Gwanak burger restaurant with bacon and beef patty add-ons: Daily Fix

Daily Fix, a solo-dining-friendly burger restaurant near Seoul National University Entrance

Where is Daily Fix Seoul National University Entrance, and what are the hours?

Daily Fix Seoul National University Entrance is a 5-minute walk from Exit 2 of Seoul National University Entrance Station, and it's open daily from 10:30 to 24:00. This is the kind of place you keep going back to — a solo-dining burger restaurant near Seoul National University Entrance where I keep craving that smoky-charred Korean beef patty.

Inside Daily Fix: half-open terrace and a bar table for solo diners

I had some business near Sharosu-gil in Seoul National University Entrance and stopped by Daily Fix because I've been really into burgers lately. I'm a regular burger person who eats them periodically, and I've been to a lot of famous burger spots in Seoul, but this is the first burger place I've kept going back to — three times in a row! 😊 It's a burger brand made by a Michelin-trained chef, so it tastes upscale, and with several locations around Seoul, the vibe is pretty good too.

In this cool weather, a restaurant with a half-open terrace like this is precious. A burger and a beer with a breeze after work — ahh, perfect.

Inside, there are 2-, 4-, and 6-top tables for comfortable meals or gatherings, plus a bar table that's great for solo dining near Seoul National University Entrance. The restroom is outside the shop in the building, gender-separated, with two stalls in the women's restroom haha.

Daily Fix Seoul National University Entrance menu and prices

Daily Fix Sharosu-gil has 11 burgers on the menu, with the bacon cheeseburger as the signature item, while the pastrami and Philly cheesesteak sandwiches lean more toward American-style sandwiches than burgers. Having tried both, I can say they're both delicious. If you like American-style sandwiches and American-style burgers, you have to try Daily Fix 🙏🏻

The chicken strips and chicken wings at another table looked amazing. The smell was incredible — I have to try those next time!

Good beer pairings for burgers include Budweiser bottle at ₩5,900 and the non-alcoholic beer Jeju Nouveau at ₩5,900. Nice that non-drinkers can still enjoy a beer at this solo-dining burger spot near Seoul National University Entrance. There's also Zero Coke and Sprite Zero, and soda gets free refills! Options can be added to any menu item.

Double cheeseburger, 15,900 won — 300g of Korean beef patty

The majesty of two thick, 100% Korean beef patties topped with American cheese and Swiss cheese. With 300g of domestic Korean beef patty inside, the macros are absolutely perfect!

With two extra strips of house-made bacon added, the portion was huge, and it was so good my brain felt like it was popping with dopamine.

A crisp-outside, juicy-inside, smoky-charred Korean beef patty, thick house-made bacon, well-caramelized onions, and two kinds of melting cheese — this solo-dining burger spot near Seoul National University Entrance makes you want a beer immediately.

Philly cheesesteak sandwich, 13,900 won — with a 170g Korean beef patty added

A thick, authentic East Coast-style Philly cheesesteak sandwich at ₩13,900. The Philly cheesesteak sandwich wasn't on the menu at the Daily Fix location I visited last time, but it was here at the Seoul National University Entrance branch, so I ordered it right away! You can add various options to the Philly cheesesteak sandwich too, so I added a 100% Korean beef patty haha.

The bun for the Philly cheesesteak sandwich has a ciabatta-like feel, different from the other burgers, giving it a distinctly chewier sandwich texture.

Proud shot of the cross-section — the Philly cheesesteak sandwich with 170g of 100% Korean beef patty added for ₩5,900.

The Philly cheesesteak sandwich has a slightly spiced meat flavor that suited my taste perfectly, and it's definitely a different vibe from the double cheeseburger I had earlier. If you want to experience both an American-style burger and an American-style sandwich, I recommend ordering a variety like I did ☺️

Coleslaw, the side that comes with it

You can't skip the coleslaw. An absolute must-have side for a burger! I'm determined to try every menu item I haven't had yet.

A solo-dining burger spot near Seoul National University Entrance that I keep craving even after three visits.
