Don't know about chess clubs but I know a guy who goes frequently to play at Penh House. Also I have seen people playing at Farm to Table in BKK1.

Also there is The Happy Damrei Boardgames Cafe that has couple of chess sets.

White monkey hotel in Siem Reap has a chess set up, I think there's also a chess meetup in Siem reap, or atleast there was about a year ago. It was run by a russian guy on Sok San road. It's a bit difficult because Cambodians have there own chess game and there's not that many expats that play, or could be bothered turning up, unless they needed the social interaction. In Indonesia all the local dudes played chess, back in the 90's. Over the board is so much different than playing on your phone. It's quite enjoyable to experience the difference. I was pathetic over the board. I got into it a few years ago on chess.com. I heard there's going to be a queen's gambit 2. You hardly ever have a female opponent on chess.com. Ladies, if you want to turn a man on, learn chess!.

Oh, Bella's bar on Sok San Road, almost opposite temple bar, they have a rad chess set behind the bar with magnetic pieces. I played there the other day. It's quite hard to find a chess set in Cambodia, I had one I got from the Chinese supermarket for about 10 bucks a couple of years ago, but it was cheap crap. Playing with a good chess board and pieces really adds to the experience. Maybe that could be a business idea if someone wanted a business visa, importing and selling quality chess sets, or making them. At one point I was considering a business visa by freelance writing a book about a dog who joins a hockey team and helps them win the championship. But that's another story. I've got to learn some more chess lines,
and stop playing bullet chess, I'm too addicted to the fried liver, it's too tempting for a quick ego boost win.
