Cafe Oscar is on the second floor. I come through this neighborhood all the time, yet I had to learn about this place from somewhere else. Second-floor spots really are hard to stumble onto..

Oscar Coffee Booth

This kind of place..

Menu

The menu is built around coffee, with desserts like pudding and Basque cheesecake.

Interior

Floor-to-ceiling windows, so the view is nice.

Interior

Very stylish.

Cheesecake

It was delicious..

Drinks and cheesecake

Well.. they really make these well.. With this kind of atmosphere and this kind of flavor, second floor or not, you have to go..

Apple mango ade

This was good too.

Cafe latte

It’s not just that the place looks great; as far as I know the owner is a former actor. I suppose that’s part of why it’s so popular.

Ice cream

They brought this out on the house.. This was really tasty too. Turns out Hongdae has a fun spot like this.

Torikizoku

They’ve started popping up in Hongdae one or two at a time. Not sure the prices are all that cheap, though..

Yomenya Goemon

This one must be pretty popular, since a few more branches have been opening.

Clock tower

No idea when Hongdae got a clock tower..
