Vegan Restaurants in Siem Reap

Do you live a vegan lifestyle? Then be sure to check out the following venues, where you can order anything your heart desires…including desserts!
 

Vegan Cheese & More: Roots Cafe

Roots Cafe is one of the most renowned, 100 percent vegan restaurants in Siem Reap, Cambodia. This venue is on the grounds of a garden with a handful of large, wooden tables and chairs to choose from. The entire restaurant is surrounded by green foliage which certainly adds to the vegan vibe, but what really makes this restaurant stand out is its enticing and delicious vegan menu. To every dairy-free vegan’s delight, there are a few items on the menu which feature vegan cheese — a coveted menu item not many of us are lucky enough to indulge in! One of these is the Pesto Grilled Cheese ($8), which we highly recommend.

Be sure to sink your teeth into:

  • Mushroom and spinach ravioli ($6): mushrooms, spinach, onions, garlic and nutmeg in tomato sauce with vegan Parmesan

They also have gluten-free, spicy, and nut symbols so that you know exactly what you’re getting before ordering. If you want to be local, be sure to try their Mushroom and Tofu Lok Lak ($5.50). 
Better yet, this venue uses eco-friendly takeaway boxes (Grace Simple — check them out) and biodegradable everything, from napkins to bags and more. In addition, this restaurant is decked out in foliage-inspired murals all done by expats. If you are an artist living in the city or traveling through, they are looking for even more murals, so be sure to get in contact with them!
Finish your meal with one of their desserts, like the Nutella Pizza ($6.50), or try their cake of the day, which can be oreo cakes, mango and chocolate cakes, fruit cheesecakes, vegan ice cream, and much more.

Vegetarian Food & Craft Beers: Moringa Bar & Restaurant 

Sadly, we tried to visit this restaurant a few times before being told that the restaurant is closed until June 1! With that being said, we are incredibly keen on visiting as soon as it opens. Though we don’t have any insider tips, we heard from a very reliable source that the Sri Lanka bowl is to die for. If you are in town once this restaurant opens, be sure to check it out!

Vegetarian Cooking and Yoga Classes: Peace Cafe

Peace Cafe is located a bit outside of town but is certainly worth the ride. This venue resembles a garden more than a restaurant, and it is a great spot to sit down and enjoy a delicious vegetarian meal. While you wait for one of their tasty dishes, be sure to shop in their artisan store, equipped with handmade Khmer souvenirs. The best thing about this cafe is that it offers yoga classes three times a day. They have everything from Indian traditional yoga to Vinyasa, so be sure to check out their schedule to see which class would best suit you. If yoga isn’t your thing, they also have free monk chats, free Khmer lessons, and vegetarian cooking classes available for booking!
