We were attracted by the novelty of the interior design and decided to have our teatime here. We were not impressed with the desserts. Restaurant is quite small and due to the lack of furnishing, was quite noisy as well.

Best coffee ever. Very cute cafe. Great for kids.

What a unique and cute cafe. Our family loved it and got some lovely photos. The cakes are great, but honestly the iced black sesame coffee is quite possibly the best coffee I've ever had. Just incredible. Everything was fairly priced and when we went...it was actually very quite, which was lovely. Definitely recommend.More

Real Name is Greem Cafe.

Neat cafe for fun photos. Fairly priced, friendly staff, and decent menu. However, it’s actual name is “Greem Cafe” if you’re having difficulty finding directions. I went on a Sunday afternoon and had no wait time as I was seated immediately. About a 15 minute...walk from the Hongik University Metro station.More

Nice, but be ready to wait in line

We were lucky enough to wait in line for just a couple of people to enter to the cafe. We were waiting outside for about 10 minutes. The cafe was rather fascinating inside, however, be prepared that it looks better on photos than in real...life. The coffee and the cakes were surprisingly delicious. On our way out it was a line of about 15 people. Overall it was a nice experience, but be ready to wait in line.More

Unique concept but not worth the queue

Read about how highly raved this cafe was and thought that I need to check it out. Queued for a good one hour and was greeted by friendly staff. To my disappointment, the cafe wasn't as "comical" as I thought it would be. It looks...so much better on photos than to see it with your own eyes. The worse part was, its crowded so it is hard to get a "insta-worthy" photo as well. The drinks were average too and it is definitely on the pricier side. No doubt it is a unique concept and a different experience but I would not visit and queue in the cold again.More

2D cafe, unique design with lovely latte & cake

Cool place for IG spot ! Its look & 2D decor are different from others (but similar to the one in Tokyo) . Coffee latte, matcha & coffee caramel cake are good. 10 mins walk from Hongik University, during the weekend, you may need to...queue outside. Because of many people, you may don’t get good photo spot in weekend.More

it's like to be in a comic..

I saw this place on Instagram few months ago, so I decided to go, once in Seoul. It's not really easy to reach it: once you get off to Metro Station, you have to walk about 20 minutes. It's a really nice and, for sure,...a unique place: it's like having coffee in a comic! Food and coffe are ok, but nothing special.More
