Donut café in Heyri, Paju for a sunset date: apple donut at Heuksadang
In short
Heuksadang (흑사당) is a handmade donut café in a standalone two-story building on Heirimaeul-gil in Heyri Village, Paju, Gyeonggi. On her second visit, the writer went with her husband around sunset on a weekday, when the signature crème brûlée donut had already sold out, so they had the remaining chocolate and apple donuts with a latte and a vanilla latte. Even with few donuts left to choose from, Heuksadang's chewy handmade donuts and the second-floor sunset view made it a worthy Heyri Village date spot.

Lots of people come to Heyri Village for a day trip or a date from Seoul, right? Here's a donut spot worth visiting when you do: Heuksadang (흑사당) in Heyri Village, Paju!
Heuksadang hours and parking
Heuksadang is at 37-10 Heirimaeul-gil, Tanhyeon-myeon, Paju-si, Gyeonggi-do. It's open year-round: 11:00–19:30 on weekdays (Mon–Fri) and 10:00–21:00 on weekends (Sat–Sun). Parking is available too.
I like walking, so I parked right at the entrance to Heyri Village. But there's also a parking lot near Heuksadang itself, so park conveniently~
What are the interior and seating like?
Heuksadang is a café in a standalone two-story building in Heyri Village, with an outdoor terrace and a dog-friendly area. This was my second visit for a Heyri date. The first time I paid for it myself!
Besides the outdoor terrace, there's a dog-friendly area to the left of the entrance, so it's a dog-friendly café too~
There are round tables and long bar-table seats as well.
A whole standalone two-story building! The ceilings are high, so it feels open~
The second floor is also very spacious and comfortable, and it's even better when the sun is setting over Heyri Village!
There's a separate tray return and restrooms, so keep that in mind! 🤞
How many donut flavors are there? Do they sell out late in the day?
Heuksadang sells donuts in 13 flavors, including crème brûlée, pistachio, injeolmi (roasted soybean powder rice cake) and mugwort. They're popular, though, so if you go late there may only be a few left.
I guess I went too late. 😭 Only chocolate, apple and Dubai were left. T_T Crème brûlée is the signature donut, and that's what I had last time. I was planning to get it again, but nooo~ what a shame, what a shame.
Empty~~ ta-da~ Of course, it's a popular donut spot! 😂
Besides donuts, Heuksadang also has 4 kinds of bingsu (shaved ice dessert),
and a variety of drinks like coffee, ade and tea!
On my first visit I boxed up donuts and brought them home for my husband, which, ugh, felt a bit meh;; Today he came along, so~ haha. I ordered his favorite chocolate donut, my favorite apple donut, plus a latte and a vanilla latte 🙌
How does the chocolate donut taste?
Heuksadang's chocolate donut is topped with chocolate castella (sponge cake) crumbs and filled with a chocolate-milk-flavored cream. We took our order up to the second floor and found a seat~
A peaceful Heyri café at sunset 😘 First, my husband's favorite, the chocolate donut! On top, chocolate castella crumbs
and inside, chocolate cream!
The chocolate cream tastes a little like chocolate milk? If the cream were too sweet or too plentiful I'd definitely have scraped some off, but the sweetness and amount were just right to eat as is. The dough is handmade too, I guess, so it's chewy and not greasy.
How does the apple donut taste?
Heuksadang's apple donut has apple jam inside like an apple pie, so it's sweet with a slight tang. Next, my pick, the apple! Sweet with a little tartness, totally my taste 🧡
There were real pieces of apple, which added some chew, and made it a charming donut. Even though I picked from the limited leftovers, it was so good that I was in a great mood haha
How are the vanilla latte and the latte?
Heuksadang's vanilla latte is heavy and rich, while the latte is smooth and went well with the donuts. Next, coffee to enjoy alongside! This is my husband's pick, the vanilla latte. When I stirred it, I could feel how heavy it was.
It's really rich, a little different from a regular vanilla latte! It was a bit like old-style franchise coffee, and also like a dalgona (honeycomb toffee) latte! ha
The latte I ordered was very smooth and a perfect match for the donuts.
Watching the sunset, it was truly a perfect Heyri Village date!
A weekday sunset date in Heyri Village: Heuksadang overall
Unlike ordinary store-bought donuts, Heuksadang's come in many flavors and keep the chewiness of handmade donuts, so I think you should try them at least once. I had a date with my husband in Heyri Village on a weekday at sunset after a long time, and the quiet, so different from the bustling weekends, was just so nice.
Eat donuts, stroll around Heyri and look at things. Shall we make it this week's date? haha
