The Hideout Café – Cool New Chill Out Place

Address: 957, Donghae-ro, Donghae-myeon, Goseong-gun, Gyeongnam

The Hideout is true to its name with creative hidden spaces to chill out in with a beautiful coastal view and even a dog yard.

I actually noticed this place getting built over a year ago, as construction began in 2020 and I drive by here all the time. The Hideout opened in May 2022, so it’s really cool to see how it turned out after all that time.

There are two separate but adjacent buildings along the coast.

The mountain there is Georyusan, my favorite to hike in Goseong.

One of the buildings makes creative use of mirrors in a space above the ground.

It makes you kind of unsure of what’s around the corner. And it kind of lets you slip into a world of your own.

You can sit and face the sea, and you can walk out on a balcony.

The other building is nice too.

At the end is a single tree surrounded by water.

Following the stone path leads to a comfy sofa facing the sea. It doesn’t get much better than that.

There a bunch of comfy places to have a seat and enjoy a great view.

At the other end of The Hideout Café is the dog park. Bamboo grows along the side.

Finally there is the rooftop. Stairs along a wall of rocks lead up there.

The row of evergreens provide additional privacy.

    1. Hello! Getting to Goseong itself is easy by bus (there is no train station). But if you are asking about reaching The Hideout Cafe by public transport, that might be tricky for a foreigner. The easiest way would be taking a taxi from Goseong bus terminal or town center (but you'd need a plan to get back). But there is a small bus you can catch right next to the 장수 약국 pharmacy in Goseong town center towards 당동 and you could get off 10 minutes down the road from The Hideout. The particular bus only runs every 30 mins I believe.
