Lodge 190

(롯지)

Lodge 190 is a hidden gem that even the locals are just starting to discover. Tucked away near the Seodaemun District Hall in Yeonhui-dong, it's a mere 20-minute bus ride from Hongdae. This cozy café has quickly become a favorite among Yeonhui-dong residents. In the spring, the entrance is beautifully adorned with cherry blossoms, adding to its charm. Just a 5-minute walk away is Ansan, a lesser-known spot that, in my opinion, boasts the best cherry blossoms in Seoul.

Remember the café with a waterfall that became a sensation on social media last year? It's conveniently located just a 5-minute walk from Lodge 190. So, when you're in the area to admire the cherry blossoms in a tranquil setting, don't miss the chance to go café hopping too!
