BAR-da
Bar다
About
A bar in Hongdae with a comfortable atmosphere where you won't feel awkward going alone. They also take song requests and play them.
Bar-da splits its Hongdae identity between two hospitalities: the comfortable solo-friendly bar where song requests get played (the house's founding promise — alone but not awkward), and the baijiu program that turned it into the district's Chinese-spirits education center: invitation-style seated tastings with sommelier storytelling, reservation seatings at 5 and 7pm, the walk-in baijiu bar running 10pm-1am Friday-Monday, and all-baijiu Thursdays. The alley location behind the Starbucks near Hongik station rewards Naver navigation. Smart-casual dress matches the curated-bottle register; the guided pairings run educational by design. Tuesdays-Wednesdays dark. Request a song or request a flight: both bars answer, one address.
