Café Daenerys: A Café in South Korea with a beautiful view of the Han River

There are many cafes in Seoul, but this one will transport you to the quaint villages of Europe.

Create lasting moments at Café Daenerys, a picturesque establishment situated on the banks of the Han River. Located in Namyangju-si, 1.5 hours away from Seoul, Cafe Daenerys is arguably the most popular cafe in the city. Stunning views and beautifully decorated, this cafe is always full house.

Its interior and exterior are styled after European homes, with statues, chandeliers, and climbing vines that provide colour to the structure. It doesn’t feel like Korea when you’re here!

A breathtaking view of the Han River and mountain range right infront of the cafe will make you feel at peace. The cafe’s tranquilly and ambience, as well as the scenery, will make you feel as if time has stopped. Enjoy a cup of coffee, and pastries from the cafe while taking in the view.

Pro tip: sit on the third level for a great window view and instagrammable spot!

The cafe’s menu is a combination of Asian and Western cuisine. Featuring mains like Avocado Cream Pasta, Gochujang Pasta, and Anchovy Pasta. Regular coffees like lattes, americanos, and dalgonas are available, but they also have more adventurous options like peanut butter coffee and cream cheese coffee.

The bakery’s bread and pastries come highly recommended by many patrons, which means they get sold out fast, so try your best to visit early.

Depending on the season you go, the building will look different. The climbing vines change with seasons, turning bright green during summer and spring, a beautiful red, orange, and yellow during autumn, and leafless during winter.
