easily passed for non vegans too - Edit
Financiers(salted caramel, ginger, black sesame creme) with tea and vegan vienese coffee(godny bianco) with oat milk all were tasty. Especially ginger and black sesame one.

Good (expensive) cakes, awkward staff - Edit
When we walked in the staff (it was over staffed btw, there were 4 people for a small cafe) were are staring at us and laughing among themselves and it made us feel very awkward. They also didn’t speak English and couldn’t explain the flavors of the cakes to us. That being said, the cakes (though overpriced) we’re delicious. I would not visit again however.

delicious - Edit
the dessert menu isn’t as wide as i thought or so it looked on instagram, but what they do offer is really good.
Read morethe only bad thing i had was the truffle flavored financier, but all the rest were really very good.
it’s a convenient location not too far off of the bicycle path, and it seems very popular. open late and the staff is efficient. it’s not huge, but it has about 5-6 different tables.
the coffee is good, and their signature cream latte is tasty. they also have decaf. everything is vegan, no up charge for soy
will definitely go again

Unusual combinations - Edit
This vegan and eco-friendly cafe makes sweet treats in small scale on location. There are sweet bakery items such as madeleines, financiers and a few cakes. In addition to that, they have a couple of special drinks, e.g. coffee with orange ("Godny Bianco") and matcha latte with strawberries.
Read moreThe food menu changes slightly by season, and features classic flavors as well as uncommon ones, such as garlic financiers, or their current "winter cake" with mugwort cake, mashed sweet potato, raspberry jam and caramelized pecans.
Judging by the appearance, drinks and food generally looked pretty nice. But I have to say that I personally did not enjoy the taste that much. They were way too sweet for me and there is room for improvement flavorwise.
Prices are average for Seoul, with more than 3000 KRW for a tiny financier and about 7000 KRW for a piece of layered cake. The cafe seems to be located in an upscale area in itself.
The cafe is really hard to find if you don't know where you're going. It's on the second floor of the shopping complex of "Castle Park at Magoknaru Station" (마곡나루역 캐슬파크). There are a couple of seats, and the atmosphere is a bit retro but warm. It was surprisingly crowded in the afternoon!

Great hidden spot - Edit
This place is hidden on the 2nd floor of a large complex but worth finding! I was asking what they had and she mention "garlic" pound cake so I jumped to try it. I was there just as they opened so everything was still warm out the oven. The garlic was a surprise. Sweet but garlicky. It was really good. I also had a banana mini pound that was good. Their crumbles and cupcakes look fantastic. Latte was also good. Owner very nice and deserves more business.
