Bar Cham

Well balanced cocktails with unique Korean flavors. Each drink was well thought through and executed. We loved talking with the bartenders as they were very welcoming and kind.

I don't know how to start this review or the main aspects to highlight about Bar Cham. But I'll start with the basics, the superb attention from all the staff! I arrived without a reservation so I had to wait. The staff was super friendly and helped me with the digital reservation you can made in a tablet that they have at the entrance. The wait to enter the establishment was very short. The small establishment with traditional Korean architecture that invites diners to enjoy a cozy atmosphere that is enhanced by the hospitality of the staff makes you feel like you've arrived with old friends. The explanation of the six-course menu is detailed and highly interesting. The starter cocktails are old fashioned, with citrus flavors that relax the palate and prepare the diner to try mirw complexity drinks flavors. The cocktails bases in tea and shiitake mushroom infusions are a sensory experience that play with cocoa aromas, followed by white tea and the aftertaste of vermouth. What can I say about the sides, without a doubt the food competes with some of the Michelin star dishes I've tried in Seoul. The sauce was the star of the cham boiled pork slice (pork belly). I loved that they use local liquors and highlight the richness of Korean culture through their cocktails. But back to the initial point, the most important thing and why I highly recommend Bar Cham is the warmth and attention of all their staff. Thank you for allowing me to taste their drinks and live an unforgettable experience in Seoul. You need order Jeju # 2

Had very yummy drinks that I had to order three to try as much as I can.. they use a lot of the Korean alcohol to make the cocktails.. the service was very friendly n nice.. the bartenders speak great English which makes conversation n explaining the contents of the drinks easy to understand.. will recommend a visit

❤️ Overview: It was my husband and I’s second day in Seoul and we were walking around the Insadong area, when we wanted to give our feet a break from all the walking. We had dinner reservations at 8pm so I wanted to find us a bar to chill at until then. I came across this on Google luckily (since most people use Naver or KakaoMap) and we decided to come here. And man, I’m glad we did! There was a line of people already waiting right before it opened so we waited as well. The atmosphere was great, the bartenders were great, and the drinks were great as well! Our favorite bar we went to while we were in South Korea honestly! ❤️What was ordered: DRINKS: Jeju, One Fine Spring Day, Goodbye Sadness, Wonju - All from their 5.5th Menu which was a mix menu of their top cocktails from the past 5 years. FOOD: Lasagna ❤️Stand outs: One Fine Spring Day and Jeju Cocktail ❤️Would I come back/recommend: Yes - I would definitely come back Yes - I would definitely recommend

We had such a fabulous time here not only because of the unique drinks but also thanks to the amazing service, each and everyone of the staff member, so hospitable & charming, just like its name! In case you didn’t manage to make a reservation like us, suggest to arrive at least 30 mins opening time. We came 15 mins earlier & there was already quite a queue. We got our table almost 1.5 hr later, but overall such a great experience.

The drink experience was absolutely amazing. We ordered several rounds of cocktails, each one better than the last. The only thing that could top the cocktails was the exceptional service. However, be sure to arrive early to avoid a long wait.

Super attentive and friendly bartenders. They went out of their way to assist with my reservation. Every cocktail was served with eloquent narrative and immaculate presentation. Visited here twice during my short stay in Seoul. Highly recommended!

There is a reason they have been on Asia's/World's 50 best for multiple years. Come for the amazing cocktails that are as thoughtful and intentional as they are delicious, stay for hospitality and pleasant atmosphere. Every bartender is knowledgeable, capable and makes sure you're comfortable. I never had to ask for anything, only a new drink! Thanks for a stellar evening! PS the bathroom is super clean has a nice bidet ;)
