Coffee Hanyakbang is tucked into a narrow Euljiro alley near Euljiro 3-ga. Dark wood, mother-of-pearl counters and antique medicine cabinets fill the small rooms, linked by stairs.
Coffee Hanyakbang also lists a café on Dongsung 2-gil in Hyehwa, useful around Daehangno’s theatres. Euljiro is the tucked-away original for the old cabinets, narrow stairs and a longer hand-drip stop.
Coffee
The café roasts its own beans and serves hand-drip coffee. Its fuller roasts offer an alternative to the lighter styles found at many Seoul tasting bars.
Food
Hyemindang supplies cakes, tarts and pastries associated with the cafe. Choose from the day’s counter selection to accompany a hand-drip coffee.
What people go for
The room
The entrance and ground-floor counter can become crowded. Stairs and small rooms make this a less convenient choice for a large group or anyone who needs step-free access.
