Four-flavor Quattro Wave pizza in one pie, Cheongju: Cheese Wave

In short

Cheese Wave Cheongju Terminal Branch is an American-style pizza restaurant on Pungnyeon-ro near Cheongju Terminal and Connect Hyundai in Cheongju, Chungbuk. The Quattro Wave (₩28,400) packs four flavors — bacon cheddar cheese, pepperoni, sundried shrimp, and sweet potato — into one pizza, each cut cleared thanks to a thin, non-cloying edge. Parking is tight with only 1-2 roadside spots beside the store, so taking the bus or parking at the mart across the street is the better call.

Great news for Cheongju pizza lovers!! Cheese Wave has landed in Cheongju~~ I'd heard it has serious Instagram vibes and the pizza tastes insane too, so I went in with high hopes — and yep, it lived up to them!!!! Let me introduce Cheese Wave Cheongju Terminal Branch.

Where do you park?

Parking here is honestly a nightmare.. it's near the terminal, so I'd really recommend taking the bus ㅠ Right next to Cheese Wave they cleared a no-parking zone so you can fit one or two cars. Also, apparently there's no enforcement after 6pm. I just parked at the Lotte Mart across the street and did some grocery shopping. But wow, parking fees there have gone up too.. you need to spend ₩30,000 just to get 2 hours of parking settled..^^

Two flavors not enough? The Quattro Wave

There are so many pizza varieties~~ You can go with Half and Half (from ₩21,900) and pick two flavors you're craving! But if two isn't enough for you? Don't worry! There's the cleverly designed Quattro Wave (₩28,400) for those left wanting more.

Perfect from looks to taste — a pizza of a lifetime

The crust thickness is just right and the toppings are piled on generously!! I really love pizza and go around trying different places, but this one is genuinely delicious~ pizza's been on point lately ㅋㅋㅋ!!

There's barely any edge crust! A lot of people don't eat the edge anyway, but since it's thin here, it's not off-putting and I cleared all four slices of each flavor.

With the ingredients loaded on generously, the rich cheese flavor and fresh toppings came together beautifully. Cheese, I love you ㅠ the salty cheese fills your whole mouth.

If you didn't drive, please drink a beer for me........

The sundried shrimp pizza has plump, springy shrimp and tangy sundried tomatoes that feel like they reset your palate! Perfect to eat partway through.

Still, my favorite is the sweet potato~~~ the sweet potato mousse completes the sweet-and-salty combo.

The cups are so cute too ㅋㅋㅋ

It's all crowd-pleasing combinations with basically no downside, so when you can't decide or a group has different tastes, this one pizza solves everything! Don't agonize over picking between different pizzas — I strongly recommend enjoying variety with the Quattro Wave. Or pick two flavors you're into and order Half and Half.

If you're looking for a great-vibe, delicious pizza place near Cheongju Terminal, enjoying freshly baked pizza and a beer in this hip, America-like interior is pure healing~~~ With menu items that please every palate, it's also a great spot for a date or a gathering!! Fill your evening with happiness with some chewy, richly flavored pizza tonight.
