Spacious second- and third-floor seating, parking, high chairs, and a changing table made repeat family visits easy. Verdict: a great choice for coffee, bread, and a relaxed mountain-view break. ## Good to know - **Location**: 1055-14 Nohak-dong, Sokcho-si, Gangwon-do - **Hours**: 09:00–18:00 - **Closed**: Second and fourth Wednesday of every month - **Space**: Café on the second and third floors - **Parking**: Relatively spacious parking area - **Amenities**: High chairs and a changing table *as written by the visitor on Sep 9, 2026* When I’m looking for a café to visit with family in Sokcho, there’s one place I’ve gone back to several times: Cafe Neorae (카페너래). There are so many pretty cafés in Sokcho, but when you’re going with family, you naturally end up looking for somewhere spacious and comfortable. ![Cafe Neorae space introduced as a family-friendly visit](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-01-1t3ny-1200.webp) Cafe Neorae is spacious overall, with plenty of seating, so it was great for visiting with a child. Best of all, the Ulsanbawi view from the windows is seriously amazing. On a clear day, the mountains and sky fill your view, and it’s so nice to sip coffee while taking in the scenery. ![Ulsanbawi Rock and sky viewed from the café window](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-02-1k74n-900.webp) There’s a good variety of bread and the coffee is tasty too, so it’s a great place to bring visiting family or friends to Sokcho. ## Cafe Neorae Information - Location: 1055-14 Nohak-dong, Sokcho-si, Gangwon-do - Hours: 09:00–18:00 - Closed: Second and fourth Wednesday of every month Cafe Neorae is one of the larger cafés in Sokcho. ![Cafe Neorae, a large café in Sokcho](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-03-c91nz-900.webp) There’s a restaurant on the first floor, while the café operates across the second and third floors. The parking area is relatively roomy too, making it convenient to drive here. When you’re traveling around Sokcho as a family, parking and seating matter more than you might think, right? In that respect, this was an easy café to visit. ## A Spacious Interior and Ulsanbawi Views ![Interior of Cafe Neorae](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-04-vhcls-900.webp) When you head up to the second floor, you’ll first find the area for choosing bread and drinks. The first thing I thought as I walked in was, “It’s much bigger than I expected!” ![Spacious second-floor area at Cafe Neorae](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-05-14pg7-900.webp) ![Wide interior of Cafe Neorae](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-06-hj2sc-900.webp) Both the second and third floors have plenty of seats, so it worked well for groups, and the tables were nicely spaced rather than feeling cramped. ![Café interior with generously spaced seating](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-07-1wu6u-900.webp) There are lots of floor-to-ceiling windows, so you can enjoy the outdoor scenery depending on where you sit. If you’re looking for a café with an Ulsanbawi view, this one is definitely worth a visit. The mountains and Sokcho scenery outside the windows were really beautiful. ![Mountains and Sokcho scenery beyond floor-to-ceiling windows](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-08-l3r3n-900.webp) They’ve also landscaped the café beautifully with plants and stones throughout. It isn’t just a huge café lined with tables; there are green little spaces here and there, which are great for photos and make the atmosphere feel even more relaxing. ![Café landscaping with plants and stones](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-09-vvr8w-900.webp) With the brick interior added in, the overall feeling is warm yet clean! ![Café space with brick interior details](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-10-584c2-900.webp) There’s also a space where sunlight streams in through the ceiling, so I imagine the atmosphere would be especially lovely on a nice day. ## Drinks and Bakery Items ![Second-floor drink and bakery ordering area](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-11-1to9p-900.webp) You can choose both drinks and bakery items on the second floor. ![Bakery display with a variety of breads](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-12-43ibs-900.webp) There were more kinds of bread than I expected, so I spent a while deciding what to get. The kind of display where you come only for coffee, then end up adding a piece of bread too, haha. ![Bread to choose with coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-13-14erb-900.webp) ![Café with bakery menu items](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-14-9jben-900.webp) They have signature drinks and a wide range of coffee, so it was easy to choose something that suited my taste. ![Signature drinks and coffee menu area](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-15-1w5vr-900.webp) Because the café itself is so large, it’s nice for catching up with friends or sitting with family and taking your time. So when someone asks me for a Sokcho café recommendation, I’d recommend Cafe Neorae to anyone who likes a spacious setting. ## The Coffee and Bread I Had That day, I ordered coffee and bread. The coffee I had was delicious—not too bitter and not bland either. ![Ordered coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-16-12b2w-900.webp) To be honest, some large cafés with great views have a lovely atmosphere but disappointing coffee. Here, even the coffee was good, so I was satisfied. And the bread I ordered with it! ![Bread ordered with coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-17-u7how-900.webp) It was nicely golden on the outside and delicious in its own right, making it perfect with coffee. ![Golden-baked bread](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-18-1ekl3-900.webp) ## Why It’s Great With Kids One thing I especially loved after visiting Cafe Neorae several times: they have high chairs. ![High chair provided at the café](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-19-mvqug-900.webp) When visiting a café as a family, checking whether there are high chairs is one of the first things you do. They have them here, which made it nice to visit with a child. ![Changing table inside the café](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-20-x2wlt-900.webp) But what really impressed me was that they have a changing table. I’ve been to several cafés in Sokcho, but there really aren’t as many as you’d think with a changing table inside the café. When you’re out with a baby, even finding somewhere to change a diaper at a café can be quietly stressful, so this amenity was genuinely convenient. It felt like more than just a pretty café—it’s a large Sokcho café that families can visit comfortably. ## My Overall Take After Several Visits ![Spacious and comfortable Cafe Neorae space](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-21-1eo5n-900.webp) ![Relaxed interior at Cafe Neorae](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-22-1myw1-900.webp) I’ve visited Cafe Neorae several times, and every time I’m reminded how spacious and comfortable it is. Add in the wonderful view of Ulsanbawi, and sipping coffee really made me feel like I was on a trip. The brick-and-plant-filled space is pretty, and the overall atmosphere is lovely, so I think it would suit anyone looking for a Sokcho café with a warm, local feel. It’s good for a date, good with friends, and good with family like I did. ![Café space suited to dates and family visits](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-23-8mard-900.webp) ![A café worth stopping by during a Sokcho trip](https://img.superchart.com/images/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae-24-1kaf8-900.webp) If you’re traveling in Sokcho and looking for a spacious café or one with a view of Ulsanbawi, I highly recommend Cafe Neorae!! ## Where it is - Cafe Neorae (카페너래) (카페너래) - 2F, 114 Wonamhaksapyeong-gil, Sokcho-si, Gangwon-do, South Korea - 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/@gangwon-drip-stops/sokcho-ulsanbawi-family-cafe-neorae/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
