Sinnonhyeon unmanned café with 3,800-won coffee: Selecto Coffee

Looking for a café near Sinnonhyeon Station where you can comfortably stay late into the night? This time I visited Selecto Coffee Sinnonhyeon Branch 24 Auto Brew Cafe.

As the name suggests, this is a café you can use 24 hours a day. Unlike a typical café, it switches to unmanned operation late at night, so you're not bound by hours to grab a coffee or take a break — that felt really convenient.

Where is Selecto Coffee Sinnonhyeon 24 Auto Brew, and what's the entrance like?

Selecto Coffee Sinnonhyeon Branch 24 Auto Brew Cafe sits on the 1st floor of a building on Gangnam-daero 79-gil, and a big Selecto Coffee sign out front makes it easy to spot.

The entrance reads "Take Out Coffee, Tea, Fresh Dessert," so it's also a good spot to grab coffee or drinks to go.

How big is Selecto Coffee Sinnonhyeon, and what seats are there?

Walking in, the first thing I noticed was that the space was much bigger than expected. A lot of cafés around Sinnonhyeon Station these days are cramped or have tables packed tight, but Selecto Coffee Sinnonhyeon has room to breathe, so it didn't feel stuffy.

Seating options were varied too. There were spots good for sitting alone with coffee or working on a laptop, as well as tables for groups, so you can pick whatever suits the situation. The space around each seat was fairly generous, which should make it comfortable to stay a while.

The interior caught my eye too — orange circular decorations and logos symbolizing Selecto Coffee lined the walls, giving the place a clean yet fun vibe. Overall it felt bright and tidy, so visiting alone didn't feel awkward at all.

How does 24 Auto Brew's unmanned operation work?

Since Selecto Coffee Sinnonhyeon operates 24 hours, during late hours it turns into an unmanned café with no staff on site. I thought this kind of system would be quite useful for anyone wanting to spend late nights at a café these days, or looking for somewhere to grab coffee early in the morning. The in-store signage confirms it: after staffed hours end, it runs as an unmanned store.

Printing, copying and scanning at Selecto Coffee Sinnonhyeon

Being able to use a printer at a café turned out to be way more convenient than I expected. If you suddenly need to print a document or need copies or scans, you can handle it while sipping coffee at the café.
