Why do I keep going back to Bakerist Brown near Sinnonhyeon Station?
Bakerist Brown is a large bakery café between Sinnonhyeon Station and Gangnam Station, and it even has the trendy waxy corn (waxy, chewy corn flavor) salt bread. If you're searching for a Gangnam bakery café or a bakery near Gangnam Station, you've probably heard of it at least once.

I want to give you a vivid report of my visit to Bakerist Brown! ✨ I go to Bakerist Brown every time I'm in Gangnam haha (it has the most trendy desserts) and it changes every time! I think I've been about 5–6 times lol. I go alone, I go with friends haha.
Bakerist Brown's waxy corn salt bread, the star of this visit
What was new at Bakerist Brown this time was the waxy corn salt bread. I wondered what would be there this time, and there it was. Wow, wow, it's seriously amazing haha. It never disappoints.





By the way, Bakerist Brown is super pretty at Christmas. The desserts and cakes are lovely too, so they were great for buying as gifts.
What are Bakerist Brown's atmosphere and location like?
Bakerist Brown is a really big café that uses everything from the first basement floor to the 3rd floor!!!!! 🪑✨ The interior is so pretty too, with lots of photo spots.
The address is 21 Gangnam-daero 102-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul (B1 and floors 1–3), and it's a quick walk from Exit 6 of Sinnonhyeon Station haha.
🌿 The vibe passes with flying colors! The moment you walk in, the toasty smell of bread puts you in a good mood. The inside is huge and gets great light! And it has that red-brick-house feel ❤️❤️ The tables are spaced out widely, so it's perfect for chatting comfortably with a friend.





Why the bread corner at Bakerist Brown made my heart flutter
I thought only the brunch was good at Bakerist Brown, but the dessert and bread corner totally made my heart flutter ❤️


Every single bread looks like it was made with real care! It seems the waxy corn salt bread is the main item right now. I love waxy corn, so it's fun to see it show up in salt bread too haha.




How do the seats on floors 1–3 differ?
Floors 1 to 3 of Bakerist Brown each have a different feel. There are terrace-style seats, and some spots are set up like slightly separate spaces, so you can enjoy them privately. Since it's so big, there's also a lot of group seating. The ceilings are high, and it feels a bit like a villa or a Western-style house. Having such varied spaces to choose from by taste was a big plus. Even when it's crowded it doesn't feel stuffy!!

What I ate at Bakerist Brown: black sesame latte and cream pastry
This time at Bakerist Brown I picked a black sesame latte, the Gangnam Sand set collection 🖤, salt bread, and a cute cream pastry with little eyes. The menu is varied, and I went with the black sesame latte and assorted bakery items!!!
I think I had brunch items at Bakerist Brown before, and I was happy with those too haha. The brunch was kind of this style haha.
(This cream pastry was way tastier than I expected, I was shocked!!!! I'll order it again next time haha.) The balance of chewy and sweet is the absolute best!!!!!! It's packed with cream ❤️ The black sesame latte was also smooth and nutty, so good.
Are there Gangnam Sands and baked sweets for gifts too?
Bakerist Brown has a stacked dessert lineup that's great for gifts.


✨There's a really wide variety of Gangnam Sands✨

Beyond that, there's also a solid lineup of baked sweets and desserts that make great gifts.
Who would I recommend Bakerist Brown to?
If you want brunch, dessert and atmosphere all in one go in Gangnam, definitely try Bakerist Brown.💛 With so many kinds of seats, it's perfect alone, with friends, or for a date! 😘


It's also a good pick if you love salt bread, because Bakerist Brown really has every kind of salt bread you can think of ✨✨
