The riverfront area is one of the best places to have a drink as you watch people pass by.
Particularly recommend is the area of Sisowath Quay by Mekong River pub/restaurant at the corner of Sisowath Quay and Street #118.

Sisowath Quay, Phnom Penh.

This place is a mixed bag. It certainly has the best rooms out of the budget guesthouses along Boeng Kak Lake, and undoubtedly the best view of the sunset. A great place for a beer as the sun sets - only rivalled by the FCC. However, you must run the gauntlet of the Scotsman who runs the place (who is mad as a box of frogs) and his pack of growling dogs.

It's not for the faint-hearted, and Brian's mad jabber can get wearing, but it's definitely worth a visit. If only for the sunset.

Down the very end of the muddy track along the side of Boeng Kak Lake, past Same Same Guesthouse etc.

Go at sunset, for the view of Wat Phnom from the back terrace, it's magical as the sun sets right behind it.

The food and drink is also some of the best in town.
