On my return visit, I had a pollack roe baguette, injeolmi croissant, coffee, and milk tea on the third floor; the open sea view and varied seating stood out, though the second floor was busier. ## Good to know - **Address**: 607 Haean-ro, 1st–3rd floors, Gangneung-si, Gangwon Special Self-Governing Province, South Korea - **Hours listed in the original post**: 9:00 AM–9:00 PM; last order 8:30 PM; open year-round - **Parking**: Spacious parking, spaces up the hill on the second level, and a public lot across the road by the beach - **Ordered items and prices**: Pollack roe baguette ₩5,800; injeolmi croissant ₩4,900; hot milk tea ₩6,300; iced Americano ₩5,500 - **Seating and facilities**: Group tables, solo seats, high chairs on floors 2 and 3, phone-charging service, and an elevator - **Accessibility**: Wheelchair access at the entrance and seating, plus accessible parking - **Children's access**: The terrace and rooftop are no-kids zones *as written by the visitor on Sep 5, 2026* ## Where is Baegya Coffee, and is parking convenient? Baegya Coffee is a large bakery café at the end of Gyeongpo Beach. Cross one crosswalk and you reach Sacheonjin Beach, with the sea and pine trees visible around the café. This was a return visit, and its location directly in front of the sea was just as appealing the second time around. ![Sea and pine trees around Baegya Coffee in Gangneung](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-01-13uhf-900.webp) The entire building is used as the café, and the parking area was spacious. There are also parking spaces on the second level up the hill, and I was told there is a public parking lot by the beach across the road. There was also information about luggage storage at the front of the building. The original post lists hours as 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM, with last orders at 8:30 PM. It says the café is open year-round. ## How do the atmosphere and facilities differ by floor? There were signs inside, and I could use either the elevator or the stairs. The entrance and seating are wheelchair accessible, and there is accessible parking as well. ![Information signs inside Baegya Coffee in Gangneung](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-02-1z0cm-900.webp) ![Floor-by-floor space and use information at Baegya Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-03-topx1-822.webp) ### Which floor was relatively quiet? When I visited, the first floor was relatively quieter than the second and third floors. ![Relatively quiet first-floor interior at Baegya Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-04-1fn4g-900.webp) The first floor also had two large tables that looked suitable for groups. ![Large-table area on Baegya Coffee's first floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-05-h3m5i-900.webp) There was a station with water, a microwave, and syrups, along with Wi-Fi information. The same type of convenience station was available on the second and third floors. ![Convenience station with water and microwave at Baegya Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-06-1mk1l-900.webp) ### What were the second-floor atmosphere and child facilities like? The second floor had more people than the first and third floors, so it felt livelier. ![Busy second-floor interior at Baegya Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-07-1xp33-900.webp) There was a phone-charging service, and high chairs were provided on the second and third floors. However, the terrace and rooftop are no-kids zones, so visitors with children need to use the appropriate areas. ![Phone-charging service area on Baegya Coffee's second floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-08-1puk4-900.webp) ## What is the sea view like from the third floor and rooftop? This time, I used the third floor. Beyond the window seats, there were several tables inside and group seating, so there were plenty of seating options. ![Third-floor seating with high chairs at Baegya Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-09-1tkbr-900.webp) From the third floor, there were no buildings between the café and the sea, leaving the view wide open. Eating bread and drinks while looking out at the sea was what I remembered most from this visit, too. ![Sea view from Baegya Coffee's third-floor window](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-10-1xox7-900.webp) The rooftop has a sky staircase and sea views. The blue sky and ocean could be seen at a glance, making it a good spot for photos. The rooftop and terrace were operated as no-kids zones. ![Outdoor rooftop space with sea views at Baegya Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-11-1fhve-1200.webp) ## How extensive were the bakery and dessert options? A variety of drinks, including coffee, were available. ![Menu listing coffee and drinks at Baegya Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-12-1cbd5-900.webp) There was also a wide variety of baked goods. The display area was large, with breads spread across several cases. ![Bakery display with assorted breads at Baegya Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-13-1k2vc-900.webp) ![Spacious bakery display area at Baegya Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-14-1wxyu-900.webp) The refrigerated section had bottled drinks and desserts, and cakes were available separately. ![Refrigerated corner with bottled drinks and desserts](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-15-1g2yj-900.webp) ![Cake and dessert display area at Baegya Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-16-btkvn-900.webp) The bakery cases stretched on, making it fun to browse each item. However, a few breads had already sold out when I visited. ![Long bakery display case at Baegya Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-17-1iou8-900.webp) ![Bread display at Baegya Coffee during the visit](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-18-qhkzx-900.webp) ## How did the bread and drinks I tried taste, and what did they cost? I chose a pollack roe baguette, an injeolmi (roasted soybean powder) croissant, an iced Americano, and hot milk tea. ![Bread, coffee, and milk tea ordered at Baegya Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-19-q0w8k-900.webp) ### What did the pollack roe baguette and injeolmi croissant taste like? The pollack roe baguette was ₩5,800. It was quite large, evenly coated with sauce, and topped with roasted seaweed. ![Pollack roe baguette with sauce and seaweed](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-20-f1d6u-900.webp) It was filled with pollack roe. The outside was crisp and the inside chewy, and my boyfriend especially liked it. ![Inside of Baegya Coffee's pollack roe baguette](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-21-1xsgt-900.webp) The injeolmi croissant was ₩4,900. It was generously covered in soybean powder, sweet and nutty, with a crisp yet chewy texture. ![Injeolmi croissant topped with soybean powder](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-22-13nr7-900.webp) When I cut it open, there was cream and chapssaltteok (glutinous rice cake) inside, with red bean paste in the rice cake. I particularly enjoyed this bread and would like to buy it again next time. ![Injeolmi croissant cross-section with cream and rice cake](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-23-rm5xn-900.webp) ### What were the milk tea and iced Americano like? The hot milk tea was ₩6,300. It had a soft, nutty milk flavor with a subtle black tea aroma, and I enjoyed it more than I expected. The iced Americano was ₩5,500; its nutty flavor made it an easy, straightforward drink to enjoy. ![Drinks enjoyed with bread at Baegya Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view-24-1psc5-900.webp) ## What did I enjoy most on my return visit? Even on a return visit, the best part was the sea view directly in front of me. The café is large with varied seating, so it was fairly comfortable even with a number of people around. The second floor was busier when I visited, but the first floor was relatively quiet, while on the third floor I could enjoy bread and drinks with an open sea view. ## Where it is - Baegya Coffee (백야커피) (백야커피) - 607 Haean-ro, 1st–3rd floors, Gangneung-si, Gangwon Special Self-Governing Province, South Korea - 강원특별자치도 강릉시 해안로 607 1~3층 - 37.8115563, 128.8990465 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%B0%B1%EC%95%BC%EC%BB%A4%ED%94%BC/@37.8115563,128.8990465,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@afternoon-brew/baekya-coffee-gyeongpo-ocean-view/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
