If you’re a fan of coastal cities, Yeosu is one of the places that’ll probably be on your radar when you travel to Korea. Amongst the many places in Yeosu, Moi Fin Cafe stands out and is one we highly recommend as a must-visit when you’re there.
Large Cafe in Yeosu With Multiple Floors
While ocean-view cafes are aplenty in Korea, the scale of it is unmatched. There are 5 floors, and each floor comes with ceiling-to-floor windows, allowing all its customers to enjoy an unobstructed view of the ocean. It also lets in lots of natural light, which goes well with Moi Fin’s clean, modern, white interior.
One of our favourite corners of the cafe was this area where levels 1 and 2 are connected via bleacher steps. When heading up, you might not notice it but once you turn back, you’ll get a gorgeous view of the blue ocean!
Menu at Moi Fin
Ordering at Moi Fin is straightforward – they have self-service booths alongside counter-payment methods.
One thing to note is that it’s compulsory to order at least 1 beverage per pax here – a rule several cafes in Korea observe.
The bakery cafe serves up a wide range of bakes you can choose from before heading to one of their self-serve microwaves/toaster ovens to heat up after payment.
Bakes here range from items like Cookies, which come in variations such as Brown Cheese (5,000won), Pecan Chocolate (5,000won), and Walnut Chocochip (5,000won). They also have items like Chive Cream Cheese Salt Bread (7,000won), Red Bean Butter Croissant (8,500won), a wide range of cronuts like Kaya Coconut Butter Cream, Lotus Butter Cream & more!
Apart from these more special bakes, they also have classic offerings like Kouign Amann, Pain Au Chocolat, etc.
Drink-wise, they have the usual coffee offerings, alongside cold brew, tea lattes, juices, and ades. They also serve a Pororo beverage for kids here!
Apart from all these, the cafe also offers a range of products like coffee beans, bottles, and drip bags which make great gifts for your coffee-loving friends.
What We Tried At Moi Fin
We went for one of their three signature beverages, which was the Moi Fin Orange Sunset (8,500won). The drink combines orange juice, grapefruit, and berries into a beautiful gradient drink. It was refreshing but slightly sweet for us.
As for their bakes, we managed to grab the last Crispy Crunch Cronut (7,500won) which was their rendition of the popular Korean ice cream, Dwaeji Bar.
Inside was a mixture of strawberry jam and custard, with the pastry topped with crunchy bits of chocolate. This was satisfyingly crunchy, flaky, and a nice blend of flavours – with neither the strawberry, custard, or chocolate overpowering each other.
There was also the Mugwort Injeolmi Cookie (5,000won) which had a nice fragrance of mugwort! The texture of the cookie was soft and chewy, just how we liked it.
Getting to Moi Fin Cafe in Yeosu
Grabbing a taxi in Yeosu is not difficult as compared to more rural parts of Korea. You can just simply use one of the many transport apps available, such as KakaoTaxi.
The good news is, that Moi Fin also offers free shuttle bus services from Yeosu-Expo KTX Station which will bring you directly to the cafe. All you need to do is to look out for this bus!
The outlet we visited was Moi Fin Sky, but they also have another outlet nearby known as Moi Fin Ocean – which can be easily accessed via their free shuttle bus service right in front of the cafe.
