# Egg Benedict solo brunch and ₩2,000 coffee in Gwangalli, Busan - By Yeoun (https://superchart.com/en/@after-the-outing/) - Written Sep 8, 2026 - Local places › Restaurants › Suyeong, Busan - Sponsored: This post was written as a paid visit sponsorship. - English edition: https://superchart.com/en/@after-the-outing/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/ - Also in: [한국어](https://superchart.com/ko/@after-the-outing/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/index.md) ## In short Vivid13 is a brunch-and-pasta restaurant in a side street above Gwangalli Beach in Suyeong, Busan. Eating alone for a late lunch, the writer ordered egg Benedict and an iced latte — the two soft-boiled eggs on top made it feel like a two-person portion, and with carrot rapee and salad on the side, every last bite got finished. With window seats for solo diners and a self-serve bar, Vivid13 works equally well for eating alone or for a date in Gwangalli. ## Good to know - **Location**: 1st floor, Gwangan Building, 129 Gwangnam-ro, Suyeong-gu, Busan, South Korea (in a side street above Gwangalli Beach) - **Parking**: No on-site parking; use a nearby lot - **Order rule**: One menu item per person required - **Review perk**: Naver receipt review gets you a mushroom soup - **Coffee takeaway**: Event price of ₩2,000 - **Dogs**: No strollers or leashes; allowed only in a closed carrier - **Seating**: Window seats for solo diners, 4-person tables, group seating in the back - **Self-serve bar**: Cutlery, water, ketchup, hot sauce *as written by the visitor on Sep 8, 2026* Lately I spend a lot of daytime hours alone, so lunch is always a struggle. Busan has so many great restaurants and so many new spots I want to try, but when you're killing time solo, there's a lot to consider! This time I had errands in Gwangalli during the day and figured I'd grab a late lunch — and I found a place I loved from the interior to the food's looks and taste. Let me introduce Vivid13, a brunch spot in Gwangalli, Busan. ## Vivid13's location and parking ![Exterior of Vivid13 brunch restaurant in a side street above Gwangalli Beach](https://img.superchart.com/images/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo-01-1eypc-966.webp) Vivid13, this Gwangalli brunch spot, sits in a side street above the beach. The building itself has no parking, so use a nearby lot. ![Coffee takeaway event sign at the entrance of Vivid13](https://img.superchart.com/images/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo-02-1ipoy-966.webp) Before going in, this coffee takeaway event caught my eye! As someone who's had Vivid13's coffee — the beans here are genuinely delicious. A ₩2,000 price for this quality makes no sense... if you're looking for coffee takeaway in Gwangalli, run to Vivid13. ## Dog policy in Gwangalli, carrier conditions ![Sign explaining carrier conditions for bringing dogs](https://img.superchart.com/images/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo-03-fwoy0-966.webp) Dog policies have gotten stricter lately, ugh. Strollers and leashes aren't allowed, but it says you can bring your dog if it's in a closed carrier! My dogs hate carriers so, well, add this to the list of places we can't go together... If you need to bring your dog, prepare a carrier and it's probably smart to call ahead to check before visiting, haha. ## Colors that live up to the name — interior and seating ![Colorful interior view of Vivid13](https://img.superchart.com/images/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo-04-bik17-966.webp) ![Interior of Vivid13 showing group seating in the back](https://img.superchart.com/images/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo-05-1xdtt-966.webp) Vivid13, this Gwangalli brunch place — you can see exactly why it's called 'Vivid' from the color scheme inside! There's group seating set up in the back too, and sure enough, brunch is prime chatting time for groups of women haha. Several group tables came in while I was there. ![Window seats good for solo dining with roomy table spacing](https://img.superchart.com/images/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo-06-1rf44-966.webp) There are window seats where you can eat comfortably alone, and the tables have plenty of space, so I took a relaxed 4-person table. ![Vivid13's self-serve bar decorated with figurines](https://img.superchart.com/images/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo-07-1mudn-m-966.webp) ![Self-serve bar corner with cutlery and sauces](https://img.superchart.com/images/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo-08-hazjf-966.webp) ![Self-serve water station with ice water](https://img.superchart.com/images/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo-09-81pyw-966.webp) The owner of Vivid13, this Gwangalli brunch spot, seems to love cute little things — the self-serve bar is decorated full of adorable figurines. It's set up so you can easily grab cutlery, water, ketchup, and hot sauce yourself. It was hot out, so the ice-cold water was such a nice touch, ugh. ## Vivid13's menu lineup ![Vivid13's brunch menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo-10-1hwok-966.webp) ![Menu page noting one item per person rule and receipt review perk](https://img.superchart.com/images/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo-11-9eogn-966.webp) They give you a mushroom soup for a Naver receipt review, and one menu item per person is required! Everything on the menu looked good, so I thought I'd have to drag my friends here next time and order a bunch of things to try, haha. ![Menu page featuring the egg Benedict](https://img.superchart.com/images/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo-12-1vxjh-966.webp) After some deliberation, I ordered the egg Benedict, which looked nutritionally on point too. English muffin + sliced ham + various vegetables — the combination was exactly what I wanted. ![Menu page with jambon bagel and stew](https://img.superchart.com/images/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo-13-19ush-966.webp) ![Menu board listing various brunch items](https://img.superchart.com/images/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo-14-1c74t-966.webp) With jambon bagels, stew, and other Gwangalli brunch options on the menu, if there are two or more of you, it seems like a good idea to order a variety and share, haha. ![Drinks menu listing pasta, coffee, ade, and beer](https://img.superchart.com/images/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo-15-1musb-966.webp) There are pasta dishes too, and drinks go beyond coffee, ade, and herbal tea to include beer, so if I didn't have plans after, I would've had a cold beer too, ugh. ## Egg Benedict — a two-person portion for one ![Plate of Vivid13's egg Benedict topped with two soft-boiled eggs](https://img.superchart.com/images/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo-16-1mhmo-1200.webp) Time for a proper leisurely brunch, haha. The egg Benedict portion is huge. Two soft-boiled eggs on top — isn't this basically a portion for two?! But I, alone, cleaned the plate anyway, lol. ![Close-up of the egg Benedict on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo-17-1wkxy-966.webp) It looked so pretty I couldn't help carrying it over to the sunny window seat to snap photos — that's me, the blogger. ![Egg Benedict and salad photographed in sunlight by the window](https://img.superchart.com/images/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo-18-qm8zt-966.webp) It came with carrot rapee and salad, which kept things refreshing enough that I finished it down to the last bite. This is it — pop the yolk, cut the muffin and ham neatly with a knife, and eat it all together in one bite: delicious. ## Iced latte — the coffee here is legit ![Cross-section of the egg Benedict with the yolk broken open](https://img.superchart.com/images/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo-19-11oyg-966.webp) And as I mentioned earlier, Vivid13 is a coffee destination. I ordered the iced latte, and the nutty flavor was insane. At ₩2,000 for takeaway, there's no reason not to drink the coffee here. ## How was it as a solo dining spot in Gwangalli? ![Vivid13's iced latte and brunch table setting](https://img.superchart.com/images/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo-20-1gxaf-966.webp) Vivid13, this Gwangalli brunch spot, had such a great atmosphere for enjoying a solo meal. The menu is so varied that one visit definitely won't be enough! I got to comfortably read a book alone and spend a relaxed stretch of time, which made me happy. Highly recommend this brunch café for solo dining or dates in Gwangalli ♥ ## Where it is - Vivid13 Brunch & Pasta Gwangalli Main Branch (비비드13 브런치앤파스타 광안리본점) - 1st floor, Gwangan Building, 129 Gwangnam-ro, Suyeong-gu, Busan, South Korea - 부산광역시 수영구 광남로 129 광안빌딩 1층 - 35.1532399, 129.1166077 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%B9%84%EB%B9%84%EB%93%9C13%20%EB%B8%8C%EB%9F%B0%EC%B9%98%EC%95%A4%ED%8C%8C%EC%8A%A4%ED%83%80%20%EA%B4%91%EC%95%88%EB%A6%AC%EB%B3%B8%EC%A0%90/@35.1532399,129.1166077,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@after-the-outing/vivid-thirteen-gwangalli-brunch-solo/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
