Hagik-dong, Incheon café with ex-coworker: ₩2,000 drip bags, Tiny Dot

I visited Hagik-dong in Juan for the first time in ages, to meet a former coworker~ and I'd love to introduce the café we stopped by there, Tiny Dot.

Where is Tiny Dot in Hagik-dong, and what are the hours and parking?

Tiny Dot (타이니닷) is a big café in a four-floor building at 1 Juseung-ro 96beon-gil, Michuhol-gu, Incheon. It's open 10 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. on weekdays and 11 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. on weekends. There are two parking spaces in front.

This is what the entrance looks like~ It's a big four-floor café in Juan. The owner runs an Instagram account really diligently, so I follow it and lurk.

The two parking spaces are right in front of the café. I parked here. Since I went just before closing, parking was easy.

Tiny Dot's 1st floor: an antique-modern ordering area and 4 kinds of beans

The 1st floor is where you order~ Beans are on display, and you can buy drip coffee too.

Four kinds of beans at Tiny Dot! The owner is seriously into beans. There are four in total, including a Mild Blend, a Dark Blend and a charcoal-roasted Charcoal Blend. If you come to Tiny Dot, do try the drip coffee. Four kinds of beans, just for that.

What are Tiny Dot's menu and prices?

At Tiny Dot, an Americano is ₩5,000, a café latte ₩6,000 and a vanilla latte ₩6,500, and the signatures Deulkkae Dot, Chamkkae Dot and Orange Dot are ₩6,000 each. The menu is varied~ I recommend the cold brew options.

• Americano ₩5,000
• Café latte ₩6,000
• Vanilla latte ₩6,500
• Deulkkae Dot (nutty perilla cream coffee) ₩6,000 – signature
• Chamkkae Dot (nutty sesame cream coffee) ₩6,000 – signature
• Orange Dot (sweet and tangy orange coffee) ₩6,000 – signature

They also sell ready-brewed drip coffee, and I heard it's really popular.

Fresh fruit for fresh juice is on display too! Since I went right before closing, they had scones and Basque cheesecake left.

Tiny Dot drip bag prices

Tiny Dot drip bags are ₩2,000 for one and ₩5,000 for three! They sell drip bags too, and the price is really kind.

Next time I want to try the Deulkkae Dot and Chamkkae Dot. They're said to be nutty, sweet and smooth, which sounds exactly like my style!

Tiny Dot's 2nd to 4th floors: where should you sit?

The 2nd and 3rd floors are open for anyone to use, and the 4th floor is only for people who have reserved. There's an elevator, so getting upstairs is easy.

Coffee machines (?) are placed here and there, spaces that show the owner's sincerity toward bean coffee,, this is Tiny Dot, a huge café across floors 2 to 4.

After ordering, I went up to the 2nd floor! There's an elevator, so whoosh~ I rode up comfortably.

Tiny Dot's plant-filled 2nd floor

This is what the 2nd floor looks like. There were coffee machine decorations here and there, and the owner must be a plant parent because there were so many plants. And you know how much I love plants, right? I think I spent a good 30 minutes just looking at them.

Tiny Dot's 3rd floor, good for studying with a laptop

The 3rd floor feels like this~ It's so cozy and quiet that I think lots of people bring laptops to study. It was so cozy and tidy that I couldn't decide where to sit, and ended up just sitting on the 2nd floor!

What we ordered at Tiny Dot: hand-ground matcha latte and Basque cheesecake

Two of us visited, and we ordered a drip coffee iced Americano, a matcha latte, a Basque cheesecake and an Earl Grey scone~ Tiny Dot's matcha latte uses matcha powder the owner grinds by hand with a millstone! Isn't that amazing?

Anyone here a Basque cheesecake fan? Then come to Tiny Dot and order it. It's dense and soft but sweet. It's surprisingly big too, so it was easy for two of us to share. It's the kind of taste that blows all your stress away.

The Earl Grey scone was sweet and nutty, through and through! I think all scones are probably delicious. Scones are one of my favorite desserts, and I really enjoyed it.

Who is Tiny Dot in Hagik-dong good for?

If you're looking for a café in Hagik-dong, Juan, I recommend Tiny Dot. It's a great space for studying alone or chatting with friends. The owner is also very kind, so it's a café I'd like to visit often.
