From a third-floor rooftop table, the chicken fricassee and seafood Shanghai pasta went down well with cold beer, the creamy sauce balancing the pasta's chilli heat. Seoul Boutique is a good choice near Seoul Station when you want a night view and Western food in one visit. ## Good to know - **Address**: 209-1 Manripjae-ro, Jung-gu, Seoul (steps from Exit 15 of Seoul Station) - **Hours**: Mon 17:30–24:00 / Tue–Fri 11:30–24:00 (break 14:30–17:30) / Sat 13:00–24:00 / Sun 13:00–23:00 - **Parking**: No on-site parking; use Siloam Building Parking Lot or Son Kee-chung Sports Park Public Parking Lot - **Seating**: 1F pub (pets allowed on the outdoor terrace), 2F vintage lounge with a group table at the back, 3F rooftop - **Ordering**: Scan the QR code at your table and order through the app - **What we ordered**: Chicken fricassee, seafood Shanghai pasta (pickles served as standard) *as written by the visitor on Sep 17, 2026* I found a rooftop Western-style spot near Seoul Station with a fantastic vibe and I couldn't wait to write about it, so here goes! ![Atmospheric seating on Seoul Boutique's rooftop](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta-01-x0aa1-900.webp) *🫧 The vibe is unreal~~ full romance!!🫧* I had plans near Seoul Station for the first time in a while, so I finally checked out 'Seoul Boutique,' which has been all over Instagram and reviews for its amazing atmosphere. 😆 ![Seoul Boutique's building exterior on Manripjae-ro](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta-02-17yni-1200.webp) ## Where is Seoul Boutique, and where do you park? Seoul Boutique is at 209-1 Manripjae-ro, Jung-gu, Seoul, a short walk from Exit 15 of Seoul Station, so it was super easy to find. I had no idea a place like this existed in the Manri-dong alleys — from the rooftop to the stylish seating, it's perfect for a date. The entrance alone has so much character that I was already excited before even walking in. ![Seoul Boutique's entrance with an exotic feel](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta-03-nxumt-900.webp) There's a real exotic feel to it too! If you're looking for a date course near Seoul Station, keep this one in mind. > [Business hours] > Monday: 17:30 - 24:00 > Tue/Wed/Thu/Fri: 11:30 - 24:00 (break time 14:30 - 17:30) > Saturday: 13:00 - 24:00 > Sunday: 13:00 - 23:00 It's even better that it's so easy to get to right by Seoul Station — a short walk from Exit 15. The accessibility made things really convenient. There's no dedicated parking lot, so if you're driving, - Siloam Building Parking Lot - Son Ki-jeong Sports Park Public Parking Lot these two are your best bets for parking! ## Three floors, three moods at Seoul Boutique Seoul Boutique has a completely different vibe on each floor — a pub on the first floor, a vintage lounge on the second, and a rooftop on the third. The building's exterior is already vintage yet stylish, right up my alley, and once inside it's easy to pick a seat based on your mood. ![Vintage and stylish interior of Seoul Boutique](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta-04-6nwzu-900.webp) So pretty.... > 🌟 Highlight 🌟 Enjoying great food while looking out at a beautiful night view kept both my eyes and my mouth happy the whole time! If you want to step away from the busy center of Seoul for a bit and really enjoy some relaxation and romance, this place has serious Instagram vibes!! If you're looking for a good spot for a wedding invitation gathering or a reunion with old friends, give it a try. ### First floor: the Unique Pub ![Seoul Boutique's unique pub space on the 1st floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta-05-wqty1-900.webp) It has a trendy, casual pub feel, perfect for a quick beer after work or a chat with friends. ![Pet-friendly outdoor terrace seats on the 1st floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta-06-d3q5l-900.webp) (By the way, the outdoor terrace seats on the 1st floor are pet-friendly too!) ![Stylish stairway leading up to the 2nd floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta-07-1pkwx-900.webp) Walk up the stylishly decorated stairs and you're right on the 2nd floor. ### Second floor: the Vintage Lounge There's group seating in the back of the 2nd floor. If you're planning a private gathering, booking the group seats on the 2nd floor looks like a good option. ![Vintage lounge seating on Seoul Boutique's 2nd floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta-08-1gbvw-900.webp) The 2nd floor's vintage, hip styling had great atmosphere too, and I almost sat there, but with the breeze blowing so nicely, it had to be the rooftop, right?! So this time I settled into the 3rd floor rooftop! ### Third floor: the rooftop ![The 3rd floor rooftop before sunset](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta-09-hu8hc-900.webp) It looked like this~ ![Rooftop seating lit up at night](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta-10-14f1t-900.webp) And then it turned into this~ Once it gets dark, the lights come on and the atmosphere gets even better! ![Seoul's night skyline viewed from the rooftop](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta-11-145bb-900.webp) ![Rooftop view with green trees in sight](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta-12-uf3z7-900.webp) From the rooftop you can see all of Seoul at a glance, and with the green trees right in view, it was so calming. ## Ordering by QR code at your table At Seoul Boutique you order via the QR code at your table.

At Seoul Boutique we picked two menu items: 'chicken fricassee' and 'seafood Shanghai pasta.' In such a great atmosphere, both the look and taste of the dishes were on point. 🍝 ![A basic plate of pickles served first](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta-18-1vreg-900.webp) Basic pickles come out first. ### Chicken fricassee ![Chicken fricassee topped generously with cream sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta-19-1ltq5-900.webp) First up, the 'chicken fricassee' had crispy skin and juicy meat, soaked through with a deep, rich cream sauce — the savoriness and umami exploded with every bite! 🍗 ![Cross-section of the crispy, juicy chicken fricassee](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta-20-1ucxi-900.webp) It was smooth without being greasy, the kind of dish anyone would love regardless of age or taste. ![Chicken fricassee plate scraped clean of sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta-21-idksa-900.webp) The sauce was so good we scraped the bowl clean. Highly recommend this one! ### Seafood Shanghai pasta ![Seafood Shanghai pasta loaded with seafood](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta-22-bmq9z-900.webp) A spicy, savory aroma spread out, and the pasta was loaded generously with fresh seafood, making it fun to pick through. It's on the spicier side, so if you like spicy food, give it a try~🌶️ That said, it's not as spicy as yeoptteok (spicy stir-fried rice cakes) — more around the level of Shin Ramyun! ![Close-up of the spicy seafood Shanghai pasta](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta-23-149sr-900.webp) The overall quality of the food felt thoughtful and well made, so it also went nicely with wine or other drinks. 🍷 ## How the two dishes work together, and who Seoul Boutique suits The combination of chicken fricassee and seafood Shanghai pasta at Seoul Boutique was just right! ![Table set with both chicken fricassee and pasta](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta-24-1qcgx-765.webp) The spiciness cut right through the richness of the chicken, so the two dishes worked really well together. And the plating was great too, a treat for the eyes! Aren't the dishes pretty too~~ This place seemed to pay attention to even the smallest details. The dishes were so pretty I wanted to copy them for myself! This place is great for: - ✅️ Anyone near Seoul Station looking for a date course with great vibes and a beautiful view - ✅️ Anyone who wants an open view of Namsan's night skyline while enjoying good Western food and a glass of wine - ✅️ Anyone looking for a spot for a wedding invitation gathering, birthday party, or group dinner ## Where it is - Seoul Boutique (서울부띠끄) - 209-1 Manripjae-ro, Jung-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 중구 만리재로 209-1 - 37.5561132, 126.968238 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%84%9C%EC%9A%B8%EB%B6%80%EB%9D%A0%EB%81%84/@37.5561132,126.968238,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@lipstick-drawer/seoul-boutique-rooftop-chicken-fricassee-pasta/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
