Gwangalli ocean-view café, pizza brunch with a baby: Working Holiday

To celebrate our baby turning 8 months old, our family went on our first long-distance trip, to Busan and Miryang. It's so far away that we never dared to go when the baby was tiny, but now the baby has grown quite a bit, rides well in the car and can go longer between feedings, so we finally made it haha. Day one in Busan! We booked a place to stay in Gwangalli, and near it we had brunch at Working Holiday Millak (워킹홀리데이앤나잇), a brand-new café in Millak that's a real find :)

Where is Working Holiday Millak, and can you park?

Working Holiday Millak is on the 7th floor of a big building (Bada Maru) with a full view of Gwangalli waterfront park. There aren't many cafés in Gwangalli with parking, but this one offers 1 hour of free parking, and it's so large that it's great to visit with a baby.

Interior and atmosphere of this big Millak café

The vibe was amazing from the moment we walked in... The interior is so trendy and stylish that my jaw dropped. And it's huge!!

They sell wine and beer too, so a beer with pizza in the evening would be so good! Though for parents who came with a baby, it's just a pie in the sky.. 😭

A Gwangalli café for babies: are there baby chairs?

Working Holiday Millak has several baby chairs ready, so it's perfect if you need to take a baby to a café in Gwangalli :)

Floor-to-ceiling ocean view and terrace over Gwangalli Beach

The whole front of Working Holiday Millak is floor-to-ceiling windows, so you can see all of Gwangalli Beach, and it's gorgeous! There aren't many big ocean-view cafés in Gwangalli, and this was a view that makes you happy just looking at it haha.

The ceilings are high, and the decor pieces everywhere are tasteful and pretty, so I spent a long time looking around.

We first sat at a table by the outdoor terrace, but after a while we moved!! because I worried the sea breeze might make the baby cold. When the weather gets warmer, I'd love to sit out on the terrace with a coffee. The day we went, a foreign guy was reading a book over his coffee there, and I thought it was a scene from a movie! So cool and relaxed, don't you think?!

How to order at Working Holiday Millak, and menu prices

You order at the kiosk at the front of the café.

We'd already eaten a meal, so we said let's just have snacks! But the food looked so good that we ordered some right away lol. Here's what we got :)

• Super Supreme pizza ₩25,000
• Fried squid ₩13,000
• Milkshake ₩7,000
• Lemon peach ade ₩7,500

Can you see the view..? Isn't it amazing ㅠㅠ Doesn't it totally have an overseas vibe…?

While the order was being prepared, we went out to the café terrace to take in the ocean view.

Fried squid with aioli sauce: how did it taste?

The first dish out was the fried squid (₩13,000)! It looks crunchy just from the photo, right! It'd also make a great drinking snack, so with a beer and fried squid while looking at the sea, I bet you'd feel like you have the whole world~?!

You dip it generously in the aioli sauce that comes with it. So crunchy, tangy and tasty :)

An unexpected gift at Working Holiday Millak

And then we got a gift,, a couple sitting across from us suddenly came over and said in a shy voice..

You looked so lovely that we took a photo. Is it okay if we send it to you?

Oh my gosh,,, of course ㅠㅠㅠㅠ We were even more touched by their kind hearts that day. I hope they stay healthy and happy ⭐️

Super Supreme pizza and drinks: is the portion enough for a meal?

And just like that, everything was ready! Portions at Working Holiday Millak aren't small, so it was plenty for a meal!

The Super Supreme pizza (₩25,000) :) Topped with mushrooms, bell peppers, red onion and several kinds of ham, so it was a fun pizza to eat!

The peach lemon ade :) This was so tangy and delicious. If you like juicy, zesty drinks, definitely order it.

And a rich, creamy milkshake to finish! A delicious, happy place! Great for coffee and great for brunch, I recommend Working Holiday Millak as a new café in Gwangalli~!
