💫I like the interior because it’s easy to concentrate and comfortable! The sandwich was delicious and the coffee was good too.

I drank Ah at Iri Cafe in Sangsu Station. This is a place taken by a senior designer who stayed at Sangsu Station for 20 years. This place has been in place since 2004. I survived the countless flashes in front of Hongdae. There is a reason. It is a place where you can feel the comfortable and local spirit. The interior is a reflection of modern Korean history. There are a lot of books and the furniture ranges from vintage industrial style from the 1960s to Livart style from the 1970s. It is also a space where people in their 20s and 60s can hang out. It's a place where you don't have to worry about anyone even if you drink a cup of coffee and read a book for a couple of hours. These comfortable places are becoming more precious as they keep disappearing. As soon as I entered, there was a picture of poet Ki Hyung-do on the ceiling. A senior from the JoongAng Ilbo is poet Ki Hyeong-do’s senior by one year. He sang Pongjjak well and composed like that. We called each other for drinks. I miss those days.

It's great for working on a laptop and the atmosphere is calm, so I come here often! There are a lot of people working and a lot of people enjoying drinks quietly, so I recommend it to people who don't like noise. In addition to coffee, there are a variety of alcohol, bakery items, and light snacks, so you can enjoy something to suit everyone's taste!!!!

I wasn't expecting coffee flavor, but wow the latte was delicious. There are a lot of them. The atmosphere is similar to Seochon's Coffee*cup in a retro aspect, although the concept is different. However, in the case of Seochon, the atmosphere was created with miscellaneous items, but the difference here is in the overall culture. Just by looking at the pictures hung on the ceiling, you can get a rough idea of ​​the direction this cafe is pursuing, including sculptors and female novelists. The staff are friendly. Order at the counter and have the staff bring it to you. Clean up yourself.
