It’s surprisingly hard to find a place that sells properly chewy, delicious doughnuts, so I’ll tell you in detail why these surprised me. ## Inside: a spacious café spread over two floors ![Interior of Otters Jisan Saetgang Main Branch, extending to the second floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-02-s9f4n-900.webp) ![Otters café seating with spacious tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-03-2slsb-900.webp) ![Otters interior space suited to family and friends’ gatherings](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-04-1g18m-900.webp) ![Otters seating with tables in a range of sizes](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-05-13gzh-900.webp) Otters Jisan Saetgang Main Branch (오터스 지산샛강 본점), the Gumi bakery café, is reaaally spacious. The café itself is big and it has a second floor too, so families and groups of friends can all sit comfortably, haha. Even the regular tables are large enough for three people, and there’s a huge variety, including tables for four and eight. There were also floor-seating tables, which are especially handy when you come with children. ## Inside facilities, including a photo booth and nursing room ![Otters photo booth and photo zone for souvenir pictures](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-06-1wewi-900.webp) ![Otters interior facilities with orange décor](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-07-10ftv-900.webp) ![Otters convenience facilities, including a nursing room and self-service corner](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-08-flx1n-900.webp) ![Otters interior space decorated in bright orange](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-09-ijrwp-900.webp) There’s a photo booth for souvenir pictures, a photo zone, a nursing room, and a self-service corner too! It really felt like they’d put a lot of thought into making the place easy and comfortable to use. The bright orange interior photographs so beautifully, and it’s incredibly cheerful and pretty in person too! ## The menu and bakery display ![Otters drink menu for coffee, smoothies, and ade](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-10-46e2u-900.webp) ![Otters dessert and bakery menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-11-1wkbn-1200.webp) ![Otters breads displayed in cases](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-12-n7jex-900.webp) ![Otters breads hygienically displayed under plastic covers](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-13-1h05j-900.webp) ![Otters seasonal drinks and dessert menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-14-145ud-900.webp) As you may have guessed from the size of the café, the drink and dessert selection is really varied too. From basic coffee to smoothies, iced tea, ade, and seasonal drinks! Whoever comes along can choose something they like, haha! One memorable detail was how hygienic the bakery display was: all the breads were either inside cases or covered in plastic!! So many places leave bread sitting out, so I was really impressed. ## The doughnuts, hot dog, and drinks I ordered ![Doughnuts and drinks on a paper-lined tray](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-15-sb4va-900.webp) Let me introduce the drinks and desserts I ordered. There was even paper lining the tray, and you can feel once again that they pay attention to hygiene. ![Otters milk cream doughnut filled with cream](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-16-bpjwf-900.webp) ![Otters milk cream doughnut with a chewy texture](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-17-1t1bs-900.webp) ### Milk cream doughnut Seriously... doesn’t this doughnut look like it has “I’m delicious!!” written all over it? A lot of doughnuts have that floury smell and turn out dry, you know...? But the doughnuts at Otters, the Gumi bakery café, had absolutely no floury smell. The chewy texture was just sooo good..! To me, they were even tastier than brands like Dun*. And can you see the cream inside...? It’s packed full. It was nicely sweet and smooth too. If you go to Otters, please make sure you get a doughnut. Please trust me. Looking at the photos now, haha, I want another one. ![Otters crème brûlée doughnut with a brûléed coating](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-18-1kiay-900.webp) ### Crème brûlée doughnut This one looked incredible too... It has a crème brûlée-style coating over the doughnut, you know? When you take a big bite, it makes this crackly crunch sound... How can a doughnut make that sound...? The sweet, crisp texture was completely my kind of thing. I’d have it again next time, haha. If you like sweet treats, you’ll like this. ![Otters New York hot dog with a large sausage](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-19-1c4p0-900.webp) ![Otters New York hot dog with mustard sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-20-67zmd-900.webp) ### New York hot dog It had been a while since I’d seen a bakery selling hot dogs, so I chose one! The sausage was big, snappy, and tasty, and its signature mustard sauce went so well with it! They even warmed it up a little for me. Don’t you love places that warm up the bread? (Otters also has a microwave available!) ![Otters autumn peanut latte in a character cup](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-21-umsmn-900.webp) ![Otters iced Americano that pairs well with doughnuts](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-22-cbz83-900.webp) ### Peanut latte and iced Americano Now let me show you the drinks. The Otters characters printed on the cups and tableware were cute too. The peanut latte, a new autumn menu item, had a subtle, nutty peanut aroma and flavor. And the iced Americano—what more is there to say? It went so well with the doughnuts. The beans had a nutty flavor too. An Americano really is the better match for doughnuts! ## Parking, service, and location ![The spacious parking lot at Otters Jisan Saetgang Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-23-5ox3o-900.webp) ![Parking spaces at Otters Jisan Saetgang Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut-24-1iosj-900.webp) Look at the parking lot at this Gumi bakery café, Otters, haha. It’s seriously spacious, so visit without worrying. And it’s nice that they’re open every day, right? What stood out most was how thoughtfully every detail had been set up for guests’ comfort, and all the staff were kind, which made it even better. I’ll be back for doughnuts too. It’s close to both Gumi Station and Gumi IC, so it’s convenient no matter where in Gumi you’re coming from! ## Where it is - Otters Jisan Saetgang Main Branch (오터스 지산샛강 본점) - 11 Seonsan-daero, Gumi-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do, South Korea - 경상북도 구미시 선산대로 11 2동 - 36.1311372, 128.3440247 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%98%A4%ED%84%B0%EC%8A%A4%20%EC%A7%80%EC%82%B0%EC%83%9B%EA%B0%95%20%EB%B3%B8%EC%A0%90/@36.1311372,128.3440247,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@daegu-saucer-route/gumi-otters-bakery-cafe-chewy-donut/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
