Butty Sandwich House in Seongsu: Sandwiches, Smoothies & a Garden Stop

Sandwiches, smoothies and a leafy garden make Butty a welcoming lunch stop in Seongsu.

A leafy corner of Seongsu

Before you look at the menu, look at the entrance. White pillars frame dark brickwork, climbing greenery spills over the balcony, and flowers fill the little garden beside a wooden SANDWICH sign. Butty Sandwich House has the kind of frontage that makes a walk through Seongsu's lanes feel like a discovery.

Olive-colored doors, wood counters and pale tiles give the interior a warm, understated feel. Outside, a small seating area sits among the plants. Butty fits naturally into a day of exploring Seongsu: stop for a sandwich between shops, or take a little longer over lunch in the garden.

Inside: watch the sandwich counter at work

The open counter is a focal point of the room. Behind the glass, leafy greens, shredded carrots, sliced fillings and bottles of sauce are arranged within reach of the staff. Bread and stacks of plates sit above them, while warm lamps soften the exposed ceiling and tiled surfaces.

Sandwiches are the focus, with options ranging from jambon to cheese-filled panini. The menu makes it easy to choose between a ham-based meal, a hot mushroom sandwich and a basil-and-tomato alternative. Add a smoothie for a fuller lunch, or keep things simple with a sandwich before continuing your walk.

What to order, and a realistic budget

Start by deciding whether you want a cheese-focused sandwich, a hot panini or a ham-filled roll. Published menus give these useful reference points:

Menu item	Listed price	Why look at it?
Butty sandwich	KRW 12,000	The namesake option: cheese, apple-jalapeño jam and truffle condiments.
Mushroom melt panini	KRW 16,000	A mushroom-and-cheese option for a hot sandwich.
Jambon sandwich	KRW 13,000	A ham sandwich to consider if the filled roll catches your eye.
Basil tomato (vegan)	KRW 13,000	A listed plant-based alternative; confirm availability when ordering.
Berry Up	KRW 9,000	A berry-and-yogurt drink.

The drinks menu also includes Matcha Green at KRW 9,500 and Sunset Citrus at KRW 8,500, alongside the berry-and-yogurt Berry Up. A sandwich and one of these drinks would put a simple meal around KRW 20,500–25,500 using the listed prices.

These are reference prices checked on October 8, 2026, rather than a guaranteed current menu. Sources: DiningCode menu and Polle menu.

Garden seating or takeaway?

Tables and benches sit close to the garden planting, beneath the building's white balcony. The outdoor area is an inviting spot for a break in comfortable weather. If you prefer eating inside, ask staff about available seating when you arrive.

Takeaway is another option if you want to continue exploring the neighborhood. Keep some flexibility in your itinerary: visitor reports mention busy periods and waits, so allow time for your order even when taking it to go. See Polle's visitor reports.

How to find Butty Sandwich House

Address: 31-22 Ttukseom-ro 17-gil, Seongdong-gu, Seoul. Both DiningCode and Polle identify this address. Search for the full shop name in your map app, then check the destination address before setting out.

Seongsu Station on Line 2 is a practical starting point; use live walking directions to the address rather than relying on a fixed journey time. Public listings show hours of 9:00 a.m.–7:00 p.m., with last orders at 6:30 p.m. Confirm the day's opening arrangements before making a special trip. Source: DiningCode hours.

Polle lists no on-site parking. For a visit built around Seongsu's streets and shops, arriving by public transport is the easier planning choice. Source: Polle venue details.

My pick: make Butty a relaxed sandwich stop during a Seongsu walk, especially if its leafy entrance and open kitchen appeal to you. Leave room to choose from the day's menu, and let the garden be a bonus when the weather suits.
