CafeBar

Nocturne

녹턴 Nokteon A nocturne is a piece of night music, best known from Chopin's nocturnes; the name fits a place that runs as a café by day and turns into a cocktail and whisky bar at 7 pm.

Compiled from 24 blog posts read in fullSources →

Nocturne is a café-bar up a flight of red stairs on a side street near exit 2 of Hapjeong Station. By day it serves coffee and French toast; from 7 pm to midnight it pours cocktails and whisky. On the menu, plain French toast is 8,900 won, an americano 5,000 won and the signature cocktails 19,000–22,000 won. We read 30 posts from June 2025 to October 2026; 27 describe actual visits (17 to the daytime café, 10 to the evening bar). One was about a piano school playing Chopin's nocturne and was set aside.

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

  1. Thirteen posts mention terrace seating. Two say you reach it through a second door opposite the entrance, and one notes that music plays indoors but the terrace is silent and still. Only one post clearly says she sat out there.
  2. Two posts say the French toast is griddled to order; one of them waited about 15 minutes for it. Seven posts mention that it comes with salt as well as syrup — one warns that the salt pours out faster than you expect, so go gently.
  3. Seven posts describe going alone, five of them to the bar counter in the evening. One read a book at the bar; another worked on a laptop.
  4. Of the ten evening-bar visits, seven mention a free snack: crackers with cream cheese and honey in five posts, crackers alone in two.

  1. Eight posts call it spacious and three mention a high ceiling. Several describe window sofas up front and more two- and four-person tables behind the bar; four posts mention a separate private room.

Where it is

Map showing where Nocturne 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.

Getting inside

In a basementyes 0 · no 7 (of 24 posts read)
Lift to the floor1 of 24 posts
Toilet inside3 of 24 posts
Separate restrooms3 of 24 posts

It is not in a basement. Seven posts describe climbing stairs to get in. The address says ground floor, but the building has a separate lobby level; as one post put it, you go up to what looks like the second floor and are told it is the first.

No post describes entering with a wheelchair or stroller, and none mentions a step at the door. Accounts of the lift differ: an August 2026 post says you can take the elevator up, while a June 2025 post says entry is by stairs only and the elevator is just for leaving.

Three posts say the restroom is inside the premises, and three say it is split into men's and women's.

No one mentioned: Second floor · Ramp at the door · Step at the entrance · Step-free access · Accessible toilet. 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 26 posts we gathered, 2 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

  • Only one post describes the walk from the station in her own words. Lines like '220 m from exit 2' or 'three minutes on foot' are mostly copied from the listing.
  • No post describes queuing. One walked straight in on a weekday at 3 pm. Still, one weekend visitor found every regular seat taken and barely got a spot, another found it nearly full, and one says it was busy even on a weekday evening.
  • Accounts of power outlets differ: one post says there are none under the tables and you need a seat near the wall, while two say every seat has an outlet.
  • The opening hours were given differently over time. A June 2025 post says weekdays from 9:00; posts from September 2025 to February 2026 say 10:00–24:00 daily. Three May 2026 posts say weekdays from 12:00 (one says 12:00 daily with last order at 23:00). From June 30, 2026 the posts are back to 10:00–24:00 daily, café until 7 pm and bar from 7 pm, last order 23:30. Nearly all of this is copied from the listing, and no post mentions a regular day off.
  • The most complete price list comes from the menu copied by one sponsored post in October 2026; its French toast and signature latte came to 16,900 won together. The brownie was 8,000 won in November 2025 and 10,000 won in two May 2026 posts. Whisky prices are listed only as 'varies', so we don't know them.
  • The phone number 0507-1322-6810 is copied in many posts, but none describes booking by phone. Two posts say the private room is booked through Naver.
  • One post (October 2026) discloses sponsorship and one (December 2025) shows a receipt as proof she paid; the rest say nothing either way. The October 9, 2026 post is built from a copied info block and promotional phrasing, so we did not count its claims.
