Ranch Pub

Daejeon


With 10 beers on draught, this is a favourite haunt of expats and beer lovers. The food is better than the usual pub grub. Closed Sunday.

The bar is near Chungnam University. From Yuseong Spa station, take bus 5 and get off at Hanbit bus stop. Turn left down the side street and the bar will be on your left. A taxi from Yuseong Spa station costs less than ₩5000. If the taxi driver doesn't know the address, say Hanbit Apt.
