Bucheon holiday pub dinner with pastry ham Rollage: People & Peoples

For the holiday, I took my pizza-obsessed younger brother out somewhere special. I'd heard about a place with an unusual menu — not just ordinary pizza, but pastry dough rolled up like a roll — so we headed to People & Peoples in Sangdong, Bucheon.

With a vibe like a hip foreign pub, this Sangdong bar in Bucheon serves genuinely high-quality handmade dishes. Let me dive right into my visit to People & Peoples ^^

What's the vibe like at People & Peoples? Foreign pub feel meets outdoor patio energy

Walk straight from Sangdong Station Exit 7 and People & Peoples is easy to spot on the 1st floor of Guk​cheon Building. Step inside and you'll see stylish bottles displayed all around, with one corner styled like a sleek cocktail bar — it really gives off that exotic pub feeling ^^

Maybe because the autumn weather was cool, they had the folding doors on one side of the store wide open. Even sitting inside the main hall, it felt like sipping drinks on an outdoor terrace with a refreshing breeze.

Every table has a wireless charger

Tables at People & Peoples come equipped with a fast wireless charger for three phones at once, plus a charger for watches and earbuds. The terrace side was already packed with guests soaking up the atmosphere, proving how popular this Sangdong bar really is — but honestly, what surprised me most was this charger. The attention to guest convenience was genuinely touching ^^

How does the cream roll lasagna at People & Peoples taste?

Cream roll lasagna is lasagna sheets rolled up around plenty of beef ragu sauce and handmade ham. It was the first dish to arrive after we sat down and ordered via table order, and it looked completely different from the usual stacked-layer lasagna ^^

Underneath this beef roll lasagna sits a shallow pool of savory cream stew — the visual alone is a work of art.

Cut into bite-sized pieces and tasted, the rich umami of the ragu sauce and the smooth cream blend perfectly in your mouth. Beef, vegetables, ham — none of the ingredients were skimped on, and I could feel that generosity in every mouthful.

Even my picky younger brother said the sauce was so good he scraped the plate clean — that's how solid the quality was ^^

How is the pastry-dough rollazu (ham) different from a regular roll pizza?

People & Peoples' rollazu (ham) is a roll-style pizza where the entire dough is a layered, flaky pastry. This was the next dish I'd been looking forward to.

I've seen roll-style pizza before, but rollazu's pastry dough makes for a completely different texture. The outside shatters crisply when you bite in, and the inside is loaded with ham, various vegetable toppings, and pizza sauce for maximum juiciness ^^

The moment you bite in, the savory smell of butter and the salty pizza toppings come together — the classic sweet-and-salty combo that any Korean can't help but love.

Since we drove, we had to settle for cola instead, but I think a cold draft beer or a cocktail alongside would make this the ultimate spot for beer and pizza in Sangdong. Next time I'll leave the car at home and definitely have a cold one with it ^^

How big are the portions, and can leftovers be packed?

The portions of cream roll lasagna and rollazu at People & Peoples were much bigger than expected for two people, and we packed up the leftover rollazu to take home. When the food first arrived, the portions looked reasonable, but once we started eating, the ingredients were so generously packed that we couldn't finish it all ^^ When I asked for a to-go box, the owner packed it up neatly, as if it were freshly made, with such kindness that it left me feeling great right to the end.

The atmosphere itself wasn't too loud or chaotic, making it a great place to enjoy handmade dishes as bar snacks while chatting comfortably with company over drinks. This Sangdong bar in Bucheon proves through its food that the owner's goal is to make every single dish delicious, no matter what you order. If you're looking for a Sangdong beer-and-pizza spot with both great atmosphere and great taste, be sure to visit ^^

How does parking work at People & Peoples?

People & Peoples guests can use the parking lot inside Guk​cheon Building where the store is located. Parking is ₩1,000 for the first 60 minutes and ₩1,000 for each additional 60 minutes, but you can buy a parking voucher in-store at ₩1,000 per hour — just be sure to mention it at the counter when paying to register your parking ^^ Parking is always a hassle in the busy Sangdong area, so having a building lot was really convenient.
