Gongneung

공릉동

Jazz-minded roasting along the old railway.

Gongneung’s former rail line gives a coffee outing an easy walking thread. Blue Miles is the upstairs pause, with house blends named for Miles Davis and Chet Baker and a roasting program to explore. Ask about the differences between the beans, then return to the green corridor for the rest of the afternoon.

Blue Miles gives Gongneung’s railway-park walk a specialty-roasting destination with a clear personal identity. A January 2026 feature describes the musician-owner’s jazz connection and house blends named for Miles Davis and Chet Baker, with different flavor profiles to explore. Coffee roasting and retail beans are central to the business. The upstairs windows overlook neighborhood greenery, making it an inviting place to pause before following the former tracks through the surrounding streets.

OUR SUGGESTED ORDER

Compare the listed Miles Davis and Chet Baker blends by their tasting notes; choose Chet Baker if you prefer a fruitier profile.

Before you goThe café is on the second floor beside the Gyeongchun Line Forest Park corridor, reached from Gongneung Station.
