Visiting with a baby, the writer took the elevator up to the second floor, ordered an iced americano, the signature Neorae Latte, a baby juice and bread, then looked around the stone-floored room and the stairs up to the third floor, where drinks run 6,000-7,000 won. If you are tired of ocean views, the Ulsanbawi view at Cafe Neorae makes a refreshing change. ## Good to know - **Location**: 114 Wonamhaksapyeong-gil 2F, Sokcho-si, Gangwon (inside the sundubu village) - **Building layout**: 1F soft tofu restaurant, 2F-3F café - **Parking**: Own parking lot with an attendant on site - **Drink prices**: 6,000-7,000 won per cup - **Decaf**: No extra charge to switch beans - **With a baby**: Elevator, 2F microwave, changing table in the 3F women's restroom, baby drinks available - **Price reference**: ₩6,000 ≈ $4.3 (2026-09-21) *as written by the visitor on Sep 21, 2026* After seeing nothing but ocean views in Sokcho — from where we stayed to where we ate — I wanted to experience a different side of the city besides the sea. ![View toward Ulsanbawi during the Sokcho trip](https://img.superchart.com/images/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit-01-gqu8w-900.webp) That's how I found this Sokcho café, famous for its Ulsanbawi rock view: Cafe Neorae (카페너래). ## Where is Cafe Neorae, and is there parking? Cafe Neorae is located at 114 Wonamhaksapyeong-gil in Sokcho-si. It sits inside the tofu village. ![Exterior of the Cafe Neorae building inside the tofu village](https://img.superchart.com/images/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit-02-1spr4-1200.webp) Like other spots here, the first floor is a tofu restaurant and the second floor is the café, so it looked easy to combine both in one visit. ![Entrance of Cafe Neorae, leading from the 1st-floor tofu restaurant up to the 2nd-floor café](https://img.superchart.com/images/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit-03-1m0yf-900.webp) Parking is available right in the café's own lot. There's an attendant managing it too, so parking didn't seem like it would be difficult even during peak hours. Even from the parking lot, you can see Ulsanbawi in the distance — it looked really grand and impressive. It was partly hidden by clouds, but even so, I could imagine how magnificent it must look on a clear day. ![View of Ulsanbawi partly hidden by clouds, seen from the parking lot](https://img.superchart.com/images/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit-04-1j1cv-900.webp) There's also an elevator inside the building, which made it easy to get around with a stroller or wheelchair. Details like this matter a lot when you're traveling with a baby, and I was very satisfied. ## Cafe Neorae's 2nd floor: wide table spacing and a microwave > Cafe Neorae, 2nd floor ![Bright, calm interior of Cafe Neorae's 2nd floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit-05-1oq27-900.webp) My first impression of Cafe Neorae was bright and airy, yet calm. ![Order counter and seating on Cafe Neorae's 2nd floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit-06-31lyd-900.webp) You order at the counter on the 2nd floor, and the tables there felt more spread out compared to the 3rd floor. ![Spaciously arranged tables on Cafe Neorae's 2nd floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit-07-1wjjz-900.webp) Sunlight poured in through the big windows and it put me in a good mood. ![Sunlight streaming through the wide windows on Cafe Neorae's 2nd floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit-08-1q88x-900.webp) The space wasn't monotonous — on one side there was a full-length mirror, great for photos, ![Full-length mirror on Cafe Neorae's 2nd floor, good for photos](https://img.superchart.com/images/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit-09-17md2-900.webp) and there was also an area covered with shallow stones. ![Area covered with shallow stones on Cafe Neorae's 2nd floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit-10-1837r-900.webp) It was great for exploring here and there with the baby. Nobody taught her to do it, but she had so much fun walking between the stones. ![Baby walking among the stones inside the café](https://img.superchart.com/images/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit-11-jfltv-900.webp) On the 2nd floor there's a microwave you can use, along with a spot to grab forks and knives. ![Self-service microwave and cutlery station on Cafe Neorae's 2nd floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit-12-1vzpu-900.webp) I liked that there were instructions on how long to warm each type of bread. It's also handy for baby food if you're traveling with a little one! ## Cafe Neorae's 3rd floor: the stairway photo spot and changing table > Cafe Neorae, 3rd floor ![Distinctively decorated staircase leading to Cafe Neorae's 3rd floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit-13-zofvx-900.webp) The staircase up to the 3rd floor was distinctively decorated too. I held my baby's hand and we went up and down step by step. ![Going up and down the stairs at Cafe Neorae with the baby](https://img.superchart.com/images/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit-14-1n0j5-900.webp) ![Interior decor around the Cafe Neorae staircase](https://img.superchart.com/images/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit-15-j0nx4-900.webp) Exploring a new space is such a great experience for a baby, too. ![Cafe Neorae's 3rd-floor seating with plenty of tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit-16-1spd8-900.webp) The 3rd floor had slightly tighter table spacing, but there were plenty of tables to make up for it — since it's a large café, I didn't think finding a seat would be a problem even during busy hours. For reference, the women's restroom on the 3rd floor has a separate baby diaper-changing table, which made this a great café to visit with a baby in many ways. ## Cafe Neorae menu and prices: 6,000-7,000 won and the signature Neorae Latte ![Cafe Neorae's drink menu and price board](https://img.superchart.com/images/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit-17-aiteh-900.webp) The most important part — the price! Cafe Neorae's menu runs ₩6,000-7,000 per cup. It's a bit pricier than a regular franchise café, but not outrageously expensive either. After debating what to get, I ordered an iced americano and my husband ordered Cafe Neorae's signature drink, the Neorae Latte. ![Menu showing decaf options and baby drinks](https://img.superchart.com/images/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit-18-9hu0o-900.webp) I liked that there's no extra charge for switching to decaf beans, and that baby drinks are available too. We got a baby juice as well. ^^ ![Variety of breads on display at bakery café Cafe Neorae](https://img.superchart.com/images/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit-19-1mvu1-m-900.webp) Cafe Neorae is a bakery café, so there's a fairly wide variety of bread too. It would be a shame to skip the bread, so we ordered one to try. ![Ordered bread and drinks on the table at Cafe Neorae](https://img.superchart.com/images/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit-20-rqmtc-900.webp) The drinks came out before too long, and with the sunlight streaming in and the peaceful café atmosphere, it felt really healing. ![Iced americano and Neorae Latte by the sunny window](https://img.superchart.com/images/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit-21-wzbbd-900.webp) The signature drink was really nutty and delicious, and not too sweet — totally my taste. Why did I order an americano... I ended up stealing a lot of my husband's drink. ![A cup of the nutty signature Neorae Latte](https://img.superchart.com/images/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit-22-19apl-900.webp) This was one of the last places we stopped on our Sokcho trip, and it was a satisfying visit. If you're trying to decide which Sokcho café to visit, I'd recommend an Ulsanbawi-view café instead of an ocean-view one for something different. ^-^ ## Where it is - Cafe Neorae (카페너래) - 114 Wonamhaksapyeong-gil, Sokcho-si, Gangwon-do, South Korea, 2F - 강원특별자치도 속초시 원암학사평길 114 2F - 38.2062842, 128.5204745 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%B9%B4%ED%8E%98%EB%84%88%EB%9E%98/@38.2062842,128.5204745,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@dishes-arrive/cafe-naerae-sokcho-baby-elevator-visit/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
