Jeju Jocheon café to watch snorkelers over almond cake: Robain Coffee

While driving around Jeju, I stopped at Robain Coffee Jeju Jocheon Sinchon Branch (로바인커피 제주조천신촌점) for a break! It's known as an ocean-view café where you can have a coffee looking out over the Jocheon sea, and the wide-open view really gave me that relaxed trip feeling.. Okay, let's go with the review! ☕️🤍

Opening hours and parking at Robain Coffee Jeju Jocheon Sinchon Branch

Robain Coffee Jeju Jocheon Sinchon Branch is in Jocheon-eup, Jeju-si, and is open every day from 10:00 to 19:00. There's a dedicated parking lot right in front of the café. 🚗

Wait.. even the entrance is so totally my taste..?!! It's a big Jocheon café with a second floor, a rooftop and even a separate annex! And honestly, this place is a true Jeju ocean-view gem, hehe.

First-floor interior and menu

The first floor has both the ordering area and seating. The moment I walked in, I noticed how clean and cozy the mood was. It's bright and warm overall, so it felt easy to just sit back and relax, hehe.

The menu at this Jocheon-eup café covers everything from coffee to ades, other drinks and desserts! There were even so many kinds of cake that choosing was really hard.. T.T Sob... it all looked so delicious...

We took our buzzer and headed straight up to the second floor. There was artwork on display, so we enjoyed looking at it on the way up.

Second-floor floor-to-ceiling sea views and snorkelers at Sinchon Port

The second floor of Robain Coffee Jeju Jocheon Sinchon Branch has private rooms and a wide, sweeping ocean view. Seriously.. the second floor is a massive view jackpot >< Wherever you sit, the floor-to-ceiling windows show the sea, and it was so pretty that I kept gazing at it with my mouth hanging open.

Sinchon Port is right in front of the café, so it's perfect for watching the scene! Lots of people were snorkeling, and we kept spotting people diving in, haha.

A private room with adjustable air conditioning

We grabbed the private room! The private room at Robain Coffee Jeju Jocheon Sinchon Branch has its own air conditioning temperature control, so it was much, much cooler.

What we ordered at Robain Coffee and the prices

• Iced americano ₩6,000
• Lemonade ₩6,000
• Almond cake ₩7,000

The kind owner also gave us drip bag coffee as a freebie! You can get it by joining the Naver receipt review event.

How was the iced americano?

The iced americano at Robain Coffee was clean and not too acidic, so it was easy to drink. It had a subtle nutty richness, and drinking it while looking at the Jeju sea made it feel even more relaxing, haha.

How was the lemonade?

The lemonade had really lively freshness, so I happily gulped it down! The balance of sweet and sour was good, and it was great ice-cold. On a hot Jeju trip day it felt like it wiped out my thirst, hehe.

Almond cake: even my cake-skeptic boyfriend loved it

The almond cake we ordered along with it was satisfying too. The outside had a rich almond flavor and the inside was chewy, so it went really well with coffee! It wasn't too sweet, which made it ideal with the iced americano.. My boyfriend, who doesn't really like cake, said it was in his top three cakes ever, haha >< hehe.

Is it a good café to stop at on a Jocheon drive?

If you're planning a Jocheon drive, I recommend enjoying a coffee and some downtime at Robain Coffee Jeju Jocheon Sinchon Branch. However you shoot it, it's an ocean view, so photos come out amazing~~~ haha.

The annex next to the main building

I also checked out the annex right next to Robain Coffee Jeju Jocheon Sinchon Branch, and it was cool and cozy too.. It has a different charm from the main building 🍊🤍 The owner welcomed us kindly and the coffee was good, so I'd love to come back again!
