Full Review
Oscar's On The Corner occupies a corner location at the intersection of Street 104 and another small street, with the layout running open-front Western pub format: bar counter along one wall, indoor seating, and sidewalk tables wrapping the corner position. The setup distinguishes Oscar's from the standard Street 104 hostess bar template; this functions more as a Western pub with optional hostess interaction than a pure girly bar.
The food side is the venue's strongest feature. The menu handles Western pub fare (burgers, sandwiches, fish and chips, breakfast plates) alongside Khmer dishes at fair prices ($4-8 USD per main). The kitchen produces reliable food rather than impressive cuisine, but the quality is consistent and the portions are reasonable. Many visitors anchor their Street 104 evenings at Oscar's for dinner before walking the strip.
The drinks pricing follows standard Phnom Penh rates. Beer at $1.50-3 USD, cocktails at $3-5 USD. The bar program is functional. The corner location provides good people-watching across Street 104, with the sidewalk tables filling first in good weather.
The crowd is heavily older expat regulars based in Phnom Penh, with the longer-stay foreign demographic that the city attracts forming the regular base. Tourists pass through but the regulars dominate. The atmosphere stays calm and conversation-focused throughout the evening. Service handles English well.
