Our 1–10 rating of how easy this place is to enjoy on your own: whether there is a natural seat for one, how simple it is to order, how staff treat solo guests, and whether the room gives you something to settle into. A 9 or 10 means arriving alone is completely normal here.
Go to Simoneta when you want a Hongdae bar that’s actually built for solo drinking. You can sit at the counter with an easy view of the room, order quickly, and settle into the warm, unhurried vibe. The menu is straightforward—whiskey-forward options with cocktails available—and bar food like Japanese-style oden is a reliable start that carries you from first sip to last call.
