Kampot


Named after the mongoose in Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Book, this riverfront terrace is all about the ambience. It’s also known for its Kampot pepper chicken, burritos, slow-cooked curry and salads. Happy hour from 5pm to 7pm brings two-for-one cheer on all cocktails. This is the best place in town to kick back and enjoy a sundowner.
