I tried its signature chocolate cake with decaf Americano and vanilla latte in the deep, wood-toned space, which also has fruit sando choices and refill benefits. A good spot to linger over dessert and coffee. ## Good to know - **Address**: 12 Aju-ro 47beon-gil, Paldal-gu, Suwon, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea (경기 수원시 팔달구 아주로47번길 12 1층) - **Hours**: Daily 11:00–22:00; last order 21:30 - **Information**: Takeout, group visits, and Wi-Fi available - **Refills and discount**: One Americano refill with one drink ordered per person; ₩1,000 takeout discount - **Americano**: ₩5,500 - **Vanilla latte**: ₩6,800 - **Tak Latte (peanut cream signature)**: ₩7,000 - **Tokyo Latte**: ₩7,000 - **Signature chocolate cake**: ₩8,000 - **Chestnut cheesecake**: ₩8,000 - **Fig cake**: ₩8,500 - **Fruit sando**: ₩8,500 - **Peach sando**: ₩8,200 - **Chocolate banana sando**: ₩7,500 - **Salt bread**: ₩3,300 *as written by the visitor on Sep 12, 2026* ## An Ajou University café deeper and wider than it looks I had visited before, and I love that there is such a deep, spacious area hidden beyond what you see from the entrance. ![Exterior of Jo Hui-tak Coffee near Ajou University](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake-01-1whnd-900.webp) ![View of Jo Hui-tak Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake-02-150b4-900.webp) ### Jo Hui-tak Coffee information The address is 12 Aju-ro 47beon-gil, Paldal-gu, Suwon, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea, and it is open daily from 11:00 to 22:00, with last orders at 21:30.

The lighting and outlet placement are well set up so university students can comfortably work on laptops or do assignments. ![Café interior with seats equipped with outlets](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake-10-1ex8d-900.webp) I do not think they had sando when I went last time... but it looks like they do now?? ![Fresh-fruit sando at Jo Hui-tak Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake-11-qeb2v-900.webp) ![Chocolate cake and refill benefits at Jo Hui-tak Coffee near Ajou University in Suwon](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake-12-qfmof-900.webp) More dessert choices at Jo Hui-tak Coffee! The display case is filled with colorful fresh-fruit sando (fruit-and-cream sandwiches) that suit the season, along with thick slices of cake, making it a visual treat. ![Display case of fresh-fruit sando and cakes](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake-13-1jit3-900.webp) ![Cake desserts at Jo Hui-tak Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake-14-ct9tf-900.webp) ## The signature chocolate cake and coffee pairing I ordered the signature chocolate cake, a decaf Americano, and a vanilla latte. ![Chocolate cake and coffee order](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake-15-8z6kq-900.webp) The signature chocolate cake I tried that day had layers of sweet sandwich cream and rich dark chocolate, and was served with cute sprinkles on top. ![Signature chocolate cake topped with sprinkles](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake-16-14qc9-900.webp) When you cut off a bite with a fork, the moist chocolate sponge and luxuriously smooth filling melt gently in your mouth. ![Cross-section of chocolate cake cut with a fork](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake-17-18lg3-1200.webp) The refreshing iced Americano and sweet vanilla latte we ordered alongside it had excellent bean balance, neatly cutting through the richness of the sweet chocolate cake. ![Iced Americano and vanilla latte](https://img.superchart.com/images/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake-18-20s1n-900.webp) ### Coffee that goes with chocolate cake When having the sweet, deeply flavored signature chocolate cake, I recommend pairing it with an iced Americano with a distinct bitter edge. The cake's sweetness and the nutty flavor of the beans strike a refreshing balance, so it stays delicious right to the end. You can also make use of the Americano refill offered when each person orders a drink for a more leisurely dessert time. ### Things to know before visiting Because it is popular, the inner seats can fill up quickly with people studying at cafés and other visitors during peak hours. It is a little unfortunate that there is no dedicated parking, as it is located in a university-area alley commercial district. > The spacious, comfortable surprise space hidden beyond the entrance, along with the high-quality cake and sando lineup, was impressive. The desserts are excellent and the refill benefit makes this perfect for spending time near Ajou University. ⭐⭐⭐⭐(4.5/5) ## Where it is - Jo Hui-tak Coffee (조희탁커피) (조희탁커피) - 12 Aju-ro 47beon-gil, Paldal-gu, Suwon, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea (경기 수원시 팔달구 아주로47번길 12 1층) - 경기도 수원시 팔달구 아주로47번길 12 1층 - 37.2791821, 127.0430016 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%A1%B0%ED%9D%AC%ED%83%81%EC%BB%A4%ED%94%BC/@37.2791821,127.0430016,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@gyeonggi-doorway-meals/suwon-ajou-cafe-chocolate-cake/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
