During a gap between work appointments, the writer and a companion ordered an iced café latte and a hot flat white with two of Forerest's house-made, fridge-aged cakes: plain Basque cheesecake and Earl Grey Basque cheesecake. With a wide parking lot and a different interior in every room, Forerest is an easy place to step out of the city for a quiet cup of coffee. ## Good to know - **Location**: Forerest, 181 Nogyang-ro, Uijeongbu-si, Gyeonggi-do - **Basque cheesecake**: 7,500 won - **Matcha, black sesame and chocolate Basque cheesecake**: 8,000 won each - **Americano**: 5,500 won - **Flat white**: 6,500 won - **Café mocha**: 6,800 won - **Other drinks**: Decaf coffee and organic teas - **Parking**: Wide lot beside the road, plus a separate lot right next to the café *as written by the visitor on Sep 15, 2026* ![Main photo of Forerest, a large Uijeongbu café](https://img.superchart.com/images/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque-01-wjq9p-1200.webp) > Forerest — a cake spot at a large Uijeongbu café ## Why Forerest works for a gap between work appointments in Uijeongbu I visited Forerest, a large café on Nogyang-ro in Uijeongbu. I ended up here while looking for somewhere quiet to have a coffee during a gap in a work trip to Uijeongbu. If you ever want to escape the cityscape, here's my post on this forest café view. ![Exterior of Forerest after arriving via navigation search](https://img.superchart.com/images/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque-02-7j4qy-900.webp) Once you search it on navigation and arrive, this large Uijeongbu café is a great choice whenever you want to get away from city scenery or just want a forest café view. From the entrance it was even nicer than I expected, and I got a little excited. From the parking lot entrance, Forerest already felt like walking into a forest, and I smiled thinking, 'this is the scenery I was looking for.' ![Forerest parking lot entrance that feels like entering a forest](https://img.superchart.com/images/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque-03-4vxpd-m-900.webp) ## Parking at Forerest and the forest walking path Located right beside the road, Forerest has a spacious parking lot, so there was no worry about parking. Alongside it, sculptures blend in with the wooded area, and it wasn't too noisy either — perfect for enjoying some alone time after being worn out by weekday work. Of course today I came with a companion, but this forest café view at this large Uijeongbu café is the kind of scenery I'd want to enjoy solo too. ![Outdoor area of Forerest with sculptures set among wooded trees](https://img.superchart.com/images/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque-04-1b07x-900.webp) After parking, I walked slowly toward the café, taking in each little detail along the way. I later found out there's actually another parking lot right next to the café, so you can also drive right up to it. But I was glad I walked up and enjoyed the scenery instead. ![Forest path leading up from the parking lot to the café](https://img.superchart.com/images/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque-05-1k3kq-900.webp) Just one table placed amid the natural flow of time — and somehow that alone gives off such a feeling. If you're looking for a forest-view cake spot in Uijeongbu, Forerest is exactly it. ![Natural outdoor scenery at Forerest with a single table set outside](https://img.superchart.com/images/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque-06-1wayd-900.webp) ## Forerest's entrance and wood-toned interior This is the entrance to Forerest, a cake spot at this large Uijeongbu café. At the entrance there's a wooden stepping-stone path laid out to create a natural atmosphere. ![Forerest entrance with wooden stepping stones](https://img.superchart.com/images/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque-07-gar0j-900.webp) Stepping into Forerest, a cozy wood-tone interior caught my eye. It was so well decorated, like a photo out of a magazine, haha. ![Wood-tone interior decor inside Forerest](https://img.superchart.com/images/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque-08-qh333-900.webp) Walking further in, the ordering counter came into view. I could see drinks and cakes other guests had already ordered, which made me think I definitely had to try the cake too. ![Forerest order counter with drinks and cakes on display](https://img.superchart.com/images/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque-09-1yppn-900.webp) ## Forerest menu and prices They have coffee, tea, and Basque cheesecakes that are great for a simple treat. Forerest in particular makes its Basque cheesecakes in-house and sells them fridge-aged. They're also gluten-free, which made me think they'd taste even better. - Basque cheesecake ₩7,500 - Matcha Basque cheesecake ₩8,000 - Black sesame Basque cheesecake ₩8,000 - Chocolate Basque cheesecake ₩8,000 - Americano ₩5,500 - Café mocha ₩6,800 - Flat white ₩6,500 They also have decaf coffee and organic tea, so I liked having a wide range of choices. ![Menu board for coffee and Basque cheesecakes](https://img.superchart.com/images/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque-10-a7kpd-900.webp) ## Seating at Forerest: a different room in every space, terrace view full After ordering, I took a look around the inside of this large Uijeongbu café. ![Interior view of Forerest after placing an order](https://img.superchart.com/images/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque-11-lgeon-900.webp) There were several cozy little spaces here and there, each decorated differently, so picking a spot was its own kind of fun. ![Cozy seating area with its own distinct interior style](https://img.superchart.com/images/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque-12-1h5ob-900.webp) The best spot has to be the terrace view, right? Other guests were already seated at the terrace tables, so I left that behind with a little regret and looked for another table. ![Terrace-view seats already occupied by other guests](https://img.superchart.com/images/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque-13-1cyxt-900.webp) Luckily there was a solid wood table free, so I settled there and brought over the drinks and cake I'd ordered. ![Iced café latte, flat white, and two Basque cheesecakes on a solid wood table](https://img.superchart.com/images/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque-14-rvksl-900.webp) ## Iced café latte, flat white and two Basque cheesecakes at Forerest We ordered an iced café latte, a warm flat white, and Forerest's signature Basque cheesecake plus the Earl Grey Basque cheesecake. Chatting over good coffee and cake in a warm atmosphere, we ended up going for a little walk outside too since the scenery was so nice. That's my review of Forerest, a cake spot at this large Uijeongbu café. ## Where it is - Forerest (포어레스트) - 181 Nogyang-ro, Uijeongbu-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 의정부시 녹양로 181 포어레스트 - 37.7673048, 127.0340576 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%8F%AC%EC%96%B4%EB%A0%88%EC%8A%A4%ED%8A%B8/@37.7673048,127.0340576,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@gyeonggi-menu-margin/pour-forest-uijeongbu-forest-cafe-basque/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
