The writer brought her dog Cookie and her mother for a Mountain Burger, bongolre pasta (clam pasta), and shrimp tomato pasta, finishing with a gelato dessert that stole the show.

These days when the weather's good, I find myself hunting for places I can take my dog. Sitting right by the Bukhan River, MR turned out to be a fantastic choice. - 📍1602-22 Bukhangang-ro, Hwado-eup, Namyangju-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea (large parking lot in front of the café) - Closed every Monday and Tuesday - Wed–Sun 11:00–19:00 - Last order 18:30 ## An open-air terrace and interiors full of atmosphere ![Entrance to MR Namyangju Main Branch on a clear day](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-02-1xvwi-966.webp) The weather was so nice that day I felt like I was abroad, haha. The entrance to MR is pretty too. ![Large parking lot right in front of the café](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-03-1igcr-966.webp) There's a big parking lot right in front of the café, so no worries about parking there. We went pretty much right at opening, but since it was a weekend, there were already a lot of cars. ![Modern building exterior with outdoor terrace seating](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-04-i9kc0-966.webp) ![Parasol-covered outdoor tables on the gravel yard](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-05-1jiig-966.webp) ![Smiley-face photo spot outside the café](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-06-4phk8-966.webp) ![Spacious outdoor terrace seating area](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-07-1tnba-966.webp) The building's modern, clean exterior has a smiley-face photo spot, and the terrace seating is really pretty too. The yard is laid with pretty gravel, and there are lovely parasols and outdoor tables scattered around. The outdoor space is quite large and comfortable, making it a great spot to bring your dog. ![Large glass door entrance leading inside](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-08-d5ob3-966.webp) There's a large glass door leading inside with a quirky design — push one side and the other side opens — so I was full of curiosity right from the entrance. ![Café interior entrance decorated with plants](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-09-1aw2k-966.webp) ![Café interior seating with wide table spacing](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-10-1l72t-966.webp) ![Dog photo spots throughout the interior](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-11-14sep-966.webp) ![Café interior decorated with lush green plants](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-12-mh5tw-m-966.webp) The owner must love plants. As soon as you walk in, lush green plants greet you. I was struck by the spacious table spacing and how open the interior felt. There are dog photo spots scattered throughout, which made it all feel really cute. ## Pure healing: a picture-perfect river-view outdoor seat ![River-view outdoor seating overlooking the Bukhan River](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-13-47dm2-966.webp) ![View of the river and mountains from a shaded parasol seat](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-14-1ijez-966.webp) This place's biggest charm is the sweeping Bukhan River view! Sitting in the shade under a parasol with a cool river breeze blowing in, the green mountains and river laid out before me — just looking at it felt like real healing. So we set up with Cookie on the outdoor terrace. ![Dog Cookie on the gravel path and grass](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-15-1vdfg-966.webp) With the gravel path, grass, and blue sky all coming together, every shot came out looking like a life shot! Cookie looks happy too, doesn't she? 😊 ![Cookie the dog looking at the camera](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-16-110sf-m-966.webp) Our Cookie doesn't really like having her photo taken. Usually when I point the camera at her, she turns her head away — but that day she must have been in a good mood. I got tons of life shots ♡ ![Brunch menu board at MR Namyangju Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-17-1v0j5-966.webp) ![Menu board listing pastas and burgers](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-18-1y0ny-966.webp) As a café also known for brunch in Namyangju, there were lots of delicious-looking brunch items on the menu. We ordered one each of the signature Mountain Burger, shrimp pasta, and bongolre (clam pasta). ## Brunch that's perfect from visuals to taste ![Brunch spread and americano set on an outdoor table](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-19-rs6qg-966.webp) Mountain Burger, shrimp tomato pasta, bongolre pasta, and a cool americano — the visuals are so good! Eating brunch under an outdoor parasol looking out at the river view — just the look of it alone made my mouth water. ![Signature Mountain Burger served with fries](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-20-pa6ig-966.webp) ### Mountain Burger The Mountain Burger is the café's signature burger, packed with beef patty, bacon, hash brown, cheese, egg, romaine, tomato, and onion — and maybe because it's so loaded, the flavor was rich too. The fries that came with it were also really good! ![Bongolre pasta loaded with clams](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-21-sc7pi-966.webp) ![Close-up of bongolre pasta noodles being lifted](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-22-8tq72-966.webp) ### Bongolre pasta The bongolre pasta (clam pasta), with springy noodles and a generous amount of clams, was also very satisfying. ![Shrimp tomato pasta topped with arugula](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-23-ru8ae-966.webp) ### Shrimp tomato pasta This is a shrimp pasta where you can choose the base from tomato, oil, cream, or rosé — we went with tomato! With arugula added, it was fresh, and the sauce soaked into the noodles nicely, so even my mom, who doesn't usually enjoy rich food, ate it happily. ![Gelato-topped cheesecake dessert](https://img.superchart.com/images/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr-24-y9ma5-966.webp) ### The real kick: gelato dessert And the real kick was the dessert! The ice cream was gelato, and it was completely, wonderfully chewy. Easily the best ice cream I've had at a café recently! And paired with the cheesecake, it was so good!! ## Overall thoughts With its gorgeous river view, outdoor space, and brunch as good as a proper restaurant's, this is a Namyangju dog-friendly café that also counts as a real restaurant. Dog-friendly cafés usually fall a bit short on food, but this one is easily one of the best brunch spots in Namyangju! On a nice day, we got tons of pretty life shots and spent such a happy time with Cookie and my mom 😊 Highly recommend it if you're looking for a dog-friendly café in Namyangju! ## Where it is - MR Namyangju Main Branch (엠아르 남양주본점) - 1602-22 Bukhangang-ro, Hwado-eup, Namyangju-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 남양주시 화도읍 북한강로 1602-22 엠아르 - 37.6502837, 127.3688376 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%97%A0%EC%95%84%EB%A5%B4%20%EB%82%A8%EC%96%91%EC%A3%BC%EB%B3%B8%EC%A0%90/@37.6502837,127.3688376,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@local-order-book/namyangju-riverview-dog-friendly-brunch-mr/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
