Haeundae brunch cafe or Dalmaji Hill cafe? How to spend a slow morning in a forest greenhouse
When to arrive, where to sit, what to order and how to get here from Haeundae Station
Looking for a Haeundae brunch cafe away from the beach crowds? Here is how to spend a slow morning at a forest greenhouse cafe on Dalmaji Hill: when to arrive, where to sit and what to order.
If you are looking for a Haeundae brunch cafe where the morning feels slow, go up the hill instead of down to the beach. Arrive between 10:00 and noon, when the cafe has just opened and the car park is still quiet.
Fruiterie Forest is a glass greenhouse cafe at 491 Dalmaji-gil, Haeundae, at the end of a forest lane. It is not a sea-view cafe; it is surrounded by trees and bamboo, which is exactly why people who know Busan well come here for a quieter start to the day.
Why a Dalmaji Hill cafe for brunch
Dalmaji Hill sits between Haeundae Beach and Songjeong. Most visitors drive along the coastal road and never turn into the trees. A Dalmaji Hill cafe in the forest gives you what the beach in the morning rarely does: shade, birdsong and space between the tables. The cafe is divided into seven areas, so guests spread out instead of crowding one room. If you are comparing Dalmaji Hill cafe options, look at the seats before the menu.
When to arrive
On weekends the car park starts to fill around noon and is busiest around 15:00 to 16:00. If you want the slowest version of a Haeundae brunch cafe morning, come right after opening at 10:00. On weekdays the car park rarely fills, and one drink per person comes with one free Americano refill.
Where to sit
The large greenhouse has 24 seats and the small greenhouse 10, with daylight coming through the glass roof. If you are on your own, the window bar seats face the bamboo side by side. For two, the second-floor deck has 40 seats facing the forest. The forest seats (28) sit among the trees, and dogs on a lead are welcome there.
What to order
Cold-pressed juices are pressed each morning from seasonal fruit and vegetables, with no added water or syrup. The brunch plate comes with seasonal fruit, and the baby castella is baked on site. From October 16 the seasonal drink is a pear smoothie. For a Haeundae brunch cafe order that lasts the whole morning, start with a juice and the brunch plate. Prices are on the menu page.
Getting here
From Haeundae Station it is a 14-minute drive; from Songjeong Station, 4 minutes. There are 20 free parking spaces in front of the cafe. As the road climbs Dalmaji Hill, the sea falls behind you and trees close in on both sides; that is when you are almost at this Dalmaji Hill cafe.
