3F/Lobby

3F/Lobby

I showed my friend a picture of a café I wanted to visit, and she immediately suggested we go. The place? 3F/Lobby (Yongsan, Seoul) a café that perfectly matched our preferences.

This spot is quite easy to miss due to its lack of signage. It's tucked away on the 3rd floor of the Haeundae Building, but if you're looking for it, there’s a small signboard on the ground floor to guide you.

Menu


The menu featured a variety of options, including coffee, non-coffee beverages, tea, whiskey, and highballs. At first glance, you might think lattes aren’t available, but if you look closely next to the hot/ice section of each coffee option, you’ll spot them.

The interior wasn’t particularly spacious, but it had a cozy and inviting atmosphere. If the weather had been nicer, the sunlight and the view of the green trees outside would have made it even more beautiful.

Initially, our seating wasn’t the most comfortable, so we moved to a sofa and it was the best decision! This spot was by far the most relaxing place to sit.

Beverage & Dessert

One of the biggest reasons I wanted to visit 3F/Lobby was for its stunning tray presentation! Unlike any other café, they serve coffee in a beautifully curated tray.

It was visually captivating and showed the owner’s dedication to serving freshly brewed coffee with care. They also sell these trays, along with coffee beans, for those who want to recreate the experience at home.

My friend’s Colombian decaf had a milder acidity than expected. Once the ice melted, it turned into a smooth, well-balanced cup of coffee.

The coffee I ordered had a stronger acidity, which isn’t my usual preference. However, like my friend’s, it mellowed out as the ice melted, making it more enjoyable. That said, I’m still getting used to the bright acidity of coffee.

The coffee served over ice spheres was a unique experience, and the beautiful tray presentation at 3F/Lobby made it truly special. It’s definitely a café that stands out from the rest, not only for its coffee but also for its thoughtful aesthetics.
