Gangnam solo café with fig financier and window bar: Selected Nicks

In short

Selected Nicks is an 8-floor rooftop café in Gangnam, Seoul, 323 meters from Gangnam Station exit 3. Visiting alone on a weekday afternoon, I ordered a classic tiramisu, a fig almond financier and an iced americano on the 1st floor, then ate at a window bar table in the 2nd-floor gallery café. Selected Nicks stayed calm with mostly solo and working guests, and both the dessert and the coffee were good enough to bring me back.

Desserts placed in a basket

Tiramisu, financier, and coffee — my favorite dessert combination 🫶 you put whatever desserts you want into a basket, pay at the counter, then head up to whichever floor you like 🚶🏻‍♀️

Some floors turn into individual study room rental spaces at certain times, so it's worth checking availability before you visit! 🥰

A weekday afternoon alone at the window bar table

I sat at the window bar table on the 2nd floor 😁 the space inside had a lot of people working or visiting alone, so it was a pretty calm atmosphere ✨

How the classic tiramisu and fig almond financier taste

Classic tiramisu, fig almond financier. This was seriously... so good with coffee! 🫶

The financier had a chewy inside with a crisp outside, and the tiramisu — honestly not bad at all 😍

Eating dessert alone while looking out the window was genuinely delicious, and the calm mood felt healing 😌 a space that settles your mind 🙊

Coffee and dessert enjoyed while looking out the window

The tiramisu at Selected Nicks Gangnam is good, the financier is good... and the coffee was good too, so between the atmosphere and the taste, this is a café I want to visit again 🥰
