Locals DO NOT go to Cafe Onion, Locals go HERE! Cafe Soodal is a trendy and cozy cafe located 5 minutes away from the famous Onion cafe we all know. With its laid-back atmosphere and stylish traditional Hanok interior, it's the perfect spot to hang out with friends or enjoy some alone time. I'm still so shocked that people don't know about it (maybe it's better for the locals). This cafe is quite popular with locals so sometimes it's hard to catch a sit there. Nevertheless, the food and drinks taste as good as the interior! So even if you wait here a bit, it's much worth it than waiting 2 hours at Cafe Onion.
What I recommend:
1. Take photos at Onion, and then come here to enjoy your coffee.
2. The menu offers a variety of delicious drinks, from classic coffees to unique specialty beverages. And let's not forget about the mouthwatering desserts! One of the best here is - '인절미 토스트' 'Injeolmi Toast' (the one from the photo) (Injeolmi is a rice cake made with sweet rice (glutinous rice). It's one of the most popular and common Korean rice cakes). By ordering it you not only get a delicious dessert but also try the taste of Korea! So why not give it a try? Every time I have that toast it makes me happy!
To conclude: Whether you're looking for a caffeine fix or a place to relax, Cafe Soodal has got you covered. So grab a seat, sip on your favorite drink, and soak in the cool traditional Hanok vibes of this hip cafe.
