After-work waiting led to rich yet not heavy tonkotsu ramen, Iekei ramen, crisp chicken karaage, and unlimited rice. Gyeoretsu Ramen Bucheon University Branch is a great pick for a filling bowl with rich broth. ## Good to know - **Hours**: Daily 11:30–21:00 - **Break time**: 15:00–17:00 - **Seating**: Bar-style seats in front of the kitchen - **Rice**: Unlimited refills at the self-service corner *as written by the visitor on Sep 10, 2026* ![Exterior of Gyeoretsu Ramen Bucheon University Branch in Bucheon](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-01-1kacl-900.webp) ## A Bucheon ramen spot after work The weather suddenly turned cooler lately, and I was hit with a serious craving for something warm and brothy, so after work I went with Daengi to this popular ramen spot in Bucheon. It sits between Bucheon Station and Bucheon University, so it was easy enough to find, but it was the evening peak so there were lots of customers and we had to wait. While waiting, I thought, yep, a popular restaurant really is popular—this is Gyeoretsu Ramen Bucheon University Branch (교레츠라멘 부천대점) ☺️ ## Gyeoretsu Ramen, a Japanese ramen specialist ![Japanese ramen specialist information at Gyeoretsu Ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-02-11xfq-900.webp) ![Restaurant notice at Gyeoretsu Ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-03-1xe0z-900.webp) Gyeoretsu Ramen is a great Bucheon ramen spot with a rich Hakata-style tonkotsu broth, so you can look forward to the truly authentic ramen flavor you would taste in Japan. I heard it has also appeared as a featured restaurant on SBS's Master of Living. ## Kiosk ordering and a compact dining room ![Kiosk menu guide at Gyeoretsu Ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-04-16vsu-900.webp) ![Ramen menu at Gyeoretsu Ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-05-sbr40-900.webp) ![Ordering menu guide at Gyeoretsu Ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-06-181ix-1200.webp) ![Kiosk menu screen at Gyeoretsu Ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-07-13a04-900.webp) ![Menu selection guide at Gyeoretsu Ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-08-vxaex-900.webp) As soon as you walk in, you see the kiosk. There is also a menu guide so even guests who do not know much about ramen can choose something that suits their taste—no need to agonize over what to get 🤞 ![Restaurant kiosk at Gyeoretsu Ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-09-15z73-900.webp) ![Ordering area at Gyeoretsu Ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-10-13zzc-900.webp) After ordering, you can take any seat you like. The neat, compact space had such a cozy feel, like stepping into a little ramen shop in Japan. There are bar-style seats in front of the kitchen too, so it seems like a good place for a solo meal. ![Compact interior of Gyeoretsu Ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-11-egekz-900.webp) ![Bar-style seating at Gyeoretsu Ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-12-jphn5-900.webp) ![Seats in front of the kitchen at Gyeoretsu Ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-13-1om03-900.webp) ## Unlimited rice that goes perfectly with ramen There is a self-service corner on one side of the restaurant, and the rice comes with unlimited refills...! 🫢 You know how, when you are eating ramen, you suddenly want a spoonful of rice with that rich broth? You can comfortably take as much as you want from the self-service bar, with no need to feel self-conscious! The ramen is reasonably priced too, so this Bucheon ramen spot is such good value—love it❣️ ![Self-service corner at Gyeoretsu Ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-14-aw2wt-900.webp) ![Unlimited refill rice at Gyeoretsu Ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-15-12xty-900.webp) ![Self-service bar selection at Gyeoretsu Ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-16-4iaux-900.webp) They also have furikake (Japanese rice seasoning) to sprinkle over your rice, and its nutty, salty flavor was exactly my kind of thing! ![Rice and furikake](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-17-14ry4-900.webp) ![Furikake self-service corner at Gyeoretsu Ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-18-6q7cz-900.webp) ![Rice topped with furikake](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-19-1m065-900.webp) ## Rich tonkotsu ramen without the heaviness After the wait, our tonkotsu ramen arrived. The milky broth was rich and nutty! Broth like this can easily become too rich and cloying as you eat, but this was not heavy at all, and the flavor was wonderfully deep. My partner said the moment they tasted it, it was exactly like the ramen they had eaten in Japan. ![Tonkotsu ramen at Gyeoretsu Ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-20-14szj-900.webp) ![Tonkotsu ramen with rich broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-21-rgxvz-900.webp) ## Iekei ramen and chicken karaage together The Iekei ramen my partner ordered combines tonkotsu with chicken oil and a special soy sauce, giving it an even richer flavor and a different kind of appeal. Gyeoretsu Ramen makes its broth fresh every day and prepares its handmade chashu and toppings in-house, so the overall flavor and finish felt really polished. I totally agree that it is a great Bucheon ramen spot 👏👏 ![Iekei ramen at Gyeoretsu Ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-22-pz27n-900.webp) ![Crisp chicken karaage](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu-23-nwp7b-900.webp) The chicken karaage (Japanese fried chicken) we ordered as a side was beautifully golden and crisp, with a savory saltiness that makes it an essential ramen pairing. With rich-broth ramen, a side dish, and as much filling rice as you want, Gyeoretsu Ramen was great for an affordable, satisfying meal. I recommend visiting whenever you are craving Japanese ramen 👍 ## Where it is - Gyeoretsu Ramen Bucheon University Branch (교레츠라멘 부천대점) (교레츠라멘 부천대점) - 4 Buil-ro 445beon-gil, Wonmi-gu, Bucheon-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 부천시 원미구 부일로445번길 4 1층 - 37.4864857, 126.7797668 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EA%B5%90%EB%A0%88%EC%B8%A0%EB%9D%BC%EB%A9%98%20%EB%B6%80%EC%B2%9C%EB%8C%80%EC%A0%90/@37.4864857,126.7797668,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@gyeonggi-lunch-detour/bucheon-tonkotsu-ramen-garetsu/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
