The matcha ice cream drink was delicious and had the right amount of sweetness. The inside had a vintage 1960's vibe which stands out since most cafes nowadays have a modern/contemporary vibe.

it was quiet and chill when we went in the morning. drinks tasted pretty good-i still think about the matcha coco, which is just matcha and coconut water but it was heavenly for the summer weather

A café that stands out from ordinary ones, offering an artistic and unique ambiance. The menu items are also distinctive; for example, instead of a simple chamomile drink, they blend chamomile with other herbal leaves to create something special. Seongsu-dong has emerged as a space known for its fresh and trendy vibe among the younger crowd in Korea, and this café embodies that spirit. The first floor is a clothing store, so you should head up to the second floor to enter the café!

**Tong Seongsu Space - A Must-Visit in Seongsu! ** This place is my number one must-visit spot whenever I go to Seongsu! The drinks are delicious, and the coffee is absolutely wonderful. Just a tip: the "Planet" coffee bean blend has a rich, nutty flavor, while the "Tong" blend is on the brighter, more acidic side. The Matcha Foam Latte is also incredibly delicious! And oh my goodness, the interior design! Every single corner is so beautifully decorated and unique. There's plenty of seating, making it a great place for group gatherings too. It's super photogenic, so it's absolutely perfect for a date! Even the restrooms are so distinctively designed, haha. You've just gotta go check it out!

Very nice cake and drinks. The staff a little colder than expected. But good price and quality. Very artistic cafe.
