Great vegetarian and vegan options! - Edit
Literally every single dish on the menu has a vegetarian option AND a vegan option!! Things that are non vegan are obvious and clearly marked.
They have delicious fresh lime juice for 3000 riel, as well as draft Anchor for 2000 :0 can't beat that price. Breakfast has no vegan options but plenty of vegetarian.
I got for dinner the Amok vegan which was very tasty, they also have a Lok Lak vegan which are both traditional Khmer dishes. Plenty of curries, stir fries, and even burritos and burgers. Love this place and highly recommend for dinner!
Pros: Cheap, Loads of vegan options, Yummy
Cons: Outdoor seating could be spruced up a bit

What a great Khmer vegetarian find! The tofu lok lak was really yummy and the tofu amok was delicious with just the right amount of spice. Quick and friendly service. There's separate vegan and vegetarian options of absolutely everything on the menu. Win!
Pros: Vegan and Veggie options for every dish , Cheap, Free boardgames to play while you wait

Great restaurants for vegetarians/vegans + MSG-free - Edit
Vegetarian food is not easy to find in southeast asia, so I was happy to find Ambrosia cafe in Battambang. They have a lot of choices for vegetarians (Khmer dishes, spaghetti, wraps, salad, burger...) and you can also tell them if you are vegan. I asked the friendly waiter if my dish could be prepared without flavour enhancer (msg) and he said they didn't use it at all! :) That means you get cheap, good quality, vegetarian, msg-free food here, which is a rarity in southeast asia. The meals were really good and fresh every time I visited and the staff was attentive, friendly and spoke perfect English. We also chatted to the owner who is a really nice guy from America. 100% recommended :)

Great vegan and veggie options! - Edit
This place was my go to when I spent a month in Battambang recently. The owner and staff are very friendly and will make your meal the way you like it. Even on the top of the menu it says "Let us know if you're vegan". Tofu is the main meat substitution here, but virtually every meat meal they have on the menu is also offered as veg or vegan as well. Definitely worth it!
Pros: Many vegan options, Very friendly Staff, Reasonably priced
Cons: Small
