Myeongdong Oreo Churros: Prices, Payment, and the One Menu You Can't Order
The Oreo Churros stall glowing blue in the middle of Myeongdong charges ₩4,500 for the Oreo Churros and ₩6,500 for the Ice Cream Churros. Cash, credit cards, and Korean bank transfers are all accepted, so there's no need to hunt down an ATM first. One thing to know before you walk up: the Oreo Cream Cheese Churros (₩5,500) is printed on the menu board but isn't being sold right now, which leaves you two options in practice.
What is the Myeongdong Oreo Churros stall like?
You'll spot the Myeongdong Oreo Churros stall from a block away. The entire cart is wrapped in the blue Oreo logo, and a lit-up "OREO Churros" sign hangs over the top. The signage alone tells you everything the stall sells.
The counter itself is more detailed than you'd expect. A wooden Oreo Churros model, an ice cream churros model, and stacks of Oreo cookie boxes are arranged in layers, so you can understand the menu just by looking. It's a good spot for a travel photo, too. And since Oreo is sold worldwide, none of this feels like unfamiliar territory for a visitor.
I walk past this corner on my way to work in Myeongdong every day, and the stall always pulls people's eyes toward it. But what tourists actually stop to ask about is something else entirely: the price.
How much does Oreo Churros cost in Myeongdong?
Prices are posted right on the front of the cart, on an official Myeongdong Square price board. It lists everything in both Korean and English, so you can check before you order without asking anyone.
| Menu | Price | Availability |
|---|---|---|
| Oreo Churros (+ white cream) | ₩4,500 | On sale |
| Oreo Cream Cheese Churros (+ chocolate) | ₩5,500 | Not currently sold |
| Ice Cream Churros (1/2 churros) | ₩6,500 | On sale |
The board on the front of the cart lists only two items: Oreo Churros at ₩4,500 and Ice Cream Churros at ₩6,500. Those are the two you can actually buy.
Near the bottom of that same board is a line reading "You can leave your garbage with us," written in Korean, English, Japanese, and Chinese. It means you can hand your cup back to the stall instead of walking around looking for a bin. That's a quietly annoying problem when you're eating street food in Myeongdong, so the offer is a relief — and it helps keep the streets clean.
So there's a menu item you can't order?
The large menu board hanging above the stall shows three items with photos: Oreo Churros (+ white cream) at ₩4,500, Oreo Cream Cheese Churros (+ chocolate) at ₩5,500, and Ice Cream Churros at ₩6,500.
Here's the part worth knowing in advance. The Oreo Cream Cheese Churros in the middle is pictured on the board but isn't being sold at the moment, so don't plan your order around it. As for the Ice Cream Churros, the "1/2 Churros" note on the board means you get half a churro served alongside the ice cream.
How do you pay at the Myeongdong Oreo Churros stall?
There are three ways to pay here: cash, card, and bank transfer.
| Payment method | Accepted |
|---|---|
| Cash | Yes |
| Credit card | Yes |
| Korean bank transfer | Yes |
On the right side of the stall stands a sign reading "Credit cards accepted" in Korean, with English, Chinese, and Japanese lines underneath. Holding out a card is enough — no conversation required, which takes the guesswork out of paying.
There's a separate sign for bank transfers as well. That option is there for people using a Korean bank account; if you're visiting, a card is the simplest route.
Which menu sells best on a hot day?
While I was taking these photos, the only thing selling was the Ice Cream Churros. It was the middle of summer, and everyone's choice landed on the same side of the menu.
I'm an Oreo fan anyway, so I bought one myself. The sweet Oreo flavor paired with soft serve cut straight through the heat. In summer, the ice cream version simply tastes better.
The Ice Cream Churros comes in a cup, and there are red and blue spoons set out on the counter, so it's easy to eat while walking. But the thing that impressed me most at this stall wasn't the taste.
Why are the stall's lights purple?
Look closely at the counter and you'll notice white and purple lighting mixed together. Specifically, the purple light falls only on the "Oreo BTS" cookie boxes. That's not an accident: purple is the official color of the K-pop group BTS.
Photos of K-pop artists hang around the stall, and Blackpink Oreo boxes sit on display next to the Oreo BTS boxes. Matching the lighting to the product shows a real eye for detail on the vendor's part.
BTS is hugely popular in Korea, but the group became even better known abroad as part of the Korean Wave. RM, Jungkook, V, Jimin, Suga, Jin, and J-Hope — seven young Koreans carrying a wide range of Korean culture out into the world. Keep it up, BTS!
