After a meat dinner, three friends stopped in for salted choco financier (4,100 won), lemon madeleine (4,300 won) and fig cake (8,500 won) with a decaf iced americano and a decaf iced einspänner, first sitting indoors because the 3rd floor terrace was full, then moving outside and pulling up a third chair at a two-seat table. With decaf beans and a wide range of baked goods and cakes, Upper and Under works well as a second stop after dinner. ## Good to know - **Location**: 28 Gangnam-daero 102-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul (B1, 1F, 2F) — 5-minute walk from Sinnonhyeon Station - **Hours**: Daily 11:00–22:00 - **Space**: Café on floors 1 to 3; order on the 2nd floor; 2nd and 3rd floors linked by an interior staircase; outdoor terrace on the 3rd floor - **Salted choco financier**: 4,100 won - **Lemon madeleine**: 4,300 won - **Fig cake**: 8,500 won - **Decaf iced americano**: 7,000 won - **Decaf iced einspänner**: 8,500 won - **Drink price range**: 6,000–8,000 won - **Event**: Receipt review event running now (first 10 groups per day) - **Price reference**: ₩4,100 ≈ $3 · ₩4,300 ≈ $3.1 · ₩8,500 ≈ $6.1 (2026-09-21) *as written by the visitor on Sep 17, 2026* Upper and Under, a café near Sinnonhyeon Station in Gangnam ![Upper and Under, a café near Sinnonhyeon Station, main photo](https://img.superchart.com/images/upper-and-under-sinnonhyeon-terrace-dessert-cafe/upper-and-under-sinnonhyeon-terrace-dessert-cafe-01-19qbs-1200.webp) It's totally terrace weather these days〰️🤍 My friends and I met up in Sinnonhyeon for dinner and said let's find a café with an outdoor terrace, and it turned out there was a café right near the restaurant that was exactly my style✨ From baked goods to cakes, the dessert lineup was huge, plus it had a terrace — perfect.

Gangnam Sinnonhyeon Station aesthetic café review, let's go〰️🤍 - 📍 Location: 지하1층, 1층, 2층, 28 Gangnam-daero102-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 🕰️ Hours: Daily 11:00–22:00 ## Where is Upper and Under, and how are its floors laid out? Upper and Under is right near Sinnonhyeon Station, about a 5-minute walk away, so the location is so good haha. The entire building is run as the café, spread across 3 floors from 1st to 3rd. The 1st floor is a separate, independent space from the 2nd and 3rd, and you order on the 2nd floor ☕️ (the 2nd and 3rd floors are connected by interior stairs) ![Exterior of Upper and Under, which occupies the whole building](https://img.superchart.com/images/upper-and-under-sinnonhyeon-terrace-dessert-cafe/upper-and-under-sinnonhyeon-terrace-dessert-cafe-02-usasl-900.webp) The 1st floor café space — so quiet and full of good vibes ![The quiet 1st floor café space at Upper and Under](https://img.superchart.com/images/upper-and-under-sinnonhyeon-terrace-dessert-cafe/upper-and-under-sinnonhyeon-terrace-dessert-cafe-03-is9vm-900.webp) ![1st floor seating and the aesthetic atmosphere at Upper and Under](https://img.superchart.com/images/upper-and-under-sinnonhyeon-terrace-dessert-cafe/upper-and-under-sinnonhyeon-terrace-dessert-cafe-04-19vu4-900.webp) Go up the stairs beside the building to the 2nd floor and that's where you order! ![Stairs beside the building leading up to the 2nd floor ordering area](https://img.superchart.com/images/upper-and-under-sinnonhyeon-terrace-dessert-cafe/upper-and-under-sinnonhyeon-terrace-dessert-cafe-05-1oosv-900.webp) The café space spans 3 floors so it felt wide and varied!
