Chicken tender poke with citron dressing, chicken breast poke with oriental dressing, and sikhye (sweet rice drink) were packed to go — the bowls were surprisingly tall and filling, and the citron dressing cut through the fried chicken's greasiness nicely. A solid, hearty meal even while eating clean. ## Good to know - **Menu**: Chicken tender poke (citron dressing), chicken breast poke (oriental dressing), sikhye (sweet rice drink) - **Poke base**: Brown rice and lettuce base with sweet corn, red cabbage, crab meat, roasted egg, onion flakes - **Usage**: Dine-in and takeout both available - **Seating**: Generous table spacing, good for solo dining or groups *as written by the visitor on Sep 7, 2026* Today I packed up sikhye and poke bowls to go from Eopcheonri382 Chungbuk National University Branch :) ![Poke and sikhye packed to go from Eopcheonri382 Chungbuk National University Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe-01-ujxfx-900.webp) Eopcheonri382 is already a well-loved brand for its distinctive retro vibe and generous dessert sandwiches. ![Retro-style interior of Eopcheonri382 Chungbuk National University Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe-02-11nvo-900.webp) ![Café interior with dark wood-toned furniture and antique lighting](https://img.superchart.com/images/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe-03-1sslg-1200.webp) ## The mood and seating at Eopcheonri382 Chungbuk National University Branch The first thing that greets you is a warm, nostalgic interior, like visiting your grandmother's house as a kid. Dark wood-toned furniture and antique lighting fill the space with retro charm, and there's plenty to look at while you browse! One of the biggest perks is that both dine-in and takeout are handled really conveniently. Inside, the table spacing is generous and the seats are comfortable, so it's a pleasant spot to come alone during a break and eat leisurely, or to gather with friends and chat over a meal! ![Seating area with generous table spacing at Eopcheonri382 Chungbuk National University Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe-04-cg238-900.webp) ![A corner of the café decorated with retro props](https://img.superchart.com/images/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe-05-7i6cy-900.webp) ## Why it's becoming a poke go-to, plus the 'field' latte series Did you know Eopcheonri382 near Chungbuk National University has recently been rising as a go-to spot for poke among people pursuing healthier diets? By the way, besides traditional drinks like gamju (sweet rice punch) and misugaru (roasted grain powder), the 'field' latte series — drinks packed with whole fresh fruit — is hugely popular here! There's a strawberry field latte loaded with juicy strawberry chunks, a mango field latte full of sweet mango, and more — they really don't skimp on ingredients, like tipping an entire fruit field into a cup~ ![Drinks and menu spread at Eopcheonri382 Chungbuk National University Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe-06-njxmv-900.webp) ## Chicken tender poke + citron dressing The first main dish I ordered on this visit to Eopcheonri382 near Chungbuk National University was the chicken tender poke. For the dressing, I picked the citron dressing, which shows off Eopcheonri's signature refreshing charm! ![Takeout container of chicken tender poke with citron dressing](https://img.superchart.com/images/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe-07-auj3e-900.webp) The bowl has brown rice and fresh, vivid green lettuce piled underneath, surrounded by sweet corn, red cabbage, shredded crab meat, roasted egg, and onion flakes. The golden, crispy-fried chicken tenders are sliced into bite-sized pieces and heaped generously right in the center~ You might worry that fried meat could leave a greasy aftertaste, but this is where the citron dressing works its magic. ![Chicken tenders on top of brown rice and lettuce](https://img.superchart.com/images/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe-08-1lw5a-900.webp) ![Cross-section of the poke surrounded by sweet corn, red cabbage, and crab meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe-09-19nr4-900.webp) You can really feel the care put into each ingredient — at a glance it might look like a packaged single-meal poke, but it's a meal packed with genuine effort, substance, and nutrition! ![A bowl of chicken tender poke packed with ingredients](https://img.superchart.com/images/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe-10-18a39-900.webp) I drizzled the citron dressing evenly over the poke, then scooped up a big spoonful of the ingredients for a bite. The first thing I noticed was the crunch of the chicken tender, followed by the moist, savory flavor of the chicken! The pieces of meat are large, so ordering the chicken tender is genuinely satisfying. ![A big spoonful of chicken tender poke scooped up](https://img.superchart.com/images/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe-11-q7y8j-900.webp) The bowl it comes in is quite tall, so the portion was pretty substantial too! ![The tall poke bowl showing a generous portion](https://img.superchart.com/images/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe-12-1qauo-900.webp) The bright, fragrant citrus scent of citron cuts right through the chicken tender's greasiness! I wanted to enjoy the brown rice even more, so I mixed in some furikake I already had at home, which made it even tastier~ ![Brown rice poke mixed with furikake](https://img.superchart.com/images/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe-13-4ru98-900.webp) ## Chicken breast poke + oriental dressing The second dish I tried was the combination that's a perfect choice for anyone managing their diet — chicken breast poke with oriental dressing. ![Chicken breast poke with oriental dressing](https://img.superchart.com/images/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe-14-1ane8-900.webp) The savory, deeply umami oriental dressing gets swirled generously over the top. Made with a soy sauce and sesame base, it has a rich, nutty flavor that pairs really well with the mild taste of chicken breast! Scooping up the dressing-soaked brown rice and chicken breast together felt like eating a hearty, comforting Korean soy-sauce bibimbap — familiar and easy on the stomach~ ![Chicken breast and brown rice soaked in dressing](https://img.superchart.com/images/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe-15-1kipz-900.webp) Just like the chicken tender poke, this one has chicken breast piled high on the same colorful, generous vegetable base. People usually think of chicken breast as dry and tough, but Eopcheonri382's version must have more moisture, because it was really juicy and tender — very easy to eat! The spicy jalapeño bits you bite into now and then give the dish a nice kick amid what could otherwise be a plain flavor, haha. Probably because of the oriental sauce, the natural sweetness of the ingredients and the dressing's saltiness balanced out nicely! Even after finishing it, my stomach didn't feel heavy — just a clean, satisfying fullness. ![The takeout bowl after finishing the chicken breast poke](https://img.superchart.com/images/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe-16-1iela-900.webp) ![Eopcheonri382's sikhye with rice grains inside](https://img.superchart.com/images/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe-17-1xaz8-900.webp) ## Eopcheonri sikhye (gamju), great for dessert Lastly, Eopcheonri's sikhye (sweet rice drink)! Eopcheonri's gamju has rice grains floating in it and a distinctly sweet flavor. It felt just right as a dessert after the meal. Next time, I'd love to come back to Eopcheonri382 near Chungbuk National University and try the sweet field latte series alongside a fresh poke bowl~ ## Where it is - Eopcheonri382 Chungbuk National University Branch (읍천리382 충북대점) - 713-1 1st floor, 1sunhwan-ro, Seowon-gu, Cheongju-si, Chungcheongbuk-do, South Korea - 충청북도 청주시 서원구 1순환로 713-1 1층 - 36.6301637, 127.4621173 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%9D%8D%EC%B2%9C%EB%A6%AC382%20%EC%B6%A9%EB%B6%81%EB%8C%80%EC%A0%90/@36.6301637,127.4621173,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@finding-a-table/chungbuk-univ-poke-takeout-sikhye-cafe/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
