CLB Bakery is a historic bakery in Myeongnyun-dong, Mokpo, Jeonnam, often credited as the originator of the shrimp baguette. Established in 2019, it has become one of the representative bakeries of Mokpo, forming a two-stop bread tour alongside the adjacent Korombbang bakery. A notable number of locals express a preference for CLB over its neighbor. The signature shrimp baguette features a crisp-crusted, chewy-centered baguette filled with sweet-savory mustard sauce and pronounced shrimp aroma, producing an aftertaste that balances sweetness with a tangy finish. The cream cheese baguette benefits from a plain, understated dough that allows the cream cheese flavor to emerge prominently, remaining light despite the generous cheese quantity. The egg tart is a quiet favorite, ranked among the top egg tarts in the country by some visitors. The pain d'or combines a melting sugar powder exterior with a yogurt cream interior, yielding a soft and moist bite. Pricing across the selection is notably affordable, roughly half the cost of comparable items at nationally recognized bakeries such as Seongsimdang or Iseongdang. A running promotion provides a complimentary milkshake upon presenting the purchase receipt, so retaining the receipt is advisable. The in-store seating area is smaller than Korombbang's, and the bread selection is relatively narrower, though the coffee quality is solid enough for a brief cafe stop. Popular items tend to sell out by late afternoon, making an early visit the recommended strategy.
