Mountain-view café in Gimhae: kaya butter croissant at Yu Yu Yu
In short
Yu Yu Yu is a large two-floor bakery café on Inje-ro in Gimhae, Gyeongnam. From breads baked and sold the same day, the writer picked a kaya butter croissant, a strawberry-filled scone and an Earl Grey tigré to pair with the signature U Cream Latte and an Americano, then looked out at the green mountains through Yu Yu Yu's floor-to-ceiling windows and visited the scooter and streetlamp photo zone outside. With the first floor open to dogs, Yu Yu Yu is an easy Gimhae café for a slow hour with a pet.

I was looking for a nice-vibe café in Gimhae and ended up visiting Yu Yu Yu Café.
A clean, stylish space with great coffee and same-day-made bakery items — this was a Gimhae café where it was easy to relax and take your time.
What I liked most was that green natural scenery spreads out around the café, so you can enjoy the view while sipping your coffee. 🌿

Inside Yu Yu Yu: seating and mountain views through the glass wall
Yu Yu Yu is a large café spanning the 1st and 2nd floors on Inje-ro in Gimhae, Gyeongnam. Walking in, the overall vibe was clean yet comfortable.
The space is spacious with a variety of seating, so it looked great for chatting with friends, for a couple's date, or for visiting with family.
In particular, thanks to the natural scenery visible through the floor-to-ceiling windows, sitting indoors never felt stuffy — it felt relaxed. The stylish atmosphere paired well with the natural view, making this feel like both an atmosphere spot and a view spot among Gimhae's large cafés.
Outdoor photo zone: vintage scooter and white silver grass
Yu Yu Yu Café's outdoor space is just as nicely decorated as the interior. Step outside and you'll find green mountains and trees, plus several spots worth photographing.
The area with a vintage-feel scooter and a classic streetlamp especially had its own unique atmosphere — a real photo zone. 📸
Another corner had white silver grass in bloom, which gave a nice sense of the season. It's pretty now, but I imagine that once autumn arrives, the trees and silver grass together will make an even more beautiful scene, so I'd love to come back in fall. 🍂
Same-day baking: kaya butter croissant, strawberry scone, Earl Grey tigré
At Yu Yu Yu Café you can find bakery items baked and sold the same day. Since I'd come to a café, the bakery items were a must.
There were so many kinds of bread that picking just one wasn't easy. On this day I chose
- 🥐 Kaya butter croissant
- 🍓 Strawberry-filled scone
- 🫖 Earl Grey tigré
three items in total. They were nutty and sweet — perfect with coffee — and before I knew it, tasting one after another had filled up the whole table.
If you're visiting a Gimhae bakery café, I'd recommend enjoying the bread and coffee together.
How do Yu Yu Yu's signature U Cream Latte and Americano taste?
For coffee, I ordered Yu Yu Yu's signature menu item, the U Cream Latte.
It's a drink where UUU's own nutty, smooth cream meets rich coffee, and the cream's sweet nuttiness went well with the coffee's deep flavor.
It paired even better with the sweet bakery items. Craving something clean, I also ordered an Americano, and it cut through the sweetness of the bread nicely, making it a good match for the bakery items.
Beyond the U Cream Latte, Yu Yu Yu also has other signature menu items like the U Latte, made with house-blended milk, and the U-Sim Shake, made in a handmade vanilla bean style — now I want to try those next time.
Is Yu Yu Yu dog-friendly? Yes, on the first floor
Another notable point: this is a dog-friendly café in Gimhae. In particular, the 1st floor allows dogs, making it a great space for anyone who enjoys café outings with their pet.
Since you can enjoy coffee while looking at natural scenery, it would be lovely to visit with your dog on a nice-weather day.
A new space going up next to Yu Yu Yu
While looking around, I noticed that right next to the currently operating Yu Yu Yu Café, a new building was being constructed. They haven't relocated or expanded yet, but they're preparing to expand into a larger space in the future.
I'm curious how things will change once a new space is added to the current natural, comfortable atmosphere. It was fun to think of this as a Gimhae café you can enjoy right now, while also looking forward to future changes.
Why this Gimhae café is worth a return visit in autumn
Delicious coffee and same-day-made bakery items, of course, plus
🌿 a view where you can look out at nature
- 📸 photo zones scattered throughout
- 🐶 dog-friendly 1st floor
- 🏡 a comfortable, stylish space
Since the surrounding scenery was so full of green, I imagine that once autumn deepens, there will be a whole different scene where silver grass and fall foliage mix together — a place I'd love to visit again.
If you're looking for a nice-vibe large café in Gimhae, or a Gimhae café where you can enjoy same-day-made bread alongside great coffee, spend some relaxed time at Yu Yu Yu Café. ☕🥐🌿
