A calm café atmosphere near Yeoksam Station
It was close to Yeoksam Station Exit 6, so it was easy to find. It is near Gangnam Finance Center, making it a popular spot with office workers too.
The café had a polished, tidy mid-century modern feel. The black-and-white interior added to its calm atmosphere.
Coffee and dessert ordered at the kiosk
Ordering was easy at the kiosk. After much deliberation over the wide selection of coffee and desserts, I chose these.
- Helsinki latte (switched to soy milk)
- Flat white
- Matcha cookie
- Tomato juice
Helsinki latte with soy milk
This is the café's signature drink. I heard it reinterprets a latte tasted in Helsinki, Finland. I switched the regular milk for soy milk.
One sip brought together the rich coffee flavor and the nutty taste of soy milk perfectly. It was full-bodied yet smooth. Good!!
A flat white with rich coffee flavor
With less milk than a latte, a flat white lets you taste the coffee itself more intensely. It was nutty and delicious.
Tomato juice blended to order
This juice was made by blending fresh tomatoes as soon as I ordered. Its healthy, refreshing taste, without artificial sweetness, cleansed my palate.
A matcha cookie that paired beautifully with coffee
This was a handmade, freshly baked New York-style cookie. It had a dense, chewy texture, generously packed with slightly bitter matcha and sweet chocolate chips. With coffee, it was a dream pairing.
A Yeoksam Station café for a quiet afternoon
Mini Male Coffee Roaster delivered on everything: the coffee, the atmosphere, and the desserts. I hear the city view from the third floor is lovely too, so next time I will sit by the third-floor window and try the banana pudding.
If you want to spend some quiet time near Yeoksam Station with quality coffee, I recommend Mini Male Coffee Roaster Yeoksam Branch.
