Knit Coffee opened in November 2023 and is a daytime cafe on the ground floor of a residential tower on the slope of Namsan, in room 107 of the Namsan Trapalace building on Sowol ro 2 gil. It is a short walk from Seoul Station and close to Baekbeom Square and a stretch of the Seoul City Wall. It describes itself as a specialty coffee brand with its own take on Australian coffee culture. The inner tables have working power outlets.

Weekdays start early, with the doors opening at seven, and weekends begin at nine. The cafe closes in the late afternoon, shortly before five on weekdays and before six at weekends, so it is a morning and midday stop rather than an evening one.
