About Urban Rolls

Mawson Lakes lunch crowds line up for crackling roast pork banh mi tucked into crusty baguettes with fresh radish, onion, and chilli. This tiny counter runs at a brisk midday pace, serving uni students and local office workers chasing a reliable, budget-friendly feed. Beyond the standard rolls, combinations range from crispy chicken stuffed into brioche to steamed bao sliders and hefty fried spring rolls. Pair a lunch combo with a cold, slow-dripped iced Vietnamese coffee to beat the midday slump.

  • Workday Banh Mi: Piled with crackling pork, daikon radish, onion, and fresh chilli on crisp rolls at an easy price point.
  • Bao & Brioche Spins: Steamed bao sliders and crispy chicken on brioche rolls offer modern variations alongside classic rolls.
  • Quick Midday Fuel: Fast counter service built around midday rushes with combo deals and iced Vietnamese coffee.

  • Flavorful Brioche Roll Variations

    Guests can branch out with inventive crispy chicken brioche rolls prepared with house specialty sauces.

    There seemed to be a sauce or something in both that was different than any Bahn mi I have ever tasted and was fantastic.

Before you head over

Essential tips on lunch timing, takeaway hours, and ordering options at Urban Rolls.

  • Arrive before noon to beat the lunch line

    Queues regularly stretch out the door past 12:00 PM during the midday rush; arrive right before noon to order smoothly.

  • Plan around daytime trading hours

    Urban Rolls operates as a daytime lunch takeaway shop and does not trade for dinner service, so plan your visit for midday smoko or lunch.

  • Explore slider and brioche variations

    If you want to try alternative formats like bao sliders or crispy chicken brioche alongside classic banh mi rolls, review the options ahead at the counter.
