# Saturday evening tteok run at Tteokmama, a Cheongju rice cake shop - By Binna (https://superchart.com/en/@chungcheong-lunchcloth/) - Written Sep 8, 2026 - Local places › Cafés › Cheongju, Chungbuk - Sponsored: This post was written as a compensated store-visit sponsorship. - English edition: https://superchart.com/en/@chungcheong-lunchcloth/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/ - Also in: [한국어](https://superchart.com/ko/@chungcheong-lunchcloth/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/index.md) ## In short Tteokmama Cheongju Yullyang Branch is a rice cake shop in Yullyang-dong, Cheongju that steams tteok fresh in a traditional siru the moment it's ordered, using only domestic rice each morning. Visiting around 6pm on a Saturday meant most menu items were sold out, but the writer still snagged the rainbow baram-tteok and ganache-filled jeolpyeon she wanted, plus her kid's pick of sareureu yugwa (crispy rice puffs), which her eldest devoured happily. For a weekend visit, go in the morning or book via Naver Reservation 3–4 days ahead to avoid the sold-out fate. ## Good to know - **Address**: 94 Gonghang-ro, 1st floor, Cheongwon-gu, Cheongju-si, Chungcheongbuk-do, South Korea (952 Yullyang-dong) - **Hours**: Daily 09:00–21:00 - **Closed**: Chuseok holiday, Sept 25–26 - **Parking**: Free parking space between Tteokmama and Cheongpungmyeongwol - **Reservation tip**: Book via Naver Reservation at least 3–4 days ahead to avoid sold-out items - **Items ordered**: Sareureu yugwa, rainbow baram-tteok, ganache jeolpyeon, iced americano *as written by the visitor on Sep 8, 2026* I was craving tteok (rice cake), so off I went to Tteokmama Cheongju Yullyang Branch. ## Location and hours of Tteokmama Cheongju Yullyang Branch - Address: 94 Gonghang-ro, Cheongwon-gu, Cheongju-si, Chungcheongbuk-do (952 Yullyang-dong, Cheongwon-gu, Cheongju-si, Chungcheongbuk-do) - Hours: Daily 09:00–21:00 - Chuseok holiday: Sept 25–26 - Parking: free parking space between Tteokmama and Cheongpungmyeongwol - Pro tip: to avoid sold-out items, reserve your menu via Naver Reservation at least 3–4 days ahead ![Exterior of Tteokmama Cheongju Yullyang Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-01-j0onv-966.webp) Tteokmama uses 100% domestic glutinous rice and non-glutinous rice every morning, steaming it fresh in a traditional siru the moment you order — it's a genuinely delicious rice cake shop! 🍡 ![Traditionally steamed tteok displayed inside the shop](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-02-zn2xh-966.webp) ![Shop space where you can enjoy tteok with drinks](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-03-16nec-966.webp) Alongside the tteok, they have a good range of tasty drinks too, so it seemed like a nice spot for tea time with your rice cakes! They also take orders for gift tteok for events, anniversaries, birthday tables, weddings, funerals and the like — just remember these need to be reserved in advance 🍡💓 ## Inside the shop and group seating Tteokmama Cheongju Yullyang Branch has quite a lot of tables, so even a group could sit comfortably! Besides the hall seating, there's also a section partitioned off with full glass walls, making it easy and relaxed to enjoy tteok with a group gathering 🤧 ## What's on the menu board? Before I show you the menu items themselves, let me show you Tteokmama Cheongju Yullyang Branch's menu board first! ![Menu board listing table-setting sets, tteok and drinks](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-04-63sr9-966.webp) There are all kinds of table-setting sets, plus a wide variety of tteok and drinks too! ![In-store notice about tteok delivery](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-05-3ey2s-966.webp) It's great that Tteokmama also delivers — they steam it fresh the moment you order and it arrives still warm! The tteok that had been sitting in the fridge was already delicious, so I can't even imagine how good the freshly steamed ones would be... ![Display shelf of colorful tteok](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-06-kri8z-966.webp) ![Display corner showing red bean siru-tteok](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-07-1cjkz-966.webp) ![Several varieties of tteok lined up side by side](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-08-l26f8-966.webp) ![Display featuring ssanghwa tea alongside tteok](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-09-1dr7b-966.webp) So many colorful, pretty tteok varieties, plus red bean siru-tteok and even ssanghwa tea! ✨ ![Menu poster on the shop wall](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-10-9is6f-m-966.webp) ![Poster describing red bean fruit chapssaltteok](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-11-1rkkk-966.webp) I gave all the menu posters on the wall a good scan too — and oh, something I regretted once I got home... I should've bought one of the cream-filled tteok too. It kept popping into my head after I got back 🥹 ### Red bean fruit chapssaltteok sets There's also red bean fruit chapssaltteok (glutinous rice cake)! ✨ Available in sets of 3, 4, and 6 pieces! The fruits include strawberry, orange, tangerine, shine muscat grape, kiwi, and apple grape, though since they're seasonal, some may change :) ![Display showing fruit chapssaltteok set options](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-12-1aj5y-966.webp) ![Section of chapssaltteok made with seasonal fruit](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-13-epa4s-966.webp) ## Does it sell out by Saturday evening? Maybe because I visited around 6pm on a Saturday, most of the menu was sold out 🥹 If you're planning a weekend visit, I'd recommend going in the morning! ![Tteok display mostly sold out on a Saturday evening](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-14-8y8wu-966.webp) ![Shelves with tteok gone and only a few items left](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-15-151q9-966.webp) ![Sold-out signage visible on the shop counter](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-16-1hyss-m-966.webp) The tteok that were still in the fridge!!! Honestly, I'd wanted to buy the rainbow baram-tteok even before I got there!!! Luckily it was still available, so I grabbed it too 🤧 I really love this kind of tteok... ♡ ![Rainbow baram-tteok displayed in the fridge](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-17-1oyqa-966.webp) ![Tteok and desserts in the refrigerated display](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-18-5bjfa-966.webp) ![A variety of tteok and desserts on display](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-19-1e225-966.webp) ![Dessert section inside the shop's fridge](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-20-g4b0p-966.webp) There were also all sorts of other tteok and dessert items! The moment my kid spotted the yugwa (crispy rice puffs), he begged me to buy it, so I picked that up too! ![Packaged sareureu yugwa chosen by the kid](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-21-2s983-966.webp) The fridge had a wide variety of cream-filled tteok. I wanted to buy one but didn't, and regretted it once I got home 🥹 ![Cream-filled tteok displayed in the fridge](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-22-11w8c-966.webp) Next time I visit, I'll have to get a cream-filled tteok and some sikhye (sweet rice punch) too!! 👍🏻 ## What we bought and how the kids reacted These are the tteok I ordered, plus the yugwa my son picked. He'd been begging for yugwa for a while now, and I really didn't want to just buy the supermarket kind... 🤣 Seeing that Tteokmama also sold yugwa gave me extra confidence, so I bought it there! Figured yugwa from a proper rice cake shop would be tastier and a bit healthier lol 👍🏻 ![Purchased rainbow baram-tteok, ganache jeolpyeon and yugwa](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-23-1jyvn-966.webp) Here's what I bought! - Sareureu yugwa - Rainbow baram-tteok - Ganache jeolpyeon - Iced americano We tried them right as we walked out, and the result... total satisfaction! My eldest already likes tteok, but he ate this even more eagerly than usual. If you love tteok, you really have to visit Tteokmama Cheongju Yullyang Branch! 🤧 ![Packaged tteok purchased from Tteokmama Cheongju Yullyang Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop-24-1f55i-1200.webp) ## Where it is - Tteokmama Cheongju Yullyang Branch (떡마마 청주율량점) - 94 Gonghang-ro, 1st floor, Cheongwon-gu, Cheongju-si, Chungcheongbuk-do, South Korea - 충청북도 청주시 청원구 공항로 94 1층 - 36.6655659, 127.4868654 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%96%A1%EB%A7%88%EB%A7%88%20%EC%B2%AD%EC%A3%BC%EC%9C%A8%EB%9F%89%EC%A0%90/@36.6655659,127.4868654,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@chungcheong-lunchcloth/cheongju-yulyang-rainbow-rice-cake-shop/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
