Clementine is a café sharing the ground floor of a converted old house with a flower shop, on a side street off Seoulsup 2-gil near Seoul Forest. The upper floor is a clothing showroom, not café seating. The signature is an iced Flower Latte topped with small flowers, which five posts price at 7,500 won; teas, ades and cakes such as an Earl Grey lemon tart round out the menu. Post after post describes it as a place people come to photograph the garden and terrace. We read 30 posts from 30 April to 30 September 2026, set aside 3 about other places, and 18 describe actually going.

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
- The outdoor seats are what people come for: eight posts describe the garden and terrace. One lists them as window seats, seats beside the stairs and seats under the stairs. Two weekend visitors found the terrace already full and sat inside.
- Seating is limited: four posts say the room is small. One counts two four-seat tables by the door and six two-seat tables inside; another lists a sofa table, a wall table and two tables by the counter as everything. One late-August visitor left because there was nowhere to sit.
- Six posts mention the big windows and daylight, including light slanting through the front glass in the late afternoon.
- Three posts say it is an easy walk from exit 8 of Ttukseom station, about ten minutes. One says it is not really near a station and took around fifteen minutes. The '627 m' figure in several posts is copied listing data.
5 more
- One post notes a two-hour limit on weekends and public holidays.
- One post notes a one-drink-per-person rule for dining in.
- Two posts note many foreign visitors coming to take photos; one watched a guest photograph for a full hour over one drink.
- Six posts went with friends, the most common pairing; one went with a husband on a weekday and one as a group of three. One visitor with a nine-month-old found the air conditioning cold enough to worry about the baby.
- Two posts call the drinks on the pricey side. On one post's copy of the May 2026 menu board, an Americano is 5,500 won, a latte or flat white 6,000, and the Flower Latte and ades 7,500. A drink plus a slice of the Earl Grey lemon cake (8,500) comes to about 16,000 won.

Two posts say parking at the café is not practical on the narrow lane. Several others carry a copied 'no parking' line, which we did not count. Posts suggest nearby public lots.

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.
From the station
Three posts say it is an easy walk from exit 8 of Ttukseom station, about ten minutes. One says it is not really near a station and took around fifteen minutes. The '627 m' figure in several posts is copied listing data.
Getting inside

| In a basement | yes 0 · no 5 (of 16 posts read) |
| Toilet inside | 5 of 16 posts |
| Separate restrooms | yes 0 · no 1 (of 16 posts read) |
Seven posts mention an upper floor, and all describe it as a clothing shop or showroom rather than café space. One says the only seat up there is a single cramped outdoor spot.
Five posts place the café on the ground floor; there is no basement level.
No post says whether the entrance has a step or whether a wheelchair or stroller can get in — that means we don't know, not that it is fine. The upstairs shop is reached by stairs, and no post mentions a lift.
Five posts say the toilet is inside the café; three point to the pale blue or mint door.
One post says the toilet is unisex with no paper; that visitor could not get a seat, and no other post confirms it.
No one mentioned: Lift to the 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 25 posts we gathered, 9 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.
| 2026-05-24 | 2 posts in one day |
|---|
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
- No post describes queuing. Two walked straight in; one holiday visitor at around 2 pm found it packed and just happened to catch a free table.
- The lemon tart splits opinion one to one: one post found it too heavy, another (calling it a lemon cream tart) found it clean. The names differ slightly, so we cannot tell if it is the same dessert.
- Thirteen posts give opening hours, all 12:00-19:00, nine of them 'daily'. Most are copied listings, and none mentions a closing day.
- Six posts give the same phone number, 0507-1367-3511. No post says whether tables can be booked; one heard that flowers must be ordered ahead, which is hearsay.
- Accounts of the Flower Latte vary: an August post says it is iced only; a May post says the flowers are not edible and the latte arrived lukewarm. The 30 September post says flowers seemed to be in short supply and ordered other coffee — one post is not enough to say it was off the menu.
- We did not count templated posts as visits: two 'Cafe Flex' posts of 24 May list the same five cafés with the same one-line reviews, and a 18 May post says it was written from Naver listing data. An 26 August post tagged with a blogger-programme mission is counted as a visit, but it does not say whether it was paid.
