Fodor's Expert Review Yudong Coffee

This cozy retro space near downtown Seogwipo's historic Lee Jung-seop Street brews a serious cup of coffee, making it a favorite of local aficionados. If you prefer drip coffee, you can choose from three blends, and there are plenty of espresso-based beverages as well, including the house signature, the Songsan-dong Coffee, an especially rich cream latte. The cafe can get a bit crowded, though, so be prepared to wait in line. Founder Jo Yu-dong has won many of Korea's most prestigious coffee awards, a fact he advertises by covering the place's walls and ceiling with plaques and certificates.
