Seoul Station brunch café, autumn fig matcha baguette: Dance

Dance Dance Dance Seoul Station opens at 7am every morning and is a hot brunch spot for office workers near Seoul Station, so I tried its fig matcha baguette and an oat milk latte. Dance Dance Dance is a Grand Central brunch spot that tops freshly baked baguettes with light tofu cream cheese, so it's easy on your health too. Below I'll introduce Dance Dance Dance Seoul Station and review what I ate in detail.

Where is Dance Dance Dance Seoul Station, and when is it open?

Dance Dance Dance Seoul Station is on B3 of Grand Central at Seoul Station and is open daily 07:00–19:00 (last order 18:30). It's a 1-minute walk from Exit 4 of Seoul Station (Line 1, Line 4, Airport Railroad, Gyeongui-Jungang Line, GTX-A), and for parking you can use the Grand Central car park.

It's on B3 of the Grand Central building, 167m on foot from Seoul Station, so it was easy to reach by public transport or by car.

What's the atmosphere like at the B3 Grand Central café?

Going down to B3, where Dance Dance Dance Seoul Station sits, I was greeted by a neat storefront that suits the modern building.

There are only two shops on B3 of Grand Central, including Dance Dance Dance, so I liked how calm it was. The interior makes use of the building's soaring ceiling for an open feel, so while takeout is possible, sitting at a table and eating comfortably was nice too.

In the ordering area, the bakery items you can try at Dance Dance Dance Seoul Station were neatly displayed. The long baguettes I was about to eat were sitting there too, so my mouth was watering before my order even came out.

Dance Dance Dance Seoul Station menu

This Grand Central brunch spot has a wide range: a seasonal menu featuring in-season figs, plus sandwiches and baguettes that look great for brunch or a meal.

I'm a regular matcha fan and was curious how it would taste with sweet figs, so I ordered the seasonal fig matcha baguette along with a decaf oat milk latte. I'll go through them in order below.

What does the autumn fig matcha baguette taste like?

The Dance Dance Dance fig matcha baguette had plump figs sitting on a generous helping of matcha cream. Add the nutty, crunchy crushed pistachios and it felt very much like autumn.

True to a place famous for its bread, the baguette, chewy outside and dense inside, was perfect without any explanation. Then you get the sweet, popping fresh figs plus fig jam, which maximizes the figs' natural sweetness, so the fig flavor really came through clearly.

And the matcha cream isn't just any cream: it's Dance Dance Dance's signature tofu cream cheese mixed with 100% matcha, so the bittersweet, nutty flavor came through strongly. The mix of sweet fig and bitter matcha was subtle and lovely, so if you like matcha and figs like me, I confidently recommend this Dance Dance Dance baguette.

Does a decaf oat milk latte go well with the fig matcha baguette?

The Dance Dance Dance decaf oat milk latte is made with oat milk, so it's a good choice even if you're sensitive to dairy.

I got it decaf, so it had a mild nutty aftertaste, and as the ice melted it finished smoothly, which I liked too.

For a brunch spot, coffee matters too, and it paired wonderfully with the fig matcha baguette I tried this time, so if you eat the baguette, do have a coffee with it.

A Seoul Station brunch café worth a return visit

The baguettes at Dance Dance Dance Seoul Station are tasty, but the staff were friendly and the atmosphere was good too, so I want to go again! Besides the items I introduced today, there were many other brunch items, from a choco baguette onward, so if you're looking for a Grand Central brunch spot, give Dance Dance Dance a try.
