight schedule.

  • Arrive Early for Popular Starters

    Popular quick items like rice paper rolls can sell out later in the day, so visit earlier if you have your heart set on specific cold rolls or starters.

  • Plan for Generous Portions

    Takeaway noodle and combo portions are notably large and hearty enough to split or stretch into two meals, making them ideal after transit or travel.
