White ghost and pumpkin balloons at the entrance of the red brick building give it a strong Halloween feel. Red Brick Café in Pyeongtaek also allows dogs indoors, so it's a great place to stop by with your pet.
The display case near the entrance of Red Brick Café in Pyeongtaek is decked out in blood-red gauze for a spooky look. Cakes, bread, and beer sit side by side, and there's an unmanned vending machine next to it, making it fun to look around.
On the Red Brick Café counter sat a skull sculpture and a machine covered in stickers. The shelves are packed with blankets, dolls, and toy cars, so it's fun to scan every corner.
White spider webs hang from the ceiling and pumpkins sit on the counter, filling the café with Halloween spirit. Staff dressed as a nurse and a banana are preparing drinks, making it fun from the moment you order.
This is the interior of Red Brick Café in Pyeongtaek, where the sea and lawn stretch out beyond the large windows. With high ceilings, tables and chairs set out generously, and a small game machine on one side, it's a comfortable place to rest no matter where you sit.
Red Brick Café has a row of electronic dart machines, a rare sight in a café. The view outside comes through the large windows, so it's a nice place to have a drink and throw a round of darts.
Red Brick Café is a café where you can bring your pet inside. Pets are only allowed on the first floor and must be kept on a leash, so it's a good idea to read the notice before you visit.
The entrance is full of smiling ghosts and pumpkin balloons, so you can feel Halloween before you even step inside. Through the round window you can see a pink sunset and the sea, making it a great spot for photos.
The second floor of Red Brick Café is cozier than the first, but the sea is visible through the large windows and folding glass doors. With a long table and plush chairs, it's a great spot to relax with your group.
Step through the door on the second floor and you'll find a terrace where every pillar and bench is packed with graffiti. It's a great spot for photos with the sea as a backdrop.
Past the terrace railing, you can take in the park with its walking path and the calm sea in one view. On a sunny day, it's a great spot to simply gaze out the window and zone out.
The drink came in a cup with a Red Brick Café logo sticker, topped with a generous swirl of cream. It's a nice drink to enjoy slowly at a sunlit table.
The Red Brick Café menu board lists a wide range of drinks, from coffee to tea, ades, and smoothies. The signature salt coffee is right at the top.
The park in front of the café has a fountain shooting up streams of water, along with benches and a pavilion. It's a lovely place for a stroll around sunset.
In the park in front of Red Brick Café, autumn sunlight shining through the mist from the fountain creates a small rainbow. It's a nice place to rest while strolling slowly among the trees in their autumn colors.
The park in front of Red Brick Café has a gravel walkway where the tidal flat and sea stretch out beyond blue railings. At dusk the sky turns orange, making it a lovely place for a walk.
At the Gwongwan-ri seaside, the sun settles beyond the mountain ridge and the sky and sea are tinted completely orange. It's a great spot to end the day watching the sunset.
As the sun half disappears behind the mountain ridge, the sky spreads into a deep orange and light stretches long across the calm sea. Gwongwan-ri is a lovely place to linger at dusk and watch the sunset.

I visited Red Brick Café, located at 165 Seodong-daero, Hyeondeok-myeon, Pyeongtaek-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea, on the ground floor, near Pyeongtaek Port. I stopped by this cafe to watch the sunset.

The day I visited happened to be Halloween. The whole place was decorated for the occasion, and the staff were dressed up to match. There were also several machines you wouldn't normally see in a regular cafe, and it was the first time I had ever seen darts in a cafe.

There are seats on the second floor too. The interior is smaller than the first floor, and it leads out to a terrace. Stepping onto the terrace, you find another space with a different concept, but since the weather was getting chilly, the tables had been gathered in one corner.

This is also a pet-friendly cafe. There were indeed many customers inside with their dogs.

The prices were on the high side. It's understandable for a place with such a great view, but it's undeniably a bit of a burden. I ordered the salt coffee, which seemed to be the signature menu item. I had enjoyed a salt coffee near Seolleung Station before, so I picked it with high expectations, but this drink wasn't satisfying. I could barely smell any coffee aroma, and the coffee flavor wasn't distinct either. The saltiness and aroma of the salt were weak, and even the sweetness of the whipped cream was lacking.

One good point is that there's a park like a walking trail in front of the cafe. It felt unfinished, so I thought it would be nice if it became more lively in the future. Right now, it looked like many people were car camping or pitching tents to spend the night watching the sunset.

The drinks were disappointing, but the sunset was truly beautiful.
