Awesome three-story coffee shop in Seoul’s Yongsan district. It’s a bit hard to find, you’ll have to turn off the main road between two small produce & fish markets, take a flight of stairs down, turn right and then immediately left to find it (see my screenshot where I drew on the map).
The guy working was super friendly and informative, explaining the espresso choices to me. I ended up getting the HBC roast as a flat white. I went up the spiral staircase to the second floor, where he came to actually finish creating the drink in front of me.
The coffee was really nice, really smooth, and a great experience. The second floor was comfy and cozy, set up almost as a reading room with a small library and large open windows. I also had a look at the top floor, which is a rooftop area (it is very cold in Seoul in January, however, so I exited back to the second floor rather quickly).
Overall, this was a very enjoyable experience that mixed whimsy, coffee knowledge, and the experience of multiple levels that had varying vibes. Loved it!
