Irin Iljan — Restaurant in Seoul

Worse service, very rude staff and does not treat customers fairly.

Had originally planned on staying for brunch, wasn’t so sure of how the system works if I was allowed to order from 1F then go up to 4F and 5F so settled on ordering at the till in 1F then the lady said to find a seat then come back to her after ordering , myself-thinking she already took the order went back to her confidently and told her a seat on the 2F by the window but then I noticed this time she was a little rude and by the sound of it annoyed as well for me as an english speaking customer with very little Korean vocabulary I was still trying to be polite and patient so I asked if I could go up to 4/5F after ordering and she said yes but you have to order again upstairs as they are a different cafe so I said okay then the other barista said there was no ‘Brownflat’ upstairs so I can order from them to bring upstairs, so I did. I went up to 4F and queued outside, sat myself next to the ladies next in line to be seated. Stayed for another 15-20 minutes and then two Chinese individuals came inside without even queuing and was entertained by the staff, went right in to tell them I was in front of these people queuing as the said establishment required and was told by the staff to sit and queue after being overtaken by people who did not even bother to follow rules. I left and would not recommend such service. Do not get me wrong they have really good views of the Eunpyong hanok village but worse experience on a cafe and won’t be coming back. Not worth my money and stress of dealing with this...

Perched atop Eunpyeong Hanok Village, this coffee shop offers a picturesque panorama that's hard to beat.

The interior exudes elegance, complementing the stunning vista of the village below. Sip on a steaming cup of delicious coffee and indulge in mouthwatering cakes while soaking in the breathtaking scenery. However, snagging a window seat can be a challenge, so early birds have the best chance to enjoy the view.

With five floors to explore, each offering its own perspective, the fourth and fifth floors are coveted for their unparalleled vistas. Be prepared to cozy up on floor seating, adding to the authentic experience of overlooking the traditional hanok village.

While the drinks are top-notch, the pricing may raise eyebrows. Opting for desserts alongside your beverages offers better value for money, albeit at the expense of missing out on complimentary traditional snacks. Nevertheless, the desserts are worth the splurge, enhancing both taste and value.

Ultimately, this cafe is more about the view than the culinary offerings, although they hold their own. Whether you're here for a scenic retreat or simply to enjoy a cup of coffee with a view, this cafe promises a pleasant experience. Just don't expect anything overly extraordinary from the beverages—although they're decent enough to complement the stunning...

First of all, I didn’t know that they have no kids policy. But thankfully we still be able to get in on the 4th floor.

The ambiance was excellent, their service as well.

Traditional Korean Rice Cake 💕💕💕💕 Taste like Mochi with Red bean paste, with a little drop of sesame oil & soy powder. Taste great, great texture, chewy. Good, but not that stand out. A little too sweet for my preference.

Kalguksu Spaghetti ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ This is our favorite. My daughter even can finish it alone. She said it was so good.

Almond latte Just great. Almond latte with chopped almond with little dash of salt on the top. The chopped almond add great texture when you drank it. But then again, too sweet for my preference since it already come with sugar in it, so the sweetness take over the coffee. Maybe you could ask for non sugar / separate.

Blueberry Roibust Tea ☕️ (hot) Perfect for winter weather. The acidity, the aroma just blend perfectly.

Especially when you got these kind of scenery. Very cozy. We would spend more time if we could, but since we’re traveling, our time...
