One of my go to places near Garosugil in Sinsa is C27. If you love cheesecake as much as I do, you got to check the place out! Even if you don't love the traditional cheesecake, C27 is worth a visit as they have lots of cheesecake variations and I'm sure you can find one that suits your taste.
Coffee And Cake
I've got to say, while I like their cake and coffee, this place is not cheap! One piece of cheesecake is 8,800 KRW, which is around $7.30 USD. That's quite a lot for a small piece of cake, but the Garosugil area in Sinsa isn't known for being cheap.
My personal favorite at C27 is the lemon cheesecake! It's so refreshing and creamy, perfect for summer! But I do also like most of their other options, and I always get excited if they have new seasonal cakes. They have countless options of different cheesecakes, ranging from the classic original cheesecake, to more unusual options such as chocolate mint cheesecake and green tea cheese cake. In any case, I'm sure they got a cheesecake that you'd like to try.
The coffee prices are pretty standard with around 4,000 to 6,000 KRW depending on the kind of coffee you get. They also offer many other kind of drinks such as tea and even wine, but so far I only tried their coffee.
Can't say I found the coffee there to be special, but it isn't bad either. However, I do like the coffee mugs you get when ordering hot coffee. A good coffee mug makes the coffee taste even better.

Instagrammable
C27 is a great cafe to go to if you want to take some nice pictures for instagram. A few times I've been there, there were even professional photo shoots going on inside.
Overall, the coffee shop is very cozy with comfortable seating options and has an industrial vibe with bare cement walls. Make sure to check out each floor as they all look a bit different and have a different vibe. On one floor there even is a full kitchen prop built up, which is perfect for a little picture session!
Another great point about this coffeeshop is that they have an outside seating area which is perfect to enjoy the great weather. I always find it challenging to find nice outside seating in Seoul, so C27 is a great option in case you're looking for a cafe with a terrace. When the weather is great, they usually also open up all window fronts.
