TACIT, Goseong: The TACIT Latte and Financiers at a Glass-Fronted Café by Cheonggan Beach

Two drinks in clear lidded cups on a black tray: a tall cup of reddish-brown drink with a black straw and a round black TACIT sticker, and a shorter cup layered caramel, milky and light brown with a round yellow TACIT sticker.

TACIT (태시트) is a café in Cheonggan-ri, Toseong-myeon, Goseong, on Gangwon's east coast, and MiddleClass.sg says Cheonggan Beach is right in front of it. Its menu centers on drinks, and reviewers on Polle (뽈레), a Korean restaurant review site, keep returning to its financiers (휘낭시에), small French butter cakes.

TACIT's gray walls and glass front

In my photos from October 2021, light-gray walls stand in a gravel yard with the name TACIT in black letters on the right-hand wall, and a white gabled building with a glass front sits behind them.

Esquire Korea's November 2020 roundup of new cafés in Sokcho and Goseong included TACIT, which it said had become popular with influencers within two or three months of opening. MiddleClass.sg's February 2022 review describes a standalone building with glass windows that give a peek of the East Sea, and limited indoor seating, mostly facing the sea.

The TACIT latte and the financiers

The tall cup in my photo holds a clear reddish-brown drink and the short cup is layered caramel, milky and light brown. I can't tell which menu items they are.

MiddleClass.sg's reviewer ordered the Tacit Latte, which the menu described as a sweet flat white, served iced only. The reviewer was told not to stir it and got a strong hit of espresso with the first sip, then something sweeter.

Several Polle reviewers single out TACIT's financiers. One says they are chewier than the traditional kind, and another chose a seaweed flavor (gamtae, 감태) for its sweet-and-salty taste.

TACIT's prices, then and now

MiddleClass.sg's February 2022 review recorded TACIT's americano at ₩5,500, latte and Tacit Latte at ₩6,000 each and financier at ₩2,700. Polle's menu list for TACIT, checked on November 14, 2026, shows americano at ₩5,500, latte at ₩6,500, TACIT latte at ₩7,000 and financier at ₩3,700.

Before you go

  • TACIT's hours depend on the source: Esquire Korea listed 11:00–20:00 with Wednesdays closed in November 2020, MiddleClass.sg listed 10:00–18:30 daily in February 2022, and a Polle reviewer says it closed at 6 pm. Check before you go.
  • Polle reviewers say TACIT can be full, and one took the order to go for lack of a seat. One reviewer mentions a public car park next door.
