Au Cabaret Vert

TOP-X is 668 m north-east of Au Cabaret Vert — about 8 minutes on foot. It is the closest place to the hotel under “bars”.

The next two places under “bars” from Au Cabaret Vert are The Balcony (1.0 km) and Miss Wong Battambang (1.5 km), so there is a choice within a few minutes.

TOP-X is a bar on Road 3 in central Battambang that draws a regular crowd of locals and visiting friends. The space is compact, with seating that visitors describe as a little narrow, but it operates as a proper venue with live music, a range of drink options, and a food menu featuring appetisers and other dishes. The bar opens at 6 PM each evening and stays open until 2 AM.

Visitors consistently praise the prices, which several note are cheap, and the quality of food. The live music and overall atmosphere appeal to groups, and staff are described as friendly. The main caveat is volume—the music is loud enough that conversation becomes difficult, a feature some enjoy but which can isolate solo drinkers, particularly those without shared language with other patrons. One visitor mentioned receiving a different order than requested, though noted the service made up for it. The crowd is predominantly local.

This is a social bar best suited to groups of friends rather than solo travellers seeking conversation. If you're in Battambang with others and want reasonably priced drinks and food in a lively local atmosphere, it's worth the visit. Expect it to be busy, loud, and oriented toward people who know each other. It opens every day from 6 PM, making it a reliable evening option throughout the week.

National Museum is 943 m north-east of Au Cabaret Vert — about 12 minutes on foot. It is the closest place to the hotel under “museums & galleries”.

The next two places under “museums & galleries” from Au Cabaret Vert are HUMAN GALLERY - Joseba Etxebarria Photography (1.5 km) and Mrs. Bun Roeung’s Ancient House (2.2 km), so there is a choice within a few minutes.

The National Museum in Battambang holds a modest collection of Khmer artifacts spanning prehistoric and historical periods. Visitors find pottery, sandstone carvings, statues, and reproductions from the Hoabinhien culture and both Pre-Angkorian and Angkorian eras. The museum is small and unfussy in presentation, with displays organized clearly and labelled in English. Staff are noted as friendly and helpful. Most people spend 30 to 45 minutes here.

Visitors consistently praise the museum as a peaceful, clean space that offers genuine insight into local history and Khmer culture. Those interested in archaeology appreciate the well-organized layout and the reproduction pieces showing daily life from prehistoric periods. The main reservation is scale and comfort: the building is not air-conditioned, which some visitors find uncomfortable in the Cambodian heat, and the presentation is simpler than larger regional museums like those in Siem Reap. The entry fee is 3 USD per person for foreigners, with no further donation required.

The museum opens Monday to Friday from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM to 5:30 PM. It suits travellers spending time in Battambang who want to understand the province's archaeological heritage beyond its colonial architecture and river scenery. Go early in the morning or after 2:00 PM to avoid the midday heat.

The Balcony is 1.0 km east of Au Cabaret Vert — about 13 minutes on foot.

The next two places under “bars” from Au Cabaret Vert are TOP-X (668 m) and Miss Wong Battambang (1.5 km), so there is a choice within a few minutes.

The Balcony is a bar and restaurant in Battambang located in an old house beside the river, with a balcony as its main seating area. It operates sporadically: open Monday and Sunday evenings, Friday and Saturday nights until 4 AM, and closed Tuesday through Thursday. The menu is small but includes burgers, lasagna, and Khmer dishes alongside a drinks selection. The space is described by visitors as a chilled spot with good music and river views.

Visitors consistently praise the owners—particularly noted as Vutha, Kalyan, and Bobby—for being friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere draws a mix of expats and locals, and guests mention it as a relaxed place to unwind after work or travel. However, one female solo traveler reported a negative experience involving unwanted attention from the owner and poor toilet conditions, describing the environment as uncomfortable for women alone. This contrasts sharply with other reviews that emphasize the place as welcoming, suggesting the experience may depend on who is managing when you visit and the clientele present.

The Balcony suits visitors looking for a casual evening spot with a local feel rather than a polished bar. Go on Friday or Saturday nights if you want an active atmosphere, or Sunday if you prefer something quieter. The limited food menu means it works best as a drinking venue rather than a dinner destination. Women travelling solo may want to assess the environment when they arrive before settling in for the evening.

The Fringe Cafe & Yoga Studio is 1.1 km north-east of Au Cabaret Vert — about 14 minutes on foot. It is the closest place to the hotel under “restaurants”.

The next two places under “restaurants” from Au Cabaret Vert are WoodHouse Restaurant and Bar (1.3 km) and Smokin' Pot Authentic Cambodian Restaurant and Cooking School (1.5 km), so there is a choice within a few minutes.

A café, yoga studio and art gallery combined in the heart of Battambang, on Street 2. Visitors find a garden dining area with comfortable seating alongside indoor tables, a menu that mixes Cambodian dishes with Western and healthy options, fresh juices, and a relaxed, creative space that doubles as a community hub. Beyond the food, the venue runs yoga classes, group runs or walks, and a Kitchen Tales tour that takes guests through Battambang's street-food scene and local recipes.

Reviews are consistently positive about the food, singling out the green curry, veggie burger, dirty farmer salad, and the nom pang with tofu as standouts, along with the fresh juice blends and sweet bites for dessert. The garden setting and overall atmosphere come up repeatedly as reasons to linger for hours, helped by available wifi. Service is described as warm and attentive. A few guests note the eggplant dish runs spicy, and the yoga sessions, priced around three dollars, are mentioned as a worthwhile add-on rather than an afterthought.

Open Tuesday through Sunday from 8am to 10pm, closed Mondays, which is worth noting if planning a visit around a specific day. It suits travellers looking for a slower-paced meal or coffee stop with healthy options, those curious about combining food with a cultural or activity-based experience like the Kitchen Tales tour, and anyone wanting to fit in a yoga session or morning walk while in town. The garden seating and workable wifi also make it a reasonable spot to settle in for a few hours rather than a quick bite.

Zodiac Cafe and Movie is 1.2 km north-east of Au Cabaret Vert — about 15 minutes on foot. It is the closest place to the hotel under “cafés & bakeries”.

The next two places under “cafés & bakeries” from Au Cabaret Vert are The Lonely Tree Café (1.4 km) and Cafe HOC (1.4 km), so there is a choice within a few minutes.

Zodiac Cafe and Movie is a cafe in Battambang with an industrial aesthetic and a stated focus on film. The space features distinctive decoration that visitors regularly mention, and the cafe stocks books in Khmer. Coffee is the main draw, priced around 1.85 dollars, prepared by staff who speak English.

Visitors are divided on the coffee itself. Some find it good and well-executed, while others have found it disappointing enough to leave unfinished, so expectations should be modest on this front. What draws more consistent praise is the overall atmosphere and vibe, described as nice for relaxing, plus the friendliness of the staff. Food options appear limited, which a few visitors have noted as a constraint if you arrive hungry. The cafe is open daily from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM.

Zodiac works best as a place to spend an hour with a book or to sit quietly rather than as a destination for a full meal. It suits travellers looking for a local-feeling spot with character rather than a coffee specialist venue, and those who want a calm environment to work or read during the day.

WoodHouse Restaurant and Bar is 1.3 km north-east of Au Cabaret Vert — about 16 minutes on foot. It is among the three closest places to the hotel under “restaurants”.

The next two places under “restaurants” from Au Cabaret Vert are The Fringe Cafe & Yoga Studio (1.1 km) and Smokin' Pot Authentic Cambodian Restaurant and Cooking School (1.5 km), so there is a choice within a few minutes.

WoodHouse Restaurant and Bar sits on Street 2 5 in central Battambang with a menu mixing Western and Cambodian dishes. Visitors find a comfortable space with a well-stocked bar, background music, and a relaxed atmosphere. The kitchen produces food fresh to order rather than from a warming tray. The owner speaks English and French; staff are noted as friendly and attentive.

Across multiple visits, guests consistently praise the quality of ingredients and execution. The French bread sandwiches arrive crispy, the lasagne comes with fragrant cheese and properly cooked pasta sheets, and local dishes like fried eggplant with pork are described as delicious. Noodle dishes arrive filling with visible fresh vegetables. One regular mentioned visiting over several years and returning repeatedly. The bar selection stands out—ice-cold beers and French wine by the glass. A few visitors noted the lasagne's cheese was quite strong, so flavour preferences vary. The toilet facilities are clean, and WiFi is free.

The restaurant opens from 11 AM to 10 PM Monday to Friday, and from 2 PM to 10 PM on Saturday; hours for Sunday are not listed. Prices are described as reasonable. It works for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and suits solo travellers, couples, and groups, though management suggests notifying them in advance for large parties. The location and quiet setting make it a practical choice when you want reliable food and a place to linger in Battambang.

The Lonely Tree Café is 1.4 km north-east of Au Cabaret Vert — about 17 minutes on foot. It is among the three closest places to the hotel under “cafés & bakeries”.

The next two places under “cafés & bakeries” from Au Cabaret Vert are Zodiac Cafe and Movie (1.2 km) and Cafe HOC (1.4 km), so there is a choice within a few minutes.

The Lonely Tree Café sits in central Battambang on Street 2.5, occupying a two-level space with a shop downstairs and a café and restaurant upstairs. Visitors find a menu that mixes local and international dishes—beef loklak, Cambodian chicken, traditional noodles, gazpacho, and Spanish omelettes appear across reviews. The café opens most days from 10 AM, closing at 9:30 PM, though Wednesday hours start at noon. Happy hour pricing on wine and beer is mentioned in multiple reviews.

Guests consistently praise the quality and freshness of the food, describing dishes as well-prepared and flavourful. The staff draw particular mention for being attentive and welcoming. One visitor noted the cappuccino was decent but not exceptional. Availability can vary—one traveller found no draft beer in early April despite other reviews mentioning it, though they were satisfied with the house wine at $2 a glass instead. Prices across the board are described as good value.

The café works well for lunch or dinner in Battambang's French quarter, with menus catering to both local-food seekers and those wanting international options. The setting is described as charming, and reviews note the café supports a good cause, though specific details are not given. Allow time to browse the shop downstairs while you wait, or settle in upstairs for a longer meal. Come during happy hour if budget matters to you.

Cafe HOC is 1.4 km north of Au Cabaret Vert — about 18 minutes on foot. It is among the three closest places to the hotel under “cafés & bakeries”.

The next two places under “cafés & bakeries” from Au Cabaret Vert are Zodiac Cafe and Movie (1.2 km) and The Lonely Tree Café (1.4 km), so there is a choice within a few minutes.

A small breakfast and brunch cafe on Street 106 in Battambang, known for homemade bread and bagels baked in-house. The menu leans Western in style, with set breakfasts pairing eggs and bread with sides such as fresh local fruit, butter or jam, and coffee, plus wider options for lunch and dinner-style meals when needed.

Visitors repeatedly single out the homemade bread and bagels as the standout, often describing them as warm and freshly baked, alongside praise for generous portions that come with free extras like fruit or water included in the set price. Value comes up often too, with several guests noting that a full breakfast set costs only a few dollars. The staff are mentioned as friendly and accommodating, with at least one account of the cafe opening later than usual to fit in a second visit the same day. No significant complaints appear in the feedback, and the overall picture across reviews is consistently positive.

The cafe is closed on Mondays, open Tuesday through Sunday from 7am to 5pm, which makes it suited to breakfast or brunch rather than an evening stop except by arrangement. It suits travellers who want a filling, good-value morning meal with a home-baked feel rather than a quick coffee on the go, and portions are generous enough that light eaters may want to share.
