history
It is the cafe that creates
more than a culture.
Starting with Sinchon branch, in 2002, when even coffee shops were unfamiliar, A TWOSOME PLACE has been a premium dessert cafe brand and introduced a new cafe culture where you can enjoy coffee as well as various desserts together.
We could spread the dessert cafe culture not only to Seoul but also to other cities by launching the franchise business in 2008. We have laid the foundation for a leading brand that suits the customers' tastes and needs.
Entering China market in 2011, we have enhanced brand competitiveness, and in 2014, we have launched the first coffee bean dualization service in Korea to provide quality coffee to meet customers' tastes.
In 2020, we launched 'aLIST', a representative home cafe brand to introduce products from A TWOSOME PLACE. We make it convenient to enjoy ours anytime, anywhere.
A TWOSOME PLACE, a leading brand of premium coffee and dessert cafe, will create a lasting value of dessert cafe culture with more differentiated products and services.
