Cheonan brunch café for friends, mashed potato chicken sandwich: Pino

I recently went to a seriously pretty brunch café and I have to tell you about it 😁 The autumn cosmos are in full bloom right now, so I kidnapped a friend and off we went~ The brunch is tasty for the price, you can have your meal and coffee in one stop, and the view is gorgeous! Let me introduce Pino Cafe in Cheonan~

Parking and interior at Pino Cafe Cheonan

Pino Cafe is out in Pungse-myeon on the outskirts of Cheonan, and parking is easy because there's even a second parking lot for when the main one is full. Now that autumn is here the weather is cool and I keep wanting to get out of town. On one of those days I went looking for somewhere with cosmos in bloom, and Pino Cafe is what I found.

Inside, Pino Cafe is warm wood tones and white, with a comfy, relaxed feel. The tables are roomy, so it works for groups of four or just two. My friend and I moved out to the terrace to enjoy the outdoors.

Where is the Pino Cafe annex?

The annex is a new space right behind the main building, so you worry less about finding a seat even at peak hours. Pino Cafe is popular and the main building was always packed, but with the annex, peak hours are no problem! It has big glass windows and a bright feel, so eating in the annex is great too. Clean and neat, right?

✔️ It's a Cheonan café that's good to visit with kids, too.

Pino Cafe brunch menu and prices

My friend and I chose the whole-wheat chicken sandwich set for ₩17,900, spicy bulgogi rosé pasta for ₩16,000, a mango yogurt smoothie for ₩7,500, and a grapefruit ade. We agonized over the many options before settling on this combination.

• Whole-wheat chicken sandwich set ₩17,900
• Spicy bulgogi rosé pasta ₩16,000
• Mango yogurt smoothie ₩7,500
• Grapefruit ade

If you order a coffee and write a receipt review, you also get a homemade egg tart. The happy hour set is good value too: a sandwich, an Americano or cola, and a mini salad for ₩13,000. It's weekdays only, 11am to 2pm, and not available on weekends or holidays.

How do the chicken sandwich and bulgogi rosé pasta taste?

The whole-wheat chicken sandwich at Pino Cafe has mashed potato inside, so it felt hearty and soft. We ate our brunch looking out through the big glass windows.

🌱 The spicy bulgogi rosé pasta we ordered lets you adjust the spice level, and we went with medium. It cut through the richness, so it was an excellent choice.

🌱 Overall, the brunch lineup and quality are impressive. Brunch can often be pricey and not even good, but here it tastes good for the price and the menu is varied, so it seems like a great place for get-togethers.

Pino Cafe bread lineup and egg tarts

The bread at Pino Cafe is cheap too, and I tried one egg tart that was really good, so coffee with bread was just right. After brunch, my friend and I had a second round in the annex with Americanos and bread.

When do the yellow cosmos bloom in Pino Cafe's garden?

The main attraction of Pino Cafe is the outdoor garden. I went in late September and the yellow cosmos were already like this, so in October they should be even fuller and prettier. Photos come out beautifully in the garden, so do take a few~ A lovely space and wide open outdoors, this Cheonan café is impossible not to fall for. I think it'd be good with kids too.

A red windmill stands like something out of a fairy tale in the garden full of yellow cosmos. We went out for a walk to help digest our brunch. Isn't it so pretty? I went after seeing this kind of photo, and since I visited in late September, I think it'll be even fuller and prettier in October~ Pino Cafe with autumn cosmos is so romantic.

Pino Cafe camping picnic prices and dog policy

Pino's "Romantic Camknic" (Pino-ui Nangman Camknic, a camping-picnic experience) is a space in the forest just above the café, and it costs about ₩30,000 for 2 hours. Check it out through Naver reservations~

There's even a spot for roasting marshmallows, so it's good to come with kids. A café with nature like this right there is the best~ 🐶 Pino Cafe is also a café you can visit with your dog.

Who to bring to Pino Cafe's outdoor picnic zone

Besides the indoor space, Pino Cafe in Cheonan has an outdoor picnic zone, so it's great as a Cheonan date spot and just right for family, couples, or friends. A garden this beautiful through all four seasons makes me look forward to the next season too. Being out in nature makes my chest feel wide open, and I feel healed just being surrounded by it~

A 3,000-pyeong outdoor garden, a varied brunch menu, and easy parking: Pino Cafe in Cheonan, any reason not to go? Head there on a weekend with family or friends, get some fresh air and stroll the garden, and you'll soak up the whole autumn feeling~ Highly recommended.
