Khmer Food | Other Asian Food | Western Food | Vegetarian Food

There are many choices of restaurants for foreign visitors in Siem Reap, from fine dining to local street food stall standards (Toup).

Around the temples there are plenty of small Khmer food restaurants. A few also serve western dishes like pasta. Normally they open from around 7am to 5:30pm and it costs about US$ 10 for two main meals with rice and local drinks. If these restaurants are not having many customers or events, and are empty, you might get a dollar less for your meal if you think they are too pricey (need to 'negotiate').

Small restaurants and cafés usually accept only cash payment. Tipping is generally not required, while some top end restaurants may already apply service (It should be stated on your bills).

Listed below are a few independently selected restaurants and cafés (sponsor free) by www.JoTravelGuide.com. Details mentioned may include its location, operating hours, price range, whether or not booking is required, and so on.

As a reference, a bottle of mineral water costs around 2000 Riel, a can of soft drink costs around US$ 1, a can of beer around 5,000 Riel (about US$ 1.25) and for those who smoke, a pack of Marlboro costs around US$ 1. However, these prices really depend on where you get them. For example, in a nice restaurant, a beer can be as 'high' as US$ 2 per can. Currency exchange information in Siem Reap, Cambodia..
