Gimhae bakery café with glass-wall views and croissants: Yu Yu Yu

A large café stop at the end of our Gimhae trip

We stopped by Yu Yu Yu (유유유) while looking for somewhere to take a quick break before heading home from our Gimhae trip! We wanted to wind down with a leisurely cup of coffee at the end, so I looked up cafés in Gimhae and decided to visit because it was large, had a lovely view, and offered a wide variety of baked goods.

As you would expect from a popular choice for people looking for a large café in Gimhae, everything from the parking to the space itself felt comfortably roomy.

A spacious parking lot and a charming exterior

The parking lot was really spacious, so it was easy to visit by car. There were two buildings, and it looked as though expansion work on one of them was nearly finished.

The entrance was decorated so charmingly that the cute atmosphere came through even before we went in. It is also a dog-friendly café, so I imagine plenty of people visit with their pups too 🐶

A dog-friendly first floor and outdoor tables

Since the first floor has a dog-friendly area, that is useful to keep in mind when visiting, and there were tables outside as well. Once inside, the first thing that caught my eye was the wonderfully open view!

The glass walls let you look out at the scenery, making it a nice place to linger without feeling boxed in. There were quite a lot of tables, including an area on one side that looked great for groups. On a nice day, having coffee at one of the outdoor tables would be lovely too.

Second-floor glass-wall views and plentiful seating

When we went up to the second floor, the space felt even larger. There were so many tables that it looked perfectly suitable for visiting with several people, and the view through the glass walls made it a relaxing place to sit and gaze outside.

There were window seats throughout, so you could choose a spot to suit the mood you wanted, and the whole place felt neatly kept.

High chairs were available too, so it looked convenient for families. It also seemed like a good choice when several people are looking for a Gimhae café for a group gathering or family meal.

A varied bakery, from salt bread to cakes

And then there is the bakery, something you cannot leave out at Yu Yu Yu! There were honestly more bakery items than I expected 🥐 From all kinds of salt bread to sandwiches, cakes, and tarts, there was a great selection of desserts to enjoy simply with coffee.

Our decaf coffee, ginger tea, and croissant

The counter had a range of drinks on offer, including coffee.

• Decaf iced Americano
• Ginger tea
• Croissant

A clean, easy-drinking decaf iced Americano

The decaf iced Americano was clean and easy to drink. Since we visited in the afternoon, caffeine felt like a bit much, so I ordered decaf; it was perfect for sipping while we relaxed ☕️

Ginger tea for a warm little break

The ginger tea was nice and warm for taking a little break, and we had a croissant alongside the coffee too.

A crisp croissant that paired beautifully with coffee

It is a nice spot for dropping in during a busy itinerary to enjoy drinks and baked goods. The croissant was crisp and delicious too. It went really well with the coffee! Like us, you may find it a good place to relax at the end of a day out in Gimhae.

In particular, the spacious parking lot, abundant seating, and view through the glass walls made it look convenient for visiting with several people.

If you are looking for a sizable café in Gimhae, or want to enjoy coffee and baked goods at a Gimhae café with a nice view, it is worth visiting at least once. True to its large-café status, the space was broad enough to stay for a while without feeling cramped, and there were so many bakery choices that next time I would like to arrive a little earlier and look around at more breads.
