Located at 69 Jayu Green-gil, Ganam-eup, Yeoju-si, Gyeonggi-do, Jayu CC is a golf course known for its pine tree landscaping and well-maintained fairways. Currently, due to ongoing clubhouse renovations and hole expansion, the IN and OUT courses are operating under a temporary clubhouse; it is scheduled to reopen as a 27-hole facility once the construction is complete. With golf courses such as Namyeoju CC, Ariji CC, Geumgang CC, and Solmoro CC densely concentrated in the Ganam-eup area—almost right next to Trinity Club—many local restaurants offer menus and operating hours tailored to golfers.
01Starbucks instead of the clubhouse, and young cabbage hangover soup for breakfast.
A distinctive feature of Jayu CC is the Starbucks located at the entrance of the IN course. It offers the same prices as regular stores and applies the same app discounts, and also features "Starbucks Lager" and Hawaiian Shave Ice sold exclusively at the Jayu CC location. Currently, instead of operating a separate half-course, a restaurant inside the temporary clubhouse serves as both a dining and relaxation space. Breakfast is available in two options: Eolgari Haejangguk (a type of hangover soup) and Abalone Miyeokguk (abalone seaweed soup) (20,000 won each). There is also a package deal that includes breakfast, coffee, and watermelon after the 9th hole. Many reviews praise the broth for being spicy yet not too salty, and the delicious rice made with Yeoju rice.
One cup of coffee is provided after the meal, but refills are not available. However, being able to handle everything from breakfast to snacks after the 9 holes in one place actually made the flow of movement more convenient.amadejjs
02Breakfast restaurant that opens at dawn
The most visited spot by golfers looking to fill their stomachs before an early morning round is 'Namyeoju Cabbage Doenjang Soup and Aged Meat Restaurant.' Located at 151 Ganam-ro, Ganam-eup, Yeoju-si, Gyeonggi-do, it is open daily from 5:30 AM to 10:30 PM (with a break from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM) and is closed every Monday. It is known for its high-quality aged meat, as the owner also runs a butcher shop. When you order the cabbage doenjang soup, a table full of 6 to 7 side dishes, including a fried egg, is served. It has also gained word-of-mouth popularity among golfers for an event where meat is provided as a service upon achieving a hole-in-one or an eagle.
If you are looking for a place closer to Jayu CC, there is also 'Yangpyeong Haejangguk Ganam Branch'. It is located at 24 Ganam-ro, Ganam-eup, Yeoju-si, Gyeonggi-do, and is 3.1km (about 4 minutes) away from Jayu CC. It is open daily from 05:00 to 14:00, and reviews indicate that many golfers enjoy beef soup with rice paired with makgeolli.
03After the round, Ganam-eup's representative restaurant
If you want to enjoy meat without the hassle of grilling it yourself, 'Fahrenheit 2192 Namyeoju Branch' is a top choice. Located at 939 Yeojunam-ro, Ganam-eup, Yeoju-si, Gyeonggi-do, it is open daily from 11:00 to 21:30 (with a break time from 15:30 to 17:00) and is closed every Monday. It is praised for allowing customers to focus on their meal without worrying about grilling failures, as pork belly, pork neck, and pork jowl are pre-cooked over oak firewood and then finished grilling at the table by staff. The course that finishes with beef brisket soybean paste ramen is popular, and since it is only 5 minutes from the Namyeoju Interchange, it is a spot visited by golfers from Geumgang CC, Ariji CC, and Solmoro CC in addition to Jayu CC.
If you want to finish off lightly, there is also 'Gujwa Eolkeuni Sonkalguksu Yeoju Branch.' Located at 1087 Yeojunam-ro, Ganam-eup, Yeoju-si, Gyeonggi-do, it is open daily from 10:00 to 22:00. With kalguksu (noodle soup) packed with water parsley and mushrooms, and served alongside fried rice and dumplings, you can have a filling meal for just over 30,000 won, making it a highly cost-effective option after a round at Jayu CC or Ariji CC. If you are looking for a neat and tidy meal, there is also Yeoju Gochujang Bulgogi (931 Yeojunam-ro), where you can choose between a hangover soup set and a Vietnamese spring roll set, and it is praised for its substantial side dishes.
04The after-party is duck meat

Located at 16 Yanghwa-ro, Ganam-eup, Yeoju-si, Gyeonggi-do, it is open daily from 10:00 to 21:00. In addition to its signature dish, grilled fresh duck with 3-year-aged kimchi, the menu features boiled duck, spicy braised chicken, and pork belly, as well as lunch specials including kimchi stew, cheonggukjang, and doenjang stew.
