Decent food, go well with the drinks. I like my cocktail dry and mine was just like that. I love the seatings and the whole vibe of the place, very cozy and cool. You can see not only the bartenders making the drinks but also the cooks making the dishes. Perfect for a long catching up session!

This bar has the best cocktails I have ever had. They were really well balanced, they were not too strong and at first they seemed a bit pricey but you get a perfect cocktail which is also big in size. The hotdog was lovely, salty and sweet. The kimchi pancake was nice and spicy, and the chicken was super crispy. Lovely staff and a kind owner. The soup wasn't really our style but it seemed very local and prepared with care.

We lucked out, got there at 6pm without a reservation and was able to get a table, and so glad we did. Very friendly staff and all the food we ordered came out stagger which we like. Great good, great drinks, absolutely must try if you are in the area, just make sure to get a reservation it you want to be sure to get in!

Great place for cocktails and small bites! I have been here a fair few times now, and it has always been great! They have a fantastic selection of original cocktails and Korean takes on classic cocktails. All super tasty. It is favourite place for fresh makgeolli, which they make in-house, as well as somaek (soju and beer). They also offer a range of delicious food, from Korean fried chicken to kimchi pancakes. Always been very happy with the quality of food here when I visit. The service is friendly and lovely, with attentive and welcoming staff, making it a great destination for a few drinks in the evening. It remains one of my favourite cocktail places in the area, and I intend on keep coming back.

Found this cozy Korean bar especially for her. Food was great overall. She loved the vibe. Kimchi pancakes don’t disappoint here, had two myself. Good one. In video, sweet chilli Korean fried chicken, veg kimchi pancakes, fish cake soup and cass.

We only stopped in for cocktails, but they were seriously delicious! Great flavours, well-balanced, and beautifully made. The atmosphere was cosy and the service was really friendly and attentive. We’ll definitely be coming back, highly recommend!

Came in for a few snacks and drinks and absolutely loved it. The lady behind the bar was very welcoming and helped us pick some drinks from their unique cocktail list. The food was delicious and we tried some of their homemade makgeolli which was amazing (we had sweet potato). Will definitely be back soon and are going to take on their makgeolli challenge!

Absolutely amazing experience! The cocktails my husband and I had were delicious (we each had two) and all of the food was incredible. We were also able to order Korean whisky and gin, which was a fun experience. To top it off, the staff was incredibly kind and meticulous in making our drinks. We’re definitely planning to return next time we’re in London!
