Patisserie x Roastery imi

One of my favorite spots in Korea for coffee. They don’t have a wide selection of brands, but what they lack in choice, they make up for with excellence. Their beans are rotated weekly/monthly along with their dessert pairings. Minimum one order of coffee per person. I’ve been here now around 10+ times and each time has been a wonderful experience. Hats off to the baristas for being exceptional hosts and providing warm, friendly service. During the summer, they have their special peach desserts which are one of my favorites. Coffee is well poured and if you sit at the bar and ask questions, they are more than happy to answer. Their English isn’t great, but they try (really appreciate their effort) and you can get by. It is really well known and popular in Korea so it’s always busy during the weekend. Be prepared to wait 1-2hours. I usually check in and then grab lunch. You need a Korean phone number to get in line, but if you don’t, they’ll help you out and place you in the queue. They have helped me with that so many times. Once I was late when my turn was up, and they searched for me in the streets and even held my spot until I came. If you are there for the coffee, I suggest their monthly blend. It’s always an interesting pairing with the dessert. I also recommend getting a second cup of their decaf if you’re lingering for a while and want another cup. I usually take a few of their beans home and they were as good when poured at home. I’m always looking forward to going back and seeing what new things they have in store!

A quiet place to have filter drip coffee. Reasonably priced for a good cup of coffee. Not really suitable for big group and family with young kids as they discourage loud convo. You could choose a pastry to pair with coffee. No time limit.

Such a good place. Dessert and coffee flavors are good. They call pairing. The combination of dessert and coffee is very good. The staff explains the food well. A bit pricey, but suitable for the atmosphere and quality of food.

Drip coffee-only cafe. However, this cafe will never disappoint you. The concept of the cafe is to choose a dessert (3 selections when I visited) and they will pair a mariage-coffee. Desserts were very delicate and enjoyable with perfect coffee. It is very hard to find a such cafe knowing how to make a good cup of coffee, plus such pleasant dessert in Korea.

01.12.2019: i come back again for another signature dessert, mont blanc strawberry, and it tasted excellent as usual, light strawberry mousse cover a whole strawberry based on crispy butter tart, just couldn’t be better :) 15.06.2019: highly recommended in terms of service,ambiance, dessert quality and price although i would say the CP value is medium and acceptable due to hand drip Columbia Geisha price at krw 8,000 but definitely worth to come here..

The concept of this cafe is excellent. Specializing in pourovers is a great idea and they execute it perfectly. The kiche glassware adds to the fun and the patisserie they partner with for the deserts do an spectacular pairing. The attention to detail is immaculate and i was impressed. The only things I woukd like to nitpick is that the bathroom isnt the nicest and could use a remodel. The bar is all made out of plywood painted black which doesnt compliment the cafes interior. I hope they transition to a higher quality material to suite the high quality of the cafe. I would love to come back here next time im in seoul and hope I will get a chance to show this to my friends.

Comfortable atmosphere with nice music. Tasteful coffee and teas. Pretty and yummy cakes. I would like to recommend you to come here during weekdays, weekend is quite busy.

Dessert are by seasonal one. The peach is very nice and the matcha latte too
