Why it matters
Why Peace Cafe is worth your time
Peace Cafe presents vegetarian food as part of its identity and links to an explanation of why it is vegetarian. For travellers who avoid meat and fish it offers a menu where nothing visible includes them.
Because diet labels in Cambodia are not standard, use it as a good starting point, not a guarantee, and confirm your needs with staff. Its menu is also easy to read for first-time visitors, since dishes are numbered and grouped by meal, which helps when you need to ask about ingredients.

How to experience it
The cafe describes its menu as fresh and healthy vegetarian food. The menu includes vegetable juices, breakfasts such as muesli, pancakes and scrambled tofu, noodle soups, salads, panini and Asian dishes. Several items use milk, yoghurt, butter, cheese or honey, so it is not a vegan menu.
We could not confirm from the menu whether eggs are used in pancakes, crepes or bread. If you avoid eggs, ask staff before ordering; the same applies if you avoid onion or garlic for religious reasons.
It makes a good choice for a first breakfast in town or a lunch after the Old Market. Order a vegetable juice for the heat, and check prices as they are listed in US dollars.
