Seocho-gu — home to Seoul's arts corridor, the Supreme Court, and upscale residential areas — has a refined dining culture to match its address. Garosugil in Seocho is particularly known for its café-lined tree canopy street. Restaurants here tend toward the polished and premium, often with outdoor terraces and wine lists to match.
The space is very large, but the chairs aren't particularly comfortable. Still, it offers a spacious layout for a place in Gangnam. Since this branch lacks a bakery facility, the quality of the salt bread is inconsistent (generally on the worse side). The coffee is tasty, though it might be a matter of personal preference. The takeout discount is a particularly nice feature. There are many paid parking lots nearby, so waiting isn't too inconvenient (though it does cost money).
I think it opened around the end of 2025. The interior is classy, and the tables are spacious, so you won't hear much chatter. ^^; I thought the coffee would be expensive because it's so fancy, but the drinks are cheaper than other places. They have a signature menu and it's really delicious. The coffee beans are so good, you can tell they use high-quality coffee. After stopping by with a friend, she told me she's been buying beans here to drink at home. I've been here several times and tried everything. I haven't failed at anything yet. The signature granita was also delicious, unlike anything I've ever tasted anywhere else! It was truly delicious. I recently brought my parents here, and we had a vin chaud, a Gutte Nutspaener, and an Americano. The vin chaud was perfect for winter. The staff were also friendly and meticulous. I've never found a cafe I really liked, so I always feel like I've ended up in noisy places, but I feel like I've finally found a relaxing and comfortable space. ^^ If you stop by, you'll definitely want to come back. I hope this cafe stays around for a long time. I'll eat well and relax~ ^^
