Wrapping up a two-day trip to Busan requires the perfect balance of caffeine and sweets. Our final day led us to Scruffy (스크러피), a cafe famous for its decadent egg tarts and warm, inviting atmosphere. Located near Gwangalli, this spot is perfect for those looking to relax in a beautifully decorated space that retains a cozy, festive vibe even after the holidays.
Beyond the delicious desserts, the day was filled with heartfelt moments, from writing letters to our future selves at Gwangalli Beach to capturing the perfect group photos against the backdrop of the crashing waves. It was a day of wholesome healing, coffee toasts, and the bittersweet feeling of a wonderful journey coming to an end.
Morning at Scruffy: Aesthetic Interiors and Egg Tart Heaven
Arriving a bit early gave us a chance to appreciate the thoughtful interior design of Scruffy. The cafe features a mix of comfortable sofas and group seating, making it an excellent choice for both solo travelers and groups of friends. The lingering Christmas decorations added a touch of magic to the space as we waited for the noon opening.
Sweet Indulgence: Butter Caramel Coffee and Signature Tarts
As soon as the clock struck twelve, the egg tart zone was filled with classic, chocolate, and coffee-flavored treats. We paired these with a rich butter caramel coffee that perfectly balanced salty and sweet notes. A surprise highlight was the signature lime black tea we received as a service—a refreshing drink that I’ll definitely be ordering on my next visit.
Emotional Healing at Gwangalli Beach
After our caffeine boost, we took a stroll down to Gwangalli Beach. The ocean air was crisp, and for the first time this trip, we got up close to the powerful waves. The beach offered a special "Slow Letter" section, where we wrote messages to our future selves to be delivered a year from now. It was a moment of reflection and laughter as we imagined where we would be in 2026.
Capturing the Perfect Busan Silhouette
No trip to Busan is complete without a photoshoot. With the help of some "Galaxy" magic to edit out background distractions, we captured several profile-worthy shots along the shoreline. Despite the cold, the energy was high as we took group photos together, documenting our friendship against the iconic Busan bridge and sea.
If you could send a letter to your future self today, what's the one piece of advice or hope you would write down? Also, for your next Busan trip, would you prefer a cozy cafe like Scruffy or a more active day exploring the coastal trails? Let me know your favorite Busan healing spots!
