On a weekday afternoon visit, the matcha ribbon pastry cost 6,500 won and an americano 4,800 won; cut open, the pastry held a generous layer of cream, and the crisp crust tore apart along its layers. With outlets at the seats and a terrace out front, Reelbakers works just as well for laptop work as for catching up with friends. ## Good to know - **Hours**: Daily 08:00–22:00 (last order 21:30) - **Americano**: 4,800 won - **Matcha ribbon**: 6,500 won - **Parking**: Mechanical parking in the building for up to 2 hours; street parking possible on weekdays 11:30–2:00 and after 6pm - **Getting there**: Tanbang Station on the subway, or bus 105 to the Hanuri Apartment stop, then a 1-minute walk - **Seating**: Many tables for 2–4, bar seats and a terrace - **Pets**: Not allowed indoors, welcome on the terrace *as written by the visitor on Sep 21, 2026* I can get to Tanbang-dong quickly by bus from home, and I used to come here a lot as a kid, so it's a really familiar neighborhood to me. This time I heard about a real bakery hotspot in Tanbang-dong, so I went to check out Reelbakers!!! ## What kind of café is Reelbakers? Reelbakers is a one-of-a-kind café in Daejeon!!! ❌Not a chain!!❌ If you're visiting Daejeon from out of town, this is a must-stop! ## Reelbakers hours, directions and parking Reelbakers is open daily from 08:00 to 22:00, with last order at 21:30. If you're taking the subway, get off at Tanbang Station. I took bus 105 and got off at the Hanwoori Apartment stop — it's about a 1-minute walk from there, so it seems pretty convenient to reach by public transit!! The building has mechanical parking available!! (up to 2 hours only) Aside from that, roadside parking is possible on weekdays from 11:30 to 2:00 and after 6:00pm!!! Seems like it'd also be a nice quick lunch spot for people working near City Hall Station, no?? There are two doors here~~ Pets aren't allowed inside, but you can have them with you on the terrace! I left mine tied up by the parking spot for a bit…!! This kind of thing feels totally Australian, love it ## Inside Reelbakers: the Australian-style interior ![Interior view of Reelbakers](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-01-9v033-900.webp) The interior is super pleasant, spacious, and clean. It's got that vibe of coming in on a weekend morning to relax and enjoy good bakery goods and coffee??? A café that's great for reading, chatting, or working on your laptop 🥰😍😍 ![Open, spacious seating at Reelbakers café](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-02-1fsqo-900.webp) ![Interior design details at Reelbakers](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-03-qxv06-900.webp) Reelbakers says their goal is to create a comfortable space, inspired by an experience in Australia, that people of all ages and genders can enjoy. Maybe that's why I saw such a mix of men and women visiting~~ (Some cafés are packed with only women, you know….haha) I ate really good coffee and bread when I was in Australia, so I went in with high expectations haha ![Australian-inspired space at Reelbakers](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-04-137q5-900.webp) ![Inside Reelbakers café](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-05-1lxyr-900.webp) I was surprised there were quite a lot of people even though I went on a weekday!!! It really must be a hotspot haha ![2–4 person table seating at Reelbakers](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-06-zbnpk-900.webp) ![Window seat good for laptop work at Reelbakers](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-07-1i8n6-900.webp) ![Bar seating and terrace at Reelbakers](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-08-1lqjh-900.webp) There are lots of 2- to 4-person tables scattered around the place! I was working on my laptop and snapped a photo because the view was so pretty… there's a bar seating area too. And there's a terrace like this too!!! Perfect for eating outside on a nice day. Or I'd recommend this spot if you brought your pet along~~ The restroom inside is clean too. ## Reelbakers menu and the bread on the shelves ![Drinks menu board at Reelbakers](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-09-ja6ih-900.webp) Here's the menu :) ![Bakery display case at Reelbakers](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-10-9j5dx-900.webp) ![Assorted breads on display at Reelbakers](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-11-1j6pv-900.webp) ![Pastries on display at Reelbakers](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-12-19vje-900.webp) ![Croissant corner at Reelbakers](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-13-19z7p-900.webp) ![Bakery display case at Reelbakers](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-14-tpbxk-900.webp) True to being a bakery hotspot in Tanbang-dong, there are so many kinds of baked goods!!! The croissants and salt bread all looked so delicious. ![Croissants and salt bread at Reelbakers](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-15-1um7f-900.webp) ![Salt bread display at Reelbakers](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-16-4mo89-900.webp) And the wagyu salt bread I'd only heard about by word of mouth!!! I was so curious about that one too. There were so many things I wanted to eat that I stood there deliberating for a while. Check the video for the full menu details 😊 ![Bread on parchment paper at Reelbakers](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-17-1npyz-900.webp) You put whatever bread you want on a piece of parchment paper like this, and just tell them when you check out. ## How the matcha ribbon (6,500 won) and americano (4,800 won) tasted - Americano — ₩4,800 - Matcha Ribbon — ₩6,500 ![Matcha ribbon pastry and americano at Reelbakers](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-18-37m6p-1200.webp) I love matcha tea… and it's shaped like a ribbon, which is so cute, I couldn't not pick it. Cute, right?? ![Ribbon-shaped matcha pastry, the Matcha Ribbon](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-19-1rai3-900.webp) ![Cream filling revealed in a sliced Matcha Ribbon](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-20-1myjx-900.webp) ![Cream-filled interior of the Matcha Ribbon](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-21-s42ro-900.webp) I thought it was just a pastry, so I didn't expect this much cream, but when I cut it with a knife, there was seriously a generous amount of cream!! Really sweet. The bread itself was insane too. Crisp on the outside and it tore apart along its layers so nicely. This was genuinely a proper bakery hotspot… a must-visit in Daejeon 😍 The americano was really nutty and delicious too. Not much acidity, and it paired so well with the bread. Honestly, this is exactly my taste, so I think I'll order an americano again next time too!!! ![Bread and coffee on a table at Reelbakers](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-22-1ii9w-900.webp) ![An oven set up in a corner of Reelbakers](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-23-1stxb-900.webp) Surprisingly, they even have an oven set up here. ![New heart-shaped pistachio pastry](https://img.superchart.com/images/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe-24-4gi2g-900.webp) My friend had the new heart-shaped pistachio pastry, and the color was really pretty with plenty of cream packed inside. She said it was delicious!!! > A place where comfort blooms fresh every morning — feel the real thing at Reel Even the receipt has such nice vibes. Honestly a café I'd want to come to every single morning. ## Is Reelbakers good for laptop work? There was an outlet right next to the seat I sat at, so it was great for bringing a laptop and getting work done. They also have a Naver review event going on!! I really wanted to win the gift certificate, but… sadly I came in 7th place and got a pen instead. But the pen was cute so I was happy with it. These little events made it fun. ## Worth a visit near Tanbang Station and Daejeon City Hall? I had no idea there was a bakery hotspot like this in Tanbang-dong. Next time I definitely want to try the salt bread!! It looked so good. After trying this matcha ribbon, my trust in this place shot way up. If you're looking for a great-vibe spot near Tanbang-dong and City Hall Station, I recommend Reelbakers. ## Where it is - Reelbakers (릴베이커스) - 76 Munjeong-ro, 1st floor, Seo-gu, Daejeon, South Korea - 대전광역시 서구 문정로 76 1층 - 36.3464657, 127.38766 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%A6%B4%EB%B2%A0%EC%9D%B4%EC%BB%A4%EC%8A%A4/@36.3464657,127.38766,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@eunhaeng-window-seat/reel-bakers-daejeon-matcha-ribbon-cafe/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
