The café doubles as a 29cm home gallery, so the furniture on display can be browsed like a pop-up, and the visit included an iced latte and an einspänner, drip coffee topped with cream. Dogs are allowed indoors as well, so Oldsse Seochon is an easy pick for anyone looking for a dog-friendly café in Jongno. ## Good to know - **Hours**: Daily 10:00–20:30 (last order 20:00) - **Closed**: Every Monday - **Address**: 35-3 Pilundae-ro, Jongno-gu, Seoul - **Ordered**: Iced latte, einspänner - **Dogs**: Allowed indoors *as written by the visitor on Aug 20, 2026* Oldsse Seochon is a dog-friendly hanok café at 35-3 Pilundae-ro, tucked in a Seochon alley in Jongno.

The quiet, unhurried feel from the entrance really suits Seochon 😊 There's no big sign, so I'll admit — I walked right past it once! ![Exterior of Oldsse Seochon seen through floor-to-ceiling glass](https://img.superchart.com/images/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe-03-1i77o-900.webp) ![Café space displaying 29cm home gallery furniture](https://img.superchart.com/images/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe-04-1pt6e-900.webp) Since it's a 29cm home gallery, it felt like browsing a furniture pop-up! The floor-to-ceiling glass made everything feel open and airy, and being set in a Seochon alley gave it that distinct neighborhood atmosphere. ![Outdoor waiting seats outside the café](https://img.superchart.com/images/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe-05-1vqje-900.webp) There's a spot to sit outside if there's a wait, which looked comfortable for waiting around. No real terrace, but it had that terrace-like feel! ![Hanok interior with full glass windows looking onto the Seochon alley](https://img.superchart.com/images/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe-06-k85d0-900.webp) The café has full glass windows so you get a great view of the Seochon alley — very atmospheric. The combination of the alley view and the hanok makes you want to keep coming back 😊 Looked like they open the windows wide once the weather cools down. ![Café decor pieces that match the hanok's wood](https://img.superchart.com/images/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe-07-v8g2-900.webp) Little decorative touches throughout paired nicely with the hanok's wood, making it fun just to look around! ![Interior decor items inside Oldsse Seochon](https://img.superchart.com/images/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe-08-vk0ck-900.webp) ![Oldsse Seochon chairs featuring traditional patterns](https://img.superchart.com/images/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe-09-e3wiq-900.webp) One of Oldsse's charms is how the chairs bring in a traditional feel — reviving traditional patterns as chair design is a clever idea, don't you think! It's a space where even foreign visitors can feel Korean aesthetics, so it has value beyond just being a café. ![Oldsse goods and trinkets displayed in a corner](https://img.superchart.com/images/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe-10-1wbpc-900.webp) There's also a little goods corner off to one side! The small trinkets are so cute. They even hand out Oldsse stickers for free. ![Open bar with a view of the kitchen and a traditional mural painting](https://img.superchart.com/images/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe-11-m0ya9-900.webp) ### Can you sit indoors with your dog at Oldsse Seochon? It was great that Oldsse Seochon is dog-friendly and lets dogs stay inside with you. I've heard a lot of places claim to be dog-friendly but don't actually let dogs indoors. The open kitchen layout let me catch the smell of coffee being brewed, and the traditional mural-style artwork looked great too. ## What's on the menu at Oldsse Seochon ![Oldsse Seochon's hand-drip and espresso menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe-12-1ymly-900.webp) *Source: Naver* Oldsse Seochon has a nice range of coffee options, from hand-drip to espresso-based drinks, and the hand-drip lineup is varied enough to be perfect for coffee lovers! There's also a wide selection of desserts beyond coffee, so it seemed like a good place to spend some time. ## Iced latte and einspänner at Oldsse Seochon ![The iced latte that arrived first](https://img.superchart.com/images/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe-13-18g7f-900.webp) I ordered an iced latte and an einspänner, and the iced latte came out first. The einspänner — cream on top of drip coffee — took a bit longer, it seemed. ![A nutty-looking iced latte set on a coaster](https://img.superchart.com/images/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe-14-10dzl-900.webp) Doesn't just looking at it make you think of a nutty latte 😋 The cup had a nice atmosphere and was cute too, matching the coaster well! ![Muddler engraved with the Oldsse logo alongside a tea coaster](https://img.superchart.com/images/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe-15-hx4bn-900.webp) The tea coaster is cute, the cup is cute — and best of all, the muddler with 'Oldsse' printed on it is the real highlight! I really love these small cute details. ![Einspänner with cream layered over drip coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe-16-1i808-900.webp) The einspänner has nutty, sweet cream on top of drip coffee — if you drink the cream first without mixing, it's genuinely delicious! The drip coffee had good aroma too, which paired well with the cream. Next time I want to try a different hand-drip option. ![Latte and einspänner placed on a hanok table](https://img.superchart.com/images/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe-17-5sy9k-900.webp) The latte-and-einspänner combo was great, spending quiet time in an atmospheric hanok café was great, and being able to bring my dog indoors was great — everything about this café was good. ## Is Oldsse Seochon worth a visit in Jongno? - 🔸Dogs allowed indoors - 🔸Hosts a 29cm gallery pop-up - 🔸A place where hanok's quiet charm and cute details coexist Recommended for anyone in Jongno looking for a dog-friendly café! ## Where it is - Oldsse Seochon (올딧세 서촌) - 35-3 Pilundae-ro, Jongno-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 종로구 필운대로 35-3 - 37.5791964, 126.9686227 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%98%AC%EB%94%A7%EC%84%B8%20%EC%84%9C%EC%B4%8C/@37.5791964,126.9686227,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@doorway-dining-seoul/olditsse-seochon-pet-friendly-hanok-cafe/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
