The Bread Blue 더브레드블루 - Sinchon's Very Own Vegan Bakery 신촌 채식빵집

There used to be two vegan restaurants in Sinchon, The Bread Blue being one of them and the other being Loving Hut.  However, Loving Hut closed down and only The Bread Blue remains.  Rather than being a full on restaurant though, The Bread Blue is a bakery.

Let me begin by saying the bread that you find in Korea tends be a little bit different than what you find in the west.  The bread over here tends to be a quite a bit sweeter and extremely light and airy which is fine, but sometimes you crave your good old western bread that we westerners grew up with.  Although the bread and The Bread Blue is not exactly like the bread that you are going to find at your local bakery in the west, it is a whole lot closer than the stuff that you'll find at almost any other bakery.

The bread in this place is absolutely delicious.  It is think and there are all different kinds of cookies and cakes to focaccia.  Moreover, a lot of the breads at this place are also unique.  There are some that are made with actual vegetables, vegetable pastes, beans, olives or other types of things that you wouldn't expect to see at a bakery in Korea.

This is probably my favorite bakery in the area, and I frequent it for my morning snack, something to eat or to go with meals.  In addition to the excellent quality of the bread, this place also has a pretty reasonably sized cafe that has a nice and quiet atmosphere that would be good go with a friend or to study.  They also make a variety of drinks, but I have never tried any of them so I cannot comment on their quality.
