작고 아담한 원거리 한강뷰 가능한 카페입니다. 다소 좁지만 친절하시고 단골손님들도 많아보입니다. 옆 레스토랑과 공간을 같이 쓰네요.

분위기도 너무 좋고 사장님도 너무 친절하십니다. 커피도 저렴하고 맛있어서 자주 방문할 것 같습니다. 다만 테이블이 적어서 방문하셨을때 자리가 없을수도 있습니다. (개인적으로 테이블이 적어서 분위기가 더 좋았습니다. 와인바 같은 느낌.)

두군데 모두 다녀왔습니다. 하지만 정작 사진은 카페 바로 옆 조그만 펍?이었어요 네이버지도에서조차 이름 검색이 안되어 같은곳인지 별도운영인지 잘 모르겠어요 카페는 창가를 보는 좌석이 없고 좁은편입니다. 다만 아늑하고 조용하며 주인분도 친절하네요 제가 추천하는곳은 그 전에 갔던 바로옆가게입니다. 간판이없어검색은 안되지만 뷰가 참 아름다운.. 간단히 맥주한잔이 좋은곳이고요 대신 가격이 착하진 않습니다 음식도 괜찮았고 무엇보다 밖을 볼수있는 좌석배치로 뷰가 좋아요

음식이 굉장히 맛있다. 모든 메뉴가 굉장히 특별하고 맛있다. 동네맛집 이상의 맛집이다. 양이 푸짐하다. 직원은 친절하다. 매장은 매우 작은 편이고 미리 예약이 필요하다. 야경이 굉장히 멋지게 보인다. 독특하게 까페가 식당 바로 옆에 한공간에 붙어있다. 매장 분위기도 너무 좋다. 주차공간은 전혀없고 매장 앞에 불법주차를 해야한다.

본동 신동아 리버파크 아파트& 건영아파트 사잇길에서 장승배기 지하철역으로 가는중에 있는 언덕위 까페. 해질녘에 가면 의도치않게 너무나 예쁜 뷰를 볼 수 있고, 카페 내부도 테이블은 3~4개 뿐이지만 갬성을 느낄수 있다. 커피맛도 수준급.(스타벅스보다는 훨씬 나음) 가격대는 라떼기준 4000원초반. 바로옆에 있는 레스토랑은 테이블은 많아야 6팀 받을수 있을정도로 협소하고, 주차도 불편하지만 일단 매장에 방문하면 친절함+ 신경쓴 인테리어및 분위기+ 야경뷰+ 친절함+ 가장 중요한 음식도 매우 맛있음. 다만 가격대는 좀 있음. 그럼에도 불구하고 강추함.

카페는 자리가 많진 않고 옆에 같이붙어있는 식당이 분위기가 좋네요

Definitely my favorite café in Seoul! Small, quiet, cozy, with many books and a great view of the city. Perfect if you don't like commercial places filled with too many people. What's more, the restaurant next door - Tom's Kitchen - (they're part of the same company) has real Italian-taste focaccia, my favourite is the Prosciutto & Mozzarella one. As an Italian, I highly recommend to check it out!
