3 Best Restaurants in Kep, Cambodia

A great way to combine seaside eating and fun, especially for families, the Knai Bang Chatt hotel's Sailing Club welcomes all for seafood barbecues, a popular Sunday brunch, and light meals as well as beach volleyball, sailing, Hobie Cat rentals, and kayaking. Linger on until the evening to sip a cocktail and take in the stunning sunset views from this beautifully restored wooden fisherman's cottage. After dinner, the wine and cocktail bar The Lounge, just a few short steps away, is a good spot to while away the night in style.

This small restaurant is a popular with the chic weekenders from Phnom Penh and it's the perfect spot to stop in before catching a boat to Koh Tonsay (Rabbit Island). The handwritten chalk menu features quesadillas, burgers, and grilled sandwiches, served in large, tasty portions. 

In tiny Kep, where you can quickly tire of the Crab Market options or your hotel restaurant, this beachfront spot is a refreshing alternative, serving local Samai-rum-based cocktails and wine in a romantic seaside setting. The artsy restaurant-lounge stands on a terrace in a pretty garden, where you can relax on loungers and enjoy the fresh sea breeze.
