Coffee & Brunch (The Hanok)
Cafes & bakeries · Bukchon
Traditional teas give The Hanok a more Korean-flavoured brunch pause in Bukchon. Try cinnamon punch or jujube tea with an injeolmi croffle, where roasted-soybean topping meets croissant-waffle pastry, then settle into the old-house setting rather than making it another latte stop.

Good to know
Why visit
- The Hanok on Gyedong-gil is a candidate for a traditional-tea break with something sweet, or a small brunch stop. Start by deciding whether you want tea and an injeolmi-style croffle (a croissant-waffle with a roasted-soybean topping) or one of the listed brunch plates, then choose a seat in the old-house setting.DiningCode+1
Tea and a croffle
- In an August 2025 Diningcode review, 까프리 warmly recommended the traditional teas after ordering cold sujeonggwa (Korean cinnamon punch), jujube or red-date tea, and an injeolmi croffle. That combination offers a more specific starting point than simply ordering another latte. Ask which drinks can be served cold if you are arriving after a walk.DiningCode
- The Diningcode menu also lists flower tea, ssanghwa herbal tea and a matcha latte, along with plain, ice-cream and injeolmi croffles. Compare the toppings and check the day’s selection before choosing.DiningCode
A snack or a brunch stop?
- For a more substantial order, Diningcode lists waffle, croffle and bagel brunch plates. Ask what comes with the plate that day before treating a plain waffle and a waffle brunch as interchangeable. This lets you decide whether you want a short drink stop or time for food as well.DiningCode
Old-house atmosphere, with a portion caveat
- 말하는사람’s 21 February 2026 review appreciated the antique hanok, a traditional Korean house, and having few other guests around, but found the portions rather small. They had ordered green-tangerine tea and espresso.DiningCode
Find the right hanok
- Korea Tourism Organization identifies The Hanok at 75 Gyedong-gil, Jongno-gu. Use the full address rather than the generic name when navigating, and check current opening times before building breakfast plans around it.Visit Korea
