The Elephant

Walking into Ground zero Feels like an oasis. The quality of training on offer is fantastic! Professional, family friendly and encouraging on all fronts. Make sure you push yourself to get into the ice bath especially if you’ve never done it before (I was terrified but it ended up being a personal highlight of my week). The staff are so sweet and funny you can’t help but smile, be sure to ask them for recommendations. I’ve included some pictures so you can see for yourself how fresh, vibrant and delicious the meals are under the guidance of Chef and Co-owner Braeden. Couldn’t recommend this place enough and I hope life brings me back here sooner rather than later !! Ooo and if you have the chance to catch one of their Sundaze events (last Sunday of the month) then you are in LUCK, what a vibe 🥳

A really fantastic gym with great teaching and an equally good schedule. The owner is a great man as well as being a very high level fighter/coach. He set a great vibe and it made the whole place very friendly and fun to be at. I did Bjj and Kun Khmer and both were great, and the ice bath sessions were very nice in the heat. They also have a cafe to get coconut water or a smoothie after training. I will definitely go back when I’m next in siem reap

I just finished the 28-day retreat at Ground Zero. Overall, it’s been a very rich and well-balanced experience. What stands out the most is the quality and diversity of the classes. Each coach brings a completely different personality and teaching style, which makes the training feel holistic rather than repetitive or one-dimensional. You’re constantly exposed to different approaches, which keeps the body and mind engaged in a very natural way. Bokator brings a strong traditional martial arts foundation. And Chorrvy has a soft but strong approach, indulgent in energy but with high expectations. There is a calm intensity in the way she teaches that helps you progress without feeling pressured. As for the Kun Khmer: Jort offers smooth, dynamic sessions with a strong focus on pad work, making the training fluid and technical at the same time. Dennis is very motivational but also extremel

I had a great time here! I took the Warrior Movement class and Dennis was an amazing instructor who really cared about my experience. I got a good workout in and also really enjoyed connecting with the friendly staff. I hope to come back!

I was immediately welcomed in the warmest way by regulars and borders, inviting me to join them at their table and their training. It felt like walking into a ready made community built for the nervous first timer. I was immediately confident enough to sign up for the month membership. The Kun Khmer training is fantastic, fun, and hard work. Dara (sp?) sits at the end of the session to discuss what went well and what needs work. I’ve never done yoga before but that doesn’t matter as the guidance is gentle and comprehensive. The setting is beautiful, the staff are kind and funny, and the food and drinks delicious. It really is an exceptional space and the most welcome find in Siem Reap. I’m looking forward to going back tomorrow for another double session of yoga and Kun Khmer. 😀

6 STARS! Beautiful! Service wonderful, food delish (could live on the fish and carrot cake - how is that piece of heaven vegan! ) mojitos (brilliant choices and beautifully made) and the coffee were outstanding. Went back and it’s consistently outstanding. Well done! Thank you. I think this might be the best place to eat in Siem Reap.

Our dining experience at HAVEN was easily one of the highlights of our time in Siem Reap. We went as a large group of 20 people, and we were blown away by the execution—every single person's food arrived all together and perfectly on time! Every dish was exceptional, beautifully presented, and packed with flavor. The service was flawless—attentive, warm, and deeply welcoming. A huge part of what makes this place so special is the owner. She was incredibly attentive throughout our meal, and it is so clear how much genuine pride she and her husband take in everything they do here. That dedication shines through in HAVEN. Knowing that this beautiful restaurant operates as a training school to empower local youth, teaching them invaluable life and work skills to secure a bright future, makes dining here feel incredibly meaningful. It’s rare to find a place where world-class hospitality mee

Absolutely amazing food, so good myself and my partner came back a second time! I think it's the best curry I've ever tasted! The concept behind the restaurant is fantastic and the owners are an inspiration! So inspiring that this is a training restaurant helping disadvantaged young adults learn lifelong skills they can carry with them. Knowing that you are contributing a small bit makes the food taste all the nicer 🥰 You have to try!!! 1000%

This restaurant wasn’t on my list. I noticed it while walking to Bean Embassy Roastery next door. The inviting garden setting caught my attention, and since it was lunchtime, I decided to give it a try. The beef salad was beautifully presented, almost like a piece of art on the plate. But what stayed with me the most wasn’t just the food, it was the people. I still remember how warm, kind, and genuinely welcoming they were. I had an issue with my payment at first, and the staff handled it with exceptional patience and calmness. They were helpful throughout and made what could have been a stressful moment feel easy and supported. I’m really glad I ended up dining here and got to meet the owners and the team. You all made my time in Cambodia feel even more special, and it’s the kind of warmth that makes me want to come back again. Sending love from Singapore ❤️❤️❤️

Came here three years ago and came back recently! Delicious food in an amazing garden-vibe ambiance! Staff were very helpful and friendly, and the owners are lovely to come over for a quick chat. I'll come back for more vegan tasting!

Excellent coffee and other beverages. Great descriptions of all the different coffees so you can choose the flavor profile that best suits you. Can choose sweetness on your coffee as well. Food is excellent! Went here two days for breakfast while staying in Siem Reap. Bring a book, enjoy the atmosphere, and have a few drinks between the hot days of wandering. Highly recommend!

Found this place on the Chocolate Garden grounds east of Siem Reap – small house with its own roastery, lots of green space, quiet, family-friendly, far away from the Pub Street madness. Honestly my favourite coffee shop in Cambodia now. Great coffee, good food, really nice staff. Only reason it's not 5 stars: the prices. Like everywhere in Cambodia, way too expensive – the same coffee costs half in Saigon, which makes no sense.

I didn’t know what to expect, but there’s definitely a good vibe here at Bean Embassy Coffee. My first taste deserves a solid 9/10. The only point I’d take off is for the waiting time—I arrived and ordered at 2:35 PM, but my coffee didn’t arrive until 3:02 PM. I’m not sure if that’s just how things usually are here, or if it was just my experience. That said, the coffee itself is excellent. It has a rich aroma that really stands out. They also offered two free cookies, one coffee sticker, and water, which was a nice touch. Overall, it’s a great place to relax—especially if you’re feeling stressed and need a calm spot to unwind. Nice try, and thank you!

Lovely cafe to enjoy a morning coffee and breakfast. Lots of nice spots to take photos. Will be perfect if their aircon is cool during summer time. Was not working well (even though aircon panel showed 16 deg) when I was there.

We were happy to see this place is open at 6am! We came after our sleeper bus arrived and had a great breakfast. Service was very friendly and there are lots of options to sit inside or out. The oat latte was perfect, love that they ask you what strength coffee you’d prefer. A bit pricier than other places. The almond croissant was gorg and the poached egg with hollandaise was also very good. The branding is also so cute and reflects the vibe well :)

The food at Mealea Watbo is unbelievably delicious and beautifully presented. Every dish felt thoughtfully crafted, and from the taste alone, you can tell it was made with love. The service by Kakada truly warmed my heart. Such a lovely young lady who genuinely cares for her customers and gives wonderful recommendations with so much sincerity and kindness. I’m so glad I chose to visit this restaurant on my last day in Siem Reap. They say you should save the best for last… and this was exactly that. :)

The food and the view are so amazing to me. It’s my 1st time eating Cambodian food and from the 1st bite, I was shocked because it was too delicious. All the food are good with best value price ever. I just want to suggest that they should remove fish bones in the fish soup. I was lucky to meet staff Kakada. She’s very attentive and her English is super well. So the whole eating process is very smooth and easy. Thank you very much! Best value restaurant I’ve ever visited.

I’ve been there for the business dinner for the first time and it was enjoyable. The decoration is beautiful with the combination of traditional and modern. The food was great. Should come and taste if you are in Siem Reap.

Everything about our dinner experience was fantastic! The service/staff were all so friendly with recommendations and took great care of us! Kakada Especially provided excellent service and even moved us to an indoor room when the flies came after our dinner. Highly highly recommend a visit to this restaurant while you’re in Siem Reap!

The food was absolutely amazing! We had fish, chicken, and a soup. We also got free dessert which was this amazing coconut ice cream with rice jelly and watermelon. Highly suggest it if coming to Siem Reap!

One of the best restaurants I have ever been to and best dinning experience I’ve ever had. I was worried that they would not have any vegan options, however, they have the best vegan options I have ever seen. There is a whole separate menu dedicated for vegans. The vegan cheese was excellent! I had one of the best pizzas I have ever eaten! Our waitress Sara was amazing! She was so kind, knowledgeable about the menu, helpful, attentive to every detail to make sure everything was perfect, and gave us the best service. The whole staff was kind, professional and very attentive. The atmosphere is elegant, romantic, extremely clean, and unique. Very high end fine dinning feel, however, the price is very nice and the portion size was very good. Best place for a romantic evening, dinner with friends, or with the whole family. 10 out of 10 here!

A wonderful restaurant, it feels just like being in Italy! The staff is lovely, and we’d especially like to thank Sothea, the manager, who kindly treated us to dessert for my birthday! The food is incredible, and the pasta is exquisite. 100% Recommended 🤩

The pasta and pizzas were very fresh and beautifully presented! We had the papadelle, pesto, and pizzas and some cocktails which were delicious. Rosa our server was very helpful and kind especially as we had a toddler with us— she was so sweet and made sure he was entertained and had fun! The ambience was beautiful and very relaxing and elegant as well.

Our FAVOURITE restaurant, even over Italy! We came 3 times in our 5 nights in Siem Reap and wish this place was nearer home (eg in the UK). Everything was perfect, the setting, the food, the service and the prices so reasonable. We would probably travel back here just for this restaurant.

They have an extra completely vegan menu. Had multiple dishes and all were amazing. Great service as well. Highly recommended.

What an experience! Professional and knowledgable guide, Kia who also has a great sense of humour! Brilliant and kind Mahoot who treat the elephants like family. Having seen elephants on safari, the care that these people show towards the elephants in their old age retirement home is lovely to see! Thank you so much for making the last years of these elephants lives as natural, playful and safe as they could be!

Amazing expierience, I touched a living, happy elefant! WITH MY HAAAAND. Couldn't be happier. We did a tour and our guide Kia lifted the expierience to another level. Drpping jokes as easely as dropping facts. He and all personel clearly love their job and the elefants. The tour was paced nicely and we took a break in between so I think all ages could enjoy this daytrip, (wheelchares would definetly be a challenge). No notes, just amazing! (The transport towards the cebter was also comfortable)

Our guide Seth was amazing. And the up close contact with the elephants was a once in a lifetime experience. Also loved their focus on building a sustainable environment where they care for the elephants and the local community. Would give 6 stars if we could. Highly recommend.

I knew it was going to be amazing but it was even more than I could have imagined. We had a small group so it was very intimate alone time spent with the elephants in thier natural habitat. Would definitely recommend this tour. And lunch was absolutely delicious. Excellent experience all around. The place was clean and the guides and staff were wonderful. Thank you for all your work everyone at Kulen!

It was such a beautiful experience, the Kulen team takes very good care of the animals and the expertise and the care for the elephants is evident. Kia was an amazing guide, he was so knowledgeable about all of the elephants from a personal basis and was able to give us the individual stories of how each one came to Kulen. Would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone interested in seeing elephants!

Great café with a huge selection of muffins, cakes, and light meals. We liked it so much that we came back three days in a row, and nothing disappointed us! The coffee is excellent - proper Australian style coffee with great beans, and the matcha was smooth and delicious too. Everything we tried was fresh and tasty, with plenty of options for sweet and savoury food. Prices are very reasonable for the quality and portions. The staff was always smiling and ready to help. Definitely a place we’d miss when we travel back home.

Excellent food, great portion sizes. I had the lentil salad which was delicious and my husband had the vegetable stack which was very tasty. The food is very fresh and healthy. Coffee and drinks reasonably priced. We both stayed a little longer and had a cheesecake each. They are high quality/sensational. WE WILL BE BACK FOR MORE ! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

This place is amazing!! The food menu has a range of options, with the toasties being the best we have ever had! We tried lots of cheesecakes, brownies and muffins and nothing let us down! Service is great too. Would recommend this place to everyone

Stopped by after dinner and absolutely loved it. Such a modern and cozy place where you can enjoy freshly baked muffins and cheesecake bisque. Everything tasted fresh and comforting, and the atmosphere was stylish and welcoming. This sweet stop truly became a memorable part of my Siem Reap trip. Highly recommend it, especially for a dessert stop after dinner!

Delicious food, prepared with care and fresh ingredients! They have a great breakfast and lunch menu with lots of vegan and vegetarian options. The staff is super friendly and it’s cool and calm inside. We got the lentil salad with tasty, crispy spring onion pancakes and the vegetable chickpea fritters. Highly recommend this place for a healthy brunch.

Asked Google to recommend a place with an English breakfast. It recommended here. Although they don't have a traditional English breakfast, their menu is outstanding. I had English muffin with poached eggs, hollandaise and bacon. It was delicious as was the hot latte. It's a stunning place. Staff are excellent too. Definitely worth a visit.

This cafe has a lovely mix of cuisines (western, Asian) with a wide range of coffees. The staff were all lovely as well, very helpful with our questions and in recommendations. I recommend the iced latte with 70% sweetness and the carbonara. The carbonara is a bit thick if you didn't like heavy sauces.

I went to Dialogue for coffee, and didn't eat, but I'm giving them the default 5 for food. Also, I added photos of the exterior because if you look at some of the pics on Google maps, you'll have no idea where it is in the daytime! Despite what the address says, Dialog is right on the corner of 26 and Wat Bo Road. I had the espresso, it was very good.

Dialogue Coffee has great coffee — really one of the best in town! The fried rice was amazing, probably the best I’ve ever had. However, the rest of the food was quite average. One downside was the communication with the kitchen. I mentioned several times (four, to be exact) that I’m allergic to bean sprouts, but two of my dishes still came full of them. It was quite frustrating and a bit concerning for anyone with allergies. Overall, nice place for coffee and a quick meal, but the staff really need to pay closer attention to special requests.

- Food& Drinks: I love the tenderloins plater. The drinks was also good. - Service: Good. - Hygiene: Clean. - Price: If you go during happy hours, it's very affordable. - Location & Atmosphere: the rooftop is very chill. Indoor seats are also available. I would definitely go back. It's also a walking distance to pub street.
