Local tip
Try the latte - and you'll know why people rave about the coffee here!

Drink coffee from Cup of Excellence Winning Coffee Estates! Try the best coffee from El Salvador, Nicaragua and Honduras, etc. Cafe Libre located in Hongdae, not so far from Hongik University in Yeonnam-dong, is perhaps one of the best coffee shops in all of Seoul.

Located in a hard to find place, Cafe Libre has quickly become the preferred choice for Seoul coffee afficionados. They now have a second cafe right behind the Wolkswagen dealership in Itaewon, but their first cafe is the original one and also the most frequented branch - where Seoulites go for the best coffee!

Their opening hours might not be too customer friendly for early birds, however, you gotta check it out! And if you like a 'French Press' or an 'Italian Moka Pot', make sure you bring home some Cup of Excellence coffee beans for your morning coffee - although a bit pricey, it's worth it!
