[2025 Seoul Restaurant] Travel Guide for Cafe Onion (Updated May)

After visiting Seongsu-dong, it is also a good idea to find a cafe to rest. It is also a good idea to go to Onion at Exit 2, away from the crowded cafe street at Exit 3 of the subway. When you enter, get your dessert first, then queue up to order your drinks, and finally find a seat. Although there were a lot of people, the flow was smooth because of the smooth movement and enough seats. Seongsu-dong used to be full of factories, but now it has become a trendy place where young people gather. It is understood that the location of Onion was built in the 1970s. It has experienced the business of restaurant, convenience store, repair shop and factory, like a page of economic development history. After Onion took over, it restored the factory style, retaining the red bricks, iron doors, and mottled paint, allowing this store to blend into the atmosphere of Seongsu-dong. The front building is a store. Going up the atrium stairs, there is an outdoor area where you can feel the atmosphere of the Holy Water Cave. The ruins style of the back building is decorated with soft furnishings, presenting an industrial atmosphere. Thanks to the promotion of IG, the Seongsudong store has become a well-known favorite store for Japanese tourists. A rough calculation during the afternoon period showed that more than half of the customers were young Japanese girls, followed by Korean customers, and there were not many Taiwanese customers. The most famous one is Pandoro, whose golden Italian bread is sprinkled with powdered sugar and whose strawberry tart crust is crispy. It is worth mentioning that it also has branches in Anguk and Gwangjang Market, both of which use the Korean house style and market style to integrate into the local environment. If you have the chance, you can collect some special breads from different branches. 📍Address: 8 Achasan-ro 9-gil, Seongdong-gu, Seoul, South Korea 🕰️Business hours: 8am to 10pm 💰Average consumption: 10,000-20,000 won #2月好去处2025

📍Onion Seongsu Branch This is a photo of when I finally went to Cafe Onion, which I've wanted to go to ever since I found out about it nearly 10 years ago. It's one of the cafes that tourists definitely want to go to! The famous entrance is at the Insa-dong branch, but this is also a nice shop with a tasteful exposed concrete wall. I was alone, but I was able to enter without any problems. It seems that this area of ​​Seongsu-dong has many stores that were renovated from factories (and there is a factory that is still in operation nearby, so the mysterious contrast between the old man in work clothes and the stylish girl is a bit surreal.) I couldn't eat the powdered sugar bread that I had been longing for because of my stomach capacity, so I had a muscat and matcha Danish. The seasonal drinks are also cute! But since I'm eating sweet bread, I had an Americano. It was a nice time before dusk, and the rooftop terrace seats were pleasant. 🌿 Be careful, the stairs leading up to the terrace seats are steep and dangerous. The MD is also very cute, so I bought a drip bag and a mug for home use.

Seongsu-dong in Seoul is a community full of local charm. Today, I'm sharing my pocket itinerary for a one-day trip to Seongsu-dong! 1. Cafe Onion Cafe Onion is located in Seongsu-dong, Seoul, and is a coffee shop with an industrial theme. This café was converted from an old metal factory, retaining its original red brick walls and rusty iron doors, creating a unique nostalgic atmosphere. Cafe Onion is famous for its unique industrial design and delicious bread. The bread in the store is made by the renowned bakery Bread 05. I particularly recommend their Pandoro bread, which looks like a small mountain covered with white powdered sugar, perfect for enjoying with coffee. Additionally, the second floor and terrace area of the café provide excellent photo spots, allowing you to enjoy the food while taking in the scenery of Seongsu-dong. 📍Address: 277-135, Seongsu-dong 2-ga, Seongdong-gu, Seoul (서울특별시 성동구 성수동2가 277-135) 🕰️Business Hours: Monday to Friday 08:00-22:00, Weekends 10:00-22:00 2. Dior Pop Up Store The Dior Pop Up Store is located in Seongsu-dong and was opened to celebrate the 2022 Fall Women's Fashion Show held in Seoul. The design of this store is inspired by Dior's flagship store at 30 Avenue Montaigne in Paris, blending French romance with modernity. The exterior of the Dior Pop Up Store features metal mesh and transparent glass, resembling a theater surrounded by a beautiful garden that combines Korean plants with French garden elements. Inside, the store showcases Dior's latest fashion collections, including the Dior Union women's wear and Book Tote Room bags. Additionally, there is a Café Dior inside, offering a romantic rose garden view, making it a perfect spot for photos. 📍Address: 302-11, Seongsu-dong 2-ga, Seongdong-gu, Seoul (서울특별시 성동구 성수동2가 302-11) 🕰️Business Hours: Daily 12:00-20:00 3. Handmade Shoe Street Seongsu-dong Handmade Shoe Street is the largest handmade shoe industry cluster in Seoul, gathering about 70% of Korea's handmade shoe enterprises, making it the heart of Korea's handmade shoe manufacturing. Handmade Shoe Street retains the appearance of many old factories, full of vintage charm. The handmade shoe stores here offer custom services, allowing visitors to order unique leather shoes according to their needs. Additionally, there are many cafés and galleries converted from old factories nearby, allowing you to enjoy a leisurely coffee time while shopping. 📍Address: 15, Yeonmujang 7-gil, Seongdong-gu, Seoul (서울특별시 성동구 연무장7길 15)

However, when I went to the Angku store on a Tuesday around 3pm, there was a long line! Be sure to try Onion's signature dish, "Pandor" 🤍 It's so delicious that you can eat it all in one go ^ ^ #SeoulCafe #SeongsuCafe #KoreanCafe #AngukCafe #Seoul #Seongsu #Anguk #Anguk #KoreaTrip #SeoulTrip #Korea #OnionCafe #Cafe #KoreaTrip #Seoul #Seongsu #SeongsuDongCafe #Korea #SeoulCafe #SeoulCafé ...

It is totally different from the other popular branch which is located inside a traditional hanok house. The menu is similar and the ordering concept is the same. You will choose your bread and pastry and pay it together at the cashier when you place your drink order. You will also have to find your own seats and this place is so popular and seats are limited. I recommend their cafe latte and sausage buns, it taste so good together. #fallishere #southkorea #seoul #liveyourdreams #takethattrip

#SeoulTrip [Cafe Onion Anguk Branch] Cafe Onion Anguk Branch, which has been very popular since before COVID-19, still has a line. This store is a renovated Korean house, so you can sit on the veranda and relax. The popular item here is the bread d'or, which is topped with plenty of powdered sugar. It was so big I couldn't eat it all, so I took it home and ate it at the hotel. There's a line before noon, so I recommend going first thing in the morning.

#seoultrip Cafe Onion Cafe Onion Anguk in Seoul is a hipster paradise that exceeded all my expectations. The vibrant and quirky decor made it the perfect spot for Instagram-worthy photos. The signature Onion Croissant Sandwich was a flavor explosion, with flaky croissant, caramelized onions, and savory fillings. And the unique Onion Latte, a blend of rich coffee and a hint of caramelized onion, was a delightful surprise. I even joined a calligraphy workshop, connecting with local artists and unleashing my creativity. Cafe Onion Anguk is a must-visit for anyone seeking a fun and Instagrammable experience in Seoul!

Address: 5 Gyedong-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul, South Korea Opens at 7am - 10pm on weekdays 9am - 10pm on weekends TIP: Heading to Bukchon Hanok Village? Then be sure to head to this cafe first thing in the morning to enjoy your pastry breakfast and coffee before heading to the village! Reach early and you'll beat the queue as well! Highlights: As soon as we reached, we were already in awe of the beautiful Hanok style interior. Every single corner was instagrammable, and the smell of baked pastries will instantly make this your favorite cafe in Seoul. We ordered the Fig Pastry, Iced Americano and Chai Latte. Chai wasn't the best, but the pastry and americano was top notch! Rating (out of 5): ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #seoul

#seoul Such a pretty little place. The pastries, breads and other items were so nicely laid out. Very clean and neat. Basically there is a separate section where you purchase your items and then take your tray to a seating area, relax and enjoy. Get a tray, select your items yourself and go to the counter to order drinks if you want and pay. The pastries have been some of the most memorable. The café is themed in the traditional hanok village style, and it has indoor and outdoor seating. The seating area had minimal decor but it was like stepping back into ancient Korea with a modern vibe. Loved it. You can either sit on the floor with pillows (take your shoes off) or on the more modern tables nearby. Nice light music. Fast wifi. I sat for over an hour. Loved the vibe. Not too busy. Staff were super sweet and friendly. But, the queueing time is only good for those who dont mind waiting. Expect a minimum 45-60min wait to get a seat. Another 20-30min to get baked goods and coffee. If taking out, just join the food ordering queue. Regardless, as the cafe culture is strong in Seoul, this is one place that you can’t miss! #korea #vacation #cafe #foodie #coffee #aestheticcafes #aesthetics

You do not waste time waiting The shop atmosphere is in the style of ancient Korea Which is the signature of this branch As for other menus, everyone must try them.

Café Onion is a Hanok-themed, cozy and chic café located in the heart of Seoul’s historic Bukchon Hanok Village, in Anguk. The café boasts a stylish and minimalist interior design, creating a serene & relaxing atmosphere. The café features lots of different pastries, breads and drinks. I will recommend trying the well-known Pandoro, Black Soybean Scone and their Onion Latte. The staffs are friendly and attentive, making this café a great place to unwind and enjoy a light meal after exploring the nearby attractions like Gyeongbokgung Palace. I feel that you could pop by this café if you have the time, as you will need to queue for minimum an hour to get in. #tripblazers #seoul #darwintravel

When talking about Korea, we definitely can’t miss visiting coffee shops🔥🔥🔥 Cafe Onion is a cafe that has been popular for many years ☕️ The most famous one is his super delicious bread that makes people want to eat it again and again. It is nostalgic. 🍩🍰🥖🥨🥐🥯🍞🥞 This time we visited Onion in Seongsu-dong. He is also the first onion! ! ! Featuring abandoned industrial-style decoration, its predecessor was actually a factory that produced metal parts. It was later transformed by designers into its current appearance full of exhaust gas and industrial style, while also retaining many original brick walls. The Holy Water Shop is divided into the first and second floors, as well as an outdoor area! Business is very good ~ there are a lot of people! It is recommended to find a seat first and then go back to the entrance to choose your favorite bread and drinks☕️ The famous Snow Mountain 🏔️ bread has a chewy texture, the white powdered sugar is not too sweet, and it tastes very good overall! The charcoal milk soufflé is also very delicious ~ you can also ask him to help you cut it into pieces! If you can't finish the food, you can ask the counter for a bag to take away. (So… don’t worry about not finishing the food! Just take what you want and pay for it!!)

I went to eat at Seongsu Station Onion Cafe because they said the salt bread was delicious. The bread was good, but the interior was crazy.. The cafe is divided into two buildings and there were more seats than I thought. There's also a terrace. My friends who went said there was a long wait, but I went around 7pm after dinner and was able to eat without waiting~ #CafeRecommendation #SeoulTravel

#seoul Address - Cafe Onion Seoul, Jongno-gu, 계동길 5 Ambiance/Facilities - Hanok-Themed Café Near Gyeongbokgung Palace Highlights - aesthetically pleasing cafe with wide variety of baked goods Avg. Price per Person - $15 and above per pax Rating - 4.5 stars out of 5 stars a must visit cafe in Seoul, visited on a Friday morning and there was a snaking queue to dine in. well worth the wait, the experience was amazing and the food was just as great!

I flew to Korea in early January this year and finally went to the cafe I had wanted to visit for a long time. In addition to the must-order signature snow mountain bread, the strawberry tart is also super delicious🍓 I still miss Taiwan when I return! Not too sweet, just right I ordered a vanilla latte, which was smooth and not too greasy. Actually, Onion also has a holy water shop! I chose Anguo because it is near where I live. There is also Changdeokgung Palace along the way, where you can wear Korean clothes. In addition, Anguk Station is a Hanok style building, so we also saw tourists wearing Hanbok! Anyway, it is a highly recommended cafe 🤩 #Korea #Cafe #Anguk Station #onioncafe

#BreadPilgrimage #OnionAnguk I went at 8:30 AM on a weekday and there was barely one seat left, so I sat down. Wow, it's so popular. The white snow-covered Pandoro is famous. There are many delicious breads such as salt bread, butter, and eggplant pizza. Address: Cafe Onion, 5 Gyedong-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul Opens at 7 AM~^^ Parking: No, 69m walk from Exit 3 of Anguk Station Price: Americano 5,000~ Bread: 3,500~ Various (somewhat reasonable) The interior is unique and Korean because it preserves the Hanok. That's why there were many foreigners.

Went to the highly raved onion cafe in seoul. It took us 15-30 mins plus to get in and the staff were really nice. Food was amazing??!! The coffee is *chef kiss*, honestly so much better than sbux. They had a really nice range of interesting and creative pastries to try. Price wise; it isnt very expensive, comparable to usual cafe prices. To take note its really crowded as the anguk outlet is in the city and near major tourist attractions. The other is in a suburb (so its quieter). Recommend: If you enjoy cafe vibe, a foodie or just a curious cat. Do check them out. Cost: $$

📌Onion Seongsu 📌Cafe, Bakery Cafe 📌Onion, 8 Achasan-ro 9-gil, Seongdong-gu, Seoul Onion Seongsu, which has an industrial interior, is located in the factory street of Seongsu-dong. The atmosphere of the charming cafe is similar to that of the surrounding factories, so you can spend time feeling a unique sensibility, which is attractive! There is also a rooftop on the rooftop, so I recommend it to enjoy the view of Seongsu-dong when the weather gets a little warmer! #WinterTravel #HotPlace

It's been open for almost a year, but it's always hot, Anguk Station Hanok Cafe Onion Anguk✨ During the weekend, the outdoor tables were already full and full of people! So I visited in the evening when I was finishing up my day's work, but there were only 1 or 2 seats left, so I barely managed to sit down 😅 It was a place where you could really feel the unique atmosphere of a Hanok and you could tell that they put a lot of thought into every nook and cranny 🤍 Next time, I want to come during the day and enjoy the quiet beauty more ✨ 📍Onion Anguk - Cafe Onion, 5 Gyedong-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul #WinterTravel #AngukStationCafe #AngukCafe #SeoulHotPlaceCafe #SeoulCafe #SeoulTravel #SeoulCafeRecommendation #OnionAnguk

Walk and take pictures in the alleys of Yik Sin Cave, then walk north to this popular cafe~ There are quite a lot of people at afternoon tea time. Many people come to take pictures and check in! Bread and desserts will keep coming out of the oven, but not necessarily the style you want to eat ~ Take the bread and dessert you want to eat and line up to order drinks and pay! This time I ate bread and strawberry pastry - both of them were super delicious The coffee is nothing special - coconut coffee has coconut flavor - American coffee is bland ~ Korean bread and desserts are quite good #Korean Restaurant #Korea Free Trip #Korean Cafe #Korean Food #SeoulFood #Seoul Photo Hotspot #SeoulFreeTravel #Seoulcafe #seoulcafe #seoulkorea #seoulfood #seoulsweet #seoul #korea

I recommend Onion Cafe in Anguk Station. #Insta Hot Place #Hot Place Certification Shot #Good Value Restaurant

One of the most Korean cafes, Anguk Station 'Onion' ☕️ Onion, which is already famous as a bakery cafe, is the most special. This place, which is made up of hanoks that best capture the charm of the Hanok Village, is built with two hanoks surrounding a small square yard. ✔️ A place that best captures the characteristics of hanoks. From some of the seating to the shoe-taking area, and the harmony with the lighting at night, everything reflects the aesthetics of hanoks the best. It is also a popular tourist attraction for foreign tourists! ✔️ In the summer, the daisy flowers that bloom in the yard are impressive. 🌼 Unfortunately, in the winter, it is only a gravel field, but in the summer, daisy flowers fill the yard. It adds even more freshness in the summer! ✔️A variety of breads are baked in real time at the back of the store. If you go when the bread comes out, you're lucky :) Among them, Pandora and Salt Bread are the most famous! #Domestic travel #Youth travel #Traveling alone #I'm here now #Anguk Station #Seoul #Onion #Bakery #Cafe #Emotional cafe #Hanok cafe #Hot cafe #Life shot spot #Gyedong #Seoul travel #City travel #Healing in the city center #Gourmet tour

Onion Seongsu, a representative bakery cafe in Seongsu-dong, is a space that creates a unique vintage feel by renovating a metal factory from the 1970s.

In particular, the signature menus, Pandoro and Amber Butter, are loved by many visitors for their soft texture and sweet taste.   However, as it is a popular place, the waiting time can be long on weekends or on days with good weather, and it can be difficult to find a seat.

Overall, Onion Seongsu is a cafe recommended to those visiting Seongsu-dong for its unique atmosphere and delicious bakery.
