Good to know
Why visit
- Nocxa is an upstairs coffee-and-cocktail stop near Noksapyeong, with filter coffee, a small dessert selection and a third-floor terrace. It is worth considering for a quiet conversation or a coffee break where the room is part of the appeal; the later opening hours also give it a different role in an evening itinerary.Naver Blog+2
What to order
- For coffee, an April 21, 2026 account by Haran describes two hand-drip blends: one nutty, the other fruity. They chose the Nocxa Blend and found red-fruit aromas with moderate acidity. After they mentioned liking strong coffee, the staff brewed it more deeply. Use that as a starting point for describing your own preference, rather than assuming every blend will taste the same.Naver Blog
- In an October 14, 2026 visit account, Yoonddoddo ordered Biscuit Blend filter coffee and a Brew Dolce Latte, finding the latter clean-tasting. They chose Korean melon Greek yogurt over Basque cheesecake: the tart yogurt-and-fruit combination was refreshing, but they thought it might pair better with alcohol than their coffee. Choose the melon dessert if a tangy fruit direction appeals; it offers a different pairing from sweet cake.Naver Blog
Which seat suits you
- Haran described a round group table, counter seating and two-person tables, with good afternoon light and a subdued atmosphere suited to solo time or a quiet conversation. Yoonddoddo's later account also found the third-floor terrace peaceful. The indoor seating is the more predictable choice if the weather does not suit sitting outside.Naver Blog+1
Before going
- The official profile lists floors two and three at 45 Noksapyeong-daero 40-gil, opening at noon and closing at midnight Sunday–Thursday or 2am Friday–Saturday. If coffee is your main reason to go, check its last-order time before a late visit: the venue's closing time does not establish how late every drink is served.Instagram
