Cafe Alee

Top choice in Eastern Cambodia


This friendly cafe has one of the more interesting menus in town, including a generous smattering of vegetarian options, a hearty lasagne and the full gamut of Khmer food. Be sure to check the exciting specials board. It often stays open later if there is drinking to be done.

It also runs a scholarship to send minority kids to college.
