Night out in Hongdae

These are my favourite pub/bars/clubs in Hongdae. I like small, cozy bars or somewhere I can listen to good music. Based on my personal taste but hope you'll like them too!
Small but cozy atmosphere with unique interior designed cafe/bar. They have variety of drink menu with special seasonal drinks. I highly recommend this place if you're looking to delicious cocktails with good music.

Small Japanese Izakaya with delicious food. The food is more likely Tapas style, some pesco/vegetarian options such as eggplant dishes and natto with tofu. They come in small plates satisfying for one or two people. Best for no more than three people as the place is tiny and could get quite busy especially on weekend nights. Located very close to the apartment, less than 10 mins walk right next to the park.

This is my best bar/cafe place in Hongdae area. Near Sangsu station, they have artsy interior with hipster vibe. It's also a cafe you can get a coffee/tea/small food. They have live music band on every weekends, it is very nice to sit down and have a coffee at the balcony area or seeing the live band playing music on the basement floor from the top.
