Anthracite Coffee Seogyo

Cafe design was super peaceful, imitating the likes of a tranquil Japanese bonsai garden. There are 3-levels to this cafe, main ordering station is at level 2. It is a self-service cafe, staff seemed really cold and dislike tourists, it seemed like she gave us a side eye and didn’t want to answer any questions that we ask regarding the food/drinks. Desserts and pastries were displayed for patrons to view. Would come back for the views but wouldn’t come back due to the staff. Drinks were mid. That said, there are tons of other cafes that offer good views too so probably won’t recommend or come back on purpose.

Place is always full of people going in and out. The staff is ok.. they are kinder than the ones in hannam. But what anthracite have in common is the non-service oriented staff - probably because it’s such a busy place. Other than that it’s comfortable, half of the people are always people doing work. The outdoor patio outside is great overlooking the small garden. Drinks are great and beans are great. I always buy a lot here

Honestly, u come to this place for 2 things, the coffee and the space. Everything else, pastry, service etc u can put that all away. The space itself is very spacious and impressive. Mulitple photo spots inside and outside the 3 storey cafe. Atmosphere was zen and peaceful. Coffee was amazing, worth a visit on that alone. Skip the pastries, ignore the gloomy faced servers, one can still have a good time here.

It’s a piece of art by itself! Love my single-origin, paired with orange carrot cake. Great match. It’d be much better without disgusted content creators.

We arrived there as their first guest of the day. The place is peaceful, staff just finished setting up. There are limited options for pastries and desserts but the coffee is just definitely unbeatable. Love the way they brewed espresso with Moka pot for Latte

One of the most peaceful cafes I’ve visited, where they kindly give you a little note (in Korean) to keep your voice down. I really appreciated this, as it allowed me to truly relax and eased my anxiety. The interior is exceptional, and the exterior is a lush green garden, beautifully framed by large windows. No music is played here, which I absolutely loved. A refreshing change.

Our first stop in Seoul was anthracite Fresh off the plane we were hungry and need coffee to wake us up. This place was wonderful , good coffee, nice atmosphere and the focaccia bread is the best I’ve had in Korea

Cafe mocha is good. Espresso not bad too! Liked the place as it’s giving an industrial vibe
