Salt24 Bukchon 솔트24 북촌점

Salt24 Bukchon is a takeout-only French bakery at 75 Yulgok-ro 3-gil in Jongno-gu, Seoul, about 400 meters from Anguk Station and near the entrance to Bukchon Hanok Village. The counter sells salt bread, plain croissants, salted croissants, filled croissants, and other pastries without a seating area. In the plain croissant, repeated folds separate during baking into visible layers. The outer shell breaks into small flakes, while the inner crumb remains softer and carries the butter. The salted croissant places a distinct salt note beside the butter and functions as the less sweet basic choice. Raspberry cream adds fruit acidity to the laminated pastry and shifts it toward dessert. Salt bread has a firmer, chewier crumb than the croissant and releases a direct butter aroma when warm. Egg tarts combine custard filling with pastry, while seasonal fruit pies focus on baked fruit and crust. Scones provide a drier, more crumbly texture than the layered items. A simple immediate order can use a plain or salted croissant. Raspberry cream and fruit pie suit a sweeter pastry, while a mixed box makes it possible to separate laminated dough, filled pastries, custard, and fruit. Since there are no tables, purchases continue directly into a walk through Bukchon, Gyeongbokgung, or Samcheong-dong. The useful selection criteria are the strength of the salt, whether the pastry contains cream or fruit, and whether the diner wants a flaky laminated crust or a firmer bread texture.
