I went to Hands Coffee Dongchon Resort Branch (핸즈커피 동촌유원지점) at Dongchon Resort for coffee and bread. Its address is 5-6 Hyodong-ro 6-gil, Dong-gu, Daegu, and the hours listed in the original post were 10:00 AM to 11:00 PM daily. ![Hands Coffee storefront at Dongchon Resort in Daegu](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-01-3b7ab-900.webp) ![Hands Coffee Dongchon Resort Branch visited for coffee and bread](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-02-1tohh-966.webp) The café operated across three floors, from the second through fourth floors. I ordered on the second floor, then could sit on whichever floor I wanted. An elevator and stairs connected the floors, and the second floor also had plenty of spacious, comfortable seating. ## What was on the menu besides waffles? There were three brunch sets. While ordering, I saw many people having brunch served on two-tier trays. I chose coffee and waffles this time, and there was a wide range of drinks, including coffee, Dutch coffee, tea, milk drinks, and fruit drinks. ![Various drink menu information at Hands Coffee Dongchon Resort Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-03-1eumd-966.webp) ![Menu information in Hands Coffee Dongchon Resort Branch's ordering area](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-04-1gwb9-966.webp) ![Drink and dessert information area at Hands Coffee Dongchon Resort Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-05-19zwx-966.webp) Next to the second-floor ordering area was a display where I could see and choose cakes and waffles in person. There was also a kiosk at the front. ![Cake and waffle display beside Hands Coffee's ordering area](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-06-wk2wv-966.webp) ![Dessert selection area at Hands Coffee Dongchon Resort Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-07-1y30l-966.webp) They also sold a set with old-style bingsu (shaved ice), Hands House Brunch, and two long blacks. I did not try the brunch myself. ## Where are the best seats for Kumho River views? After ordering, I looked around for a seat, starting on the fourth floor. It had indoor seating and an outdoor terrace, with Dongchon Resort and the Kumho River visible in front. The view improved on the higher floors, and a cool breeze made the terrace pleasant on the day I visited. ![Rooftop terrace at Hands Coffee Dongchon Resort Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-08-1drdo-966.webp) ![Area around Hands Coffee Dongchon Resort Branch's terrace](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-09-1hm1q-966.webp) ![Hands Coffee terrace overlooking Dongchon Resort](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-10-a03h0-966.webp) ![Upper-floor terrace at Hands Coffee Dongchon Resort Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-11-17t33-966.webp) ![View toward Dongchon Resort from Hands Coffee's terrace](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-12-4k7hj-966.webp) ![Hands Coffee terrace with Kumho River views](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-13-1vtd1-966.webp) One side of the fourth floor also had floor seating along the windows. The outdoor view was visible from there as well. Overall, the tables were well spaced, so it was comfortable for a quiet conversation. ![Window seat with a view at Hands Coffee Dongchon Resort Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-14-1pd07-966.webp) ![Floor seating by the window at Hands Coffee Dongchon Resort Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-15-1813x-966.webp) ## What was the third-floor seating like? The third floor had different chair and table arrangements at each seat. It felt calm and comfortable, making it a good place to rest while looking out at the view. There also seemed to be plenty of tables and seats. ![Spacious indoor seating at Hands Coffee Dongchon Resort Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-16-1ftel-966.webp) ![Hands Coffee interior with various chairs and tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-17-1skzw-966.webp) ## How were the chocolate banana waffle and cream roll bread? I first received an iced Americano, apple juice, and cream roll bread. The roll had plenty of whipped cream, and its soft cream went well with the coffee. ![Drinks and desserts ordered at Hands Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-18-1r4tq-1200.webp) The chocolate banana waffle came with a glutinous rice waffle, banana, and Häagen-Dazs chocolate ice cream. The banana was soft, and unlike an ordinary waffle, the waffle had a chewy texture. I also had it with whipped cream and chocolate chips. ![Glutinous rice waffle with banana and chocolate ice cream](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-19-1m7e2-966.webp) ![Chocolate banana glutinous rice waffle at Hands Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-20-10noy-966.webp) ![Banana waffle with whipped cream and chocolate chips](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-21-qn2iu-966.webp) I liked cutting the waffle and dipping it into the soft whipped cream. The chocolate ice cream was also good, and it paired well with coffee. ![Dessert enjoyed with coffee at Hands Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-22-1o5pu-966.webp) ![Dessert with whipped cream sampled at Hands Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-23-dibsj-966.webp) The cream roll bread was soft not only in the cream but also in the bread itself. On this visit, the Kumho River view, spacious seating, and chewy waffle with coffee were what I remembered most. ![Cream-filled roll bread eaten at Hands Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle-24-15kfv-966.webp) ## 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-window-seat/handscoffee-dongchon-river-view-waffle/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
