I’ve deeply recommended Deep dark blended (10/10). It was balanced sour and bitter. I came here because this is a coffee roaster so this place is smell so good. The shop is nearby exit 1 of Mangwon market
What at first glance appears to be a bottom feeder's paradise, this reverse iceberg inspired revelation-by-revelation patron space allows its little fishies to spelunk unchartered corners level-to-level. Following the predictable trend of pastel dehydrated flowers in lineated window outlooks, this little piece of carmalized cream a top the foundational set of plump naturally sweetened pumpkin pie provides a pleasure packed jazz hand waving in the symbolic heart. Flatwhite is Jam.
They grind and roast their own coffee beans, amazing place and cozy. Love it.
Amazing coffee and fantastic staff. I had a great conversation with the owner, who has extensive experience in coffee from around the world, including some of the top cafes in Melbourne, Australia. As a coffee enthusiast from Sydney, I would rate this place 10/10.
Good specialty coffee shop. Many beans can be selected. A lot of cozy seats in 2nd &3rd floor.
Deep Blue Lake — their name truly reflects the service they provide. Their coffee brought me warmth and delight, in a breeze-like place that felt just like home. That doesn’t mean they’re only quiet; they’re also unique. From the entrance, their funkiness is clear, with quirky illustrations combining coffee and the Chinese zodiac. I had a wonderful time there and will definitely visit again!
Excellent cafe with artisan coffee, inviting atmosphere and decent price.
Quality specialty coffee roasting house. Visited once, after having ordered several packs of beans. 3-4 Baristas are hand picking the bad beans from the freshly roasted batch. High quality roasting(light), with very reasonable price. Not many seats inside, and no filtered coffee is serving.
