WILD - Creative Bar & Eatery
@ItchyFeetOnTheCheap
Instantly fell in love with this place. Its chill garden setting is a great escape from the streets of Siem Reap. Their specialty is spring rolls. Ceasar salad summer rolls, greek salad summer rolls, fried rolls with cheese, Mexican spring rolls! What a delicous idea. Great cocktails too!

Cafe Soriya
@ItchyFeetOnTheCheap
Fantastic breakfast. English muffin sandwiches of all sorts. Try the avocado one. The sausage is also great. Coffee and a bacon egg sandwich costs just $3.50

Only ordered from here - never actually visited the restaurant - but the pizza is legit, and the calzones are amazing.

Pomme
@ItchyFeetOnTheCheap
Soon to be the best craft beer bar in Siem Reap. They were once a hostel, but they've converted their rooms to a brewery where they've just started making craft beer. Nice atmosphere. Say hi to Merlin the cat for me.

Gelato Lab

Really good gelato. Chocolate is legit, especially when they combine it with some Kampot pepper.

We ate here for Christmas eve. They had a special menu that was really well thought out and cooked perfectly. Haven't had anything off their regular menu, but I'm sure it's great.

the old market
@ItchyFeetOnTheCheap
Souvenirs, food, coffee beans, clothes. For Christmas we gave each other $20 with the caveat that it must all be spent in this market. We both walked out with some great stuff.

Siem Reap Bike Tour & Rental
@ItchyFeetOnTheCheap
Closest bicycle rental place to the temples. Get a tuk tuk to drop you off here and it's an easy ride to Angkor.

paintings for sale along here, but also the carved leather art
@ItchyFeetOnTheCheap
Great souvenirs along this road to Angkor Wat. Watch for the shiny leather carving store. They are doing some incredible work.
