Todaaay I'm introducing Coffee Bean G1 (커피콩G1), a café in Dotong-dong near Namwon City Hall that's also a dessert hotspot! ☕️🤍


Where to park for Coffee Bean G1 in Namwon
Coffee Bean G1 has no dedicated parking lot, so you need to park on the street nearby. 🚗 It was a weekday evening, so we parked in the free Namwon City Hall lot and walked over!






What is the atmosphere like at Coffee Bean G1?
The inside of Coffee Bean G1 is warm, calm and neatly kept, so it's nice on your own and comfy for chatting with a friend. The moment we walked in, we felt that warm, calm vibe!
With such a soft atmosphere, it's a perfect spot to relax over a cup of coffee.. >_< 🥰 The owner is seriously devoted to coffee, so they sell coffee beans separately too.

Coffee Bean G1 menu: are there teas besides coffee?
Coffee Bean G1 has not only coffee but also a variety of teas and other drinks. I liked that you can choose decaf coffee, and there were plenty of fruit teas, so you can pick whatever suits your taste.. ><
I think it's a great café even for people who can't drink coffee, haha



What we ordered at Coffee Bean G1
- Decaf iced Americano ₩7,000
- Iced plum tea ₩6,000
- Iced passion fruit tea ₩6,000


🍹 Iced green plum tea (6,000 won)
The iced plum tea at Coffee Bean G1 had a sweet-and-sour plum flavor that felt so cool and refreshing. The heat just melted away, so I was happy! haha
My dad, who is super picky about food, mentioned several times how good this place's plum tea was. It was rich, and the sweetness was just right.


☕ Decaf iced Americano (7,000 won)
The decaf iced Americano at Coffee Bean G1 had a strong coffee aroma, yet it's decaf so you can drink it without worry. I loved it.. >< It tasted clean and crisp, perfect for a hot day.

🥭 Iced passion fruit tea (6,000 won)
The iced passion fruit tea at Coffee Bean G1 was full of that fresh passion fruit aroma, and it lifted my mood the whole time I drank it. The balance of sweet and tart is great, so I'd recommend it as a summer drink.. ><
My mom especially loved the crunchy texture of the passion fruit seeds!

What to order at Coffee Bean G1
If I had to pick just one at Coffee Bean G1, I'd strongly recommend the cold iced plum tea. The other drinks and coffee were good too, but this was so, so ridiculously delicious that I wanted to ask the owner, "Um, do you happen to sell the plum syrup separately?"




Is Coffee Bean G1 a good quiet café in Dotong-dong, Namwon?
If you're looking for a quiet, comfortable café in Dotong-dong, Namwon, I really recommend Coffee Bean G1! haha It's a cozy place to spend time unhurried, and the sensibility and kindness of the owner, who is a painter, made it even more memorable.
The owner was so kind and attentive that I want to keep coming back...


With decaf coffee and a variety of teas, it's a place anyone can visit comfortably! It works for a Namwon trip itinerary, and even we, a local Namwon family, want to stop by again. 😊☕ And of course you can pay with Namwon Sarang gift vouchers, so please give it some love!
