The store is a BBQ Village type, with a terrace and rooftop reminiscent of overseas resorts, covering approximately 624.2㎡ (190 pyeong, 3 floors) and a total of 236 seats. Located at the starting point of Cheonggyecheon, which is frequently visited by nearby residents and foreign tourists, it provides beautiful landscaping and a refreshing sense of space.


The store sells a variety of BBQ chicken menus including Golden Olive Chicken, as well as over 70 different items such as hamburgers, pasta, pizza, and platters. Additionally, for the first time in a BBQ store, it offers three types of sandwiches including wine, bulgogi, teriyaki, and ham and egg sandwiches, satisfying the tastes of busy office workers near the store. It also meets the needs of customers who want various alcoholic beverages by selling wine, draft beer, highballs, craft beer, and cocktails.



A BBQ representative stated, “Since we have entered a key commercial area that once attracted up to 500,000 foreign tourists, we expect significant brand exposure effects,” adding, “We will strive to become a new landmark of Cheonggye Plaza with differentiated products and services from existing stores.”
