This is an absolute beautiful place to see! It is kind of in the middle of nowhere, and the parking area is a bit strange, so just keep that in mind if you are planning to visit! You must take off your shoes upon entry, however, they provide slippers for you. We went on a Thursday afternoon, and we were the only ones there! That made the experience even more pleasant! If you are not good at speaking Korean, it might be a little hard to communicate, but the lady that greeted us was very patient and willing to speak English which is very kind! After we finished our coffee, the host even came and talked with us and gave us free Americanos! Overall, this place is worth

I'm a fan of dokkaebi so I traveled to Korea to see some filming locations so glad that I made my time to come here. Met the owner when we visited. She helped ordering us taxi when we finished. Very kind and friendly even to foreigners. Thank you!!!

Such a beautiful cafe ~ a must for any Goblin fan! It looks & feels exactly like in the show & the coffee/drinks were all yummy, plus the service was wonderful. The lady was so nice & offered to take photos for us. *Tip: if you are a Goblin fan, be sure to go check out the upstairs because they shot some of the Chairman Yoo's home scenes up there (which we didn't know before we went, so bonus!)
