Exciting Relocation of Bánh mì Bà Ba in Shimokitazawa

The beloved Vietnamese sandwich specialist, Bánh mì Bà Ba, is thrilled to announce its relocation within Shimokitazawa, set to open on September 1, 2026. Operated by Vietnam Yatai Co., led by CEO Yutaka Tawa, the new address will be 2-28-7 Kitazawa, Setagaya-ku, Tokyo—just a short 30 meters from the previous location.

The major highlight of this move is the significant increase in seating capacity, rising from just 8 seats to a spacious 24. This expansion aims to allow patrons to enjoy authentic Vietnamese culinary experiences, including the famous bánh mì, in a relaxed and inviting atmosphere.

Bánh mì Bà Ba was founded with a vision to bring the casual, vibrant atmosphere of traditional Vietnamese street food to Japan. The restaurant not only serves delicious food but is also committed to supporting children in the northern region of Hà Giang, Vietnam by providing clothing and school supplies. This dedication to community connection and cultural exchange underlines their mission of promoting Vietnamese culture through food.

A Welcoming Dining Experience

The new Shimokitazawa location will enhance the overall dining experience by accommodating not just individual diners but also groups of friends and families. Open daily from 9:00 AM to 9:30 PM, Bánh mì Bà Ba now offers flexibility for various dining occasions throughout the day.

The restaurant remains committed to bringing the authentic flavors of Vietnam to the Shimokitazawa community. Guests can indulge in a range of menu items centered around the iconic bánh mì, filled with savory meats, fresh vegetables, and aromatic herbs. Other delightful Vietnamese dishes like pho and bun are also available, reflecting the rich cultural tapestry of Vietnam's culinary scene.

CEO Yutaka Tawa's Vision

In a recent statement, CEO Yutaka Tawa expressed, “We aim to weave Vietnamese food culture more deeply into the daily lives of people in Japan. With this relocation, our Shimokitazawa location will become a more accessible space, expanding to 24 seats. We invite both long-time customers and first-timers to enjoy our offerings in a welcoming environment. Additionally, we value the connections we can foster through our support of children in Hà Giang, reinforcing not just food culture but the bonds between people.” He affirmed a strong commitment to continuing to promote the allure of Vietnamese cuisine and street culture from Shimokitazawa.
