To us, the capital of South Korea kiiiind of feels like the capital of the world. Brimming with karaoke bars, fantastic museums and insanely good food, this city is the kind of place you'll never be bored.
Seoul excels at quite a few things – all-night barbecue joints, skincare galore and boozy bars. It also excels at putting on a good time. For Bar Crybaby, a late-night bar in Gangnam, it's all about good people and good vibes. Rotating DJs spin decks all weekend to a fashion and art crowd who might have stocked up on cool tees at the Noah New York shop down the road or just come in for a strong, fruity drink, post Frieze.
Anju Maeul is a perfect late night dining spot with good service and good vibes. Try the fresh sashimi and grilled fish - you'll thank us later.
This intimate cocktail bar serves Korean spirits, blending local flavours with modern methods. We recommend starting with their version of a Negroni - it's delicious. Bar Cham is guaranteed to give you a night to remember and will leave you wanting more.
Not famous for the food but for the combination of drinking and singing your heart away. For three hours, immerse yourself in a classic Korean karaoke bar. Sip soju or a local beer as you sing your go-to karaoke song, will it be Prince, Dua Lipa or Celine Dion?
Sip on the best selection of craft beer you’ll find in Seoul at Kiwa Taproom. During the day, enjoy the light-filled space, and at night vibe in the ancient glow.
Natural wines rule here at wildduck & canteen, so abandon any plans you had for a classic Nebbiolo. This relaxed neighbourhood spot is ideal for delicious American-style small plates and fresh, funky wines.
