Evening Cafes in Syarosu-gil

Consider 777 Cafe if you want to walk farther toward Nakseongdae before sitting down. It serves cake and coffee deeper along Gwanak-ro 14-gil in Syarosu-gil. The fresh lemon curd cake uses lemon curd made in-house. Alongside fruit and fresh cream cakes, there are cheese and chocolate cakes, giving two people room to find a flavor they both want.

It stays open late on weekends. If you plan to add dinner to your walk, the closing time gives you less reason to rush. Even a single slice of cake costs a fair amount. Order one with your coffees if you plan to share.

Tram Seoul sits in a side lane on the station end of Syarosu-gil. It serves coffee and terrines. The venue description also lists wine and cocktails. It suits an evening for two when each person wants a different drink.

Try the signature terrine alongside your coffee. The Americano costs a little more, while the long opening hours give you more time. It is a useful stop if you want somewhere to sit after dinner near the station.

Ssuk (mugwort) terrine and an orange single-shot latte both appear on the menu at Chaiteu Coffee Stand, on Nambusunhwan-ro 226-gil in Syarosu-gil. Stop in when you want to add a different flavor to your usual coffee.

The mugwort terrine, chocolate terrine and walnut honey cake all cost the same. The two of you can choose by taste without weighing up an extra charge.

It works well when you want a little dessert after dinner. It closes earlier than the first two cafes, but a published last-order time makes evening plans easier. If you prefer a small cafe, keep it in mind for a stop in the side lanes near the station.

Hwangholgyeong serves Dutch babies in a basement on Gwanak-ro 14-gil in Syarosu-gil. The plain version comes with apple, apple jam and vanilla bean ganache cream. It suits two people who want to share a dessert other than a slice of cake.

Adding a plain Dutch baby to your coffee makes dessert a substantial part of the bill. Come when there is something you want to eat, rather than just for a quick drink. Remembering that the cafe is downstairs also helps you find it in the lane.

If you feel like fresh cream cake topped with fruit, continue to Titbit in Syarosu-gil. It is on the second floor in a lane off Gwanak-ro 14-gil toward Nakseongdae. The cafe describes its cakes as made with seasonal fruit and dairy cream. It suits a break spent sharing a fruit dessert.

It closes earlier on weekends than the other choices. It works well for a walk and cake before heading home, rather than a long conversation after dinner. Prices vary by cake slice. Check both the fruit and the price as you choose.
