Manhole Coffee
맨홀커피
Open in Google Maps 
A library-meets-speakeasy cafe in Dangsan, full of leather chairs and floor-to-ceiling books.
Order the Manhole Cream signature, espresso topped with milk and cream, plus a homemade scone or cake.
The original Dangsan branch is a reading-cafe concept with dark wood paneling, crystal chandeliers, a working fountain, a British phone booth, and shelves of English-language books that read closer to Kingsman than Harry Potter, despite the comparisons.
A second branch, Manhole Coffee Western, opened nearby in Yeongdeungpo with a vintage American-West theme over three floors.
The original is closed Mondays and Tuesdays.
Address & phone confirmed May 2026
