It was the clean, tidy kind of interior I love ✨ ![Café interior with wood-toned tables and chairs](https://img.superchart.com/images/mangwon-roastery-matcha-cheesecake/mangwon-roastery-matcha-cheesecake-07-16dbk-900.webp) PICT Roastery Mangwon Branch is a specialty roastery café that roasts its own coffee. I have been drinking coffee often lately, so I have become interested in it—and hearing that it was a roastery made me curious about the coffee ☕️ ![Specialty roastery café space](https://img.superchart.com/images/mangwon-roastery-matcha-cheesecake/mangwon-roastery-matcha-cheesecake-08-1yh2k-900.webp) ## A menu with coffee, tea, and desserts ![Café menu information](https://img.superchart.com/images/mangwon-roastery-matcha-cheesecake/mangwon-roastery-matcha-cheesecake-09-6ls0k-900.webp) Beyond coffee, there are plenty of drinks such as tea and ade, so I think it would be a good place even for people who are not big coffee drinkers. ![Varied drink menu including coffee and tea](https://img.superchart.com/images/mangwon-roastery-matcha-cheesecake/mangwon-roastery-matcha-cheesecake-10-1d2lh-900.webp) I prefer coffee with less acidity, so I ordered the Midnight Blending! I asked when ordering, and this was what they recommended. My friend ordered Wedding Imperial, and we picked the Kyoto matcha Basque cheesecake for dessert 🤤 ![Ordered coffee, tea, and matcha cheesecake](https://img.superchart.com/images/mangwon-roastery-matcha-cheesecake/mangwon-roastery-matcha-cheesecake-11-1rcwq-1200.webp) We sat at the sunny window bar, and the light came in so beautifully ✨ ![Sunny window-side bar seating](https://img.superchart.com/images/mangwon-roastery-matcha-cheesecake/mangwon-roastery-matcha-cheesecake-12-18p0r-900.webp) ## Midnight Blending and Wedding Imperial The coffee used nutty beans. It was delicious—clean and nicely full-bodied. The round mug holding the drink was cute, too 😏 ![Midnight Blending in a round mug](https://img.superchart.com/images/mangwon-roastery-matcha-cheesecake/mangwon-roastery-matcha-cheesecake-13-1lxc1-900.webp) The Wedding Imperial my friend ordered turned out to be Mariage Frères tea, from the premium tea brand 🫢 It felt like they had put care into the tea selection as well as the coffee menu, so I think tea lovers would enjoy it too :) Perhaps because it was a premium tea bag, the tea was rich yet smooth, and my tea-loving friend liked it haha. ![Mariage Frères Wedding Imperial tea](https://img.superchart.com/images/mangwon-roastery-matcha-cheesecake/mangwon-roastery-matcha-cheesecake-14-446dv-900.webp) ## A smooth Basque cheesecake with deep matcha flavor This is the Kyoto matcha Basque cheesecake. The matcha color was incredibly deep. Such a luminous-looking dessert.. ✨ The color was deep, and sure enough... the matcha flavor was incredibly intense too. 👍🏻 I prefer smooth cheesecake to super-dense cheesecake, and PICT Roastery Mangwon Branch's cheesecake was wonderfully smooth as well. 🤤 I enjoyed it so much that I definitely need to come back next time to try the French toast. ![Kyoto matcha Basque cheesecake](https://img.superchart.com/images/mangwon-roastery-matcha-cheesecake/mangwon-roastery-matcha-cheesecake-15-1jh7t-900.webp) There was a cute phrase printed on the tissue, too. ✨ ![Tissue with a cute printed phrase](https://img.superchart.com/images/mangwon-roastery-matcha-cheesecake/mangwon-roastery-matcha-cheesecake-16-kb8fl-876.webp) The sunlight was lovely and the café interior was pretty, so my friend and I kept taking photos while we hung out. It had been a while since I had coffee, chatted, and taken photos in such a pretty space, so it was a happy Saturday afternoon 😌 ## A café for a break after exploring Mangwon Market Overall, I loved that PICT Roastery Mangwon Branch offered such a variety, from coffee to desserts and tea ☕️ They have their own roasted coffee as well as Mariage Frères tea. The desserts were truly delicious too! 🍰 It is great for taking a little break while exploring Mangwon Market, and if you want coffee and dessert together at a café with a nice atmosphere, I recommend PICT Roastery Mangwon Branch as a Mangwon-dong dessert café 😉 ## Where it is - PICT Roastery Mangwon Branch (픽트로스터리 망원점) - 1F, 45 World Cup-ro 23-gil, Mapo-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 마포구 월드컵로23길 45 1층 - 37.5558894, 126.9072652 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%94%BD%ED%8A%B8%EB%A1%9C%EC%8A%A4%ED%84%B0%EB%A6%AC%20%EB%A7%9D%EC%9B%90%EC%A0%90/@37.5558894,126.9072652,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@cup-dinner-routes/mangwon-roastery-matcha-cheesecake/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
