A café on the ground and first floors of 51 World Cup-ro, between Mangwon and Hapjeong stations. You order downstairs; the upper floor holds seating and sometimes a pop-up exhibition. An americano was 4,000 won, lattes and ades 5,000 to 6,000 won, and an ice-cream dessert 6,500 won. We read 9 posts from 30 October 2024 to 12 March 2026, 6 of them by people who went and ate; two about the building's gallery and a pop-up showcase were set aside as not about the café.

Counted from what bloggers wrote in their posts; we did not confirm it with the restaurant. Where the values differ, it may be a change over time rather than a disagreement, so we show when each one was written.
What sets it apart
- Four posts mention the outdoor terrace. One says that although it faces the road, it is screened by the building and trees; another found every customer sitting out there.
- No post called it expensive; two said the prices were good value. One notes a 500-won discount for takeout.

Where it is
We could not find this shop’s own listing on Naver Map, so the link searches for its Korean name around this spot instead.

All six visit posts describe the upper floor. Two remark on how few tables there are for the size of the room, two mention the high ceiling, and one found it cleaner and quieter than downstairs.
The café is at street level and one floor up, not underground; two posts sat downstairs. The basement and upper storeys of the building are a separately run gallery and studio.
No post says whether there is a step at the entrance or whether a wheelchair or pushchair gets in. One mentions stairs inside to the upper floor and that a lift can also be used; another gave up on the upper floor because of the many stairs.
No post says where the toilet is. Separate men's and women's toilets appear only in one post's copied listing.
No one mentioned: Ramp at the door · Step at the entrance · Step-free access · Toilet inside · Accessible toilet · Separate restrooms. That is not the same as there being none — it means we could not confirm it. Worth calling ahead, and do tell us: we will put it here.

Posts that followed a TV spot
Of the 7 posts we gathered, 1 went up on a single day right after a TV spot and show no sign of a visit. They retell the broadcast, so we left them out of the counts.
We do not discard them. That a TV spot produced a burst of posts is itself something worth knowing about a place, and a star rating will not show it.

What we do not know
- The walk from Mangwon station is reported differently: three minutes in one post, ten in another. One writer adds that the café sits back from the street and is dimly lit from outside, so it can look closed.
- No post mentions waiting. One visited around a weekday lunchtime, found it quiet and got drinks quickly; we do not know about weekends.
- Few posts say who they came with; two mention a companion without saying who.
- Opening hours come only from copied listings in five posts: four give 11:00 to 19:00 on weekdays and 10:00 to 20:00 at weekends, while one from August 2025 has weekdays until 20:00. No post mentions a closing day.
- The phone number 070-8858-7775 comes from two posts' copied listings; no post says whether reservations are taken.
