Hello, donut lovers looking for a great donut shop! Today, I'm going to introduce you to the top 3 most famous donut shops in Korea. Last time, I introduced you to Randy's Donuts, which is a popular American donut but also popular in Korea. Today, I'm going to introduce you to Old Ferry Donuts!

Old Ferry Donuts is one of the oldest donut shops in Korea, boasting a long tradition and history since its inception in 2016. Along with the classic taste of original donuts, its signature cream donuts are very popular.



It is a first-generation donut brand that gained popularity on SNS (social network service) as a donut shop with lines, and was popular among the MZ generation. Although not as much as before, popular menu items still sell out if you go late at night. I visited the Yongsan branch, but since it was in the evening, popular menu items were all sold out.



It has many stores, starting with the main branch in Hannam, including Garosugil branch, Jamwon branch, Yongsan branch, Daegu branch, Gocheok branch, Jeongja branch, Sadang branch, Incheon branch, Yeonnam branch, and Siheung Premium Outlet branch.



Old Ferry Donuts has also expanded overseas. Old Ferry Donuts has opened a store in "The Source OC Mall" located in Buena Park, California, USA. The first overseas store in California sold out all donuts within 5 hours of its opening, and since then, long lines of customers have been forming. Isn't it amazing that a domestic brand is making a comeback in the US market, the home of donuts?

Old Ferry Donuts has a signature character that symbolizes it. It's a gummy bear eating a donut. Old Ferry Donuts is also gaining popularity with its vintage American-inspired design and characters. Because it pushes cute characters as its signature, it has even opened a goods shop and sells various products. It sells a variety of products such as T-shirts, smart talks, phone cases, gabae drip bags, cups, blankets, etc., featuring the main logo. It also sells products through various collaborations. I will share the link below, so please refer to it!

Old Ferry Donuts is actively engaged in various activities such as card issuance through collaborations and pop-up stores in addition to goods sales.

Now, I'll introduce you to the menu. The signature menu includes Butter Pistachio (5,500 won), Peanut Butter (5,500 won), and Creme Brulee Donut (4,200 won). In addition, there are Original Ring Bread (2,900 won), Cinnamon Sugar Ring Bread (3,300 won), Pink Sprinkle Ring Bread (3,600 won), Choco Crunch Ring Bread (3,600 won), White Choco Sesame Ring Bread (3,600 won), Coconut (5,000), Boston Cream (4,400 won), Milk Cream Donut Bread (3,600 won), Raspberry Sugar Ball (4,200 won), and Butternut (3,200 won).



I'm curious to know what the White Choco Sesame Ring Bread with wasabi and the famous popular menu item Butter Pistachio tastes like.



I tried Creme Brulee, Boston Cream, and Coconut. Personally, I liked the coconut donut because I like the coconut flavor. But the other donuts were very sweet. I thought they were as sweet as or even sweeter than Randy's Donuts.



Compared to Nohted and Randy's, it might be a little expensive, so it might feel a little burdensome. Personally, after trying all three donuts, I thought Nohted was the best for my taste. Everyone's taste is different, so it's best to try it yourself.



I will tell you the location of the main branch in Hannam-dong. It is located on the 2nd floor of 66 Hannam-daero 27-gil, Yongsan-gu, Seoul.


Exit through the Shinhan Card Hall exit, go down the stairs to the left, go straight for 44m, turn right for 76m, and use the stairs in front of the building to go up to the 2nd floor.


It's open every day from 11:00 AM to 9:00 PM, with no holidays. The phone number is 0507-1482-2058.
