Vegan Groceries - Edit
Small shop selling vegan groceries, some of which can be stored at ambient temperature (ready meals canned food, instant noodles, etc) and some of which are frozen. Personally I was excited to see packs of VegFood ready meals which I bought as souvenirs to bring back to my country. There are also microwaves for heating up food and some seats for dining in. There's also an AirBnB on the second floor, and a vegan bakery called Rainbow Crust on the first floor. Walking distance from Jagalchi Station.

Visiting this small treasure is a must! - Edit
I was so happy to find this place. There were so many Korean snacks, drinks, ramen – even toiletries, that I have never seen before and wished we had in Europe as well. I wanted to buy everything, but my suitcase was too small.

Vegan grocery shop - Edit
The owner of this shop is the sweetest lady! There is a good selection of vegan ramens, frozen foods, and a limited selection of other snacks. We got the ramen and frozen Mandi which the shop owner prepared for us to have in store. We enjoyed the food and especially the great service!

Fantastic little shop & food - Edit
The owner of this shop is the most friendly sweet person I have met!
Read moreThe concept is simple: a 100% vegan shop with quite a bit of selection. If you’d like, the owner will cook the food you purchase for you to eat in the shop.
Definitely a must-visit when in Busan!

Tasty and hospitable - Edit
Went into this place not sure what to expect so was pleasantly surprised. They have an AirBnB on 2F (I'd love to stay sometime!!) and shop and seating on 3F with shelf and frozen goods. You can cook the food you buy and eat it there for an extra 500won. I asked the woman for a recommendation as she suggested a frozen microwave rice dish (5000won) and offered to prepare it for me. It was lovingly presented with a fresh garnish on the side. She didn't speak much English but was conversational asking where I was from and telling me about her son's cat. She was really sweet, she liked my vegan tattoo and gave me high five for being vegan for the animals. A really lovely experience. They had Supreme Master TV on, so Loving Hut adjacent! There was a water cooler available.

Have to visit - Edit
You should 100% go to this place when in Busan. It’s run by a lovely local couple who have a wide range of vegan things to buy like a mart. You have the choice of eating at the place and they prepare it for you. They also have a few things made by the lady herself. Along side the vegan factor it was so nice to meet some local people.

Good food and service! - Edit
Vegan mart is a vegan convience store! They have some nice vegan treats you can buy. You can also get any of the food items like instant noodles/rice/dumplings/etc. And the owner will cook for it for you and give some sides (I got kimchi, seaweed and apple slices). The owner is super friendly and knows a little english. Will definitely come back next time I'm in Busan!

Lovely owner - Edit
Stepping inside was like entering someone's home turned into a convenience store. It was very warm and inviting. The owner helped me to select some items and prepared a ready-made meal in the microwave and steamed some dumplings for me. She also gave me some kimchi, fruit and lollipops free of charge.

Great value! Warm service! - Edit
This was the first time Ive tried this concept where you pick out the packaged food and the owner prepares it for you. We got a TON of food for only 20k won for 2 people (black bean noodles, dumplings, kimchi, mock meat and oranges). Amazing deal given the inflation. Tons of different groceries to choose from too. Best of all was the sweet staff who provided friendly company and conversation! Check it out! #Veganuary
Read morePros: So much food for a good price!, You will leave full., Very friendly staff!

Very cute place with good variety and the option to cook what you buy there. - Edit
The place is upstairs in an easy to get to location, close to several bus stops. Close to Chungmu market, we used that as a landmark to get off at the right stop. It’s in the area you might change bus routes for Gamcheon village.
Read moreThe owner is very sweet and helpful. They have a kitchen area where you can cook what you’ve bought.
They have a great range of products including various ingredients for cooking (including nutritional yeast), sweets (including chocolates and marshmallows), frozen foods, frozen meals, instant noodles. We bought this vegan jerky which was 3000 won and was delicious. We’ll try to make it back for more shopping. #Veganuary
Pros: Good stock of a range of vegan products, Can cook your food there , Lovely owner

Lovely place! - Edit
I went there about a month ago, and it was the best vegan grocery store I've been to! I also ate lunch there. The older women who was working there was so nice! We talked a bit and she helped me to cook the food that I bought. She also gave me some kimchi that her husband had made🥰 The store is almost like an apartment. They have different kitchen devises that you can use, such as rice cooker, water boiler, microwave etc.😊👍

Juste incroyable - Edit
Deux petites dames qui tiennent une « épicerie » au dessus de leur guesthouse. Je vous les conseille à 10000%, elles étaient si gentilles et si douces! vous pouvez CUISINER CE QUE VOUS ACHETEZ! Elles m’ont offert entrée et dessert (des petites clémentines trop bonnes!) et j’ai pu manger la bas. Une expérience si adorable qu’elle m’a donné le sourire!

Pros: Le personnel d’une gentillesse inouïe! , des options vegan comme j’en ai jamais vu! , possibilités de cuisiner ce qu’on a acheté

Small shop with lovely owner - Edit
We arrived and the place looked closed, but you actually have to go inside the house up to the second floor. The concept is a small shop where you can cook what you buy if you want to. We started boiling water when the lady stopped and sat us down. She then proceeded to cook our meal and invited us to some organic kimchi her husband made and coffee. A very nice moment.

Friendly, accommodating, and most of all CHEEESE - Edit
Two very sweet women, helped me find some vegan cheese! Something not easy to find here in Busan. There's also coconut oil at a very reasonable price. I also enjoyed tea in their sitting room with some wonderful crackers. I highly recommend visiting and getting your vegan needs satisfied here.
