Cafe Onion

This place deserves its own little shout out because out of all of the delicious bread I have had here, which is a lot, this place takes the crown. Found this insta famous cafe and had to check it out for its hipster artsy interior. It was swarming with people but had huge different rooms to be able to sit in. We ended up finding a room with a nice couch to lay down on.

The whole cafe was an art piece! 

“The building in which the café’s located has a long history of its own; built in 1970’s, it was previously a supermarket, a restaurant, a repair shop and most recently, a metal factory. While the whole space has indeed been restored with ultra-modern features like wide windows, minimalistic furniture, and a well-curated garden, the café’s wide-open interior retains all of its old, rustic and broken-down elements. Just like any trending spot in Seoul, Onion is often seen on the social media and usually busy with young crowds. But because it’s got so much space and many available seatings, you won’t have to worry about waiting to get a table (even if you do end up waiting a little, there’s a bit of atmosphere you can enjoy in the meanwhile).”

 

That Pan’D Or white bread (5,000) is what they are well known for, and is so soft, airy, light, and sweet!!! The other bread (4,500) has walnut and cream cheese filling, and was chewy and a great complement with the other bread. We also got milk tea (5,000) which was nothing too special.
