It's a place to unwind, especially on warm summer nights, where you can relish delightful refreshments under the soft glow of the city lights.

One review noted the café's popularity amongst a diverse crowd, affirming its status as a beloved local haunt, perfect for everyone from young adventurers to seasoned patrons.

While some reviewers mentioned that the coffee and pastries, like the cakes, are certainly good, it’s essentially the experience of the café—the ambiance, the company, and the views—that leaves a lasting impression. As another customer succinctly puts it, Cerro is a place not to be missed, especially for those exploring the scenic fabric of Gangneung city.

The café extends its hours into the late evening, offering a fantastic night view of the city. Its modern and spacious interior creates a refreshing haven on those warm summer nights. Think of it as a wine bar, minus the wine, but featuring delightful coffee and refreshing lemonades.

강릉시내 지나가다가 언덕위에 불켜진 예쁜 카페가 있어 들어가 본 집. 통창으로 보이는 탁트인 전경이 가장 맘에 들고, 커피와 타르트는 그저 그런 듯. 루프탑도 있는데 추워서 올라가 보진 못함.

강릉 시내 전경을 시원하게 사방팔방 보고 산 위쪽이라 정말 풍경들이 좋았어요~~^^ 아는 지인 소개로 가게 되었지만 도심속에 이런 카페가 있었나 싶을 정도로 탁트인게 깔끔한 분위기도 한몫 했어요~~^^ 인증샷 찍는 장소까지 ~~ 4층과 5층까지 있어 야외 테이블에서도 차를 즐길수 있는곳 이였어요~~^^ 입소문으로 찾는곳이라 아는분들만 갔다는 사실~~^^ ㅎㅎ 나이 드신분들도 즐겨 찾는곳 이더라구요~~^^ 안 가보셨으면 강추합니다~~^^
