OEAT (오잇) (How to go, what to expect) - Aespa Karina and Giselle went here!

There is a trendy place people have been talking about lately in the Yongsan district and it’s Haebangchon. I’ve read about this area and came across a croffle cafe within the area. I love croffles 😭.

Coming from Bukhansan area, we had 3 bus changes before arriving at the place.

My advice is to choose a transit option with Bosung girls’ middle & high school as the end stop.

The road in Haebangchon is very steep so it’s hard to walk up as well as going down (need to be careful or you’ll end up rolling down).

This was our view immediately getting off at Bosung girls’ middle & high school.

I followed Naver Maps from here and wasn’t able to properly take photos since I was a bit confused so I took some screenshots from Naver Maps to help!

view as we were heading down! the crossroads were a bit confusing so let me explain through screenshots!

your supposed view as soon as you get off the stop (this is where we walked down based on previous photo)

at the end there will be a crossroad, you should head towards the street with 7-eleven on the right

from here you just need walk a few meters to reach OEAT!

The building looks like this!

There are 4 floors, if you’re going with someone, I would advise the group to split. One group places orders while the other group looks for a spot on the rooftop, just in case you would like to have your croffles with a view.

too good to not order… so this is what I got 😄

also got an iced americano, my mom got an espresso and my dad got an iced tea since he didn’t want to take any more caffeine for the day

My mom was the one who looked for seats on the rooftop while my dad and I placed orders. We were instructed to come back to the first floor after 10 minutes for our order!

We went up to leave our stuff while waiting which turned out to be a good call because the stairs heading up are a bit challenging especially if you are about to carry your order!

It took two people to carry an order of ice cream croffle and three drinks while going up the rooftop.

the second and third floor got different vibes!

Was a little bit hesitant to take a photo of how the rooftop looked like since it was packed with people at that time so I am sharing a screenshot from a post by OEAT on Instagram!

My mom found our seat on the right-most table from the photo above!

This was our view 🥹.

please ignore the wires, the view of the Namsan Tower was pretty for me!

After 10 minutes, my dad and I went down to get our orders. I love that they put drinks inside this holder so that it’s easier to carry!

While writing this post, I only figured out that Aespa Karina and Giselle went here too! I think they went to the 2nd floor (the one I posted here!) They posted it on their Instagram!

Check out – Karina’s Instagram post, Giselle’s Instagram post.

After having our croffles, we decided to walk around Haebangchon Sinheung Market!

the place is literally a building away from OEAT

it’s an area full of small restaurants, bars, and small shops! 10/10 would think this place would be so fun at night

all photos were taken using an iPhone 13 Pro Max / Fujifilm X-T20 18-55 mm

Needless to say, I’d highly recommend OEAT if you’re looking for some good croffles! I’m positive I’ll be coming back here since there’s a restaurant in the area that I want to try 😋.
