From its caffeinated selection of beverages and wall-lined artwork to its cute merchandise and table coasters, Cafe Teteum is a growling good time. The location consists of two floors and along with bear-inspired beverages and merch, it also sells tasty food. After you&#8217;ve got your filling of edible goods, take advantage of any number of selfie-ready spots throughout the cafe.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/teteum.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:teteum.com;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">teteum.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>15 Donggyo-ro 36-gil, Mapo-gu, Seoul, South Korea<\/p>\n<h2>The Amoene Cafe (Upside Down House-Themed)<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"caas-figure\">\n<div class=\"caas-figure-with-pb\" style=\"max-height: 438px\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"caas-img-container caas-img-lightbox caas-img-loader\" style=\"padding-bottom:56%\" data-lightbox-src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/tY8tsbwds__XEnOEpWd2dQ--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTE1NjA7aD04NzY-\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/tasting_table_543\/0a72be864fb92c97f71b90817f3d8a15\"><span class=\"caas-img-wrapper\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"caas-img caas-lazy has-preview\" alt=\"The Amoene Cafe\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/K1z7ztRPcI162tw14iSweQ--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTUzOQ--\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/tasting_table_543\/0a72be864fb92c97f71b90817f3d8a15\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The Amoene Cafe\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/K1z7ztRPcI162tw14iSweQ--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTUzOQ--\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/tasting_table_543\/0a72be864fb92c97f71b90817f3d8a15\" class=\"caas-img\"\/><button class=\"link caas-lightbox\" aria-label=\"View larger image\" data-ylk=\"sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;elm:expand;itc:1\"><span class=\"openArrows icon\"><svg width=\"22\" height=\"22\" viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\"><path d=\"M12.372 0.92C12.372 0.414 12.782 0.004 13.287 0.004L21 0L20.996 7.712C20.996 8.217 20.586 8.628 20.08 8.628C19.574 8.628 19.164 8.217 19.164 7.712V3.183L12.337 10.011L10.988 8.663L17.816 1.835H13.287C12.782 1.835 12.372 1.425 12.372 0.92ZM1.835 17.816L8.663 10.988L10.012 12.337L3.183 19.164H7.712C8.218 19.164 8.627 19.574 8.627 20.08C8.627 20.586 8.218 20.995 7.712 20.995L0 21L0.004 13.287C0.004 12.782 0.414 12.372 0.92 12.372C1.425 12.372 1.835 12.782 1.835 13.287V17.816Z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><figcaption class=\"caption-collapse\">The Amoene Cafe &#8211; \u0e40\u0e2d\u0e30\u0e2d\u0e30\u0e01\u0e47\u0e40\u0e01\u0e32\u0e2b\u0e25\u0e35\/Facebook<\/figcaption><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>One themed cafe that&#8217;s sure to turn your frown upside down is The Amoene Cafe.

The presentation of the desserts is stunning and looks closer to prop food. Wherever you sit, nature is nearby. For example, an inviting bamboo forest greets you at the entrance.

Visiting the small establishment is like being a guest of Heo Jun as it still retains much of the original 1920s aesthetic. The cafe still contains furniture from China&#8217;s Song Dynasty. World War II artifacts pepper the interior design, adding to the overall historical feel. Even the drip coffee-making method used there is old world. Directly adjacent is the Hyemindang bakery which serves complimentary desserts in a similarly traditional setting.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/smartstore.naver.com\/coffeehanyakbang\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:smartstore.naver.com\/coffeehanyakbang;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">smartstore.naver.com\/coffeehanyakbang<\/a><\/p>\n<p>16-6 Samil-daero 12-gil, Jung-gu, Seoul, South Korea<\/p>\n<p>Read the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tastingtable.com\/1508388\/unique-theme-cafes-seoul-south-korea\/?zsource=yahoo\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:original article on Tasting Table;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">original article on Tasting Table<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/lifestyle\/25-unique-themed-cafes-seoul-121500047.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Enjoying a great meal is only part of dining out, the ambiance, social aspect, and service play a big role as well.<br \/><button class=\"read-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/world\/25-unique-themed-cafes-in-seoul-south-korea\/15\/02\/2024\/\">Read More &rsaquo;<\/a><\/button><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_seopress_titles_title":"","_seopress_titles_desc":"","_seopress_robots_index":"","_seopress_robots_follow":"","_seopress_robots_imageindex":"","_seopress_robots_snippet":"","_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_robots_breadcrumbs":"","_seopress_robots_freeze_modified_date":"","_seopress_robots_custom_modified_date":"","_seopress_robots_canonical":"","_seopress_social_fb_title":"","_seopress_social_fb_desc":"","_seopress_social_fb_img":"","_seopress_social_fb_img_attachment_id":0,"_seopress_social_fb_img_width":0,"_seopress_social_fb_img_height":0,"_seopress_social_twitter_title":"","_seopress_social_twitter_desc":"","_seopress_social_twitter_img":"","_seopress_social_twitter_img_attachment_id":0,"_seopress_social_twitter_img_width":0,"_seopress_social_twitter_img_height":0,"_seopress_redirections_value":"","_seopress_redirections_enabled":"","_seopress_redirections_enabled_regex":"","_seopress_redirections_logged_status":"","_seopress_redirections_param":"","_seopress_redirections_type":0,"_seopress_analysis_target_kw":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-20200","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-world"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20200","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20200"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20200\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20200"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20200"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20200"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
