How to Choose a Restaurant in Yeongjongdo Before and After a Round at Club 72

This article was machine-translated from the Korean original. Read the Korean original

Club 72 (formerly Sky 72), spanning the Jung-gu and Yeongjong-gu areas of Incheon, is a large golf complex located right next to Incheon International Airport. It features Sky, Ocean, Lake, and Classic courses, as well as a Dunes course dedicated to Par 3s. The Ocean Course, which hosts professional tournaments such as the 2026 Lexus Masters, is famous for its links layout, a rarity in Korea. Thanks to its accessibility—reachable within 40 to 50 minutes from Seoul and the western metropolitan area—reservations are in high demand not only on weekends but also on weekdays.

A common cautionary note mentioned in many reviews is that since each course has a separate clubhouse, you must enter the exact course name into your navigation system. There is also a wide variety of dining options before and after your round, ranging from restaurants specializing in Yeongjongdo’s signature octopus and seafood dishes to traditional Korean set meals in the direction of Eulwangri.

01Two octopus specialty restaurants in Yeongjongdo

Located near Inspire Resort, 'Haesangung' is a restaurant specializing in octopus dishes that won the Grand Prize at a local specialty food competition. It is closed on Tuesdays and open from 10:00 AM to 9:00 PM on other days (last order at 8:00 PM). The set meal for two, featuring stir-fried octopus, seafood kalguksu, and a whole octopus pancake served with turmeric rice, is highly praised for its excellent value and has been featured multiple times on television, including MBC's 'Today N'. With an outdoor terrace and a play area for children, it is also a popular spot for guests accompanied by their dogs and children.

If you want to enjoy both meat and seafood, there is also '300 Degrees Seafood Galbi Main Branch'. It is located at 410 Masiran-ro, Jung-gu, Incheon, and is open from 10:30 AM to 8:50 PM (last order at 7:50 PM). Situated between Club 72 and Inspire, it offers convenient access and features dedicated seating for pets. Reviews indicate that while it is uncrowded on weekdays, there may be a wait on weekends and during peak seasons.

02Sammok Port/Yeongjongdo Seafood Kalguksu

Near Sammok Port, 'Sammok Seafood Kalguksu' is a notable choice. Located on the second floor at 64, Yeongjonghaeanbuk-ro 847beon-gil, Yeongjong-gu, Incheon, it is open from 8:00 AM to 6:30 PM on weekdays and from 8:00 AM to 7:30 PM on weekends. The menu is diverse, featuring abalone seafood kalguksu, seafood and chive pancakes, stir-fried octopus, Yeonpotang, and mulhoe. It is also said to receive many inquiries for venue rentals as it can accommodate groups of up to 80 people. '97 Degrees Seafood Kalguksu,' which is mentioned alongside Club 72 CC, is a similar restaurant that serves as an alternative when one craves warm broth and clam kalguksu.

03A Feast in Eulwangri — Naru Hanjeongsik

'Eulwangri Naru Hanjeongsik' is frequently mentioned as a great restaurant near Club 72's Sky Course. Located at 38 Nambuk-dong, Jung-gu, Incheon, it is described as a long-established spot where locals in Eulwangri often take guests from out of town. With a full spread of aged halibut sashimi, boiled pork slices (bossam), mung bean chicken soup, grilled fish, acorn jelly soup, seasoned crab, japchae, and rice cooked in a pot all served on one table for around 20,000 won per person, it is praised for its excellent value. It is also emphasized that the owner personally prepares all the side dishes every day.

The spread is so lavish that you might wonder, "Is it okay to eat this much before a round?"

04If you want to take care of it inside the clubhouse

If you want to save time traveling, there are many reviews stating that the meals at the clubhouse are quite satisfying. The seaweed soup at Club 72's clubhouse is a menu item that many golfers seek out repeatedly. At the Sky Course, you can receive a meal ticket at the kiosk upon check-in and enjoy a buffet-style breakfast, with information indicating the price is around 10,000 won per person. The snack bar also offers light options like tteokbokki and draft beer, making it a good place to stop by when you feel a bit peckish after finishing the front nine.
