Honest Review of 'Sodol-En,' a Sentimental Cafe Full of Ocean Vibes in Jumunjin

🌊 First Impressions & Atmosphere As you step into Sodol-En in Jumunjin, the first thing that catches your eye is the refreshing ocean view framed by large glass windows. From the first floor to the second, every seat faces the sea, ensuring that the blue waves are always within sight. It's the perfect healing spot for days when you want to quietly gaze at the water. ☕ Menu & Taste Coffee: The Americano, with its mild acidity and nutty flavor, is easy to enjoy without being overwhelming. The signature 'Sodol Latte,' featuring black sesame cream, is sweet and smooth. Bakery: The croffle topped with gelato was particularly memorable. The combination of crispy exterior and moist interior made it a dessert to remember. However, the selection is somewhat limited, which might feel restrictive depending on your preferences. 🪑 Seating Arrangement & Scenery On the first floor, you feel as though you're directly facing the sea through the glass windows. The second floor offers a more expansive view, and if you snag a window seat, you'll be treated to a breathtaking panorama where the sea meets the sky. During peak times, securing a seat is essential, so an 'open-run strategy' right after opening is highly recommended. 🚗 Accessibility & Notes While there is a free parking lot, its small size can lead to parking competition on weekends. The kiosk ordering system is convenient, and the second floor is a great spot for taking aesthetic photos, though it can be challenging to find a seat due to its popularity. 🧭 Overall Impression Sodol-En combines a wide-open ocean view, a tranquil atmosphere, and sentimental desserts into one cohesive experience. As you sip coffee and enjoy desserts while gazing at the sea, the pace and noise of daily life seem to fade away. The sentiment that "the view alone is worth it" is no exaggeration. Highly recommended for those seeking a peaceful and healing moment in Jumunjin.
