My little coffee shop-06
I’m not such a big fan of franchise coffee shops. Most of the time, they have similar looks but lack identity in their interior. However, one of my favorite coffee shops in Nowon, which has now closed, was a franchise, its Vienna coffee house.


Branch in Seongsu.
I felt sad when I noticed that the Nowon branch had closed. However, luckily, some of their branches are still open. The branch I selected is located near Seoul Forest Metro Station, between exits 1 and 2. I was a little worried that the interior might be different from what I expected because this branch was nestled among skyscrapers. However, my worries were dispelled once I opened the door.

Culture from Austria
Vienna Coffee House originates from Austria. Specifically, they aim to embody its coffee culture, designated as UNESCO intangible heritage. This culture has inspired prominent figures from the Habsburg Royal families to composer Mozart, transcending fields. The coffee house was not merely a place for drinking coffee but also for socializing. The founder of Korea Vienna Coffee House seeks to embody this concept, aiming to inspire customers.

It features a signature red color scheme, evident from the entrance with its distinctive frame color. The interior transports visitors to 17C Austria, with brick-clad pillars and displayed violins. Shelves crafted from pipes evoke a steam punk sci-fi vibe, maintaining an antique ambiance despite the absence of marble tables.



Special menu
Their menu sets them apart from other coffee shops, featuring Austrian specialties like Sachertorte and Vienna coffee, distinct from the usual latte. Named after historical Austrians, offerings like the Maria Theresia and Mozart add to the unique experience. With a wide selection of coffee, beverages, desserts, and even coffee with alcohol, it’s a spacious spot perfect for work or conversation. Enjoy their delicious coffee if you stumble upon a branch.
