## Where to eat brunch in Gwangalli

Looking for a place to have brunch from the morning in Gwangalli, I ended up at Famous Benny Gwangalli Branch! Personally I love sleeping in on my days off, but weirdly I always end up waking up early haha ₍₍ ◝( ◉ ‸ ◉ )◟ ⁾⁾

This place opens from 8am, so it was great to visit on a day when I was up and moving early! I'd especially recommend it to anyone visiting Gwangalli looking for breakfast, or anyone wanting a light brunch before work! ☕️

## The vibe at Famous Benny Gwangalli Branch

The first thing that caught my eye walking in was how beautifully the sunlight filled the space 🌿

It's spread across two floors, and the overall wood-toned interior gives it a warm, calm atmosphere.

The space itself photographed so nicely that I found myself wanting to snap pictures everywhere 📷✨ It seemed like a good spot to bring a laptop and work solo, and there were also comfortable seats for groups having brunch together.

What I ordered at Famous Benny Gwangalli Branch: French toast and grilled mushroom toast ( ˶˙ᵕ˙˶ )♡

![French toast and grilled mushroom toast, two plates](https://img.superchart.com/images/gwangalli-famous-benny-brunch-two-toasts/gwangalli-famous-benny-brunch-two-toasts-10-oesxu-900.webp)

## How does the French toast taste?

French toast first! The visuals alone almost feel unfair haha. Torched banana on top, plus nuts, cranberries, and blueberries scattered on colorfully — it made me happy just looking at it 🫐🍌

There were even flowers placed on top, so the plating had serious Instagram energy...🌷 Taste-wise, the sweet toast was brightened by the fruit's tartness, and the nuts added a nutty crunch — the sweet-and-savory combo worked really well!

I usually get sick of French toast quickly if it's too sweet, but eating it with the fruit made it lighter than I expected. If you like a sweet brunch, I'd especially recommend pairing it with coffee! ☕️🤍

## Grilled mushroom toast: light but filling

And then the grilled mushroom toast! It comes with mushrooms, egg, and sourdough, and it felt much lighter but more filling than the French toast 🍳🍄

The sourdough's plain flavor combined with the soft egg and the nutty savoriness of the grilled mushrooms made for a solid combination. If a heavy breakfast feels like too much but you still want something filling, this one fits well :)

Placed side by side, the two dishes looked so good color-wise that I spent a while just taking photos haha 📸 Brunch is about the taste, sure, but pretty plating also has to make it onto the Instagram story ₍ᐢ..ᐢ₎♡

### Pets welcome too

One more thing I personally loved! Famous Benny Gwangalli Branch is dog-friendly, so if you're out for a Gwangalli outing with your pup, keep this place in mind 🐶🤍

## Why the 8am opening was so useful

Overall, it was a satisfying spot for a light morning brunch. I especially liked that it's open from 8am — surprisingly useful if you're starting your day early in Gwangalli haha.

*맛있는건 그릇 설거지 해줘야함 ㅎ_ㅎ*

If you're visiting Gwangalli and want to start your day a bit earlier than everyone else, or you want to enjoy coffee and brunch leisurely from the morning, or you're just looking for a quiet café to work alone, this is a Gwangalli café I'd recommend! ☕️🌿

More than anything, the wood interior and the natural light made the atmosphere comfortable to sit in for a while. You know those days when you don't want to rush through a café and leave — you just want to eat brunch slowly while chatting (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧

### What I'll order next time

Personally, I think I'll pick French toast on days I'm craving something sweet, and grilled mushroom toast on days I want something light but filling! ✅ (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵)و ♡ If you want a relaxed morning in Gwangalli, I'd recommend having brunch at Famous Benny Gwangalli Branch and then heading toward the Gwangalli beach side to browse the little shops 🌊

Sipping coffee in the morning sunlight and finishing with a delicious brunch made the whole day feel a little prettier. Next time I want to try other menu items, so whenever brunch crosses my mind, I'll probably run right back here~~ ₍ᐢ. ̫.ᐢ₎♡
