Munich Microbrewery Eon Mall

Set in Tonle Bassac, Phnom Penh, Munich Microbrewery Eon Mall has become one of the neighbourhood's dependable drinks stops. It is the kind of place you end up returning to rather than seeking out once, and it tends to stay busy without feeling rushed.

The food and the setting

The kitchen leans into asian. It sits at the upmarket end of the scale, so it works best for a treat or a special evening. It gets going in the evening and holds a crowd late, with the food menu there to keep you going rather than to be the main event.

What people think

It holds a 3.3 rating across 8 reviews, which is a solid sign for somewhere that is not trying to be fancy. It is worth reading a handful of the recent reviews before you go, since they will tell you which dishes people order twice and which to skip.

The neighbourhood

Tonle Bassac is one of the parts of Phnom Penh visitors actually walk around, and Munich Microbrewery Eon Mall fits the pace of it. Phnom Penh is compact enough that you can pair this with a museum, a market or the riverfront in the same afternoon.

Getting there

A tuk-tuk or a Grab / PassApp ride is the simplest way in. Save the map pin from the top of this page, since street numbering is loose and the name plus the neighbourhood usually gets you there faster. A short walk is fine in the cooler part of the day, but pavements are uneven and often blocked, so most people ride the last stretch even when it is close.

Good to know

Opening hours can shift, so it is worth checking before a long trip across town. If you are building a day around it, aim for slightly off-peak: the room is calmer and the kitchen has more time for your table. Worth pencilling in if you find yourself in Tonle Bassac.
