In this video, I walk along Taphul Road pointing out all of the great food and drink options along the way. This street has an amazing array of eateries and that’s why we come here on average about six nights a week. The choices in this single street are staggering. There are also three of Siem Reap’s biggest hitters in terms of local food:
- Try Me Restaurant: goo.gl/maps/GMDMCGJzUgrkehKE8
- Madam Moch Khmer Restaurant: goo.gl/maps/oYG1poLRgvhCCm7g6
- My Little Cafe: goo.gl/maps/JgDpH7EQ6nbZt7pE7
All of these serve a great mix of Khmer and western food. You can also get juices, smoothies, 75 cent draft beers, cocktails - really anything that is available on Pub Street is available here, usually it’s better quality and for a lower price. Don’t miss out on this amazing food street when you visit Siem Reap.

Great video Claire, really interesting. Didn’t know any of those places as I have always eaten closer to the river…breakfast and lunch in the Old Market in my friend Ratha’s cafe with her mum and Dad and the 4 girls…only 3 last September. My choice…I’d eat at the East tan bul restaurant , love that food , always a treat. I eat salmon raw so I was always wary of the salmon in SR, but in PP my local friend took my to 2 restaurants that had very well priced oysters which we had a number of times., not sure where they were from. My trip to Cambodia in June is getting closer.

You can get a regular guest house room for around $10 USD and coffee is around $1 USD. The temples can be a bit expensive because of the guide and tuktuk, but so worthwhile to see them that way. Thanks so much for watching!

Not sure how you booked but 6 to 10 us for a guest hous with ac and TV 40 to 60 us is quality hotel Do some research or ask on sites for local recommendations as for the temple tours yes expensive but I married a khmer lady so life is easy for me when I visit Cambodia

Thanks Claire. Are all these restaurants locally owned or have expats from (other nationalities) own them? Asking because of the variety of gastronomy.

@ForRiel 19 күн бұрын

Try Me, My Little Cafe and Madam Moch are all locally owned. Source cafe is too, I believe. Eastanbul is expat owned. Not too sure about the rest of them! Thanks for watching.

How much is regular coffee - @ Brown Coffee ? - Are coffee refills anywhere in Siem Reap like in the US just about everywhere ? -- I generally drink several cups !

@ForRiel Жыл бұрын

The smaller coffee places are cheaper than Brown - guess you're paying for the nicer environment. You have to pay each time for coffee here, so factor that in! Thanks for watching.

May I ask, do these Siem Reap restaurants have options for diabetics - such as whole grain rice and bread, beans? I doubt I'd find whole wheat pasta 😅😅

@ForRiel 4 ай бұрын

The places in this video probably don't, but there are a few places such as New Leaf Eatery and Krousar Cafe that are very good at catering for different dietary requirements. They're on Facebook, so you could check them out and message them if you like.

Hi there! We are planning to go to Siem Reap. We have a 5 year old and 18 year old. Just wondering if you can suggest an Airbnb or hotel near this area or area there is lots of street food and a good price pls? Much appreciated hope to hear from you soon!❤

@ForRiel 7 ай бұрын

It's hard to say, and at the lower end of the pricing, things can be pretty rough. The Hotel Somadevi Angkor Resort & Spa is a great option with lots of facilities if you can afford it.

Yes, they can for the short term, e.g. people hire them to go to the temples. Not sure about longer term, but you could probably do a deal with one of the rental places, particularly in the low season.

Unfortunately, not everywhere on this street, but I would say Madam Moch and Try Me would be ok as they have wide entries and no step up from the footpath. The problem arises with all the motor, tuktuks, and cars parked everywhere making access harder.

Dumb question, what about toilets in the area or in the shops, if drinking coffee/beer etc it doesn't take long to go through ones system, hate to be walking 5ks back to accommodation busting.etc etc.

So far looking at videos of SouthEast Asia I'm not very impressed. Aside from a myriad of temples, the architecture is functional and ugly. Cities are overcrowded and lack any sense of aesthetic appeal. Im also sorry to see how westernized it has become.

@ForRiel 10 ай бұрын

We don't find that to be the case, but each to their own. Which cities do you think are overcrowded?
