Sinchon

A lemon-scented coffee break off the main street.

Sinchon’s university streets are busy with places to eat, but a small coffee counter can still make the day. Flick On’s Creme Citron brings lemon oil to cream coffee, with filter options for a simpler order. Find the side street, settle into the little room, and let this be a short, specific detour.

MAKE AN AFTERNOON OF IT

Flick On gives a Sinchon coffee walk a small, personal-feeling destination. Time Out's review describes a white storefront opening into a blue interior and singles out the Creme Citron, a cream coffee finished with lemon oil. Current branch reviews and menu listings add filter coffee to the picture. The appeal is the combination of a carefully considered drink and a distinctive little room, especially when the surrounding university streets feel hectic.

OUR SUGGESTED ORDER

Creme Citron for the lemon-oil cream-coffee signature, or ask which filter coffees are available.

Before you goFind the side street at 40 Yonsei-ro 4-gil; allow time for individually prepared coffee at a small counter.
