Good vegan options

This is a lovely cafe close to centre of town but once inside it’s leafy and cool. Seems to only attract tourists.
We purposely came for the vegan fry up (cos sometimes you just have to?!)
It’s really nicely presented and tasty and just what we we looking for.
Nice that the profits are shared with good causes.
If we had more time would have loved to try more local dishes from the menu as lots of vegan items here.

Pros: Laid back, clean and cool

Wonderful vegan options

An array of vegan options.
The vegan ‘fry up’ was super delicious.
I will be back to try something else for sure.
Very calm and chill vibe too!

Good food and ethos

Nice food (a mixture of western and Cambodian) although on the pricier side for Cambodia. Good location close to pub street. Quite a few labelled vegan options. Brown rice was also available which was refreshing after so many meals of white rice The veggie burger was really good as was the homemade limeade. They were also selling ethical/zero waste gifts such as vegan candles.

Amazing meal.

Vegan labeled menu. Staff were able to accommodate my dietary restrictions (gluten-free) and voluntarily substituted other things on my plate so I didn’t miss out. Complimentary water and small green juice. Comfortable space to read a book, browse their social-enterprise shop, or lounge with your friends.

They have a second-hand library where you can donate a book or purchase one.

Nice but not special

I ordered the vegan scrambled tofu with avocado. It was nice, but nothing special. The atmosphere was also not very welcoming, but maybe it was just the day.

UNBELIEVABLE

this was absolutely delicious! I had the full vegan breakfast and the portion size was huge! It was a little pricey but really worth it. The full experience was fantastic l, we received welcome drinks and hot towels as well as little napkins. we all hope we have time to come back again during our stay here!

Pros: lots of options , amazing service , big portion

Cons: slightly expensive

Great for vegetarians, vegans and omnivores

This place offers surprisingly good vegan and vegetarian options!

So often when I eat at a restaurant that offers vegan/vegetarian options, they've just left out the meat/butter and ALL the flavor. It was great to discover this place. I've loved every dish there, including the chili, vegan fry up, and chick pea salad (ok, this one was good but a little boring).

I love going here and I love that it exists.

Pros: Free Welcome Drink!, Nice atmosphere,

Cons: Seats could be more comfortable

Maybe Time To Turn Over New Leaf

I had the avocado and tofu scramble, had a lot of potential but the portion size was really small. Tasted nice but nothing incredible. Though the iced coffee was yummy and the cafe had a lovely atmosphere.

Lots of vegan options, nice atmosphere

I enjoyed an omni meatball stir-fry and a beyond burger. My partner had the sausage rolls twice. Juices are excellent also. British influence on the menu it seems, lots of comfort food available but also local dishes.

Pros: The range of options, Chill atmosphere, Good service

Cute, hip Western Resraurant

Enjoyed an English Breakfast here. Tofu scramble and the fancy coffee were the highlights of the meal. I was really craving a Western-style brunch. In hindsight I think I’d prefer some thing else. Lots of attractive options in the menu, and the food I had was very fresh and well seasoned.

Pretty food and delicious omni-sausage!

We really loved eating breakfast here, especially the omni muffin and omni sausage! They were really tasty, and the food was a good price too. Excellent service!

Beyond Burgers, yay!!!

I’ve been living in SE Asia for a few years and finding a delicious reasonably priced beyond burger has been very challenging. They nailed it! They also serve meat which made my carnivore partner happy. Great menu with lots of yummy options - if we were staying longer we would definitely eat here again!

Great place

Enjoyed visiting this place as it’s a nice setting, has good service and lots of clearly labelled vegan options. We got the pie and mash and the chilli sin carne which were both good. Also got some food delivered, both meals were very tasty, including chips which are not always the best in SE Asia

Really nice place

Lots of different vegan options from local to western food. Very clearly marked on the menu. I’ve tried the Khmer vegetable curry and the spicy beyond burger - both delicious. They also have a great eco friendly and sustainable attitude. Would definitely recommend here.

Pros: Sustainable side , Clearly labelled plentiful vegan options

Spoiled for choice

So many options and very clearly marked menu making it easy to ignore what doesn’t align with a vegan diet. Lovely staff and quiet, calm restaurant. Food was delicious, would definitely recommend and would come back again 🥰

Cons: None

Love this place

Very chilled restaurant, lots of books to read, very friendly staff, and most importantly, really good food. Many items on the menu (roughly 50%) are vegan, and it includes a mix of local and western. One of the best choices in Siem Reap.

Great vegan menu

One of my favourite places to eat in Siem Reap.

I had the omni muffin - like a vegan McMuffin. The fake meat was amazing, would’ve been great with the violife cheese too.

We went back for dinner too and I got the omni cashew stir fry which was very spicy but so tasty. The rice was delicious too. I also got the pumpkin soup which I’m not usually a big fan of but at New leaf it was thick, creamy and smooth, it came with a lovely sea salt focaccia

The latte with soy milk wasn’t my favourite but was still nice

Price is good and there are lots of options to choose from

Pros: Great food, Lovely staff , So many options

The Beyond Burgers, breakfast muffins, Khmer curry, noodle soup, pies and sausage rolls will all make you happy

***UPDATE JANUARY 2023***

You will find Beyond Burgers, breakfast muffins, Khmer curry, noodle soup, pies and sausage rolls amongst other vegan options at New Leaf. All of that delicious vegan food combined with being a socially responsible restaurant that shares their profits with the wonderful staff team and education NGO's make New Leaf a must visit when you're next in Temple Town.

Tasty, easy food

Central location, busy with customers and comfy seats

We had:
The beyond burger & chips
Vegan fry up

Think the burger was better than the fry up, but both were good and filling.
Although note that the burger is much thinner here than the UK (where I’m from)

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Good burger , Central location
