Cafe Layered Yeonnam
A scone-focused bakery in a warm London-meets-Paris townhouse.
The plain scone with strawberry jam is the entry point, but the spring onion cream cheese scone and the Victoria sponge are what regulars come back for. Three floors of antique-furnished rooms in Yeonnam-dong, with sunlit window seats on the upper levels and a small terrace. The Yeonnam location is the original, and the most atmospheric. Layered also has branches in Bukchon and inside The Hyundai Seoul department store, but the townhouse here is the destination one.
