A family of three ordered strawberry, banana and melon flavors, tried pouring espresso over the shaved ice like grown-ups, and even tasted the garlic-shaped white chocolate hidden inside. With dogs welcome indoors and figurines to admire, it made a great spot to escape the summer heat while traveling in Danyang. ## Good to know - **Address**: 10-4 Byeolgok 12-gil, Danyang-eup, Danyang-gun, Chungcheongbuk-do, South Korea - **Hours**: Daily 10:00–19:00 - **Signature menu**: Garlic-shaped bingsu (Sambong Bingsu, Garlic Bingsu) - **Bingsu flavors**: Banana, strawberry, melon - **Price note**: Sambong Bingsu is a bit cheaper than the Garlic Bingsu - **Pets**: Dogs welcome indoors and outdoors, no carrier or cage required - **Space**: Indoor and outdoor seating, plus a separate 2nd floor (closed at time of visit) *as written by the visitor on Sep 6, 2026* ![Garlic-shaped bingsu, JB Coffee's signature dessert in Danyang](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu-01-6u8ct-1200.webp) Hi everyone, it's Cheese Mom the cat lady. While escaping the heat on our Danyang trip, we stopped by JB Coffee, a Danyang bingsu (shaved ice) spot, for a quirky dessert :) It's a café we ran into while traveling in Danyang, and it serves some genuinely unusual desserts. ![Exterior of JB Coffee café in Danyang](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu-02-1a36c-900.webp) ![Outdoor seating area at JB Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu-03-yjc7p-900.webp) ## A Danyang café where dogs can come inside too This café serves desserts you can only find in Danyang, so it was somewhere I really wanted to visit~ Since it's a dog-friendly café, it has both indoor and outdoor spaces. JB Coffee's exterior has a stylish design, but the inside really shows off the owner's personal taste too~ From the warm lighting to the various figurines, there was plenty of fun stuff to look at. ![Café interior with warm lighting and figurines](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu-04-1vu1n-900.webp) ![Figurine display showing the owner's personal taste](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu-05-1uxul-m-900.webp) For reference, this place lets you bring your dog inside without a separate cage or carrier bag, not just outside :) So many people travel with their dogs these days, so a place like this is exactly what you need if you're looking for a dog-friendly café. ## Sambong Bingsu and Garlic Bingsu: how we ordered for three JB Coffee's menu! Since this is a café in Danyang, the garlic-shaped Sambong Bingsu and Garlic Bingsu immediately catch your eye! These are JB Coffee's signature bingsu. ![JB Coffee menu board showing Sambong Bingsu and Garlic Bingsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu-06-6xo1u-900.webp) ![Menu listing for the garlic-shaped bingsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu-07-hifss-900.webp) The colorful Sambong Bingsu is so cute, and the single-piece Garlic Bingsu is really cute too. The flavors are banana, strawberry, and melon~ There were three of us, so we each ordered a different flavor. The Sambong Bingsu is a bit cheaper, but since we were eating with our kid, we ordered differently so the kid could just have the bingsu without the coffee poured on top^^ ![Table seating for three at the café](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu-08-52tt0-900.webp) ## A look that recreates a whole garlic bulb and peeled cloves A little while after ordering, the owner personally brought us this adorable garlic dessert, worthy of Danyang's bingsu fame — ta-da!!!!! Wow... it's a bingsu that really looks exactly like garlic, haha. And underneath that garlic-shaped sherbet was garlic-clove-shaped white chocolate too. ![Close-up of the whole garlic-shaped sherbet bingsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu-09-1nvr4-900.webp) ![Dessert with peeled-garlic-shaped white chocolate inside](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu-10-opd4l-900.webp) It looked so exactly like real garlic that I was genuinely surprised~~~ The look recreates both a whole bulb and peeled cloves, haha. It was such a fun, unusual dessert, so fitting for the garlic capital^^ It tasted great too — I wanted to give it a 10 out of 10. ## What happens when you pour espresso on top? A fancy version of a melting bingsu bar Our kid had strawberry, I had banana, and my husband had melon~ Oh... now I get why you're supposed to pour coffee on it! It tasted like a fancy version of a classic melting ice cream bar~~ ![Espresso poured over the garlic-shaped bingsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu-11-1e750-900.webp) ![Sherbet bingsu mixed with espresso](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu-12-1gy9n-900.webp) It wasn't just a regular ice cream bar taste — the aroma was so good and the sweetness really chased the heat away. It felt totally different from just pouring a shot over regular ice cream. The sherbet itself tasted great on its own too. So cool and sweet! Pouring the espresso on turned it into a fancy dessert just for adults~ It was my first time trying a combination like this, and I was amazed someone came up with the idea. The garlic-shaped white chocolate was really delicious too. Thumbs up!! ## Sunset atmosphere, second floor for next time We had our desserts and looked around at the figurines that make up JB Coffee's unique interior~ Such a great day. As it got darker outside, the atmosphere actually got even better for a visit! ![JB Coffee's indoor atmosphere at sunset](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu-13-1lmbo-900.webp) ![Café lighting after dark](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu-14-1ynwg-900.webp) I went when the second floor was already closed for the day, so I didn't get to drink there, but I'd love to come back sometime and enjoy the coffee or bingsu in that upstairs atmosphere :) I feel like I'll end up in Danyang again somehow. ![Seating and decor at JB Coffee](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu-15-q0vv6-900.webp) ![Exterior view of JB Coffee during the Danyang trip](https://img.superchart.com/images/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu/danyang-pet-friendly-cafe-garlic-bingsu-16-rnkan-900.webp) As always, I think the real joy of traveling is hunting down the local food spots. Danyang has so many great restaurants that I was busy just eating my way through, haha. I hope you enjoyed this review of what I thought was garlic but turned out to be dessert.
