Three friends came by on a weeknight as a second-round spot and ordered a Negroni and a Glenfiddich, and with almost no other guests in the room they could talk and drink without watching the tables around them. Whether you come alone or with a couple of friends, Woowoo is a calm place for one good drink. ## Good to know - **Location**: 7-1 Myeonmok-ro, 2nd floor, Gwangjin-gu, Seoul (near Gwangja Station) - **What we ordered**: Negroni, Glenfiddich - **Visit**: Weeknight second round, 3 people - **Amenities**: Phone chargers, simple games on hand *as written by the visitor on Sep 15, 2026* Today I'm introducing a solo-drinking bar in Gwangja, a Seoul solo-drinking bar called Woowoo. I met up with friends on a weeknight evening and we headed here as our second stop! I figured a "solo-drinking bar" meant only solo visitors came, but there were three of us that night. Since it was a weeknight, there were almost no other customers, so we got to hang out in a quiet, relaxed atmosphere all to ourselves. ## Where is Woowoo? Finding the Gwangja bar's 2nd-floor entrance ![Exterior of the 2nd-floor building housing Woowoo, a solo-drinking bar in Gwangja](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky-01-jwcts-m-900.webp) ![Staircase and entrance leading up to Woowoo's 2nd floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky-02-12sma-900.webp) Woowoo, a solo-drinking bar in Gwangja / Seoul, is on the 2nd floor, and you climb a staircase to reach the entrance! Even the exterior gave off proper bar vibes. We were looking for somewhere to have a casual drink with friends in Gwangja and landed here, and the quiet atmosphere had me excited before we even walked in. ## What does the inside of Woowoo feel like? ![Cozy bar seating inside Woowoo](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky-03-1gcz6-900.webp) ![Quiet atmosphere inside Woowoo](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky-04-cvp4b-900.webp) ![Interior decor around Woowoo's bar counter](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky-05-1rlnb-900.webp) ![Inside Woowoo on a weeknight with few customers](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky-06-15djp-900.webp) Overall, Woowoo has a cozy bar feel. Rather than a crowded, noisy bar, it's the kind of place where you can sit quietly and drink while chatting. Since it was a weeknight, there were barely any other customers, so we got to enjoy it even more at ease. The three of us could talk and hang out without worrying about anyone around us, which was great haha. ## Woowoo's menu: cocktails to whisky ![Woowoo's cocktail and whisky menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky-07-14hh3-900.webp) ![A page from Woowoo's drink menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky-08-14q3b-900.webp) At Woowoo you can enjoy all kinds of drinks. From cocktails to whisky, there's something to pick depending on your taste, so it seems like a great spot to visit alone for a drink too. That night we kept it simple and focused mainly on drinks! ## Drinking the Negroni and the Glenfiddich > Order — Negroni, Glenfiddich ![The Negroni cocktail ordered at Woowoo](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky-09-14zr3-900.webp) ![Glasses of Negroni and Glenfiddich whisky](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky-10-1b3oq-900.webp) ![A glass of Negroni at Woowoo, a solo-drinking bar in Gwangja](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky-11-13ykc-1200.webp) The Negroni looked gorgeous and had that classic bittersweet cocktail taste, perfect for sipping slowly. Negronis have that distinctive bitter, weighty flavor of a classic cocktail, which makes them great for taking your time. It felt just right when you want a drink with a bit of atmosphere! The Glenfiddich was ordered by the whisky-loving friends and was great for a clean, easy drink. That night the point wasn't to drink a lot but to chat with friends over a glass, and the quiet atmosphere suited that perfectly. ![Drinks and small items on the table at Woowoo](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky-12-9swbp-900.webp) ![Simple games set up at Woowoo](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky-13-1iyqp-900.webp) ![Chargers and other amenities beside the seating at Woowoo](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky-14-1gnsi-900.webp) ![A calm-atmosphere seat at Woowoo's bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky/gunja-solo-bar-woowoo-negroni-whisky-15-lp8oi-900.webp) ## Phone chargers and games at the bar Chargers were available, and there were some simple games set up too. These days I find myself preferring a calm place to have a drink over a bar packed with people.
