Anam Bar Recommendations

As an exchange student to Korea University,  I noticed that there is a lack of recommendations for restaurants in the Anam area. So then, what’s a hungry KU student gonna choose? Simply put, for the first few days I was in Korea I lived off of GS25 Kimbap. Not too bad, but the sooner you get to know all the delicious food Anam has to offer, the better.

So here’s my list of some of the best restaurants, cafes, and bars you’ll find in Anam! The neighborhood is constantly changing, just like the rest of Korea, so if you find this blog post and come to find that the restaurant no longer exists, first let me know! I love knowing what has changed and replaced the old, second Anam is missing out these places were a go to!

Bars

TLC: Y’all, don’t sleep on TLC if you like to drink and appreciate a good cocktail! This bar isn’t necessarily tiny, they just don’t have that many tables. So often times, if you will be drinking on the weekends get here early and save a table! Let’s talk atmosphere, this bar is pretty casual and slightly romantic. It’s very low-lit and the main source of light comes from a Beyonce concert that is always on re-run? It’s not a rowdy bar either, where you play Korean drinking games, so keep that in mind. The best thing about this bar is the happy hour special! You can get 3 big and STRONG cocktails for only 10,000won or $10. My favorites, Kakaotalk, Cuba Libre, and Oppa! Don’t Go Home (yes that was the drinks name lol)
