YesTips from parents who've been
💡 Weekday lunchtime (11:30-13:00) fills with office workers, which makes a stroller hard to manage.
💡 There are no high chairs, so a child who cannot sit alone will need to be held.
Tips for going with kids
💡 The original gimbap is not spicy and comes in bite-sized pieces — a safe first taste of Korean bunsik.
💡 Ask for the pork cutlet sauce on the side and it is easier for a child to eat.
💡 The bulgogi pot has a sweet soy broth, so stir it through rice for a full meal.
Travelling in Korea
💡 You order from a tablet on the table with photos, so no Korean is needed.
💡 Gimbap Cheonguk is a well-known chain where many Korean bunsik dishes are served in one place.
💡 Side dishes and hot broth are self-service.
