Yeonnam-dong always feels new no matter how often I visit, with charming, distinctive shops tucked down every alley. Today, I visited an appealing spot in an alley off the Gyeongui Line Forest Trail in Yeonnam-dong, set on the first floor of a nearby detached house, where tranquility and atmosphere coexist.

This is a Blue Ribbon-listed spot that has become one of Yeonnam-dong's representatives. I visited Pip Espresso Bar (피프에스프레소바), a Yeonnam-dong café known for fragrant espresso and Americanos, plus desserts that deliver on both looks and flavor.

## Pip Espresso Bar location and parking

![Pip Espresso Bar location guide](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeonnam-cherry-tiramisu-espresso/yeonnam-cherry-tiramisu-espresso-04-almt7-900.webp)

Follow the Gyeongui Line Forest Trail from Hongik University Station into the Yeonnam-dong alleys and you will find it easily. It is on the first floor at 5 Seongmisan-ro 29-gil, Mapo-gu, Seoul, 744 m from Exit 3 of Hongik University Station on Lines 2, the Airport Railroad, and the Gyeongui–Jungang Line—about a 10-minute walk.

There is no dedicated parking, so if you are driving, I recommend using the nearby Yeonnam-dong public parking lot or a paid parking lot.

The first floor of this atmospheric detached house has been beautifully converted, making an impression from the entrance onward. Inside, the stylish, polished interior and various mood-setting objects with a cool edge immediately catch the eye.

There are so many thoughtfully designed corners that wherever you take a photo, you get an Instagram-worthy shot. The outdoor terrace is especially charming. On a crisp autumn day or a sunny afternoon, sit outside with a cup of coffee and you can fully take in Yeonnam-dong's particular romance. It is also great that this café welcomes pets.

We ordered two refreshing Americanos and a cherry tiramisu that looked sweet and tangy even at first glance!

### Americano ₩5,000

The touch of a coffee professional—the bean flavor and extraction balance were so good!!! I chose beans with a bright acidity, while the nutty beans my companion chose had a wonderfully full, roasted body too. It really felt like a great coffee spot; it had been a while since I had properly enjoyed such a delicious cup of coffee!

### Cherry tiramisu ₩9,500

It arrived beautifully arranged, a plated dessert that made it impossible not to take photos. Mascarpone cream and sweet-tart cherries came together in the ultimate sweet treat. It was exactly the kind of dessert that gives you a sugar boost and sends your blood sugar soaring—in the best way for a mood lift! Pip Espresso Bar is a fantastic Yeonnam-dong dessert spot. Every dessert looked pretty and tempting, so next time I will have to try the menu one by one!

## A café worth adding to a Gyeongui Line Forest Trail route

Pip Espresso Bar is very close to the Gyeongui Line Forest Trail in Yeonnam-dong, making it an easy stop on your route. After exploring the Hongik University Station shopping area, Yeonnam-dong's many pop-up stores, and great restaurants, it is just the right place to take a break.
