About
Sinsa speakeasy behind a boxing-gym front — gloves off, cocktails up.
Boxing Tiger hides its Sinsa cocktail room behind a boxing-gym front — ring the doorbell, wait for staff screening, enter past the gloves — the speakeasy ritual played completely straight. Inside, the economics are among the genre's most transparent: 10,000 won per person covers the welcome drink, unlimited crackers with cream cheese, and a closing tea service — hospitality bookends that most speakeasies charge à la carte. The bar counter is the documented best seat, custom recommendations the staff's stated specialty; the drinkless-preference conversation is the intended entry point. Hours run 8pm-3am (Sundays earlier and shorter), with weekday pre-8pm arrivals or the phone (02-540-2399) beating the weekend crush. Gangnam's speakeasy scene skews theatrical; this one lands the theater and then over-delivers on the care. Ring the bell; the gym is a lie, the welcome isn't.
Local tips
- Ring the doorbell at the entrance to be admitted — staff screens guests as part of the speakeasy concept (no walk-ins without announcement).
- Arrive before 8 PM on weekdays or reserve ahead via phone — weekends fill up quickly and staff recommend calling 02-540-2399.
- Ask bartenders for custom recommendations if you're unsure; they excel at matching drinks to your taste and often create exclusive variations.
- Budget 10,000 KRW per person as a cover charge, which includes welcome drink, unlimited crackers with cream cheese spread, and a closing tea service.
- Sit at the bar counter to watch the bartenders' craft and enjoy interactive conversation — this is the most popular and engaging seating.
