  In our 4 days in Seoul, this is the one place that we've come every single day. It lives to the hype. The lines are only a few minutes long. It's definitely a tourist trap but a worthy one. The breads are so buttery, with a crispy bottom. It is to die for. A must stop when in Seoul

  Sooooooo good! Melt in your mouth perfectly decadent combo of texture, sweet & salty with loads of yummy butter. Good coffee too-came twice because it was so good. Lines can be long, but persevere-it’s worth it

  Believe the hype - but come early. I lined up at 8:45am and I was the first person there (yes, a little crazy) but it was my last day in Seoul and I needed to make sure that I tried the salt bread before heading home. It did not disappoint. So after snagging 4 buns (you can only buy 4 or more), I went to the other line and grabbed an orange juice (complete with an actual orange to eat). I caught a seat in the shade and enjoyed two buns. Buttery goodness!

  The sea salt bread tasted as good as its smell. We were draw towards by the shop by the freshly baked breads. Only 1 drawback was the breads was slightly oily due to the butter use, i suppose. Expected to queue but their services was fast and friendly.

  Their salt bread is absolutely amazing—KRW 12,000 for a pack of four, and worth every bit! The texture is incredibly soft and fluffy, almost like a warm, buttery blanket. It’s not a croissant, but a perfectly balanced mix of saltiness and richness that melts in your mouth. Despite the constant queue, the wait is well worth it. Ordering is done through a kiosk, and while the pickup line can be long, it moves quickly. The service is efficient—we got our fresh, hot package within just a couple of minutes.
