Seoul has many good brunch places. Today, I introduce some branch places where you can have perfect Sundayโs brunch. Hope they will make you hungry.
1. AUZ
My most recent discovery. The hardest part is finding it. Located on the ground of a residence, several restaurants line the building. Go around to find it.
Here you are in Australia for a well-deserved break. Come and eat good dishes, regain strength for this new coming week. Savoring Salmon eggs Benedict, salads, or French toast. I was so full that I and my friend couldnโt finish our French toast for the dessert.
Quality and quantity worth it.
*Although this restaurant is meant to be Australian letโs be honest I see no difference between what I ate in this brunch compared to another foreign style brunch. However, it was delicious.
Address: Seoul, Yongsan-gu, Wonhyoro 1(il)-dong, Baekbeom-ro / Everyday 9:00-18:00
2. GRAIN
All the brunch I tested Grain is without a doubt my favorite. why?
First by its popular neighborhood location Yeonnam-dong next to Hongdae. (Youโve heard of it before, havenโt you?)
Secondly, for its minimalist setting and bright space. Plus? It has a small terrace perfect to appreciate the sun.
But letโs talk about food. Its concept will offer you a brunch tray that you can compose yourself. By choosing 4 to 6 items in a list. For 6 items of your choice, it will cost between 15,500 won or about 12 euros.
Of course ร la carte dishes available from sandwiches pancakes and burgersโฆ
Address: 385-6, Yeonnam-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul /Mon-Fri: 11:00 โ 22:00 Sat-Sun: 10:00 โ 22:00
3. SUNDAY ARVO
I explored my new neighborhood.
Near the Haebangchon area, you have to get lost in these winding streets to find this place. A nice little simple and bright restaurant itโs been a long time since I had eaten so well.
On the menu: Avocado salmon toasts eggs Benedict, pancakes for a price range between 12,000 won and 20,000won.
Address: Hoenamu-ro 13 gil, Itaewon 2-dong, Yongsan-gu, Seoul / Weekdays 9:00-19:00 Weekends 10:00-18:00
4. BรTON MEAL CAFE
I discovered this brunch thanks to my girlfriend Yana. And not to hide anything from you, I enjoyed it.
Letโs start with the placeโฆ I knew the Yongsan neighborhood from working there. So what was my surprise to learn that brunch had opened there. I always found this part of the town unpleasant for what was to eat there. Only The large shopping mall in Seoul station offers a wide choice of catering.
Bright, Bรขton is one of my favorite addresses in terms of design. But I will not stop there. The food is also very good. I opted for the Bahn mi sandwich at 13,800won (about 10eu) and a fruit toast for dessert, at 11,000won (8.20eu). A gourmet meal with fragrant flavors. Bรขton meal cafe is a boon for this area that wants to welcome more visitors.
Address: 33 Hangang-daero 15gil yongsan-gu, Seoul / Everyday 11h-18h/19h.
5. SUMMER LANE
Tiny but cozy.
Minimalist, as well as itโs setting we went to the intimate Summer Lane. Once arrived, small disappointment the place seemed much smaller than in the pictures.
If you were planning to come on Sunday be prepared to have to wait. We went during the week and nobody was there. For the food a dozen homemade dishes are available I suggest you try the Salmon eggs Benedict, waffle. Just divine.
Prices are equivalent to those of other brunches about between 12 and 13 euros per dish 4.50 euros a drink as well as desserts sold between 2.50 and 5 euros.
Address: 783-13 Hannam-dong, Yongsan-Gu, Seoul / Tues-Sun: 08:30 โ 17:00
6. URBAN PLANT
If you go through Hapjeong I recommend Urban Plant, my paradise on earth. Seoul indeed lacks a bit of nature depending on the neighborhoods where you live so I particularly like the cafes or restaurants with a green vibe.
The good surprise of the property is that the place is very large and has not only several floors but also a big terrace. So you should without too much trouble find a sit even on a Sunday morning.
The place is so nice that I can stay there for hours. Youโll find the basics. Coffee, tea, juice, about the food the portions are quite good. You can order pasta omelets or sandwiches with homemade chips.
Price range, about 15,000 won (12 eu) for a drink 6,000won (4,50eu).
Address: 363-28, Hapjeong-dong, Mapo-Gu, Seoul / Mon-Sun: 10:00 โ 23:00
7. BUTTER MILK
Butter milk is an unpretentious brunch located between Hongdae and Sinchon. I used to walk past and see people waiting on stools. I decide to finally go: A tiny place with 5-6 tables, small but cozy, we were greeted by a smile and the deafening noise of the coffee machine.
The good surprise is the prices. Count only 8,800 won (6.50eu) for a set consisting of double pancakes ricotta cheese, bacon, mashed potatoes, salad, fried egg. This is what I ordered and itโs worth it. After you also have sets with toast if you are not a pancakes lover and you also have ร la carte dishes at very low prices!
Address: 130 130 wausan-ro, Changcheondong, mapo-gu, Seoul / Mon-Sun 10-16h closed on Wednesday
