15 Daejong-ro 480beon-gil, Jung-gu, Daejeon

Visit & opening

Main store lists 08:00–22:00 daily. Check holiday notices.

What to order & how

Choose a few breads first and confirm ingredients on the labels. Ask how long filled or chilled items can stay unrefrigerated before taking them on a train.

Getting there

Reach Daejeon by train, then compare the local route to Jungangno. Keep a return-train buffer instead of joining a queue just before departure.

Pair with a trip

Pair the bakery with the Eunhaeng-dong central streets. Treat DCC as another district, not the same short walk.

대전 유성구 궁동로18번길 45 2층

Visit & opening

Check today’s opening, break time, last order and sold-out notices with the exact branch. A queue registration is not a confirmed table; ask how a visitor without a Korean phone number can receive the call.

What to order & how

Compare a single cutlet plate and combination set before ordering sides. Check cheese, egg, shrimp and noodle ingredients according to the selected set.

Getting there

Use Yuseong’s university district and confirm the second-floor entrance. Ask about step-free access if stairs are unsuitable.

Pair with a trip

Combine with Gung-dong; Yuseong hot springs or Expo Park require an onward ride.
