Great spot to stay dry and avoid the rain—unless you’re into getting soaked. In that case, there’s always the puddles outside! Bonus: they serve hot coffee, so you can warm up while watching the weather do its thing.

The girl behind the counter was super friendly. She helped me out as I don’t speak Korean. I think her name was Heaven. A very big venue with a lot of room.

Nice interior with two floors of seating. The cakes are nice and the coffee is typical Starbucks coffee. But they did a nice latte art on it.
