Teobangnae 

Tucked away in a basement near Chung-Ang University, Teobangnae has drawn generations of students since opening in 1983. Comfy booth seating and classical music set the mood, stimulating conversation or encouraging you to pull out a good book. Be sure to check out the customer graffiti that covers the wallpaper, wood panelling and hanging lampshades. Among the many options, consider an alcoholic drink like the café Alexander or their classic Vienna coffee.
