The Foreign Correspondents' Club in Phnom Penh, capital of Cambodia, was a public bar and restaurant along the Tonle Sap river, not far from the confluence with the Mekong river. It is often referred to as "the FCC", or just simply "the F".[1] It is in a three-story colonial-style building. It closed in late 2018 and has been under renovation since. As of April 2025, the building was still standing with scaffolding but the future is unknown.
The FCC's decor featured photos dating back to the Khmer Rouge invasion of Phnom Penh, taken by war correspondents who used to meet at the FCC.
The FCC in Phnom Penh was not a private club, like other Foreign Correspondents' Clubs around the world, but members from reciprocal clubs (like the FCC Hong Kong) got a 10% discount on food and drinks. The FCC in Phnom Penh had nine hotel rooms.
They also have a hotel, restaurant and bar in Siem Reap.
