Sangsu Station bagel café with bean-choice coffee: Minkyu Appane Bagel
In short
Minkyu Appane Bagel Hapjeong Branch is a bakery café near Sangsu Station in Mapo, Seoul, where bagels are baked in a wood-fired oven every morning. At the 10am opening the writer looked over the wood-fired bagel lineup and ordered an almond choco bagel with an americano (4,500 won), picking the fruity signature blend from the classic, signature and decaf beans on offer. Minkyu Appane Bagel is as much a coffee stop as a bagel stop, with comfortable seats for working or reading.

Wood-fired bagels near Sangsu Station: Minkyu Appane Bagel Hapjeong Branch
Minkyu Appane Bagel's thing is 'wood-fired bagels baked fresh every morning.'
Minkyu Appane Bagel Hapjeong Branch: opening time and atmosphere
The place opens at 10am, but if you don't get there right at opening you might run into a bagel sellout — speed is everything at this spot among spots! They also sell bingsu (shaved ice dessert) made with seasonal fruit, famous for being cheap!
Customers had already settled into seats inside, and there were plenty of comfortable seats prepared too, so it's great for spending time working or reading a book.
The wood-fired oven and bagel lineup at the entrance
The wood-fired oven you meet right at the entrance!!
Checking out the lineup of bagels fresh out of the wood-fired oven ✔️
- Wood-fired bagels baked fresh every morning
- The distinctive look and texture of wood-fired bagels
- Hearty sandwiches made with the bagels
- Coffee that pairs well with the bagels/sandwiches
- Great for breakfast, brunch, or a light lunch
They sell not just bagels but also baked cookies and rusks, great to pair with a cup of coffee.
Seeing a tray full of bread makes a bread lover's heart feel rich.
Cream cheese, bagel sandwiches and seasonal fruit bingsu
The refrigerated showcase displays cream cheese and sandwiches that go great with the bagels — if a sandwich sells out, they make it fresh on the spot!
Just looking at how fresh this fruit is, the bingsu must taste amazing..
Choosing your coffee beans and ordering the almond choco bagel
There's a good variety of drinks prepared to go with the bread! Being able to choose your beans is a 💯 — Classic / Signature / Decaf options, and I ordered the Signature blend, which has some acidity!
Check the bagel prices below, and just hearing the name 'almond choco bagel' told me it was a flavor I love — had to grab it!
You can get water at the self-serve bar, and there's a microwave available to warm your bagel, but since mine was fresh out of the wood-fired oven, I didn't need to use it!
Americano (₩4,500)
Worth a stop when you're in Hapjeong
A bagel spot that's also a coffee bean spot! The lighting was just right too, so spending time drinking coffee felt like pure relaxation.. Feeling tired from daily life makes me think I should spend my free time more meaningfully — gotta make the most of the days passing by. If you're coming to Hapjeong, this is a must-try: Minkyu Appane Bagel.
