Vegetarian Restaurants in Siem Reap

Banlle

Banlle
Street 26

Opening Times: 11am-9.30pm every day, closed Tuesday

Banlle is in a peaceful garden setting which also has a modern AC restaurant downstairs and open air seating on the balcony. The menu covers Khmer and Western vegetarian food that is mostly vegan and absolutely delicious, since the recent refurb this is fast becoming our favourite spot in Siem Reap due to the setting, food and ambiance. Banlle should be on your ‘must visit’ list in Siem Reap and make sure to try the insanely good vegan fish and chips made from banana flower.

Ojas Vegan & Vegetarian Kitchen

Ojas Vegan & Vegetarian Kitchen
Chocolate Road 32
Sala Kamreuk
Siem Reap 17254

Opening Hours: 9am-3pm and 5pm-9pm Wed to Sun (closed Mon & Tue)

This is a fantastic new addition to the vegan dining scene in Siem Reap. We heard so many good things about it before our recent trip that we just had to visit and loved everything that we ordered. The extensive menu of vegan and vegetarian options has everything you could want and more. Expect healthy bowls, lots of tempeh, tasty falafels, exciting sauces, dips and much more, all combining to create what is already one of our favourite vegan friendly restaurants in Temple Town. Do not miss out on dining here on your next vegan travel adventure to Siem Reap, this is plant based paradise.

Peace Cafe

Peace Cafe
River Road

Opening Times: 7.30am-9pm every day

Peace Cafe is a long standing 100% veggie restaurant with excellent labelling that points out the dishes that aren’t vegan (plenty of dishes are). The menu is a fairly international mix of everything including yummy brown rice vegan sushi, vegetable tempura, salads and Khmer curries, must try dishes include the ‘Kreung Khitis’ (a curry paste, tofu, peanut and coconut dip with green beans), any of the sushi platters, the tempura and their Vegetable Red Curry with Tofu.

Kang Le

Kang Le
on Google Maps
just off Road 6, towards Phsar Leu
Siem Reap

Opening Times: 7am-9pm every day

Serving Khmer and Chinese dishes offering veggie food including lots of mock meat, soups, fried rice and noodles. Some dishes contain egg (fried egg on top or egg noodles) so order carefully. The food at Kang Le is very cheap and the restaurant is very simple but the food is tasty with our favourite being the noodle dumpling soup for just $1.75.

Cheerful House

Cheerful House
South of Phsar Leu

Opening Times: 7am-8pm every day, closed Sunday

Cheap, tasty, local dishes that are mostly vegan apart from dishes containing egg. The staff are very helpful but don’t all speak great English so ordering can be a bit of a challenge. The crystal dumplings shown below were excellent, but the mock meat and rice dish (which came with a clear) soup had chopped omelette on the sided despite us ordering with no egg and having visited a few times previously…

Vitking House

Vitking House
Phsa Nhe and St 24

Opening Times: 8am-8pm every day

There is hidden egg in so many dishes we never go there any more, so if you don’t want to accidentally eat egg, then Vitking is best avoided. In fact, we ate here for around 6 years, having been told multiple times that certain dishes were vegan before finding out they contain egg. We met with the owners and offered to help them label the menu correctly (free of charge) but they declined our offer. If you’re veggie, this could be an option for you, if you’re vegan then it’s not…

Vegan Friendly Restaurants in Siem Reap

New Leaf Eatery

New Leaf Eatery
behind Angkor Trade Center

Opening Times: 7.30am-9.30pm every day

This is our favourite vegan friendly restaurant in Siem Reap and the only place to go for a full vegan breakfast, do not miss this when you’re in town as it really hits the spot and there are other vegan dishes on the menu including veg and tofu stir fry and an amazing noodle soup. They’ve also added dishes featuring OmniMeat including the curry shown below and a selection of Beyond Burgers that will blow you away. This is a lovely place to relax and enjoy some tasty plant based food in the knowledge that your money is going to a great cause at this ‘not for profit’ restaurant in Siem Reap.

HAVEN

Haven
Chocolate Road

Opening Times: 10am-10pm every day (closed on Monday)

HAVEN is the place to go if you want to eat good food whilst supporting a great local cause. The beautifully designed restaurant (a short tuk tuk ride from pub street) trains and supports vulnerable young people who may be from orphanages or very rural poor areas. The food is excellent, service is spot on and they can easily make vegan adaptions to the menu. Don’t miss their excellent Nom Banh Chok for a real taste of Khmer cuisine…

Little Red Fox

Little Red Fox
Kandal Village

Opening Times: 6.30am-5pm every day (closed on Monday)

Little Red Fox is the perfect place to get a good, pure, clean coffee hit, friendly vibes, community minded folk, great coffee and they have excellent vegan food on their menu, we LOVE the tofu scramble, possibly the best tofu scramble in Siem Reap? Home made plant based milk for your favourite coffee means that if you don’t already have a caffeine habit then the Little Red Fox is the best place to get one!

Vanakkam

Vannakam
The Lane

Opening Times: 10am-11pm every day

Our favourite dosa in town is from Vanakkam where they have an amazing array of vegan friendly indian food, our other favourite dishes include the South Indian thali and the chilli gobi. The father and son are super friendly and we have worked with them to introduce a 100% vegan menu that is now available upon request meaning this is for sure the most vegan friendly Indian restaurant in Siem Reap.

JOMNO Modern Khmer Cuisine

JOMNO Modern Khmer Cuisine
Wat Damnak Market Street

Opening Times: 11am-10pm every day

JOMNO is led by one of the most talented chefs in Siem Reap and his vegan food is sublime and impossible to fault. Add to this, a wonderful new location and it’s easy to see why JOMNO is so popular. As tourists return we guarantee this will be one of the busiest restaurants in Siem Reap, so be sure to make a reservation to avoid disappointment.

Fellini

Fellini
Bamboo Street

Opening Times: 5pm-10pm every day, closed Monday

This is the finest Italian vegan cuisine served in a stunning setting. Fellini not only creates incredible vegan dishes (OMG the lasagna) but they have a whole vegan menu where all of you vegan Italian dreams can come true. We are big fans and have never been disappointed by the vegan food at Fellini, it’s outstanding.

Maybe Later

Maybe Later
Kandal Village

Opening Times: 11am-9.30pm every day

For years everyone raved about Maybe Later and their creative and delicious take on Mexican cuisine. But as vegans, there really was nothing for us that was exciting so we gave it a miss. That all changed recently when they introduced OmniMeat as a vegan meat options and also vegan cheese and vegan sour cream. If you’re craving a vegan Mexican experience in Siem Reap then go and treat yourself to the best vegan tacos and vegan burrito in Siem Reap. Excellent.

Kebab & Falafel Time

Kebab & Falafel Time
Preah Sangreach Tep Vong St
Siem Reap 171201

Opening Times: 7am-10pm every day

Moved from their original location near Sok San Road, Kebab & Falafel Time serves homemade vegan falafels in home made wraps that are great value for money. Choose from a selection of salads and sauces to add to ‘pimp’ your wrap and you’ll get your falafel fix for sure. They’ve also got a homemade vegan burger with vegan cheese, and gyoza type veggie dumplings too, either steamed or fried. Value for money option that is worth a visit.

Elia Greek Kitchen

Elia Greek Kitchen
Steet 9, Mondul 1

Opening Times: 11am-11pm every day

Located on the busy Sok San road amongst many bars and restaurants this place stands out. Bright and clean interior with friendly staff and a menu with a few clearly marked veggie and vegan options. The vegan souvlaki with home made (and delicious) chips is a favourite of ours and good value for money at just $4.50. They’ve recently added lots of new vegan options including vine leaves and an insanely good ‘rizogalo’ on the dessert menu, did someone say vegan dessert?!

Footprints

Footprints
Street 26

Opening Times: 6.30am-10pm every day

Footprints is a socially conscious cafe that opened in 2016 with a number of vegan dishes on the menu including possibly the best Cambodian Vegetarian Curry in town (served with brown rice) and also a delicious Vegan Pasta amongst other plant based options. They also serve ‘Sundowners’ $1.50 cocktails every evening which is well worth checking out.

Gelato Lab

Gelato Lab
Alley West

Opening Times: 9am-11.30pm every day

When you want a little sweet treat and you’re wandering around the Pub Street area, there’s no better place to go than Gelato Lab who have an entire menu of vegan sorbets. If you can’t decide which flavour to try, they’re always happy to let you sample first. We love the fresh fruity cavours as well as the decadent chocolate sorbet.

Baby Elephant

Baby Elephant Boutique Hotel
Street 53

A great option for somewhere to stay in Siem Reap if you are vegan is the Baby Elephant Boutique Hotel where you can eat a choice of healthy vegan bowls, tasty vegan burgers plus delicious spring rolls, vegan pastas, tofu ‘fish’ and chips or even have a leisurely breakfast of tofu scramble and home made potato hash before relaxing by the pool. Non hotel guests are welcome, the food is great and the pool is lovely, as are the friendly staff.

Vietnamese Coffee & Noodle Soup

Vietnamese Coffee & Noodle Soup
Veherjen Village
774 group 14
Siem Reap 17252

Opening Times: 11am-9pm every day

One of the best bowls of vegan pho we’ve ever eaten and believe us when we say we’ve eaten it many times all over Vietnam. The stock is made fresh and is 100% vegan with no MSG. When the bowl of steaming goodness arrives you will be amazed at the amount of vegetables, tofu, noodles and tofu skin that Emma has managed to cram into the bowl. A ‘small’ bowl at just $2.50 is possibly the best value vegan meal in Siem Reap. If you think you can finish a large bowl, good luck to you!

Vegan Shopping in Siem Reap

For those of you planning to stay a little longer and with access to a kitchen we hope these spots help you create some home cooked vegan delights. There is an excellent organic fruit and veg supplier called Happy + Co who are currently supplying supermarkets, hotels and restaurants but hopefully their shop will open again soon. In the meantime, every weekend there is an organic fruit and veg market in the Royal Park which is well worth a visit too, great spot to pick up cashews and dried fruit from one of the stalls which is a favourite of ours.

We are also blessed with two excellent artisanal bakeries in Siem Reap. The excellent BREAD HEADZ is a delivery only option but that means that you’re bread is delivered fresh from the oven and straight to your door, don’t miss out on their delicious tortilla wraps and breakfast muffins. The other option is brand new and called The Village Bakery, they are located in Kandal Village and bake some of the finest sour dough breads, and a vegan choc fudge cake that is oh so good. Take your pick, they are both very good indeed.

Finding what you want in the supermarkets can be a challenge as items are often out of stock but at the moment, Angkor Supermarket with multiple locations is leading the way with vegan butter, products from Linda McCartney, Quorn and Amy’s Kitchen. They also have Alpro vegan ice cream in 3 different flavours! There is a zero waste shop at Babel Guesthouse that’s is excellent for everything from insect repellent to shampoo and soaps, supporting them is supporting a cleaner and greener Cambodia which we love.
