# Suwon restaurant with kids' white rice and terrace drinks: Boriook - By Sohee Gan (https://superchart.com/en/@paju-riverside-ladle/) - Written Sep 21, 2026 - Local places › Restaurants › Suwon, Gyeonggi - Sponsored: This visit was sponsored by the business. - English edition: https://superchart.com/en/@paju-riverside-ladle/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/ - Also in: [한국어](https://superchart.com/ko/@paju-riverside-ladle/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/index.md) ## In short Boriook Main Branch is a Korean set-meal restaurant near Mangpo Station in Yeongtong, Suwon, where barley rice and namul (seasoned vegetable) side dishes come with unlimited refills. On a second visit, this time with a child rather than parents, the writer ordered the gochujang pork set for 15,000 won and the mackerel set for 16,000 won, swapped barley rice for white rice for the child, and finished with rice puffs and a drink on the terrace. With high chairs and kids' trays on hand, Boriook Main Branch is an easy choice for a family meal out. ## Good to know - **Gochujang pork set**: 15,000 won - **Mackerel set**: 16,000 won (half a mackerel) - **Set menu options**: Barley rice set, mackerel set, soy sauce pork set, gochujang pork set - **Child surcharge**: 5,000 won extra for children aged 6 to 12 - **Hours**: Open daily from 10:00, break 15:00-16:30, last order 20:30, closes 21:00 - **Parking**: Free, in front of the building - **Payment**: Suwon Pay accepted - **With children**: High chairs and kids' trays available - **Event**: Free neobiani (marinated grilled beef) for writing a receipt review - **Address**: 1F, 99 Yeongtong-ro 200beon-gil, Yeongtong-gu, Suwon-si, Gyeonggi-do - **Price reference**: ₩5,000 ≈ $3.6 (2026-09-22) *as written by the visitor on Sep 21, 2026* ![Square photo of a barley rice set spread at Boriook Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik-01-12f2z-966.webp) ![Namul side dish spread at Boriook Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik-02-vidmw-966.webp) Boriook Main Branch Last time I visited this Korean restaurant near Mangpo Station with my parents — you can eat as much barley rice and namul (seasoned vegetable) side dishes as you like — and this time I went with my kid. There's such a variety of home-style, comforting side dishes, plus plenty of barley rice and banchan, that I thought it'd be a good fit for a visit with a child too. :) ![Exterior of Boriook Main Branch near Mangpo Station](https://img.superchart.com/images/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik-03-chnse-966.webp) ## Where is Boriook Main Branch? 10 minutes from Mangpo Station Boriook Main Branch, a Suwon Korean restaurant, isn't far from Mangpo Station, which makes it good for a family meal out. The interior was too crowded for photos, but it's fairly spacious with generous gaps between tables, so strollers and wheelchairs can move around fine. ![Entrance and signage at Boriook Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik-04-138sw-966.webp) There's a sign explaining how to order at Boriook, plus a note that writing a receipt review gets you a free neobiani (Korean-style grilled beef). The instructions were clear and friendly, so ordering was easy. ![Sign explaining how to order and the receipt review event at Boriook](https://img.superchart.com/images/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik-05-16sno-966.webp) ## Unlimited namul and side dishes, plus white rice and rice puffs Boriook's signature feature is unlimited refills on the side dishes. Rice, drinks, namul, fritters — there were so many options I couldn't decide what to try first. ![Self-serve bar with unlimited namul and fritters](https://img.superchart.com/images/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik-06-etiey-966.webp) ![Various side dishes laid out at the self-serve bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik-07-l4rkb-966.webp) Along with barley rice, they also have white rice, so a kid who isn't keen on barley rice can go with white rice, or switch between the two. There were also rice puffs, which my kid happily snacked on after the meal. ![Corner with barley rice, white rice, and rice puffs](https://img.superchart.com/images/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik-08-1nmwn-966.webp) ## Drinks on the Boriook terrace after the meal After eating a solid meal, I made sure to save room for dessert too. There was coffee, yulmu tea (job's tears tea), café latte, plum tea, and peach tea, and I liked being able to choose between a warm tea or an iced coffee. ![Dessert drink corner with coffee and yulmu tea](https://img.superchart.com/images/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik-09-1vsda-966.webp) They also have a spacious terrace, so it was nice to take a drink outside and enjoy it there. Now that the weather's cooler, sipping coffee outdoors was pure bliss >_< It's a nice spot to rest for a bit when you're not quite ready to head straight home after eating with your kid. ![Drink enjoyed on the outdoor terrace at Boriook Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik-10-1wzfc-966.webp) ![Terrace seating and a takeaway drink](https://img.superchart.com/images/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik-11-xfff3-966.webp) ## Boriook Main Branch menu, prices and the child surcharge There are set menus and à la carte items. The set menus are: barley rice set, mackerel set, soy sauce pork set, and gochujang pork set. Preschool-age children (from ages 6 to 12) require an extra ₩5,000 surcharge. ![Menu board showing set meals and à la carte options at Boriook Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik-12-zukd7-966.webp) > Gochujang pork set ₩15,000 / Mackerel set ₩16,000 ![Table spread for the gochujang pork set](https://img.superchart.com/images/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik-13-pc6qs-966.webp) ![Table spread with half a grilled mackerel for the mackerel set](https://img.superchart.com/images/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik-14-hcxku-966.webp) ## The spread: gochujang pork set and mackerel set We ordered the gochujang pork set and the mackerel set. The gochujang pork was seasoned nicely for eating with rice, so the adults enjoyed it, while the grilled mackerel was mild and light, making it good for eating with a kid. Note that the mackerel only comes as half a fish :) Eating through it, it felt a bit skimpy, haha. Next time I might order it as an à la carte item instead. The kids ate it happily and said it was tasty. ![Table with both gochujang pork and grilled mackerel served together](https://img.superchart.com/images/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik-15-1t52p-966.webp) Alongside this came cheonggukjang jjigae (fermented soybean paste stew) and various self-serve side dishes, which made it easy to pick and choose bites with my kid. ![Table spread with cheonggukjang jjigae and self-serve side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik-16-1ehtm-966.webp) ![Plates of namul brought over alongside cheonggukjang](https://img.superchart.com/images/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik-17-1gm2t-966.webp) ### Barley rice and fresh namul with free refills What I liked most about Boriook Main Branch was being able to eat generous portions of barley rice and a wide variety of side dishes. Adding the sesame oil and gochujang from the table, piling on plenty of namul, and mixing it all together — that's really how barley rice is meant to be eaten. ![Barley rice mixed with sesame oil and gochujang](https://img.superchart.com/images/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik-18-1r5u2-966.webp) ## Kids' tray and high chair: eating at Boriook with a child Having a kids' tray made eating with my child much easier. Japchae (stir-fried glass noodles), soft acorn jelly, various fritters, and namul were all good options for eating together. The one small letdown was that I wish there'd been another mild, non-spicy option for kids, like a seaweed soup. ![Japchae and acorn jelly served on a kids' tray](https://img.superchart.com/images/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik-19-smnm9-966.webp) High chairs available ![High chair at Boriook Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik-20-1a79u-966.webp) Suwon Pay accepted ## Is Boriook Main Branch worth a visit with kids? Visiting with my child this time, I could see why families keep coming here. Boriook Main Branch, a Suwon Korean restaurant that both adults and kids enjoyed, feels like a solid family restaurant near Mangpo Station. If you like hearty barley rice, fresh namul, and home-style side dishes, give it a try :) ## Boriook Main Branch hours and parking 📍99 Yeongtong-ro 200beon-gil, Yeongtong-gu, Suwon-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - Open every day - Opens at 10:00 - Break time 15:00-16:30 - Last order 20:30 - Closes at 21:00 ![Free parking space in front of the building](https://img.superchart.com/images/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik-21-e5tfz-966.webp) Free parking, available in front of the building ![Representative image of Boriook Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik-22-m7rqk-1200.webp) ## Where it is - Boriook Main Branch (보리옥 본점) - 99 Yeongtong-ro 200beon-gil, Yeongtong-gu, Suwon-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 수원시 영통구 영통로200번길 99 1층 - 37.2441834, 127.0620458 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%B3%B4%EB%A6%AC%EC%98%A5%20%EB%B3%B8%EC%A0%90/@37.2441834,127.0620458,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@paju-riverside-ladle/boriok-suwon-yeongtong-family-hanjeongsik/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
