Foreigner friendly cafe in Busan: can you order from an English menu at a forest café?

If you are looking for a foreigner friendly cafe in Busan, you can order from an English menu here: the menu is available in English through online ordering on your phone, and walk-ins are welcome, so you do not need a reservation. We are 4 minutes by car from Songjeong Station and 14 minutes from Haeundae Station, with free parking for 20 cars in front.

Fruiterie Forest is a forest-garden café at 491 Dalmaji-gil, Haeundae-gu, Busan.

How ordering works

Open the online menu on your phone and switch it to English; you can read every drink and dessert before you choose. If anything is unclear, ask at the counter. Ordering this way means you do not have to stand in a queue at the till, which is why the English menu is the easiest way in for first-time visitors. A foreigner friendly cafe in Busan, to us, simply means that the menu, the seats and the way in are easy to read without Korean.

Where to sit

There are seven seating areas. The two glass greenhouses sit inside the garden: the large one has 24 seats at tables for four or six, and the small one has 10 seats around one table. The main hall has 40 seats with a window bar facing the forest. Upstairs, the second-floor deck has 40 seats, and on cold days there is an indoor window bar on the second floor. The 28 forest seats are outside among the trees.

What to order first

Start with a cold-pressed juice or a smoothie made from the fruit that came in that day; we let fruit set the sweetness. Baby castella is easy to share. In winter, warm drinks such as fruit tea and vin chaud join the menu, and the English menu lists what is on that day. Prices are on the menu page.

A space worth the detour

Our space is featured in HAY Professionals Cases, so if you notice furniture and light, look around the hall before you sit. Travellers who look for a foreigner friendly cafe in Busan often want somewhere calm between the beach and the city; Fruiterie Forest is on the hill above, among bamboo and trees.

With kids or dogs

There is a slope inside, so strollers reach any seat, and high chairs are available at the counter. Dogs on a leash are welcome in the indoor annex with 23 seats and in outdoor areas except the Moontan Rooftop.
