K-Pop Themed Cafes Around The World
Who would have thought cafes could get any better? Don’t get me wrong. I love a good cafe that can serve a refreshing drink and appetizing snacks, but the amount of stress that your bias/ultimate group puts you under cannot be calmed by just any drink from any cafe. K-pop themed cafes would definitely be the way to go in this situation. Here are a few K-pop themed cafes around the world to get you started:
Fandom Cafe in Vienna
Doubling as a K-pop merchandise store, Fandom Cafe offers you more than your average cafe—it offers you a community. Some nights have themes such as Soju Saturday or Lazy Sunday, where they play Korean dramas and movies; but on special occasions, they may host vocal, dance, or even Korean lessons for a small fee (drink included).

Sincerely, Shawols Cafe in the Philippines
This SHINee-themed cafe is every Shawol’s dream.

Yuchi’s Coffee in the Philippines
You don’t need to crave anything, in particular, to visit Yuchi’s Coffee because they have all sorts of drinks and snacks. They put their coffee printer to good use, offering to print any K-pop related image on your cupcake or the foam of almost any drink. It seems like there is always something happening at Yuchi's Coffee because they hold cup holder fan projects on countless K-pop idol birthdays.
