Tips
- Sunday hours differ between sources. Kakao Map shows 07:00–23:00; DiningCode and a September 2026 blog give 09:00–22:00 with the 2nd and 4th Sundays closed; another blog says it closes every Sunday. On a Sunday, call 02-332-6566 before you go. On other days, check a map app before you go.
- The ₩11,000 sundaeguk price comes from a blog post dated 8 September 2026. Kakao Map's menu, last updated 29 June 2026, still shows ₩10,000, which may be out of date.
Hongdae · Places
Isaac Toast Hongdae
이삭토스트 서울홍대점A branch of the Isaac Toast chain, which makes hot breakfast sandwiches. It opens at 08:00 on weekdays and 09:00 on weekends, and suits a light breakfast rather than a full meal. You order at the kiosk by the entrance, and there is seating upstairs on the second floor, including window seats. Takeout is available. One toast sandwich is around ₩4,000–5,000 (corn bacon egg mayo was ₩4,300 in a December 2025 blog).
Jeonjuga Kongnamul Gukbap, Mangwon Station
전주가콩나물국밥전문점 망원역점A kongnamul gukbap restaurant (bean sprout soup with rice) by Mangwon Station, not in central Hongdae. It is listed as open 24 hours; some sources list an afternoon break (14:30–16:00), which does not affect breakfast. Kongnamul gukbap is ₩5,500 and the kimchi version ₩6,500, which is cheap for a breakfast in this area. A raw egg comes with the soup.
Manaolana
마나올라나A brunch cafe on Seongmisan-ro in Yeonnam-dong, open 07:00–18:00 every day with last order at 17:00 (per its DiningCode listing). Apart from the 24-hour gimbap shops, it is the earliest opening in Hongdae and Yeonnam on any day of the week. The menu is breakfast food: a one-plate brunch, sandwiches, Greek yoghurt bowls and a potato soup.
