Arriving at 9:55am on a weekday Friday with about 15 people ahead, the writer waited about 10 minutes, then bought the Daesang (Grand Prize), grain and rye barley loaves plus mascarpone milk cream. The nut-packed rye barley loaf was the favorite.

Every time I walked past, the line was so long that I kept telling myself I had to try it someday, and I finally did haha. Let me give you the conclusion first: ![Loaves bought at Chamsae Bori Sikppang Bucheon main branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-02-1jnz2-900.webp) I understood right away why people do the open run (lining up before opening). It was delicious! Haha. I heard it was on the TV show Master of Living (생활의 달인) and was picked as the number one loaf in Korea, and it's clearly not famous for nothing. I think I'll be coming to Chamsae Bori Sikppang Bucheon main branch often for my bread now. ![Storefront of Chamsae Bori Sikppang Bucheon main branch on Gyeongin-ro, Bucheon](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-03-a9hff-900.webp) ## How long is the weekday morning line at Chamsae Bori Sikppang in Bucheon? Even on weekday mornings, an open run is a must at Chamsae Bori Sikppang Bucheon main branch. It opens at 10am, and when I arrived around 9:55am on a Friday, about 15 people were already in line. I waited about 10 minutes and got in around 10:10. I'd actually recommend visiting around 10:20. ![Queue outside Chamsae Bori Sikppang before opening on a weekday morning](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-04-1radc-900.webp) There were already about 15 people ahead of me. It opens at 10, and everyone is so diligent! I thought there wouldn't be many on a weekday morning!!! About 6 groups went in all at once when it opened, and after that it ran on a one-out, one-in basis. If it's like this on a weekday morning, weekends must be even longer. Still, turnover is fast, so I didn't wait as long as I expected. ## Chamsae Bori Sikppang menu and prices ![Loaf menu and prices at Chamsae Bori Sikppang Bucheon main branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-05-f6sly-900.webp) Chamsae Bori Sikppang Bucheon main branch sold just three kinds of loaf. - Daesang barley loaf (Grand Prize barley loaf) ₩6,000 - Grain barley loaf ₩6,500 - Rye barley loaf ₩3,700 They also sell strawberry jam, mascarpone milk cream, madeleines and other items. We bought the Daesang barley, grain barley and rye barley loaves, and the mascarpone milk cream, ![Three barley loaves and mascarpone milk cream purchase](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-06-1anzm-900.webp) like this. ## Is the mascarpone milk cream worth buying with the bread? When you walk into Chamsae Bori Sikppang Bucheon main branch, you can taste the bread and the mascarpone milk cream, and honestly ![Bread and mascarpone milk cream samples inside the shop](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-07-4sjcp-900.webp) ![Sample bread and cream at Chamsae Bori Sikppang](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-08-1dbcm-900.webp) ![Chamsae Bori Sikppang mascarpone milk cream](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-09-7q6ow-900.webp) Definitely buy the mascarpone milk cream with it!! I'm being serious, it's crazy good. ![Mascarpone milk cream with a rich milk aroma](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-10-epw5k-900.webp) The milk aroma is sooo rich and it's incredibly nutty. It's not just a cream with strong sweetness; it's full of a refined, smooth milk flavor, so it goes really well with the bread. ![Mascarpone milk cream served with bread](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-11-epynn-900.webp) The amount is also quite generous, plenty to go with a loaf of bread. Next time I visit I'll definitely buy the cream again. ## The best loaf: nut-packed rye barley Of the three loaves at Chamsae Bori Sikppang, the one I personally liked best was the rye barley loaf. It's generously packed with nuts, so it's fun to chew, and it's subtly sweet and moist. ![Chamsae Bori Sikppang rye barley loaf](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-12-1exhz-900.webp) ![The rye barley loaf, the writer's favorite](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-13-9y3wt-900.webp) The nuts are really packed in without holding back, so it's fun to chew, ![Rye barley loaf with nuts](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-14-1we89-900.webp) ![Nuts inside the rye barley loaf](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-15-1hvt3-900.webp) and there's a subtle sweetness too, so I kept reaching for more. The texture is moist and soft, ![Moist, soft texture of the rye barley loaf](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-16-1s9p8-900.webp) and the nutty flavor rises the more you chew. I was very satisfied. ### Are the Daesang and grain barley loaves good for sandwiches? The Daesang barley and grain barley loaves were also really moist and soft. I often pack sandwiches for lunch, ![Grain barley loaf, good for sandwiches](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-17-hnwtd-900.webp) and I thought the grain barley loaf would be really good for sandwiches. Since it's a grain loaf, it's filling, and I could see why many people looking for a blood-sugar-friendly diet buy it. ![Chamsae Bori Sikppang grain barley loaf](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-18-afnoc-900.webp) ## Plain barley bread that won over a sweets lover Now that I've tried it, I get why it's so famous. I normally really love sweet desserts like tiramisu, chocolate bread and cream buns, ![Plain barley loaf from Chamsae Bori Sikppang](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-19-1xwu9-900.webp) ![Cross-section of a Chamsae Bori Sikppang barley loaf](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-20-1ykoy-900.webp) so at first I thought, how good can plain bread really be? But… ![Barley loaf from Chamsae Bori Sikppang with a bite taken](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-21-1e6lp-m-900.webp) One bite completely changed my mind. It wins on nutty, plain flavor with no overpowering sweetness, and I still kept reaching for more. The texture is really moist too, ![Moist Chamsae Bori Sikppang barley loaf](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-22-rj2bt-m-900.webp) ![Flavorful Chamsae Bori Sikppang barley loaf](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-23-1yf66-900.webp) and you can taste the flavor in the bread itself, so I immediately understood why it was featured on SBS's Master of Living and recognized as the best loaf in Korea. ## Why older locals line up at this Bucheon bakery What impressed me most at Chamsae Bori Sikppang Bucheon main branch was ![Customers waiting before opening outside Chamsae Bori Sikppang Bucheon main branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run/bucheon-barley-bread-friday-open-run-24-ro2pk-m-900.webp) that most of the people lined up before opening were older customers. And they weren't buying just one or two loaves; they left with armfuls. Seeing that makes me trust the place even more haha. A bakery that has been loved steadily for so long clearly has its reasons. ## Verdict: is Chamsae Bori Sikppang worth the opening line? - A leading Bucheon loaf bakery with an open run even on weekday mornings - Soft, moist, healthy bread - Also recommended for blood-sugar-conscious diets or sandwiches - Definitely buy the mascarpone milk cream with it!! - A taste that makes the claim of Korea's number one loaf believable, really good!!
