Bimbom Cafe in Seoul Forest

Bimbom Cafe is a popular brunch cafe and restaurant located on the edge of Seoul Forest Park. This cafe is known for its all day brunch menu, dessert, and coffee. According to reviews, they are one of the best brunch places in Seoul, with a large patio for larger parties, lots of natural light, and a great atmosphere.

Although the price could be considered a bit high, ranging from 16,000 won to 20,000 won per dish, Bimbom is considered well worth it for many who are looking to treat themselves to a more luxurious looking (and tasting) brunch. We recommend trying the aesthetic, three-tiered platter, brunch tasting menu. This signature menu of the cafe is perfect for trying some of Bimbom’s most popular dishes and for taking great brunch photos.

After the closure of their Yongsan-gu branch in the fall of 2020, Bimbom Cafe is now serving brunch at their sole location in Seoul Forest.
