After visiting the Vincent van Gogh Exhibition and making my own diffuser at Scented Musée in Heyri Art Village,
I stopped by Gardener’s Café. 🥐✨
GARDENUS
A Bakery Café!
Behind the glass doors, an array of bread and pastries were lined up! You get to choose and pick them yourself.
Simply grab a tray, put on the provided gloves, and you’re ready to go!
Pain au Chocolat (4,400 KRW)
I had to get this! Chocolate-filled goodness. ❤️
Instead of using tongs, you use your gloved hands to grab the bread. Surprisingly, it felt more hygienic and kept the bread intact!
Almond Croissant (4,900 KRW)
I was torn between this and the regular croissant (3,700 KRW), but the almond one won!

Gardener’s has three floors of seating, both indoor and outdoor, and it's super spacious!
1st Floor: This floor has outdoor seating, but when I visited, it had just stopped raining, so the outdoor area was still empty.
The indoor seating here includes cozy sofas, but it can get a bit busy since it’s close to the bakery counter.
There’s also an elevator for convenience and water stations on each floor where you can grab hot water, cold water, or tea!
There are plenty of seats here, including both indoor and outdoor tables
They also change the artwork on display every season, adding a bit of artistic flair!
I loved the cozy sofas, perfect for relaxing.
3rd Floor & Rooftop
The rooftop is perfect for enjoying nice weather, but be careful if you have little ones, as it’s an open space.
The rooftop offers stunning views of the surrounding landscape, which I absolutely loved. 🌳
For those looking for some peace and quiet, Gardener's also has no-kids zones.
I found a lovely spot inside after sitting outside for a while, just to escape the heat and enjoy the air conditioning.
The entire indoor space is beautifully decorated with plants and flowers, creating a lush, relaxing atmosphere. 🌸
I ended up sitting by the large windows, which offered a beautiful view of the trees outside.
It was such a peaceful spot to enjoy my treats and take some photos. 📸
Speaking of photos, Gardener's is perfect for Instagram!
From the beautifully designed indoor spaces filled with greenery to the stunning outdoor seating areas, you can snap gorgeous pictures anywhere in the café.
After sitting down, I dove into my croissants. The Almond Croissant was crispy and filled with sweet blueberry jam—delicious!
The Pain au Chocolat was rich and indulgent, with chocolate both inside and out.
For drinks, the Strawberry Latte was filled with chunks of fresh strawberries, just the way I like it. 🍫🍓
As the weather cleared up, the sky turned a beautiful shade, and it was the perfect moment to relax and enjoy the peaceful vibe of the café.
The space is stunning, the food is delightful, and I already have a list of pastries I want to try next time! Gardener’s Café is definitely a spot I’ll be returning to. 🌿💕
I even got a few compliments on my photos, which made the experience even better! 😄
