"Private Stop Inn" is an atmospheric bar located in the Lang Island tribe, hidden deep within an alley. If you don’t follow Google Maps to get here, you probably won’t stumble upon it easily.
The whole place is divided into indoor and outdoor areas. The way to keep mosquitoes away is by lighting a fire pit, which I love, haha. The outdoor seating has a vibe reminiscent of a rural Korean courtyard, while the indoor seating is almost entirely on the floor, where you have to take off your shoes to sit. The staff brought us to an incredibly cute seating area that felt like drinking under a tree or amidst ruins, complemented by string lights; it's perfect for a group of friends to enjoy drinks and chat. Words cannot fully express how cute and chill the style of this place is.
They only offer alcoholic beverages and carbonated drinks, with no food options available.
The minimum spend is one drink per person, and during peak times, there is a one-hour time limit. However, we sat there for almost two hours that day and were never reminded about the time.
Sister Cocktail $300
This drink looks orange and is clearly a girl’s drink, made with Benlychee, Cointreau, and orange juice. At first sip, it tasted a bit like cough syrup, but it was sweet and tangy—definitely something girls would enjoy.
Matcha + Alcohol $350
The name is quite self-explanatory, made with matcha milk and Benlychee. The staff said you can stir it well before drinking or drink it directly. When I tried it directly, it was like drinking milk, haha, but once mixed, the alcoholic flavor significantly increased. It was my first time having a cocktail with matcha flavor, and it paired surprisingly well! I think matcha lovers will really like this~~ The alcohol content also felt quite high; I hadn’t even finished my glass before I started feeling a bit tipsy.
The atmosphere at "Private Stop Inn" is truly top-notch, whether you're on a date with your partner or out with friends for a nightcap—it's fantastic!
