Bar Cham

Bar Cham is a premium craft cocktail establishment housed in a beautifully renovated traditional Korean hanok house in Seoul's historic Jongno District, creating an elegant contrast between ancient architecture and innovative mixology. The bar's name translates from Korean as "oak," reflected in warm wood tones throughout the interior. The philosophy blends traditional Korean flavors with modern cocktail techniques, featuring drinks built around regional ingredients and traditions—such as buckwheat and pine cocktails evoking Gangwon Province, stronger pours featuring Andong's soju, and softer drinks shaped by Jeju's botanicals including hallabong citrus. Ranked #6 on Asia's 50 Best Bars 2025, the intimate venue accommodates groups up to four, operates Tuesday through Sunday from 6 PM to 1 AM, and offers a refined yet welcoming experience.
