Haeri-dan-gil bakery café weekday takeout: egg tart, Low & Sweet

Where is Low & Sweet Bakery in Haeundae?

Low & Sweet Bakery is a bakery café on U-dong 1-ro 38beon-gagil, on Haeri-dan-gil in Haeundae-gu, Busan. It's open daily from 08:00 to 20:00, with last order at 19:30.

I finally made it there haha. I'd had Low & Sweet bookmarked every time I was near Haeundae, and with the weather turning cool it was perfect for a walk. Haeri-dan-gil runs along the old Donghae Nambu rail line and is packed with charming little details — a street where Busan's trendy side and vintage vibe blend just right. Wandering the alleys past hidden little prop shops and cafés with personality is genuinely fun, making it the perfect spot for an easy, healing stroll around Haeundae.

The exterior had such a lovely presence I could spot it from far away. Even on a weekday there were quite a lot of people — clearly a popular spot.

The terrace seating was exactly as pretty as it looked on Instagram, and plenty of people were taking photos by the entrance. I went inside for takeout, and the staff greeted me so warmly it set a great tone from the start.

Why choose Low & Sweet Bakery among Haeri-dan-gil cafés?

There are countless cafés on Haeri-dan-gil, but there's a clear reason to make Low & Sweet Bakery the one ☕️ The moment you step through the door, the deep coffee-bean aroma mixed with freshly baked bread fills the space and instantly lifts your mood 🥐

While looking over the menu I settled on the iced vanilla bean latte I'd been curious about, plus an egg tart and choco financier for dessert, all to go.

While waiting on my order I looked around the store — the cups and goods were arranged so neatly it was fun just browsing. While the coffee brewed, the roasted-bean aroma filling the space was such a treat for the nose ☕

The packing was done so carefully that carrying the shopping bag home kept me in a good mood the whole way. As soon as I got home, before the ice could melt, I took my first sip of the iced vanilla bean latte, and it drew an honest gasp.

How does the egg tart taste?

Low & Sweet Bakery's egg tart kept its pastry layers intact — you could feel the crispness the moment you pulled it apart. The filling inside was as smooth and moist as pudding, eye-opening from the very first bite.

No eggy smell at all, just vanilla and butter flavor working together in harmony — pair it with an Americano or latte and it'll disappear in no time 🥐

How rich is the choco financier?

The choco financier was truly heavy and intensely chocolatey through and through. The outside was slightly dense while the inside stayed moist — a texture chocolate lovers would absolutely go for.

It wasn't cheap-tasting chocolate at all — you could taste the bitterness and sweetness of proper dark chocolate together, and it paired perfectly with the coffee 🍫

I used to wonder where to go for coffee every time I headed to Haeundae, but now Low & Sweet Bakery is my definite go-to. The atmosphere, the bakery desserts, and the coffee all line up perfectly, so anyone visiting Haeundae should really check it out.

Next time I want to sit in and enjoy a warm latte at leisure, and work through the rest of the bakery's desserts one by one.

What makes the iced vanilla bean latte so popular?

The vanilla bean latte wasn't syrupy artificial sweetness — it had real vanilla bean specks and a deep, rich flavor that filled my mouth, and I instantly understood why everyone was after it. Coffee that's too sweet leaves a heavy aftertaste, but this one finished clean, growing more appealing with every sip 🧊

With real vanilla bean specks instead of artificial syrup, this deep, clean-tasting vanilla bean latte makes you nod along the moment you taste it — no wonder it's famous 🧊

Add in the textbook crisp-outside-soft-inside egg tart and the heavy, rich choco financier, and the coffee-and-dessert combo is a perfect match 🍫 With an Instagram-worthy exotic exterior and a terrace made for pretty photos, this is the Haeundae café you have to stop by if you're heading to Haeri-dan-gil ✨
