Here are a few coffee shops easily accessible from the Guseo (130) subway station in Geumjeong-dong, Busan. I will comment on the places I have visited.
Coffeenie Cafe, the nearest to the Guseo subway station. A clean layout inside, average to decent coffee. I’ve seen another location on a side road in Seomyeon, but definitely not one of the bigger players in the coffee chain game.
Caffe Klavier, near the overpass stairs over a busy highway, Geumjeong-dong. They have a piano! Unfortunately, the rest of the layout of this place is kind of bland. They were, however, great for getting out of the rain one afternoon.Coffee Village. It’s very popular with the local high school, as it’s connected to it by the same building. Cafe Olive. This was open when I first started at my current job. Then it was closed for months, I assumed forever. Then it was renovated and re-opened! Then, it closed two weeks later. Now, it’s open again. Average coffee, another place popular with the high school kids.This is Cafe Anz. And this is Cafe Franz. And, we’re here to pump (clap!) you up! Good folks, pretty decent coffee. It’s an old building so watch your head if you’re trying to head to the bathroom in the back.
