Harvest Namsan Itaewon
The taste of red wine drunk in a round glass surrounded by box flower pots planted with rice straw is mysterious. The term 'elegant and luxurious rural scenery' may seem unfamiliar, but Harvest is exactly that. Even if you forget that you are in the middle of the city, when you look beneath your feet, you will see a garden-like view of Namsan Mountain, resembling the cover of a European travel magazine.
Unlike high-end Italian restaurants that compete with experimental sauces, Harvest Namsan is good at making basic pasta dishes that we know and love, such as aglio olio, carbonara, and seafood tomato pasta. The brunch menu is rumored to be just as delicious as the pasta, but if you make a reservation in the evening when the sunset is setting, you are guaranteed a view, so you won't miss out on a date.

T Bar Yongsan
Kwak Ho-bin, CEO of Tailorable, who created a new wave of tailored suits, has done it again. Following men's clothing, a rooftop bar was opened on the roof of the building of 'Tailorable for women', which opened last March.
The bar, which started out to allow customers looking for Tailorable to enjoy wine on the terrace, began to attract more and more people through word of mouth. When you pass through the luxuriously decorated interior with tiles imported directly from Turkey, open the door on the second floor, and go outside, you will see a small minibar on the left.

Southside Parlor Yongsan
The owners at Southside Parlor know how to make cocktails right. Phill, Robbie, and Johnny from Texas, USA, joined forces and opened the store together in 2013. If you get off on the 4th floor of the building on the way to Gyeongridan and open a door without a sign, you will find yourself in a large space with leather sofas, a dartboard, a hookah, and an 80s arcade game console.
Perhaps because it is a more famous place among foreigners, the atmosphere is exotic. As for imported alcohol, which is becoming more expensive day by day, we use alcohol of a level lower than the highest quality, but we put a lot of care into the ingredients that go together. For example, all the juices here are made from fresh fruit, and the syrups, sodas, and even tonic water (for those who don't drink alcohol, we recommend ginger beer) are made in-house.
Drinkers will be amazed by the variety of cocktails here, from classic to creative. Among the people who visit this place, there are many who like the slightly stronger ‘Juarez Old Fashion’. And Phil's favorite cocktail is 'The Last Word', a mixture of gin, Chartreuse, fresh lime juice, and maraschino liqueur.

Gaja Warehouse Rooftop Bar Itaewon
If you go into the alley behind the Hamilton Hotel, you will find
yourself in a new world. No, when did so many rooftop bars appear? This
place, named Rooftop Bar at a time when there were almost no rooftop bars,
had frankly humble beginnings.
Not only was there little interior decoration, but the door was opened with only plastic cups placed on shabby furniture. But now, this place is by far the hottest place in Itaewon. The scenery of Hamilton's back alleys seen from here is more dramatic than anywhere else. This is a self-service bar where you can take out the beer you want from the refrigerator, pay for it, and drink it.

Playground Rooftop Cafe & Bar Hongdae
Hongdae's noisy Thursday night became more intense with the appearance of
a new bar called 'Playground'. This playground, located right next to
Hongdae Playground, is special as a place where people of various
nationalities meet and interact with each other.
The main customers are foreign exchange students and people in their 20s who are curious about new things. Language exchange meetings and events with unlimited drinks are held here from time to time. Being able to order all menu items in English is another factor that makes foreign customers comfortable. When you feel intoxicated after drinking two or three bottles of Cass, which costs 2,500 won, the place where you can bravely use a foreign language is Playground Rooftop Bada.
