Every time I walked past Cheonggyecheon, I found myself wanting to stop by Felt (City Center, Seoul), a specialty roastery café. After spending some time at the nearby Ilmin Museum of Art, I finally decided to check it out.

Upon entering, I immediately noticed the large central bar, surrounded by tables and chairs on either side. The café had an unpredictable yet intriguing atmosphere. Minimalist, yet lively.

Sitting at the outermost table, I could hear the gentle sound of the Cheonggyecheon fountain, which added to the calming vibe.

For espresso-based drinks, Felt offered three options. Seasonal, Classic, Decaf.

For brewed coffee, only two varieties were available. Rwanda and Costa Rica.

Since I couldn’t find the exact flavor profile I was craving, I decided to go with a classic Americano instead.

Meanwhile, my hungry friend couldn’t resist the Citrus Pound Cake, and with her eager eyes locked on me, I had no choice but to order it.

​

Felt also sells coffee beans, drip bags, pods, and mugs, all in sleek, modern packaging. The aesthetic design makes them perfect for gifting. A complimentary cup of coffee is included with every purchase of coffee beans!

Latte 5,000 won / Americano 4,500 won / Citrus Pound 6,500 won

We both chose the Seasonal Espresso, which turned out to be a great choice. It had some acidity but wasn’t overly light, making it smooth and well-balanced.

This was an unexpected delight! It had a distinct lemony tang, as if fresh lemon juice had been added. The bright citrus notes paired perfectly with my Americano.

Unless there’s a special exhibit at Ilmin Museum or I happen to be in the area, I probably wouldn’t visit just for the coffee. However, the convenient location and the relaxed neighborhood vibe make it a great place for a coffee break before or after a stroll along Cheonggyecheon.
