Pet Sarat

Pet Sarat is a convenience in Kep, Cambodia — one of 8 markets and shops we map across the province, and part of a wider dataset of 218 mapped locations in Kep. In Khmer it would be described as ហាងទំនិញនៅកែប. It sits at 10.48432, 104.31956, which is the coordinate any Cambodian tuk-tuk or PassApp driver can be shown directly if the name is unfamiliar to them.

As a market or shop, it serves both residents and visitors passing through Kep. It has no official website, so opening hours and prices are best confirmed by phone or by asking locally on the day — small businesses in Cambodia change hours seasonally and close for family events and festivals.

The easiest way to find Pet Sarat is by nearby landmarks. It lies roughly 0 m north-east of Old Casino Tours and Travel, and about 0 m north-east of Lady Bug Café, with Kep Sport a further 100 m north-east. Drivers in Kep usually navigate by these anchors rather than street numbers, so naming the closest one gets you there faster than an address.

From the centre of Kep, a tuk-tuk or PassApp ride is the standard way to arrive; short in-town trips generally cost US$1 to US$3, and longer provincial runs are worth agreeing in advance. Rented motorbikes are widely available from guesthouses, and self-driving is realistic on sealed roads in the dry season — less so between June and October, when heavy afternoon rain floods side streets and unpaved approaches. The "Get directions" link on this page opens the exact coordinates in Google Maps for turn-by-turn navigation.

Pet Sarat is recorded as a convenience in Kep. Traditional Cambodian markets start before dawn and are at their best between 6am and 9am, when fresh produce, fish and meat arrive; stalls selling clothing, souvenirs and household goods stay open until late afternoon. Shopping malls and supermarkets keep longer hours, typically 9am to 9pm daily.

Prices in markets are negotiable and quoted in a mix of riel and dollars — a friendly counter-offer of around two-thirds of the opening price is normal. Supermarkets and malls have fixed prices and accept cards. Carry small notes, and expect fresh-food sections to be wet underfoot.

Pet Sarat is not isolated: our map records 8 other mapped locations within a short ride, including Old Casino Tours and Travel (travel agency, 0 m north-east), Lady Bug Café (cafe, 0 m north-east), Kep Sport (clothes, 100 m north-east), Chumnor Kep Café (cafe, 100 m north-east). Pairing a visit here with one or two of those makes a more efficient half-day, especially if you are paying a driver by the trip rather than by the hour.
