Nice sandwiches

Had a couple of sandwiches for lunch. The avocado one was really tasty. The other one was tasty too, but felt more like sweet pastry than a filling sandwich.

So many baked goods!!!

We tried most of the pastries since we were a group of nine hungry vegans. I loved the mugwort bread with cream as well as the mocha bread. The chocolate croissant didn’t disappoint either. The rest of the group had mushroom and avocado toast, but I focused on the sweets. Yay!!

Good coffee too.

Pros: Variety, Mugwort bread

Cons: Very small

Un bonita experiencia!

El lugar estaba muy lindo decorado, se sintió muy acogedor. El personal fue sumamente amable, nos recibieron con una sonrisa y nos explicaron las distintas opciones del menú. Todo estaba delicioso! El latte de coco se sintió como un postre, la mezcla perfecta de café y crema helada.

The flavors and textures were perfect – such amazing treats!
We also got the salty bread and a croissant to go, and they were just as incredible.

120% Amazing if I could give 10 stars! 🌟

1st visit: This place is a boutique gourmet cafe/restaurant hidden in Busan! Omg, they basically sold out a lot of things by 2 pm, so I reluctantly settled with Quesadillas. To my surprise, it was out of this world. I wish I had come earlier today. How do they master vegan cream cheese? I do not know. All I know it’s that, I think 🤔 I got sent to heaven & back in just one bite! 🥰 Do come as soon as they open at 11 am to get the best choices on everything here. Will return! Just a side note: they only open on FRI, SAT, SUN 11 am to 5 pm! 🥹

2nd visit: I raced there at 11 am sharp on Friday to get the freshest baked croissants 🥐 possible with no disappointment! 🤩 omg! These are some of the best vegan croissants in the world and I’ve been traveling to 111 countries as of today! I had a super delicious pistachios cream with cherry topping croissant! 🥐Now haha I just earned my self an excuse & permission to visit Busan again. 🤣 Highly Recommended!

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such an incredibly detailed and heartfelt review. Reading your words truly made our day!
We’re so happy your first visit, even with limited options in the afternoon, turned into such a memorable experience. Your reaction to our vegan cream cheese and quesadilla honestly means the world to us—“heaven & back in one bite” is one of the best compliments we could ever receive 🥰
And thank you as well for kindly sharing our opening days and hours—your tip will definitely help future visitors plan better.
Your second visit sounds just as exciting! Racing in at 11 a.m. for fresh croissants was the perfect move 🥐✨
To hear that our vegan croissants rank among the best you’ve had across 111 countries is beyond an honor. The pistachio cream croissant with cherry topping is one of our favorites too, so we’re thrilled you loved it!
Knowing that we’ve given you a reason (and an excuse 😄) to come back to Busan makes us incredibly proud.
Thank you sincerely for your strong recommendation, support, and love. We can’t wait to welcome you again on your next visit! 💛

Fully vegan restaurant/café/bakery

The chocolate salt bread is excellent 🤤
They offer a wide choice of pasties, sandwiches and drinks. The homemade grapefruit ade is amazing, you should try it!!
Also, they have a lunch menu. I didn’t notice the first time I went so I only took a sandwich and the second time I visited the place, I didn’t have time to try their menu but it seemed delish 😋

The owner is really sweet!! We had an issue with my credit card but she took the time to look with her bank and it was settled quickly 😊

A piece of advice, you should go as soon as they open bc they run out of products pretty quickly.

Healthy decent brunch

I ordered the avocado toast, it came with a lot of salad on top so it was difficult to eat with your hands. It had homemade pesto which was nice and all the ingredients tasted high quality and nutritious. It was pretty messy and I only got a single napkin and so I had to go up to ask for more napkins because there weren’t any on the table. It was 18000 won with an americano and I didn’t really fill full after I ate it. I went to the Costco nearby to get a slice because I was still hungry.

All the baked goods looked pretty good. If you are on a diet, this bakery seems like a good place.

Pros: Good service, Healthy

Amazing bakery in Busan, also serves lunch!

Tldr; Vegan bakery with an impressive selection, great lunch options with huge portions. Awesome milkshakes.

Coming from Europe, South Korea was like the Disney land of vegan desserts. This place in particular had a very big selection of incredible vegan pastries and baked goods. From cheese cream filled donuts, to diverse crumble cakes. Pizzas, colourful breads, cakes, salty, sweet, you name it.

They also serve lunch options, which include an avocado and mushrooms toast/sandwich, a kimchi rice with mushrooms and finally, a creamy mushroom pasta. We tried it all on our two visits, and everything was just great. Impressive portions, my wife had trouble finishing her plates.
The pasta and rice were a bit on the spicier side, and filled with delicious mushrooms.

We basically tried everything that was laid out, and every single thing we tried was just great. Couldn't find a single fault in anything. The Ciabatta sandwiches were great, all the different cream filled buns were just superb. The mugwort filled Campagne bread is probably my favorite bread ever. I did notice that for both the buns and Campagne breads, the filled portions were basically 90% of the dish, while the bread/bun were like a 10% shell. One really gets their money's worth here.

For drinks, we had some teas and their two offered milkshakes, which were strawberry and pineapple. Both were awesome, but I'd give the win to the pineapple due to personal preference.

Staff were very nice and accommodating. While the young staff could speak English, they had some trouble at times. Thankfully the older staff member, who i suspect was the owner, had exceptional English, and helped clear the misunderstanding.

Place has quite a few places to sit, and the music was relaxed. The place is also LGBT friendly, which is a nice bonus. The baked stuff were different on our two visits, and different things would come out as we sat there, sometimes only a single item would come out and that's it. Thankfully everything is good, so not an issue.

All in all, one of the best bakeries we tried on our trip to S.Korea, and I'd highly recommend it to anyone who wants good vegan desserts that are usually harder to come by.

Pros: Great selection , Big portions , LGBT friendly

Shocked and disappointed

I have been the April and May when they first opened and a few months ago I got delivery but many things were sold out. Both of my previous experiences were good so I was excited to visit but wow.

The staff didnt seem to know when the breads would be made, as they told us a different time than they actually came out (ended up being earlier tho)

I tried maybe 10 things there and only 1 was good, 2 or 3 were edible. The rest were so bad. The drinks menu is half sold out (indefinitely?)

The croissants came out raw in the center. So undercooked they couldn't be eaten.

The thing I enjoyed was the red rice cream cheese bread. The salt bread I liked last time i had it through delivery, but it wasnt as good this time. Everything else was just so so, weird flavor combinations or raw.

3.5 stars

I really wanted to love this place, because the café looks cute and they offer so many different products.

I visited twice and tried their chocolate brownie, Levain choco cookie, mini chocolate cookie and Hongkong Jenny cookies, and unfortunately I didn’t really enjoy any of them that much. The coconut could be tasted a bit too much (especially in the brownie) and cookies were a bit dry (and not chocolate-y enough).

sells out so fast , bread inconsistent

i went here twice on my trip to busan, but a lot of the things were sold out when i went in the afternoon and not put out yet when i went in the morning. it would be nice if they were out right when they open, especially cause they don’t open that early.

besides that everything i had was good. it took a while to get the food, but it was nice to chill with my friend and talk in the pretty cafe

they also have a naver store that you can order from domestically. i have yet to try it.

edit: knocked down one star because of raw breads

i went here again on another trip to busan with my friend

when we first got there, almost no breads were out but by the time we left most things were coming out. we ordered a lot as it kept being added and also got some pasta.

the pasta was good, but not amazing. but the price was fair and i thought it was pretty tasty.

50% of the breads we got were really yummy, but the others were undercooked. the chocolate croissant was virtually raw on the inside.

the coffee i got was really great, but i wanted to get a matcha latte or a black sesame one which they for some reason didn’t have.

overall i think i would not return here to eat in, but maybe to take away some breads if i really needed it. i wouldn’t go out of my way to go again

Must-Visit in Busan!

We made a brunch reservation by texting the mentioned number the evening before. When we arrived, our dishes were already prepared. Both the mushroom and avocado sandwich were very tasty! Good portions, fresh seasoning with special, creative add-ons. Sitting in the café, you can watch the baking process and smell the freshly baked breads. So we couldn’t restrain and took some baked goods on our way home which were also very good!

so much to choose from the brunch menu

i loved their avocado open sandwich! it’s got a pan fried silkened tofu on top, which is heavenly.. they have a burrito newly added to the brunch menu a few weeks ago as well. just the right amount of spiciness, quite filling. i haven’t yet tried their mushroom sandwich, pasta salad and falafel burger. so much to choose from 🤤

Pros: much to choose from the brunch menu, food looks AND tastes good, variety of drinks and bingsoo is back!!

Cons: bread runs out fast, too crowded at times , brunch menu does take time at times
