Ella's Vietnamese Kitchen

“The food is lovely, the coffee is fantastic and the staff are so friendly.”

My girlfriend and I stopped by for lunch and had a great time. We ordered the Biscoff and banana iced lattes, the tofu bánh mì, and the classic pork bánh mì. The drinks were delicious; sweet and creamy, but still with a strong coffee flavour, exactly how we like them. Both bánh mìs were fresh and packed with flavour, with crispy bread on the outside and soft on the inside. The portions and fillings were generous, the service was friendly, the vibes were cosy, and everything felt well worth the price. Looking forward to coming back again soon.

An absolute must try if you’re in Colchester. Food was 10/10, fresh, flavourful and delicious. We had the sharing platter with chicken wings, summer roll (a highlight), spring roll and prawn tempura, all freshly made. I then had a beef Pho and my partner a pork Noodle dish, both were so full of flavour, light fresh perfectly balanced flavours. The staff were helpful and friendly and we were so chuffed that they were dog friendly outside. We’ve not been to the town before but would go back to come here again!

A hidden gem in the heart of Colchester! The prawn tempura, prawn summer rolls, and lemongrass chicken wings were all fresh and delicious. All the food that came out looked amazing! The crème brûlée milk tea was easily the highlight — absolutely amazing. Lovely, friendly staff and very reasonable prices. Definitely recommend!

This is becoming a regular treat for us now and I recommend it to all my friends. The drinks are out of this world - my favourite is the cold milk creme brulee tea. The stews are so flavoursome.. Had pork and beef. And the sharing platter is absolutely delicious. Ella really puts her heart and soul in this place and the food. Service always top notch too! You can’t go wrong by making this a regular stop!
