Every time I come, the staff are kind too, so it's an easy place to hang out. ![First-floor hall with guests seated](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7-06-1kvra-900.webp) There were especially a lot of foreign visitors this time. 5to7 Seongsu Main Branch is a soufflé spot that's gotten word-of-mouth even among international visitors. ## Terrace Seats ![5to7 Seongsu Main Branch terrace seating](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7-07-1389x-900.webp) There's a terrace space too. The terrace seats must be great on a nice day, haha! ## Second Floor Interior — Good for Laptop Work and Dates ![Spacious second-floor interior with roomy tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7-08-41v61-900.webp) The second floor has a bit more tables set up with more room. ![Second-floor tables that fit groups](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7-09-97ozn-900.webp) It looks good for 1-2 people, but also suitable for groups of 4 or more. ![Quiet second-floor seats on a Tuesday afternoon](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7-10-uzq9d-900.webp) This review is from a Tuesday 2pm visit :) Outside meal times, it's nice and quiet to enjoy. ![A second-floor spot good for laptop work](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7-11-1l8n4-900.webp) I'd recommend this as a good café for laptop work near Seoul Forest, Seongsu, and Ttukseom Station — it looks fine for getting work done too. ![Second-floor space with generous table spacing](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7-12-1pwpj-900.webp) The table spacing is decent and the atmosphere is calm, so I'd also recommend it as a date or blind date spot near Seoul Forest, Seongsu, and Ttukseom Station :) ## Menu and Soufflé Lineup ![Soufflé menu board at 5to7 Seongsu Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7-13-1rwmy-900.webp) ![Coffee, non-coffee, and tea drink menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7-14-56fbo-900.webp) 5to7 Seongsu Main Branch has a wide soufflé lineup: ube, strawberry, mango, pearl crème brûlée, tiramisu, and matcha soufflé. With so many soufflé options, it's easy to pick one to your taste, and with coffee / non-coffee / tea / ade all available, there are plenty of drink choices to pair with dessert too. (Decaf swap available) ![Pearl crème brûlée soufflé and drinks set on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7-15-1b5db-900.webp) ### What I Ordered - Pearl crème brûlée soufflé ₩21,000 - Iced café latte ₩6,500 - Dutch americano ₩6,000 ## Why I Keep Coming Back: The Pearl Crème Brûlée Soufflé ![Iced café latte and Dutch americano](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7-16-tbpc3-900.webp) The coffee is clean and nutty with no unnecessary notes! Since the soufflé is on the sweeter side, it paired well with the coffee. ![Fluffy, puffed-up pearl crème brûlée soufflé](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7-17-9i3ti-m-900.webp) You know how there are days when this fluffy soufflé just hits the spot? I come back here on those days. The soufflé is so fluffy and soft, it looks delicious just by looking at it, and when you eat it, it's soft and sweet in a way that just makes you happy. ![Cross-section of the soufflé after a bite is taken](https://img.superchart.com/images/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7-18-1mxc7-900.webp) ## Where it is - 5to7 Seongsu Main Branch (5to7 성수본점) - 1F, 44-13 Seoulsup 2-gil, Seongdong-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 성동구 서울숲2길 44-13 1층 - 37.5461191, 127.0432656 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/5to7%20%EC%84%B1%EC%88%98%EB%B3%B8%EC%A0%90/@37.5461191,127.0432656,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@seoul-bean-stroll/seoul-forest-souffle-cafe-solo-work-5to7/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
