Sweet Tooth Satisfaction - cocobruni

cocobruni, a relatively new barista and chocolatier that opened in Gangnam, is a must visit spot for it's open space and modern interior. Known for their decorative chocolates and specialty drinks, it is a short walk from Gangnam station, exit 11 to the right off of the main road. There is also one in Hongdae and a few other tourist spots.

It is the perfect place to visit to chit chat and even solo just to enjoy a cup of coffee and a few sweets which include their wide selection of cake slices, chocolates, and a few baked goodies. With soothing American music constantly playing, this place is one of the few in Gangnam that provide a more relaxing feeling compared to the other busy coffee shops. 

Catering to the more urban and modern taste of locals, desserts average at a price of $5 a slice, chocolates at $2.50 per piece and specialty drinks that range from $3.50-6. There is a set menu with a drink and baked good combo for $7 which is a recommendation for those who are on a budget. In addition to food and beverages, souvenir goods can be purchased which includes planners, notebooks, and cups for a take home gift.


It is definitely a place to stop by during the day or at night. The open window is a great attraction with sunlight during the day, and bright lights of the cafe that attracts anyone passing by. The only problem is the bathroom is far from the building, it is actually located in a regular building so a heads up for that would be great!
