Songsong Gimbap Hamdeok Review 2026: Jeju's Perfect Takeout Kimbap

On a recent trip to Jeju, as I strolled from my accommodation towards the beautiful Hamdeok Beach, I stumbled upon a bustling little eatery called Songsong Gimbap. Seeing a steady stream of customers, I did a quick online search and discovered it's quite famous as a must-try gimbap spot in Hamdeok. Sometimes the best finds are the unexpected ones!

Inside Songsong Gimbap

The owner always greets customers with such warmth, it instantly puts you in a good mood! The shop itself is quite small, so there's no space for dining in. It's exclusively a takeout spot, which is perfect for grabbing some rolls for a beach picnic. Since it's a popular place, especially during peak season, I highly recommend calling ahead for your order to avoid any wait times.

Menu Highlights

Here’s a look at their delicious and budget-friendly menu:

Songsong Gimbap: ~$3

Tuna Gimbap: ~$3

Beef Gimbap: ~$3

Myeolchu Gimbap (Anchovy & Chili): ~$3

Cheese Gimbap: ~$3

In 2026, with rising food costs, it's refreshing to find such quality gimbap still priced so affordably, with nothing exceeding ~$4. It's truly a steal for the generous portions you get!

Being so close to Hamdeok Beach, picking up some gimbap here is absolutely ideal for enjoying a meal with a stunning ocean view.

I ordered the classic Songsong Gimbap for ~$3 to get a feel for their basic recipe, and I was thoroughly impressed! The rolls are packed with fillings, and each piece is quite substantial. One of the best things about Songsong Gimbap is how thinly the rice is spread – it’s almost like a 'diet gimbap' if you're looking for something lighter but still satisfying! The large, fluffy egg omelet inside was a definite highlight. So good!

The gimbap rolls are so generously sized that just one roll is enough to fill you up! If you're planning a visit to Hamdeok Beach, I highly recommend swinging by Songsong Gimbap for a truly delicious and authentic Korean experience.
