Pulse Line Coffee's showcase displays muffins, pound cakes, and pies.

Here's the difference between brûlée pie and crumble pie! Crumble pie has caramel cream cheese inside and a crumbly, streusel-like crust, while brûlée pie has vanilla cream cheese inside and a top that's baked with melted sugar like a crème brûlée :) ![Brûlée pie displayed in the showcase](https://img.superchart.com/images/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie-06-544dj-900.webp) ![Crumble pie with its crispy top on display](https://img.superchart.com/images/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie-07-vqj5y-900.webp) ### Muffins and pound cakes at Pulse Line Coffee The muffins come in yellow cheese, mulberry, and caramel varieties. The pound cakes come in two-berry and black sesame varieties. There was a good variety of pound cakes too. ![Muffin and pound cake display stand](https://img.superchart.com/images/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie-08-4nc6s-900.webp) ## The order: cream brûlée pie and an iced americano There's also a wide range of coffee and drink menu items.

Pulse Line Coffee's interior is spacious with lots of tables, so no need to worry about finding a seat!! Every seat had a high-back chair, which made it comfortable to spend time there. ![Spacious seating area with high-back chairs](https://img.superchart.com/images/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie-14-1urkc-900.webp) ## How does the cream brûlée pie taste? The pie and americano I ordered :) A hint of coffee aroma wafting from the crema. Even iced, the coffee smelled so good. I bet it would be even more fragrant hot!! But since it was summer and hot out, I went with iced haha. ![Iced americano with crema, served with pie](https://img.superchart.com/images/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie-15-7w3jm-900.webp) Like a crème brûlée, the top of the pie comes out beautifully browned haha. ![A slice of cream brûlée pie with browned top](https://img.superchart.com/images/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie-16-1dste-1200.webp) A pie baked with sugar melted just right on top! It looked so delicious. ![Surface of a brûlée pie with melted, baked sugar](https://img.superchart.com/images/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie-17-tdeop-900.webp) ![Plate with cream brûlée pie on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie-18-t7sd9-900.webp) Pairing it with a cup of coffee haha. Sweet dessert and americano is the best combination. ![Table set with iced americano and pie together](https://img.superchart.com/images/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie-19-1hfmc-900.webp) ![Dessert set paired with coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie-20-ugnil-900.webp) The pie sliced cleanly and creamily, revealing plenty of moist cream cheese! And underneath there was a moist cookie layer, which made it even tastier. ![Cross-section of the pie showing cream cheese](https://img.superchart.com/images/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie-21-1fsvc-900.webp) The crisp-yet-moist cookie texture, the creamy cream cheese, and the caramelized sugar top — a perfect harmony!! ![A forkful of cream brûlée pie](https://img.superchart.com/images/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie-22-1ld80-900.webp) ![Café table with pie and coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie-23-e6kaj-900.webp) ## An early-morning café for the commute to or from work I really enjoyed this pie dessert spot and want to recommend #PulseLineCoffee as a café near Seoul National University Station. The pound cakes looked delicious too, so next time I'll have to go back and try those!! Since it opens as early as 8am, it's a great place to stop by on your way to work, and just as good after work!! With its hip interior and delicious coffee and desserts, it's a place you can visit anytime without any pressure :) ## Where it is - Pulse Line Coffee (펄스라인커피) - 13 Gwanak-ro 14na-gil, 1st floor, Unit 101, Gwanak-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 관악구 관악로14나길 13 1층 101호 - 37.4774447, 126.95745 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%8E%84%EC%8A%A4%EB%9D%BC%EC%9D%B8%EC%BB%A4%ED%94%BC/@37.4774447,126.95745,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@coffee-in-sentences/pulseline-coffee-sharosu-morning-brulee-pie/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
