Where is PICT Roastery Mangwon Branch, and what does it look like?
PICT Roastery Mangwon Branch is inside Mangwon Market, so it's great to stop by after browsing the market. You can see the café from the 1st floor like this, and going down the stairs takes you to the café in the basement!
There's a pretty mirror out front, so it's good for taking nice photos too. The hours and days off were posted there as well.
Menu prices and the ₩1,000 takeout discount
PICT Roastery Mangwon Branch has coffee, dessert, and tea menus, and you could smell the coffee beans. There's also a ₩1,000 discount for takeout orders!
There were napkins and water available up front, too, easy to use.
We ordered Marco Polo tea, an iced americano, and pistachio tiramisu!
Midnight blend iced americano at PICT Roastery
First, the iced americano had a rich crema on top, and I chose the Midnight blend — no acidity, just smooth and nutty, really delicious haha. Also, the cup was so cute!!
What does the Marco Polo tea taste like?
I picked Marco Polo because it's from a tea brand I really love. It's a tea with notes of black tea, tropical fruit, and flowers. All the teas here are delicious, so if you like tea, you should visit and try them!
Pistachio tiramisu: how sweet is it?
I was really looking forward to the tiramisu!! Mangwon-dong is known for good bread, and lately my boyfriend is completely obsessed with pistachio, so he's been going around to pistachio dessert spots — he said this one is the best. They really topped it with pistachio, and it wasn't an artificial pistachio flavor but tasted a lot like the real thing, so it was delicious. The sponge was also soaked through with coffee, moist and so tasty. I think this would be great for people who don't like overly sweet desserts!
Basement seating and atmosphere at PICT Roastery Mangwon Branch
Inside there were plenty of tables — 2-person tables, bar seats, and 4-person tables. It was calm with a nice atmosphere, good for chatting, and there were people with laptops or books working, too — it seemed like a nice spot for a date as well.
Especially !! Photos come out so pretty here >_< My boyfriend took some lovely shots of me haha. If you're looking for a good dessert spot in Mangwon, or a café near Mangwon Market, I recommend PICT Roastery Mangwon Branch ✨
