Good korean food!

Delicious soup which tasted like comfort food. It really warms the belly and the soul. Also tried the fried chicken because I read a few good reviews about it. The fried chicken was too salty and pale in taste profile. It comes with a small dish of salt and radish, but the batter and flavouring could be improved.

Pros: Soup!

Cons: Fried chicken over fried and oily

Great Korean food

I got the Doenjang-jjigae 된장찌개 that was absolutely delicious. Same for the dumplings. There is a vegan shop just in the next room.

Thank You Loving Hut 🌱

🇰🇷💚🇰🇷 We loved everything about Loving Hut! The food was absolutely delicious. We had the Soft Tofu Stew Menue (a very authentic Korean meal) and the Vegan Pizza 🤤 Inside the restaurant is also a small shop, where you can buy groceries and even pet food. The Owner focus on Education as well, so big YES to this 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 We highly recommend going there, supporting the vegan Community to grow in South Korea~

One of my Favorites in Seoul

Yummy food. It was worth the price. I so loved their soymeat ttbbaegi. The place was clean and cozy. A staff member could speak English and was friendly, too. There was a small vegan shop next to it.

Nice place

The food was nice and the decor had a slightly dated but cozy feel. There’s plenty of seating and the portion sizes are generous. There’s also a small store where you can buy vegan snacks, cheeses, and alcohol. The menu is in both Korean and English. There’s good WiFi and several outlets for charging electronics. The only downside is the World Vegan Prayer broadcast which says some pretty disturbing things, avoid sitting opposite the TV 😅 #Veganuary

Pros: All vegan, Big portions, Cute decor

So good 😘 another good 분식 cafe

Im so happy i can write a good review for this place finally. Tbh their food was mediocre at best til now. But when i went today and had their ddeokbokki and cold noodles they were the best ive tried!!! I think they have redone their recipes. They taste really good now(at least the ones i’ve tried). Cafe is always staffed by amazingly nice people and is quiet and usually not too crowded. They have goood stocks of vegan groceries. Always a comfy homey place to come to for gangnam-ers.

Delicious Korean food

Friendly and helpful staff! The lady working when we visited spoke English and explained all of the Korean dishes to us. (The menu is in Korean and English, but she helped us understand the difference between different dishes we’d never heard of before.) Food was ready very quickly and absolutely delicious! They also had six different flavors of vegan ice cream, YUM!!!

There is a vegan shop attached to the restaurant, and we purchased some noodles, seitan, and chocolate to take back to our hotel room.

My absolute favourite :)

I lived in Seoul for 2.5 years, and this place was my absolute favourite. The spicy soy fried chicken is genuinely one of the most delicious things I've ever eaten in my life. The guys were even kind enough to teach me to make it, so I can make it now I'm home.

Atmosphere is cozy and clean, just a lovely place that makes me happy. Always a pleasant memory from my time in Korea.

Pros: Soy fried chicken, Soy fried chicken, Soy fried chicken

Cons: Gained 10 lbs

Good food

Personally I found the atmosphere somewhat strange since there is a propaganda television program (about vegan living and the teachings of supreme master Ching Hai) that runs permanently. It made me feel a little uncomfortable.
That being said, the food was good. I was happy I got to have vegan tteokbokki, just keep in mind that this dish is really spicy. My sister who normally eats meat had a soy bean paste stew which she liked and which was a little spicy as well.

Lovely hut

The restaurant is a bit further away from the center but deserves to be visited. Most dishes on the menu can be considered Korean but there is also pizza, fried chips, etc. The food was tasty with good portions. The same space is also shared by a small shop that has a variety of vegan products.

Pros: 100% vegan, Includes small shop

Cons: A bit away from the center

Good in a pinch

I had the Jjamppong noodle and blueberry cake, and they were good, but not really anything to write home about. The grocery here was one of the few places I was able to find vegan butter, and there was a good amount of healthly vegan grocery items for sale.

That being said, this DEFINITELY feels like a chain vegan restaurant among a plethora of delicious individually owned cafes, lunch, and dinner places where you can get 4 and 5 star food for the same price.

Cozy and friendly

I really like this place. The food is good and the staffs are friendly. This place is a vegan cafe-restaurant-store. You can order food, coffee, smoothly, cake, etc, and you can also buy some vegan snacks, instant foods and ingredients for vegan food.

Pros: Yummy food and a variety of vegan products.

Food ok but feels dated

The days of "wow, vegan food!" are over in Seoul. There are great new places all over the city. The menu options and food at this LH feel a bit dated now. While they are ok, they are long overdue for a refresh/upgrade to bring them into the 2020s. LH has a long history so hope they get some fresh ideas.

Pros: affordable, well intentioned meals

Cons: Celebrity worship wall is bit much!

Solid meals

I loved the variety of dishes offered. My sister got vegan fried chicken which I didn’t like much but she loved. I’ve tried the soft tofu soup which was to die for, fried rice which was good, ice cream and waffles which were crazy delicious, and bingsu which I didn’t like (very icy and not melt-in-your-mouth like bingsu should be). Seems like most of the meals offered are decent or delicious!

Pros: All vegan, Good variety, Delicious food

Cons: Far away from everything, Bingsu was very icy

Creamy ice cream and delicious options

I am in love with this restaurant.
They offer you water with slices of lemons inside.
What I really like that every Loving Hut offers different menus. This one had a lot of veganized korean dishes like Jjigae, fried chicken etc. But also burger with fries and more.

I went there at least two times, just because of the Ice cream. They had five flavours and I loved the chocolate, almond and coconut one (don't know the exact name anymore). You need to try the ice cream!

The only point which was annoying, was to reach the loving hut by bus. The bus connection wasnt' the best haha.

The very first time there was crazy: I ate the burger with fries, soy chicken and 5 scoop of ice cream by my own. (I ate 3 first, but because the texture of the ice cream was so nice, I ate two more xD). I was so full afterwards.

Pros: english speaking staff and very kind, sooooo amazing ice cream!, many vegan korean dishes

Cons: bit hard to reach

Great options!

The food here is always great although I wish there were some consistency with side dishes – sometimes there is one and other times there’ll be 3-4 and some rice. The attached store is great and reasonably priced
