[2025 Seoul Restaurant] Travel Guide for Rafre Fruit (Updated Jul)

#seoulspots Located in the vibrant Yeonnam-dong neighborhood near Hongdae, Rafre Fruit is a dessert café that celebrates Korea’s seasonal fruits in all their glory—strawberries in winter, mangoes in summer, shine muscat in early autumn. I visited during peak strawberry season, and the entire display counter was a burst of red—chiffon cakes, cream sandwiches, tarts, and shaved ice all generously topped with fresh berries. The interior is soft, bright, and inviting—white walls, pastel touches, and clean wood accents that let the colorful fruit desserts take center stage. I ordered the strawberry shortcake and a fresh strawberry latte. The cake was light and fluffy, with layers of whipped cream and sweet-tart berries that tasted like spring. The latte was made with real puréed strawberries—fruity, milky, and refreshing without being too sweet. Rafre’s menu changes with the seasons, so repeat visits always feel new. In summer, mango bingsu and mango chiffon dominate; in autumn, muscat tarts and fig pastries take over. The quality is consistently high, and each dessert feels handcrafted and photo-ready.

rafre fruit is a cafe that serves revolutionary, delicious fruit sweets 🍓 This coming season is all about sweets made with peaches and mangoes 🤍 Among them, the one I want you to try is the mango bingsu (shaved ice) It's a really fluffy, not too cold milk-based shaved ice topped with plenty of mango! The mango is apparently the same as the mango bingsu used in a certain luxury hotel. . But it's about half the price! It's a high-end shaved ice compared to the price range of regular shaved ice, but it was worth the money and delicious, and it was just right for two people to share♡ The lemonade was also refreshing and delicious🍋 It was so cold that it was a little cold after we left the store, and I thought it was perfect for summer🥹🥹 🥭Rafre Fruit 📍685-495 Seongsu-dong 1-ga, Seongdong-gu, Seoul ⏰13:00-19:00 (Until 19:30 on Fridays/Until 20:30 on Saturdays and Sundays) Use this as a reference for your next trip to Korea💭🇰🇷 #GirlsTripToKorea #Korea #InformationAboutKorea #TravelInformationAboutKorea #AbsolutelyFreeTrip

rafre fruit A shop that serves 🍰 filled with plenty of seasonal fruits. They have stores in Seongsu and Seochon, but this time I went to the one in Seochon. After securing a seat on the second floor, I went back to the first floor to order. It seems that the 🍰 can be shared (it's big!), but drinks are limited to one order per person. This time, it was full of American cherries 🍒 🕰️Business hours 12:30~ 📍Location: 108 Ongni-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul #Seoul #SeoulCafe #SeoulSweets #🍰 #seoul #rafre

Rafre fruit A coffee shop next to Seoul Forest Park The most recommended signature is the strawberry mille-feuille cake The cream in the strawberry cake is sweet but not greasy and it’s really delicious! We also ordered strawberry milk Strawberry milk contains real fresh strawberries, strawberry juice and fresh milk. It tastes surprisingly refreshing and delicious! We also ordered a chocolate strawberry cake roll The cream inside is as delicious as the cake! The strawberries are very fresh and sweet! Although the price of this store is not cheap, it is still recommended. Moreover, most of the people in the store are Koreans and there are not many tourists! There are some small shops next to the cake shop where you can go shopping. It is highly recommended! #SeoulItinerary #Cake #StrawberryCake #SeoulCoffee

Found Rafre Fruit on IG and knew I had to try their strawberry cakes 🍰. The cake symmetry is crazy and aside from the delicious cream, they had a generous portions of korean strawberries. 
If you’re looking at trying their cakes, just note that they’ve a drink per person policy. 
Drinks wise their latte was mid (would not reco), but their hot choco was not too bad and topped with lots of cocoa powder.

This is a cafe that I have bookmarked for a long time! ! The main feature is to provide different fruit cakes and ice creams according to the season October was the season for figs. Lots of fig desserts for you to choose from In addition to fruits, there are other products commonly found in coffee shops Highly recommend the smoothie series! !

There are more locals?? A fruit cafe in the Seongsu area, a very popular spot in Korea♡ I went to a cafe that is very popular on SNS, so I'll report on it🩵 RAFRE FRUIT Cafe🍰 in the Seongsu area, which is a hot spot in Korea right now. It's a cafe that uses a lot of fruit, and since it's hot season, the waiting time is long, and there are many customers who are looking for shaved ice, so you have to wait quite a while🙇♀️ When I went to wait around 4pm on a weekday, 25 groups were already waiting🤣 It's an electronic type, so you enter the waiting time and then I just hung around until I got close^ ^ However, since it's shaved ice, many people finish eating and leave immediately I didn't wait as long as I thought, but I entered the store around 5:30pm Some of the menu items were already sold out😭 They didn't have the watermelon juice🍉 that I wanted to drink, but it was no problem because my goal was to eat mango bingsu! It came out in less than 10 minutes after I ordered 💛 The sweet mango used was filled with milk ice, and you could change the flavor with condensed milk or red beans, so you never get bored 🤍🫧 There was a small plate of mango samples, and it said to eat that first before eating the bingsu ♪♪ The sweet and big mango and milk ice were irresistibly delicious, and it was hot, so I ate it all up ♡ There are many menus such as cakes, parfaits, ice cream, and drinks using seasonal fruits, so please go and try them 😋❣️ 🏠Store: RAFRE FRUIT 📍Location: Seongsu-dong 1-ga, Seongdong-gu, Seoul 685-495 Line 2💚 Exit 8 of Ttukseom Station is nearby 10-15 minutes from Seongsu Station and Seoul Forest Station!! 🕰️Business hours: Weekdays 13:00-19:00 Weekends 13:00-20:00 💰Price: Mango Bingsu 49.5 (about 5,300 yen) Prices vary depending on the day, so they are current prices🙇♀️ #KoreaTrip#Korea #Cafe #ShavedIce #KoreaTourism #KoreaCafeTour #KoreaInformation #Korea

It's a bit pricey at 49,000w, but it was topped with a mountain of mango and was incredibly delicious. The portion is too large for one person to finish, so I recommend sharing it between two people. The shop opens at 1pm, so if you enter as soon as it opens, you can get in without having to queue. While we were eating and drinking, customers kept coming in one after the other, so I think it's a popular shop with locals too. I walked there from Soulsp Station, and it's not too far to walk.
