Friends the Restaurant

Friends the Restaurant is famous not only in Phnom Penh but across the world. Over 10 years in operation, this vibrant and colourful training restaurant has become a must-visit place on any trip to the Cambodian capital.

Located near the National Museum, it is famous for its legendary frozen shakes and daiquiris and its delicious blend of Asian and Western style tapas.

Friends the Restaurant is run by Mith Samlanh, which has worked to build the futures of former street children and marginalized young people in Phnom Penh since 1994.

Parent organization Friends-International and its partners reach out to over 60,000 at risk children and young people, their families and communities each year supporting them to become productive and functional citizens of their countries.
