The bar space is attractive.

The contrast between the raw, slightly industrial ceiling and the polished wooden floors creates a “rough-meets-refined” aesthetic. The coffee preparation area is open and integrated into the room, allowing guests to see the craftsmanship behind every cup. It breaks down the wall between the barista and the visitor, making the experience feel more personal.

Out of filter coffee, Ethiopian geisha
I ordered.
It’s not acidic, but it’s juicy
It was a good time to enjoy it gently.

Filter Coffee – Much like the design of the cafe, the coffee here is clean and sophisticated. Their filter coffee selection features rotating single-origin beans, each brewed to highlight a clear, vibrant flavor profile.
Beyond the drip, their espresso-based drinks are exceptionally balanced. It’s the kind of place where you can taste the “brightness” and “floral notes” exactly as described on the tasting card.


And they gave it to me in a coffee cup with a unique shape.


I felt good the whole time I drank.

Every object in Post Nobills feels like it was placed there with a purpose. From the minimalist shelving displaying high-end audio equipment to the subtle greenery and art books scattered around.
It’s “effortlessly cool.” It’s the kind of interior that inspires you to pull out a notebook, sketch, or finally start that creative project you’ve been putting off.

Post-Novills has a unique space
It’s attractive.
The furniture is square
It’s a dark brown tone,
Here colorful props
That’s the point

It feels like a waste brick.
The original structure is revealed partially exposed concrete.
The pillars and the walls,
It gives you an industrial feel.

Post Nobills feels like a high-end design studio or a well-curated living room of a creative director. The interior is a perfect blend of industrial raw textures and mid-century modern elegance.
The large, wide windows act as living frames, bringing in the shifting light of the day and providing a peaceful “people-watching” vantage point that makes the space feel airy and spacious.

It feels industrial even in the lighting
On the other hand, electrical wires are clean
It’s finished with iron, making it look more stylish.

The window is big, so it’s very open
There’s a lot of space, too.

This is a good cafe to enjoy coffee calmly in a quiet atmosphere.

It’s a popular spot for creators, writers, and locals working on laptops or reading. The background music is curated to be upbeat yet unobtrusive—think Lo-fi or mellow electronic beats that keep the creative juices flowing.
