The order was an iced Americano, manju (sweet stuffed bun), mentaiko salt bread and egg pie, and Peer a Peer's roomy tables made laptop work easy; the mentaiko salt bread was crisp outside with a savory-salty depth. Between the bread and the generous seating, Peer a Peer is worth a stop on every Gimhae visit. ## Good to know - **Address**: 1st floor, 139-5 Jillye-ro, Jillye-myeon, Gimhae-si, Gyeongsangnam-do - **Hours**: Mon–Fri 11:00–20:00 (last order 19:30), Sat–Sun 11:00–21:00 (last order 20:30) - **Parking**: Private lot for up to 100 cars - **What we ordered**: Iced Americano, manju, mentaiko salt bread, egg pie - **Seating**: Regular tables, long tables, tables with standing lamps, high chairs available - **Event**: Free muffin for writing a Naver receipt review *as written by the visitor on Sep 13, 2026* ![Main image of Peer a Peer in Jillye, Gimhae](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-01-1nzwu-900.webp) These days I'm a total bread lover haha, always chasing down good bakeries. Since I was in Gimhae, I stopped by a Gimhae bread hotspot too. Let's go through my review of Peer a Peer in Gimhae — a large café I'd recommend in the area. > Peer a Peer · 139-5 Jillye-ro, Jillye-myeon, Gimhae-si, Gyeongsangnam-do, South Korea, 1st floor / Mon–Fri 11:00–20:00 (last order 19:30), Sat–Sun 11:00–21:00 (last order 20:30) ## What kind of café is Peer a Peer? Peer a Peer is a large café remodeled from a 40-year-old factory. The name is said to carry the meaning that some things only reveal themselves when you stay and look closely. Rather than just a café to look at the scenery, it aims to be a space where you can linger and discover new tastes and inspiration. ![Exterior of Peer a Peer, remodeled from a factory](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-02-o6ivk-900.webp) ![Peer a Peer building and surrounding scenery](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-03-1af8d-900.webp) Peer a Peer is both a café and a cultural space where you can experience coffee and bakery goods, as well as books, exhibitions, and performances. ![Interior of Peer a Peer, a café and cultural space](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-04-1tyer-900.webp) ## Parking and seating at Peer a Peer Peer a Peer's private lot can hold up to 100 cars, so parking was convenient. ![Peer a Peer's private parking lot with 100-car capacity](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-05-1t00g-900.webp) Being a large café, the interior is quite spacious, and there's a space guide map on one side that's handy to check when you're finding your way around. The tables were spaced generously apart, so it felt comfortable rather than cramped, with everything from regular tables to long tables for groups. Each area has a slightly different mood, so you can pick whichever spot suits you. Overall it had a clean, calm atmosphere, great for relaxing with a cup of coffee. ![Spaciously arranged table seating at Peer a Peer](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-06-g1qnd-900.webp) There were also tables with standing lamps, which seemed good for reading. There are various artworks and books on display — you can appreciate the art, and even if you didn't bring a book, you can borrow one to read. Baby chairs are also available, so keep that in mind if you're visiting with little ones. ![Interior space at Peer a Peer with books on a table](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-07-1u7a6-900.webp) ![Bakery display case at Peer a Peer](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-08-1qgqc-900.webp) ![Various types of bread on display](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-09-8xnea-900.webp) ![Bread display at Peer a Peer](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-10-1xzfj-900.webp) ![Bakery corner at Peer a Peer](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-11-nppuh-900.webp) ## Peer a Peer bakery and drink menu Peer a Peer sells a wide range of baked goods. Each piece of bread looked so good, right...? I honestly wanted to try them all. ![Cakes and wakppu salt bread on display](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-12-1swni-900.webp) They also had delicious cakes and the trendy wakppu (thick, oversized) salt bread. They sell a variety of coffee, lattes, smoothies, teas, and juices — the same kinds of tasty drinks you'd find at any regular café. ![Drink menu board listing coffee, lattes, and tea](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-13-26cqu-900.webp) If you leave a Naver receipt review, you can get a free muffin, so join the event and grab one. ## How do the mentaiko salt bread, egg pie and manju taste? What I ordered was iced Americano, manju, mentaiko salt bread, and egg pie. ![Table spread of iced Americano, manju, mentaiko salt bread, and egg pie](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-14-53mh7-900.webp) ![Bread and coffee on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-15-1dxo5-900.webp) ![Plate of manju and mentaiko salt bread](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-16-kkop0-900.webp) ![Close-up of the bread ordered at Peer a Peer](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-17-7tpz8-900.webp) Peer a Peer, officially a certified bread hotspot!! This was the best bread I've had recently. ![Mentaiko salt bread shown upright](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-18-1p92t-900.webp) ![Cross-section of mentaiko salt bread](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-19-70wzf-900.webp) ![Inside view of the salt bread with mentaiko filling](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-20-1kibt-900.webp) It was my first time trying mentaiko (seasoned pollock roe) salt bread — the outside was crispy and the mentaiko inside was salty with great umami, genuinely delicious. It wasn't too strong-flavored either, seasoned just right so I could eat it without any burden. ![Egg pie with visible flaky layers](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-21-l8khb-900.webp) ![Cross-section of the egg pie filling](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-22-1dkj0-900.webp) The egg pie had a flaky, layered crust on the outside while the filling inside was soft and moist — I enjoyed it a lot. ![Iced Americano paired with bread](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-23-r0544-900.webp) When the bread got a bit much, I'd wash it down with the iced Americano and go back for more bread — the best combo ^^ The Americano had a nutty, dark roast feel to it. ![Coffee and bread on the table at Peer a Peer](https://img.superchart.com/images/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread-24-rend6-1200.webp) ## Is Peer a Peer good for laptop work? I got some laptop work done at Peer a Peer while enjoying coffee and bread, and it turned out to be a great café for working on a laptop too. It's a café I'd want to stop by every time I visit Gimhae. If you're looking for a large café or bakery café in Gimhae, I recommend 'Peer a Peer.' ## Where it is - Peer a Peer (피어어피어) - 139-5 Jillye-ro, Jillye-myeon, Gimhae-si, Gyeongsangnam-do, South Korea, 1st floor - 경상남도 김해시 진례면 진례로 139-5 1층 - 35.2399837, 128.7494629 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%94%BC%EC%96%B4%EC%96%B4%ED%94%BC%EC%96%B4/@35.2399837,128.7494629,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@haeundae-slope-cup/gimhae-jinrye-cafe-mentaiko-salt-bread/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
