## In short

Kick Ass Jazz Club is a wood-toned jazz bar and cocktail bar a 4-minute walk from Exit 3 of Gunja Station on Line 5, in Gwangjin-gu, Seoul. The order here was a non-alcoholic cocktail, the signature Kick Ass Highball and a pastry pepperoni pizza that was good enough to finish even as a second-round stop. Kick Ass Jazz Club is an easy place to enjoy the atmosphere together even if you don't drink.

Gunja is really hot right now! If you want a bit more atmosphere than your average bar in the area, I want to introduce Kick Ass Jazz Club.

## Where is Kick Ass Jazz Club? 4 minutes from Gunja Station Exit 3

## Wood-toned interior and lighting: what the vibe is like

The first thing you notice walking in is the warm, vintage mood created by the deep wood tones. It kind of felt like stepping into a bar in some rural American town.. 👀

With brown wood used throughout, from the walls to the bar tables, you really get that classic, weighty jazz-bar mood.

That said, it's not too dark or heavy — the pendant lights dotted around and the soft indirect lighting make it feel cozy and comfortable.

## Live jazz up close on Kick Ass Jazz Club's small stage

The biggest draw of Kick Ass Jazz Club is definitely the live performances. On one side there's a small stage set up with drums and mic amps, backed by a red velvet curtain!

Being able to enjoy the music up close gives you a mood that's definitely different from a regular bar!

## Non-alcoholic cocktails and the signature Kick Ass Highball

Besides cocktails, Kick Ass Jazz Club also has non-alcoholic drinks and highballs, which were great for a light drink!

Warm popcorn came out as a default side.

We ordered one non-alcoholic cocktail and one highball! I loved that Kick Ass Jazz Club has non-alcoholic options so people who can't drink much can still enjoy the atmosphere together!

The Kick Ass Highball, their signature menu item! It's made with a house-made cordial that layers apple, coconut, and vanilla flavors and aromas. It has a richer, more distinctive aroma than a typical highball, so you get a sense of Kick Ass's own character from the very first sip. What I liked most is that it's not just a generic highball — it's a signature drink you can only taste here.

## Pastry pepperoni pizza: finished even as a second-round snack

We ordered the pastry pepperoni pizza, one of their signature menu items. The savory pastry dough is piled high with pepperoni.. it's a great pairing with all kinds of drinks.

Honestly... since it's a jazz club, I figured the food would just be something to go along with the mood, so I didn't expect much,, but it was so, so good.. that I finished it even though it was our second stop of the night.

It seems perfect for a light bite while watching the show!

Cucumber pickles and jalapeños are also served on the side, so you can adjust it to your taste.

Instead of a regular pizza dough, it has that crisp, light texture unique to layered pastry, which made it even better : 3
