Best Coffee Shops In Seoul

Seoul has a large, district-based specialty coffee scene, with notable clusters in areas such as Anguk/Ikseon-dong, Gangnam, Seongsu-dong, Hongdae, and Itaewon. The strongest candidate shops are independent cafés and roasters that are explicitly described as specialty coffee destinations rather than chains. [1][2][3][6][8]
