Fans of coffee, pastries and good vibes should check out Four Nerd just outside the Yoon Gate at Camp Humphreys, South Korea.

Also known as 4NERD, this eye-catching cafe opened around mid-October next door to the popular Savory Restaurant.

At first glance, you might mistake it for Bike Manager, the motorcycle repair shop this cafe replaced.

It retains a striking motorcycle-themed interior and exterior and with a large 4NERD sign, there is no way you can miss it. Inside, the walls are decorated with neon lights and motorcycle helmets adorned with the names of motorcycle companies like Harley-Davidson and West Coast Choppers.

The décor is unique, with outdoor seating in the front and back. The tables and chairs are made of metal barrels and planks. The staff is very friendly, and patrons may place an order with them or use a kiosk.

Four Nerd has coffee, tea and various pastries — the usual menu you’ll find at most cafes. My caramel macchiato and croissant set me back about 8,000 won, or $5.91. Both were delicious.

What’s unique about Four Nerd is that it serves three varieties of hot dogs — original, cheese and jalapeno — for between 4,900 won to 5,500 won. Add-ons include bacon and onion flakes, along with typical condiments such as mustard, ketchup and mayo.

The cafe is family friendly and has converted motorcycles everywhere upon which anyone can sit.

The walls are decorated with neon lights and motorcycle helmets adorned with the names of motorcycle companies like Harley-Davidson and West Coast Choppers.

Overall, it was a great experience, and I look forward to another visit.
