I ordered chocolate banana tiramisu, a lemon financier, chocolate latte, mango ade, and an Americano, then explored the study-café-like eighth floor. Verdict: a great pick for lingering over dessert, conversation, and rooftop vibes. ## Good to know - **Hours**: Weekdays 08:00–24:00; weekends 11:00–23:30 - **Parking**: Enter through the rear entrance and ask the first-floor staff. SUVs, compact cars, tall vehicles, and large sedans K9-size or above cannot park. - **Space**: Large café across five floors, a study-café-like space on the 8th floor, and rooftop access - **What I ordered**: Chocolate banana tiramisu, lemon financier, chocolate latte, mango ade, and Americano *as written by the visitor on Sep 9, 2026* I visited Selected Nicks, a large café near Gangnam Station, while looking for a café with a nice atmosphere. This time, rather than a typical little café, I wanted somewhere spacious where I could relax and spend some time—and that’s how I found it. Even the baked goods are seriously delicious. The space is divided across several floors and there’s even a rooftop, so exploring the café itself is part of the fun. There’s also a separate space for studying, and since the tiramisu is especially famous here, I tried the chocolate banana tiramisu too. For drinks, I ordered a chocolate latte, mango ade, and an Americano. ![Chocolate banana tiramisu and drink order](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-01-1x0yb-900.webp) Selected Nicks ![Selected Nicks café and chocolate banana tiramisu introduction](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-02-u0la4-900.webp) ## Selected Nicks location and parking information Selected Nicks is located at 37 Teheran-ro 4-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul. It’s conveniently located for getting there from Gangnam Station, including by public transportation. There are so many cafés around Gangnam Station, but when you’re looking for one on this scale, there are fewer choices than you might think. So if you’re meeting friends or on a date around Gangnam Station and want a café where you can stay awhile, I recommend checking the location and stopping by. If you’ll be parking, enter through the rear entrance and ask the first-floor staff. Search “Taewon Haksa” in your navigation app and drive to the end of the alley. SUVs, compact cars, tall vehicles, and large sedans K9-size or above cannot park. ## Gangnam Station outdoor terrace and large café exterior ![Selected Nicks café exterior near Gangnam Station](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-03-134if-900.webp) When I first arrived at Selected Nicks, it felt a little different from the usual cafés near Gangnam Station. The space was larger than I had expected while searching for a café, so it immediately caught my eye. ![Selected Nicks outdoor terrace](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-04-s66jn-900.webp) And right when you walk in, there’s a cool outdoor terrace with that Korean outdoor-drinking-tent kind of vibe ☕️ It’s not actually that common to find a café this large in the middle of Gangnam Station, so I’d been curious about it from the start. Once inside, the café is split across several floors, making it fun just to look around and decide where to sit. ## Different Selected Nicks spaces on every floor ![Spacious interior at Selected Nicks](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-05-1nl45-900.webp) One of the biggest reasons I chose Selected Nicks was the spaciousness. True to its reputation as a large Gangnam Station café, it spans five floors. Each floor has a different concept, so it’s fun to explore too!! Cafés around Gangnam Station are often crowded with tight table spacing, but this place is divided into several areas, which I liked because you can find a seat that suits the mood you want. ![Café seating divided by floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-06-hweqg-900.webp) ![Selected Nicks café space on different floors](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-07-rduaa-900.webp) ![Seating to choose by mood](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-08-4lpt3-900.webp) ![Café interior with an exhibition-like feel](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-09-a6029-900.webp) The atmosphere changes a little from floor to floor, so instead of grabbing a seat as soon as you enter, it might be nice to take a lap and find a space you love. It’s a café, but it also felt a bit like an art gallery? Or an exhibition. ![Collaborative items sold at the café](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-10-1d54b-900.webp) They were also selling collaborative items like these. The bags had that trendy, hip style, so I kind of wanted one haha. ![Café collaboration goods and bags](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-11-u9dit-900.webp) ![Space for collaborative items sold at the café](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-12-r64hb-900.webp) The eighth floor has the feel of a study café. No one was chatting—there were only people studying. ![Quiet eighth-floor space with a study-café feel](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-13-kh4mo-900.webp) If you’re looking for study cafés in Seoul near Gangnam Station, this could be a good one to visit. It has a relaxed study-café feel that isn’t too stuffy. ![Relaxed café space good for studying](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-14-ocjlo-900.webp) ## Outdoor-bar vibes on the rooftop And the rooftop is something you can’t leave out at Selected Nicks. Being able to enjoy drinks and dessert indoors, then head up to the rooftop, felt like a charm that sets it apart from an ordinary café. It made me think this is a great café for meeting friends or your partner and staying a little longer, rather than just having one coffee and leaving, haha. ![Selected Nicks rooftop photo spot](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-15-1y2o5-900.webp) There’s a photo spot on the rooftop too, and the evenings have been cool lately, so it seems perfect for enjoying that outdoor-bar café mood haha. ## Tiramisu and dessert menu ![Selected Nicks drinks and tiramisu menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-16-ovlu2-900.webp) ![Selected Nicks café menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-17-1t4z1-900.webp) Selected Nicks has a wide range of drinks, but it’s especially known for its tiramisu. ![Several kinds of tiramisu desserts](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-18-idvlc-900.webp) ![Tiramisu and bakery dessert selection](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-19-in02x-900.webp) ![Café desserts and bakery menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-20-1c57p-900.webp) ![Varied tiramisu choices](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-21-8gnck-900.webp) The tiramisu currently on sale comes in several varieties, from classic to banana, chocolate banana, and pistachio, so you can choose according to your taste. Beyond tiramisu, there are desserts such as financiers, madeleines, and cookies, making it easy to pick something with coffee. They used to have salt bread too, but it was probably sold out because it was evening. I’ve been here before, and the baked goods are honestly delicious across the board,, 🥨 ## Chocolate banana tiramisu and drink order - Chocolate banana tiramisu - Lemon financier - Chocolate latte - Mango ade - Americano I came for the salt bread, but it was sold out, so tiramisu was the substitute 🙌🏻 ![Chocolate banana tiramisu dessert](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-22-hl2ub-900.webp) First up was the chocolate banana tiramisu I’d been most excited about that day. Since Selected Nicks is known for tiramisu, I debated what to get, but I love the chocolate-and-banana combination, so I chose this one. If you love tiramisu, I think one advantage of Selected Nicks is being able to choose from classic tiramisu through different flavors according to your taste. The sweetness of banana plus the sweetness of chocolate makes for a serious sugar recharge 🍌 ![Chocolate latte, mango ade, and Americano](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-23-qxu8q-900.webp) I also ordered a chocolate latte. It goes well with chocolate desserts, so if you like sweet things, it would be a good one to order alongside them. The mango ade was a great choice for anyone wanting something refreshing, while the Americano was, as always, an easy café classic. If you visit as a group, it could be nice for everyone to order different drinks and share a tiramisu. The menu is especially varied, so rather than choosing just one item, it’s a place where visiting with several people and ordering a few things to share is fun. ## If you’re looking for a Gangnam Station café to stay awhile ![Overall review of the large Selected Nicks café](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-24-wh37n-900.webp) Selected Nicks, which I visited this time, is a great match for anyone looking for a large café near Gangnam Station 🙌🏻 There are tons of small, cozy cafés around the station, but I wanted to spend time leisurely in a spacious place, so I visited Selected Nicks. The fact that its space is divided across several floors definitely makes it different from other cafés. Above all, you can use everything from the outdoor terrace to the rooftop, so it was nice to spend time exploring different spaces instead of staying indoors the whole time. And as you’d expect from a place known for tiramisu, there are several types ready to choose from, making it appealing for dessert lovers too. The baked goods are delicious overall as well 🏠 I chose the chocolate banana tiramisu that day, but if I come back next time, I want to try another kind. It’s good for meeting a friend and chatting, fine for a date, and worth considering when you want a café near Gangnam Station where you can stay a while. Especially if you’re looking for a large Gangnam Station café, I think you should try Selected Nicks, with its spacious rooms and rooftop. On a day when you’re looking for a café in Gangnam Station, Selected Nicks lets you enjoy the space as much as the coffee and dessert. Next time, I’m trying another tiramisu 🥰 Officially approved as a Gangnam Station dessert spot!!!! ## Where it is - Selected Nicks (태원) - 24-10 Gangnam-daero 84-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 강남구 강남대로84길 24-10 - 37.4963539, 127.0308039 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%83%9C%EC%9B%90/@37.4963539,127.0308039,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@sugar-jar/gangnam-rooftop-tiramisu-selectednics-4bfd/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
