The restaurant opened in 2020 and revamped its menu in February 2025, allowing customers to enjoy homemade natural makgeolli by the glass. The dishes are primarily creative, featuring homemade fermented seasonings such as miso. Many customers also come to enjoy the seasonal makgeolli, which are made with fruit and other ingredients. Owner Son Dae-young is a former space designer, and his sense of style can be seen in the interior, which combines a variety of wood materials.

A selection of natural makgeolli made with secondary ingredients
Located in Sangsu, next to Hongdae, where a steady stream of restaurants with a relaxed atmosphere are opening, this restaurant is scheduled to open in February 2023. Owner Lee Woo-gon, who previously ran a wine bar, collaborated with a makgeolli brewery in Korea to produce and serve an original brand using secondary ingredients. It is paired with dishes with distinct flavor profiles, and is well-received by first-time customers as it pairs well with the robust flavor of makgeolli.

Fresh makgeolli poured from the tap
Opened in 2023 by three makgeolli-loving people in their 20s who were friends from school days, the restaurant offers five types of freshly made makgeolli on tap, which are poured into glasses with ice for a perfect concentration. The ordering process is unique: first, you answer a makgeolli-related questionnaire, and then you're served a welcome drink. The food is mainly Asian, with the spicy spare ribs stew being particularly popular.
Cheongmyeon Makgeolli, which was home-brewed based on a survey of 1,000 customers, is also available on tap.
