The writer stopped by for a second round with a coworker, ordered the meoktae (dried pollack) + 88 tteokbokki set and two Kelly draft beers, and enjoyed the open-door street-stall vibe, cheap snack prices and 1,500 won ice cream from the snack counter. For an easy, budget-friendly second round in Seolleung, 88 Nogari Seolleung Main Branch is a solid pick. ## Good to know - **Location**: 2F, 40 Seolleung-ro 86-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul (food alley by Seolleung Station Exit 1, above a convenience store) - **Hours (Sun–Thu)**: 5 pm–2 am (last order 1 am) - **Hours (Fri–Sat)**: 5 pm–3 am (last order 2 am) - **Ordering**: Order at the kiosk; drinks and water are self-serve - **What we ordered**: Meoktae (dried pollack) + 88 tteokbokki set, 2 Kelly draft beers - **Complimentary snack**: Chicken drumstick-shaped crackers - **Snack counter ice cream**: 1,500 won each - **Price reference**: ₩1,500 ≈ $1.1 (2026-11-12) *as written by the visitor on Apr 25, 2026 · not checked with the business* ![Main photo of 88 Nogari Seolleung Main Branch, a pub near Seolleung Station](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-01-11ko4-900.webp) After a first round in Seolleung, I wasn't ready to go home, so my coworker and I wondered where to go for a second round and ended up at 88 Nogari Seolleung Main Branch (88노가리 선릉본점), which seemed like a good place for something light. ## Where is 88 Nogari Seolleung Main Branch, and what are the hours? 88 Nogari Seolleung Main Branch is on the second floor above a convenience store, in the food alley by Seolleung Station Exit 1. It's open Sun–Thu 17:00–02:00 (last order 01:00) and Fri–Sat 17:00–03:00 (last order 02:00). It's right in the food alley, so it's easy to reach and perfectly placed for a second round. ![Location of 88 Nogari in the food alley by Seolleung Station Exit 1](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-02-1p5bx-900.webp) It's right above the convenience store!!! ![Exterior of 88 Nogari on the second floor above a convenience store](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-03-19bdl-900.webp) ![Entrance of 88 Nogari](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-04-1hwh8-900.webp) ## What's the atmosphere like at 88 Nogari Seolleung? Maybe because the weather's been so nice lately, 88 Nogari had its doors wide open, and the moment you walk in you get a street-stall (yajang) feel. Even though you're indoors, a breeze drifts in, and with the lively pocha (Korean pub) buzz on top, the atmosphere was really great. ![Interior of 88 Nogari with doors open and a street-stall feel](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-05-18hvw-900.webp) ![Pocha-style dining hall at 88 Nogari](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-06-lzt3x-m-900.webp) ![Tables inside 88 Nogari](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-07-mn3fr-900.webp) It was a bit chilly that day, but the atmosphere put me in an even better mood. Street-stall vibes are the best!!! ![Inside 88 Nogari with generously spaced tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-08-1ct1p-900.webp) ### Is 88 Nogari good for company dinners or group gatherings? The inside is bigger than I expected and the tables are nicely spaced, so I think it would work fine for a company dinner or group get-together. There were all sorts of groups while I was there, from coworkers to friends. ![Kiosk ordering area at 88 Nogari](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-09-6qmo0-900.webp) ![Self-serve drinks and water corner at 88 Nogari](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-10-k5fov-900.webp) ## How does kiosk ordering work, and what are the prices? At 88 Nogari you order at a kiosk and fetch your own drinks and water. The nice part is that snack prices are cheap overall, so you can order several dishes without worrying. Love it!!! There's also a separate snack-counter area, like a little school store, where you can grab extra snacks, cup ramen and even ice cream, which I thought was neat. ![Snack counter at 88 Nogari](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-11-hxk5o-900.webp) ![Snacks and cup ramen at the 88 Nogari snack counter](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-12-72mr0-900.webp) ![Ice cream freezer at the 88 Nogari snack counter](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-13-1cxes-900.webp) ## What we ordered at 88 Nogari Seolleung Main Branch We said we'd keep it light since it was a second round, and still ended up ordering the dried filefish + 88 tteokbokki set and two Kelly draft beers. Love it!!! - Dried filefish + 88 tteokbokki set - 2 Kelly draft beers - Complimentary snack: chicken drumstick-shaped snacks The complimentary snack is chicken drumstick-shaped crackers, and they're sneakily addictive. I kept reaching for them. ![Complimentary chicken drumstick-shaped snacks at 88 Nogari](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-14-1nqqo-900.webp) ### How are the dried pollack (meoktae) and Kelly draft beer? The dried filefish (mukttae) here was honestly perfect as a second-round snack. ![Dried filefish snack at 88 Nogari](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-15-na2bi-900.webp) It's crispy and nutty and not chewy at all, the kind you keep grabbing like chips. Good!!! Dipped in the soy-mayo sauce, the salty, nutty flavor really pops, and with beer it's insanely good. ![Dried filefish dipped in soy-mayo sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-16-1obwe-900.webp) The Kelly draft beer was really cold too, and with the filefish the drinks just kept going down smoothly. ![Kelly draft beer and dried filefish on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-17-153pp-900.webp) ![Two glasses of Kelly draft beer at 88 Nogari](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-18-1n0ls-900.webp) So delicious!!! ![Generous portion of 88 tteokbokki at 88 Nogari](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-19-1aqs3-900.webp) ### Is the 88 tteokbokki spicy? I expected the 88 tteokbokki (spicy rice cakes) to be spicy, but it was surprisingly sweet, like the tteokbokki you get outside a school. I was surprised by how big the portion looked, too. It's not a side dish, it's practically a main. The rice cakes are wheat-based, so they're chewy, and the sauce soaks in deeply, which keeps you eating. It has perilla leaves in it that give off a subtle aroma, and that's the real kicker! The fish cakes are thin and soft, nice with the rice cakes, and there are quail eggs in there too, so it's fun to find them as you eat. ![88 tteokbokki with wheat rice cakes, fish cakes and quail eggs](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-20-11vxt-1200.webp) I want to eat it again 😭😭😭 ![Snacks and beer on the table at 88 Nogari](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-21-mplu0-900.webp) ![Song request paper at each table at 88 Nogari](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-22-17cl0-900.webp) ## Song requests and 1,500 won snack-counter ice cream You can request songs at 88 Nogari too. Write your request on the paper at each table, hand it in, and they'll play it. That added to the mood and I loved it. ![₩1,500 ice cream from the 88 Nogari snack counter](https://img.superchart.com/images/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round/seolleung-nogari-pub-second-round-23-1saaz-m-900.webp) I crunched through an ice cream from the snack counter too. ₩1,500 each!!! ## Is 88 Nogari a good second-round bar in Seolleung, Gangnam? 88 Nogari is a great place to drop in for a light second round when you're looking for a good-value pub in Seolleung. With the doors open in this kind of weather, it has a proper street-stall feel and a really nice atmosphere. I had such a fun, happy time having a relaxed drink with my coworker after a long while.
