According to my mom, I am the eat out queen 👑😌. This list has cafés & restaurants around Korea that I love for both aesthetic and quality! Hopefully it can be useful if you ever need a food guide while in the country!

One of my favorite cafe discoveries so far! The pastries I tried were soft and fresh and delicious. I’m a coffee lover too and won’t go back if I can’t trust the quality/flavor to match the hype and aesthetic. Terarosa did not disappoint! Will defini...

I love A Twosome Place ❤️ I go at least twice a week. The coffee is delicious and the atmosphere is both casually aesthetic for socializing and calm for studying/working. The onion focaccia sandwich is my favorite food here!

I 🩷 cafe pomme! This cafe is french themed and is so quaint. It’s never overcrowded and has good music and a calm aesthetic. I go quite frequently and get the pistachio latte every time.

This rainy themed cafe was something I tried from it trending on TikTok. The vibe and atmosphere is so calming and I enjoyed sitting in my corner for a while. I really enjoyed the black lemonade specialty drink I tried!

I spend a little too much time in Ediya Cafés 🙈 I go to a gorgeous 2-story location to do my work prep. I love the vibe and how spacious it is; I never feel like anyone notices when I spend hours there. My fave items are any bagel and coffee!

I 💚 Coffee Sun cafe. They have a variety of Malenka cakes that I’ve fallen in love with and I always get a tea just for the aesthetic glass mugs. The music here is a vibe and there is plenty of seating.

(Disclaimer: I borrowed the pics from Naver because mine didn’t do the cafe justice!) Café Franc is so so cute with all of the aesthetic French inspired decor! The themed cafes in Korea alone are inspiring but this one was quite quaint and had person...

This is a consistent brunch/lunch spot within walking distance of my house. I consider it Korean Italian fusion because I get the bulgogi risotto and garlic bread every single time. So good! 🤩

Eggdrop is a delicious, fast, protein-packed brunch/lunch option. I’ve gone a few times and love the beef teriyaki sandwich with hash browns! p.s. the matcha is not a main advertisement but I go just for the drink bc it is better than matcha at cafés...

By far the best western food I’ve had in Gangneung was at La Montagna. I split the Montagna Clásico sandwich and Alpesto pizza with a friend and we were raving over the flavor and quality the entire time we ate. It was evident that the bread/dough we...

Bread bread bread! Need I say more? I will though… It took me a moment to be able to try this bread shop because the Korean locals were lined up down the street for weeks when it opened. It’s well worth the wait. I can just eat it straight up or toas...

This market was so big and incredible to experience! It’s near Jumunjin beach and you can buy items in the market and take it to local restaurants to be prepared for you. So cool!
