This is the place where I first realized coffee could have so many different flavors and aromas. ![Café interior with cold brew and brewing coffee displayed](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite-03-16kpa-900.webp) The first floor is set up like a bar table, so you can watch the coffee being made. It's a place to enjoy a bit of leisure in the middle of the busy city. ![First-floor bar table where you can watch coffee being made](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite-04-15m1n-900.webp) Central Site is especially famous for its tiramisu. Strawberry, Lotus, Brownie — there are so many flavors. ![Tiramisu display case with strawberry, Lotus, brownie, and more](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite-05-100ra-900.webp) ![Dessert corner with various tiramisu flavors](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite-06-1oqor-900.webp) The coffee aroma just wafts through the air~ You can really enjoy the rich, smooth taste of the coffee properly. The staff kindly explain the flavors too. The employees are really friendly. ![Barista brewing hand-drip coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite-07-hysvy-900.webp) ![Café bar counter with drip brewing tools](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite-08-3kqsy-900.webp) ## Grape-scented brewed coffee: a pick for acidity lovers I ordered the brewing coffee, and the refreshing grape aroma and flavor were impressive and lively 😃 It's also a perfect spot for people who like acidity in their coffee. You can taste various citrus-based, tangy fruit-forward coffees. ![A cup of bright, fruity brewing coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite-09-l9ezf-900.webp) I loved the hip atmosphere and the free, easygoing feeling. Yeonnam-dong really is a hot spot, isn't it. ![Hip-vibe interior of the Yeonnam-dong café](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite-10-10mi2-900.webp) It'd also make a great coffee gift ❤️ ![Bean packages displayed for gifting](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite-11-1tx1x-m-900.webp) The cold brew looked delicious too. You can enjoy a blended coffee that's both refreshing and nutty. ## Seating at Central Site Yeonnam, from the first floor to the rooftop On the first floor of Central Site Yeonnam there are seats tucked away toward the back too. There are actually quite a lot of seats! The 2nd and 3rd floors have even more seating. Isn't the atmosphere just amazing? 😃 Such a nice spot for a low-key date. ![Tucked-away seating on the first floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite-12-2jtrt-900.webp) ![Café seating with a great date-night atmosphere](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite-13-pwr2w-900.webp) I took a seat on the second floor. They bring the dessert and coffee to your table themselves. And if you ask, they'll explain the coffee too. ![Second-floor space at Central Site Yeonnam where we sat](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite-14-y08us-900.webp) ![Second-floor table with dessert and coffee served](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite-15-oxozp-900.webp) It kind of feels like being in a jazz bar. I liked that the space wasn't noisy or echoey. ![Second-floor lighting with a jazz-bar-like feel](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite-16-1rrn7-900.webp) There's a bar table facing the window, so quite a few people were there working solo on their laptops. It's also a nice place for a low-key chat. The third floor is the rooftop, and it feels wonderfully open with a view of the outside — great vibes. The weather was nice so a cool breeze was blowing through. On a snowy day, definitely head up to the rooftop. The atmosphere is amazing. There's a good amount of seating too 👍 Since it's not located in the loud, bustling part of Hongdae, it's a quiet and cozy space. ![Wide view of the quiet, cozy café interior](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite-17-1hpln-900.webp) ## One big tiramisu shared by three, plus grapefruit lemon tea The tiramisu, coffee, and grapefruit lemon tea arrived! The tiramisu was pretty big, so the three of us shared it and it was plenty! The ice cubes were huge and gorgeous too lol, kind of felt like sipping whiskey. Somehow it made everything feel more hip and sophisticated lol. ![Iced coffee with large square ice cubes alongside grapefruit lemon tea](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite-18-bssod-1200.webp) It's so nice being able to enjoy a variety of coffees that suit my taste! I got properly hooked on the sweet-and-tangy coffee flavor. The subtle fruity sweetness, the smooth finish, and the sweet coffee flavor — I was won over. ![A cup of specialty coffee with fruity sweetness](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite-19-cur0h-900.webp) It really made me realize again how varied coffee can be ❤️ ![Coffee and tiramisu set on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite-20-z6qcl-900.webp) ![Coffee and dessert together on the café table](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite-21-zbv3h-900.webp) The tiramisu I always order here was delicious as always. The cocoa powder on top has a little crunch, and a bittersweet flavor spreads through your mouth. ![A large slice of tiramisu topped with cocoa powder](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite-22-1khzm-900.webp) It's super moist and soft~ You can fully taste the creamy, rich coffee flavor and aroma 🌼 Coffee and tiramisu really are a perfect match. Sipping slowly to savor the coffee, then getting lost in the sweet tiramisu~ It was a happy dessert time. ![A forkful of moist tiramisu cross-section](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite/yeonnam-cafe-tiramisu-grapefruit-tea-centralsite-23-3zqyb-900.webp) ## Is Central Site Yeonnam worth a third visit?
