Hurwundeki is an innovative lifestyle space located in London that serves up homemade food, quality coffee and affordable haircuts. The unique concept incorporates Korean cuisine and access to a barbershop that isn't enormously expensive.
The clever cafe offers discounts on coffee for those getting haircuts, while the restaurant portion specializes in an impressive selection of gourmet Korean dishes. Hurwundeki also has a BYOB policy, so while there are no alcoholic drinks on the menu, you can bring your own.
