Vietnamese eatery on Hawkins Street in Port Coquitlam centred on pho and other noodle dishes.
Vietnamese noodle kitchens have become a fixture across the Tri-Cities, and pho has a grammar that regulars know well. A bowl arrives as broth and rice noodles with sliced beef, and alongside it a plate of fresh basil, lime, bean sprouts and hot peppers that each diner seasons in to taste. Pho 51 keeps that tradition at 2160 Hawkins Street in Port Coquitlam, an independent restaurant listed in this directory with a phone number on file for callers. PoCo's compact layout keeps most of the city a short drive from a bowl.
The broth is the center of the craft. It is typically built by simmering beef bones with aromatics such as ginger, onion and star anise, then ladled hot over the noodles so the thin slices of meat cook in the bowl. Menus in this style usually run beyond the signature soup: vermicelli bowls, rice plates and spring rolls often share the list, though each independent kitchen sets its own offerings and diners should check the menu directly rather than assume. A room that stays busy through the lunch hour is usually a sign the pot is worth trusting. The dish rewards a hungry table and asks for very little in return.
In the soft grey weather the Pacific Northwest is known for, a hot bowl of broth is its own argument, and a pho house makes a sensible stop on a rainy errand run. Because Pho 51 is listed with a phone number, callers can confirm hours, ask about takeout and check whether the kitchen is still serving before setting out, which is especially useful around the lunch and dinner rushes when noodle houses do their brisk trade. The Hawkins Street address and postal code V3B 0G0 are available for navigation. Regulars tend to have their own routine for seasoning the bowl, and newcomers can watch and copy.
In the Glenwood neighbourhood of Port Coquitlam.
