Most travelers to Cambodia will pass through Siem Reap, as it’s the gateway for the temples of Angkor, the country’s most famous site. But there is plenty more to this city. One of the best things about it is its great food. Here are a few of the best spots to eat and drink in Siem Reap.
Niam Niam
Niam Niam is the onsite eatery of Navutu Dreams Resort, but it’s definitely worth checking out in and of itself. They have a rich menu offering anything from Khmer classic dishes to macrobiotic health foods.
Blue Pumpkin — Angkot Cafe
This bakery and restaurant serves a range of reliable Asian and French meals, as well as baked goods, ice cream, and sweet treats. It had also recently opened a small branch just outside the entrance to Angkor Wat.
Pages Cafe
Pages Cafe is owned by a pair of Cambodian French architects with a passion for midcentury style. This quaint and laidback bar and cafe serves Asian and Western cuisines that depend on fresh seasonal produce.
Elephant Bar
Elephant Bar is Siem Reap’s oldest bar. It is also one of the city’s more elegant spots, where you may want to swap your flip flops for a more dressed-up look.
