Yeongjong bakery café for garlic and fig bagels: Pink Wall Cafe

The first thing I noticed at Pink Wall Cafe (핑크월카페) in Yeongjong was its pink walls. After taking a photo outside and going in, I found a wide selection of bagels made in-house. This time, I chose garlic and fig bagels to have with drinks.

Where is Pink Wall Cafe, and is there parking?

The address is 111 Yongyuseo-ro, Yeongjong-gu, Incheon, South Korea, Building 2. The original post listed hours as 10:30 AM to 8:30 PM on weekdays and 10:00 AM to 8:30 PM on Saturdays and Sundays. Last orders were listed as 8:00 PM.

When I arrived, I looked around the parking area first. There was parking available, making it easy to stop by by car.

After getting out of the car, I saw a photo spot decorated with pink walls alongside the pink building. The exterior suited the café's name, so I took a photo before heading inside.

What bagels are available, and how much are the baked goods?

The café sold bagels made in-house. There was a wide range, including salt, fig, basil tomato, sweet red bean, cheese, mocha cream cheese, olive, sweet potato, bacon jalapeño, scallion cheese, and garlic. Besides bagels, there were mocha bun croissants, almond croissants, and apple pie; bakery items were generally around ₩5,000–₩6,500.

For cake, there were carrot cake and tiramisu cake. However, the carrot cake was sold out when I visited on a weekend afternoon, which was disappointing. Organic juice for children was also sold on one side.

At the time of my visit, cream cheese was provided free with a bagel purchase. I could choose from plain, blueberry, scallion cream cheese, and strawberry jam.

What are the drink options and how do you order?

The drink selection included coffee, lattes, ades, and tea. Signature drinks included Pink Wall Ade, Lemonicano, Amerija-mong, and peach yogurt.

I used the in-store kiosk to order and pay for drinks. During my visit, there was also an event giving out sangtu-gwaja (Korean pastry) for writing a receipt review.

Are weekend seats spacious, and can you bring pets?

The interior was more spacious than I expected, with plenty of seating. I was able to sit comfortably and spend time there on the weekend I visited. It was introduced as a pet-friendly café, and guests who came with dogs or cats were using the outdoor terrace seating.

The terrace was also decorated to match the café's atmosphere. Walking straight through from the entrance, I came to another entrance, where there was more parking and terrace seating.

There were pink decorative items throughout the interior as well. The ceiling lights, dolls, and even the high chair were pink, and there was a pink full-length mirror on one side for photos. Beyond the pink walls, it was also fun to look around at the décor.

How did the coffee and peach yogurt taste?

I ordered an iced Americano, iced latte, omija ade, and peach yogurt. The Americano and latte were pleasantly good. I do not prefer strongly acidic coffee, and the coffee here suited my taste because the acidity was not pronounced; it also went well with the bread.

The omija ade was refreshing and tangy, making it a good alternative to coffee. The signature peach yogurt paired a sweet flavor nicely with the smooth taste of yogurt.

Which cream cheeses suited the garlic and fig bagels?

When I ordered the garlic and fig bagels, I chose cream cheese as well. I was told I could select up to two, so I asked a staff member for recommendations. They recommended scallion cream cheese with the garlic bagel and blueberry cream cheese with the fig bagel.

The garlic bagel had a generous amount of garlic cream cheese inside. The garlic flavor was rich in every bite, and the filling alone gave it enough flavor that it was good even without adding the scallion cream cheese.

The fig bagel had a sweet filling that seemed like mashed fig. Thanks to its soft, jam-like texture, the bagel had a subtle sweetness even on its own. The blueberry cream cheese added a fresh, smooth flavor, and this pairing worked well too.

At Pink Wall Cafe, I enjoyed taking photos in the pink space and pairing bagels with cream cheese. It was disappointing that the carrot cake was sold out, but I was satisfied with the two bagels I tried and the coffee. With its spacious interior, terrace, and high chair, it also seemed suitable for a date or a family outing.
