Rain Report Cafe in Seoul is a unique cafe where it rains perpetually every 15 minutes and patrons are offered umbrellas, rubber boots, and raincoats.

If you find nothing more relaxing than a cup of hot coffee on a rainy day, you’ll probably love the concept of Rain Report Cafe, a South Korean cafe where it rains heavily every 15 minutes. Rain is definitely an unusual concept to design a cafe around but judging by the very positive Google review score this place currently has, Rain Report is definitely a very special place. Nestled in the middle of a residential area in Itaewon, Rain Report is almost completely decked in black and lined with bamboo trees, which really makes you feel like you’re outside the busy South Korean capital when the downpour starts. And that happens very frequently.

The café has panoramic windows offering a clear view of its inner courtyard, which is where the magic happens. Every quarter hour, regardless of the daily weather forecast, it pours at Rain Report Cafe. And we’re not talking about a few drops of water, but a heavy downpour that so many of us find relaxing.

Rain Report Cafe relies heavily on its artificial rain, offering patrons the chance to step into its courtyard to experience the heavy rain and even provides free plastic umbrellas, raincoats, and rubber boots. Ever since its soft opening in May of this year, the unique cafe has become popular with Instagram influencers eager to have their pictures taken in the rain. Months after its grand opening in June, Rain Report is still going viral constantly on South Korean social media.

Because of its popularity, Rain Report Cafe isn’t the quietest place to enjoy a cup of coffee. There are sometimes lines of patrons waiting by the windows to film the downpour, and stepping out into the courtyard more than likely makes you a character in their clips. But if that doesn’t bother you, it’s definitely a must-visit attraction in Seoul.
