I had an iced long black, a smoothie, ice cream, and Basque cheesecake; the lightly acidic coffee with a subtle chocolate finish suited me, though window seats filled as soon as they opened up. ## Good to know - **Address**: 대구 동구 효동로6길 5-6 핸즈커피 동촌유원지점 - **Hours**: Daily 10:00 AM–11:00 PM at the time of the original post; listed as open year-round - **Parking**: Spacious dedicated parking lot - **Space and access**: Floors 2–4 and a rooftop, with a café-only elevator - **Iced long black**: ₩5,000 - **Blueberry ice cream**: ₩6,800 - **White sangria smoothie**: ₩6,500 - **House-made Basque cheesecake**: ₩6,500 - **Brunch**: A double-tray brunch set with pasta, salad, and jambon-beurre was available but not tried on this visit *as written by the visitor on Sep 6, 2026* On a weekend afternoon, I had drinks and desserts at Hands Coffee Dongchon Resort Branch.

After passing the roundabout in the center of Dongchon Resort, I went uphill and saw the red-brick building. Its elevated position gave it an open view over the surrounding area. ![Hands Coffee building on a Dongchon Resort hill](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert-03-1eumg-650.webp) ![Hands Coffee building and surrounding scenery](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert-04-1osx0-650.webp) The café extends from the second through fourth floors and up to the rooftop, and its dedicated parking lot was spacious. Along with the stairs, there was a café-only elevator, and I saw many families visiting. ![Café seating area at Hands Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert-05-1tttn-650.webp) ![Area for moving between floors at Hands Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert-06-ex5lq-650.webp) ![Interior café space at Hands Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert-07-r6gv7-650.webp) ![Spacious café area at Hands Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert-08-1klkh-650.webp) The address is 5-6 Hyodong-ro 6-gil, Dong-gu, Daegu. At the time of the original post, hours were listed as 10:00 AM to 11:00 PM daily, open year-round. ## What were the interior and window seats like? The antique-style interior felt cozy. I wanted to sit by the wide windows overlooking the view, but whenever a seat opened up, another guest quickly took it. ![Antique-style interior at Hands Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert-09-l8loj-650.webp) ![Indoor seating at Hands Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert-10-pfcq9-650.webp) ![Seats by wide windows at Hands Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert-11-1jg14-650.webp) ![Window-side seating and interior at Hands Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert-12-f1x5x-650.webp) ![Seating near wide windows at Hands Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert-13-1a33f-650.webp) ## How much were the drinks and desserts I ordered? I ordered two drinks and two desserts that day. These are the prices recorded in the original post. - Iced long black: ₩5,000 - Blueberry ice cream: ₩6,800 - White sangria smoothie: ₩6,500 - House-made Basque cheesecake: ₩6,500 ![Drinks and desserts ordered at Hands Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert-14-y508x-650.webp) ### Was the white sangria smoothie very tart? I was in the mood for a refreshing drink, so I chose the white sangria smoothie. At the time of my visit, it was introduced as Hands Coffee's 20th-anniversary summer seasonal menu. ![White sangria smoothie at Hands Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert-15-1iowi-650.webp) ![Hands Coffee summer white sangria smoothie](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert-16-975zm-650.webp) ![White sangria smoothie with a green-grape base](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert-17-1nw7d-650.webp) This smoothie has a green-grape base with pear and lemon, topped with sliced lemon and peppermint leaves. It was finely blended and smooth to drink; the tartness was balanced by sweetness, so it did not feel overwhelming. ![Cold drink and dessert at Hands Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert-18-9dhel-650.webp) ### What did the blueberry ice cream taste like? This menu item was soft ice cream made with organic Sangha Farm milk, topped with blueberry jam and frozen blueberries. The milk flavor came through strongly, and the texture was soft and creamy. ![Blueberry soft ice cream at Hands Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert-19-1ao1f-650.webp) ![Ice cream and coffee ordered at Hands Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert-20-1gp4x-650.webp) ### Is the long black suitable if you prefer low-acidity coffee? The iced long black had low acidity and a nutty aroma. It left a subtle chocolate note without a burnt taste, with body but a clean finish. It suited my taste because I do not enjoy strongly acidic coffee. ![Iced long black at Hands Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert-21-11x6b-650.webp) ### Did the Basque cheesecake go well with coffee? The house-made Basque cheesecake had a rich cream-cheese flavor. Its soft, moist texture was gently sweet and nutty, making it a good match for the iced long black. ![House-made Basque cheesecake at Hands Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert-22-etmt4-650.webp) ![Basque cheesecake eaten at Hands Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert-23-w8p2y-650.webp) ## Is brunch available too? At the time of my visit, the Dongchon Resort Branch had a double-tray brunch set sold only at this branch, with pasta, salad, and jambon-beurre. I only had drinks and desserts this time, but I would like to return for brunch when I have more time. ## Where it is - Hands Coffee Dongchon Resort Branch (핸즈커피 동촌유원지점) (핸즈커피 동촌유원지점) - 5-6 Hyodong-ro 6-gil, Dong-gu, Daegu, South Korea - 대구광역시 동구 효동로6길 5-6 핸즈커피 동촌유원지점 - 35.8821099, 128.6480086 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%95%B8%EC%A6%88%EC%BB%A4%ED%94%BC%20%EB%8F%99%EC%B4%8C%EC%9C%A0%EC%9B%90%EC%A7%80%EC%A0%90/@35.8821099,128.6480086,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@cafe-lights/handscoffee-dongchon-view-coffee-dessert/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
