A landmark large cafe near Gangnam Station exit 11, spanning four floors from basement level 1 to a third-floor rooftop. With over a decade of history on Gangnam's cafe street, it remains one of the area's most recognized establishments. Each floor has its own distinct character, almost like visiting different cafes under one roof. Tall trees just outside the windows create a surprising sense of nature in the heart of Gangnam, and the terrace seating benefits from tree shade and a pleasant breeze. The interior features artwork on the walls, wooden tables, and thoughtful lighting that lend depth to the space. Power outlets are available throughout, making it well-suited for laptop work, and the generous seating across all floors accommodates visitors of every group size. Mornings tend to be quieter, ideal for focused work or a relaxed coffee, while food service begins at lunchtime. Coffee prices sit above average, but the quality of the space justifies the premium. Points to note: the wooden flooring shows its age with some uneven sections, and staff service tends toward the indifferent side.
