Bayon Pastry School Coffee Shop, located along Taphul Road in Mondul 2 Village, Siem Reap, beautifully blends café charm with social mission. This tranquil garden-based venue supports the Bayon Pastry and Bakery School—a non-profit vocational program founded in 2014 by the French NGO École du Bayon—that provides free, year‑long professional pastry and bakery training to around 20 underprivileged young Cambodian women annually, including internships in top hotels, accommodation, meals, English and life-skills lessons.

Since opening the café in 2015, revenues from the coffee shop now fund about 45–50% of the training program. Guests can enjoy freshly baked European-style treats—such as croissants, quiche, paninis, and fruit salads—for good value: a breakfast set around $5 or a generous brunch set for approximately $8–9, including drink and fruit salad.

Reviews highlight its friendly, calm ambiance and top-quality offerings. AFAR’s reviewer praised not only the classic pastries—like financiers, raspberry mousse, and lemon meringue—but also the chance to watch the students work in the kitchen through big glass windows, calling it a “sweet break” and a feel-good experience.

Open daily around 7 AM or 8 AM until about 5:30 PM or 6 PM, the café offers outdoor seating, free Wi-Fi, and a welcoming atmosphere ideal for tourists and socially-conscious locals alike. Whether you’re looking for a tasty coffee and pastry or want to support a meaningful cause in Siem Reap, this place delivers both flavor and impact.
