Why Choose Fresh Chilli Deli?

About Fresh Chilli Deli

If you're after a banh mi in St Albans, Fresh Chilli Deli is a name that comes up quickly. It's an unassuming counter-serve Vietnamese deli, and the rolls are the main event: pork, chicken, and a cold-meat version that locals recommend if you want something fresh and light. Plenty of people point to the barbecue and roast pork in particular, along with the pate and the Vietnamese ice coffee. There are other Vietnamese breads and pork buns on the counter too.

We hear the bread is reliably crunchy, and the service is quick even when the queue runs out the door. It moves fast, and people who've been going for years say the wait is part of the deal. One regular drives in from Manor Lakes just to get their fix, and others will tell you it beats the Sunshine shop for size and value. Prices are generally seen as fair for what you get, and one local called a roll and a can of drink a bargain.

Being honest, opinion isn't entirely uniform. Some say the fillings can vary depending on who's making your roll, and a few have found them a touch light on sauce or chilli. If you're particular about heat, tell them when you order (people do ask for no chilli, and it's worth double-checking your roll when you pick it up in the busy periods). One longtime regular reckons the meat has been drier of late, though others still rave about it.

If you'd rather not queue, they take online orders for pick-up and delivery. There's also coffee, breakfast, brunch and lunch trade, some seating including outdoor tables, an accessible entrance and car park, and free street parking nearby. They accept cards and mobile payments. They open early and run through the day, so check the hours before you head in.

For a fast, tasty Vietnamese roll in St Albans, expect a line at peak times and a counter that keeps it moving.
