Cheonan bakery café with easy parking and salt bread: Geurimseu Cafe

Is parking easy at Geurimseu Cafe in Cheonan?

Geurimseu Cafe (그림스 카페) is a large brunch café in Dongnam-gu, Cheonan, and its parking lot is so wide and comfortable that even novice drivers can come without worrying. On days when I want to spend some relaxed time in Cheonan, this is the first place that comes to mind. It's a spot I really love, so I had to introduce it to you!

The moment you step out of the car, you get an open view and a stylish exposed-concrete building. The modern look blends oddly well with the natural scenery around it, so I'm in a good mood from the entrance.

Can you still bring pets to Geurimseu Cafe?

Geurimseu Cafe used to be famous as a great place to visit with pets, but because of a recent law change, entry with pets is reportedly restricted for the time being. Oh, this is news you definitely need to check!

I hear the café is working hard to prepare and improve things to make a safer, more comfortable space, so anyone who planned to come with their doggy friends will have to wait a little longer.

High ceilings and mountain-view windows: the atmosphere inside

The interior is a clean white space with high ceilings, and when you open the door it feels like your chest opens up too. Green plants placed here and there add life, and your eyes feel relaxed the whole time you stay.

The peaceful mountain view outside the windows gives you a sense of freedom you can never get in the city. Sitting by a sunny window, I always think there's no better place to forget a busy day and have time just for myself. That's why I love Geurimseu so much.

What breads does the Geurimseu Cafe bakery have?

The real reason I love Geurimseu is the bakery, which tempts you with a toasty aroma from the entrance. I honestly want to try every single bread here T_T

Geurimseu is famous for really good bread, and when you look around the bakery corner it's full of loaves you can tell were baked with care. If heaven exists, I think it might feel like this, haha

Salt bread is the pick, and there are several kinds

The cakes are really good too, but what I especially recommend is the salt bread (soegeumppang), plain and savory with a salty charm. One bite and the butter flavor fills your mouth. It's art!

• Plain salt bread
• Pollock roe mayo salt bread
• Red bean butter salt bread
• Butter tteok (butter rice cake), the current trend

There's even the trendy butter tteok, haha. There are plenty of other desserts that catch your eye just by how they look, so if you love bread, Geurimseu will feel like heaven.

Meals at Geurimseu Cafe: how was the basil cream shrimp pasta?

As a brunch café, Geurimseu has meals you can't skip. The pasta, loaded generously with fresh ingredients, is on par with a professional restaurant.

This time I ordered the basil cream shrimp pasta. What really moved me was the size of the shrimp! As you can see in the photos, it was packed with big, plump shrimp, and they had a great bite.
