Go out the Kimchi Pot gate Turn right Cross the street in the underground crosswalk Come out on the right hand side Walk a little ways and you will see Standing Coffee on your left hand side

***New location as of 5/25/1013 - information at bottom of post.*** I am just going to claim it. Rest With Coffee & Books is my hands down FAVORITE café I have been to so far. I loved EVERYTHING it had to offer. Books, internet service, a computer for people to use, comfy chairs, FREE bread and coffee, nice background music, waffles, coffee drinks of all kinds, gelato and of course, Dr. Fish to chew the nasty off your feet. The main room:  Need a book? They have bookshelves full. They were all in Korean, so if you can't read Korean then bring your own book.  Self bar. Gotta love it.  At the self bar you can have all the free bread and coffee you can eat and drink. As long as you order 1 item from the menu. They even have toaster ovens to toast your bread AND They give you butter and jam when you place an order at the counter.  Sampling of the free bread: It taste better than it looks.  Girl said the hot chocolate is THE BEST she has EVER HAD. In fact it was so good that she ordered a second one. She told me that she wishes she could make hot chocolate this good. Give her time and I'm sure she will.  She is just so cute I couldn't help snapping a ton of pictures of her.  Don't worry, I'm not posting all the photos I took, only a few of my favorites.  She really is this sweet too. She is a great daughter and sister to her brothers. Plus she has an amazing heart.  I tried something new, a cinnamon honey latte. It was very YUM.  I'm not sure if I have told you this or not, but Koreans are WILD about waffles. Just not for breakfast - they don't want them for breakfast. They only want them for dessert.  When girl and I were finished warming our souls and filling our bellies we were ready to dip our feet in a tank of little fishies to get our 'poor mans' pedicure.  First the lady comes over and washes your feet off.  And then it is time to dip your feet!  Ahhh, sweet little fishies. This is no big thang. We have done this before. It tickles, but it is a good tickle.  And then....we decided to switch tanks. OH MY GOODNESS. I have NEVER seen Dr. Fish this BIG! And ready...with mouths OPEN WIDE!  Sticking my heel in.  Oh my goodness. This TICKLES and FREAKS me out a bit! But I think I can do it....  ...I only lasted for a little while before I had to take a breather.... I mean check them out. Savages. I'm kind of afraid they will take off a toe. Girl doesn't want to have anything to do with this tank.  Going in again. This time all the way.  OH MY GOSH...  This is really FREAKY!! AND TICKLISH!  I can't take it much longer!!  Feet out. Relaxing.  Oh my gosh ~ that was crazy fun! UPDATE as of 5/25/2013 NEW LOCATION:  ***I went to the new location. It is not nearly as nice as the old location and the big fish are gone. They only have the little fish. They still have food - sandwiches, coffee, pastries and beer. Still a fun girls day out. :o)*** We spent about 18,000 won on a latte, a hot chocolate, a chocolate waffle and 2 doctor fish. There hours are 10AM-midnight everyday. Credit cards are accepted. I hope you have as much fun as Girl and I. I think this would be an awesome place to have a date night. |

AuthorHi, I'm Trish, the writer, creator and photographer of this blog. I started this blog for 2 reasons, 1 - When I found out we were moving to Korea back in 2008 I was a little freaked out and started scouring the internet for information on Korea. At that time there wasn't much out there so I am doing my part in helping families across the world not be so freaked out when it comes time to move to Korea. The 2nd reason I started this blog was to help stay connected to family members back in the states. Today it is so much more that. Are you moving to Korea? Do you have questions, concerns? Are you freaking out? Freak out no further - click the button to ask a question. I'll do my best to answer open and honestly.
