Innisfree Jeju House: scenic cafe & unique brand store

Eat healthy & delicious food, buy your favourite Innisfree products, and make your own natural soaps at the Innisfree Jeju House.

Is it a coincidence that Innisfree Jeju House is right next to Osulloc Tea Museum? Definitely not!

For those who are familiar with the Innisfree brand, you may know that green tea (be it green tea seed or green tea itself) is one of their core ingredients.

It is little wonder then, that you also find one of the most famous green tea plantations from Osulloc right next to the Innisfree Jeju House.

What to do at Innisfree Jeju House

What you definitely won’t miss out there (and really shouldn’t) is the whole stretch of green tea plantations right behind!

These plantations are where Amore Pacific grows their signature green tea on Jeju Island. Just imagine all the beautiful, pure green tea leaves going into your cup of tea and skincare products: one of the best marketing technique for sure!

You will also see many tourists (local and international alike) posing among the fields and taking proof shots of having been to one of the most iconic places in Jeju.

Depending on which season you visit, the landscape does look wildly different! I think the bright green leaves look very photogenic in the summer months; in winter it looks a little more moody – but still very aesthetic!

My only concern is that a lot of people have probably touched all these tea leaves… not very hygienic, I guess. LOL.

I personally found it quite interesting that green tea (and correspondingly, matcha) is so big in Korea. I never did think that Koreans were actually big on drinking tea, only knew that a lot of them are heavy coffee drinkers.

This was their new (revamped?) cafe/eating area which is gorgeous! The sunlight filters in and everything looks so spacious and bright – exactly the kind of house I want to stay in.

I took some photos of the menus below for reference!

We ordered the Jeju Picnic Set, the Haeneyo Brunch Basket, and Tangerine Peel Tea. Everything looks so good and also tastes very good!!

The food options offered here are quite healthy as well. The dishes usually feature a good mix of proteins, vegetables, and use less oil.

Of course, you can also buy your favourite Innisfree products at the Innisfree Jeju House. However, do note that you will only find selected skincare, body care, and hair care ranges sold here. Makeup is not sold at this store!

Besides that, the Jeju House also focuses a lot on sustainability, environmentally-friendly, and natural practices. Here, you can even get to make your own natural soaps!

Depending on where you stay in Jeju, getting here can either be a breeze or a terrible headache.

Some people resorted to taking a taxi, which is also a pretty affordable option, especially if you are travelling in a group. In 2017 we took a long bus ride, but in 2024 we drove here instead which made things much easier!
