Best of all, the drink prices were cheap, haha. ## Where is Yeokjeon Pojangmacha Sinchon Branch, and when is it open? > • Name: Yeokjeon Pojangmacha Sinchon Branch > • Location: 26 Yonsei-ro 7-gil, Seodaemun-gu, Seoul, South Korea, 2nd floor > • Access: about 362m from Sinchon Station Exit 2 > • Hours: 16:30 – 01:00 next day > • Fri–Sat: 16:30 – 03:00 next day > • Reservations: Available via Naver Reservations > • Group bookings available Yeokjeon Pojangmacha Sinchon Branch is in a spot that's an easy walk from Sinchon Station Exit 2. ## Big tables and a private room that fit a group of five Let's start with the atmosphere at Yeokjeon Pojangmacha Sinchon Branch. ![Interior of Yeokjeon Pojangmacha Sinchon Branch on the 2nd floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes-01-qgb6a-900.webp) ![Large table seating for a group of several people](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes-02-sf47d-m-900.webp) ![Group drinking seats with pojangmacha-style atmosphere](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes-03-1jaut-m-900.webp) There were five of us that day, and it was really convenient having a big table where we could all sit together! There's also a room, which looked great for anyone wanting more privacy for their drinking session — but other guests might already be using it, so if you want the room, I'd recommend reserving ahead. It seemed like a solid choice if you're looking for a group bar in Sinchon for a gathering with friends or a work dinner with a lot of people. ## What five friends ordered, and what the drinks cost Yeokjeon Pojangmacha Sinchon Branch had quite a variety of side dishes, and here's what we ordered! > 🍲 Sinchon dakdoritang ₩25,900 > 🥔 Cheesy potato pancake ₩19,900 > 🧀 Cheese egg roll ₩14,900 > 🍚 Self-fried rice ₩5,900 And one of the best things about Yeokjeon Pojangmacha Sinchon Branch was the drink prices ✨ ![Menu board showing drink prices at Yeokjeon Pojangmacha Sinchon Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes-04-5mhnv-1280.webp) ![Soju and draft beer on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes-05-kxwxi-900.webp) These days even ordering a single bottle of soju feels like a splurge at some bars, but the drinks here were cheap, so it was great for a group of us to drink together, haha. ## How spicy is spice level 1 Sinchon dakdoritang? ![A pot of Sinchon dakdoritang, the main dish ordered](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes-06-y74rn-m-900.webp) The main dish we ordered: Sinchon dakdoritang! ![Dakdoritang broth cooked at spice level 1](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes-07-lrltd-900.webp) ![Chicken and potato pieces in the dakdoritang](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes-08-1nrkk-900.webp) We picked spice level 1, and even at that level it was pretty spicy 🔥 If you can't handle spicy food well, I'd recommend starting at the lowest level. Dakdoritang itself is a dish that goes great as a drinking snack, and it paired really well with soju. ## Finishing the meal with self-fried rice ![Ingredients for the self-fried rice you cook yourself](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes-09-x5i3l-900.webp) We couldn't just stop after the dakdoritang, so we added self-fried rice too! The fried rice is ₩5,000 and, true to its name, you fry it yourself. ![Fried rice made with leftover dakdoritang sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes-10-ozvzl-900.webp) Frying up rice in the leftover sauce from the dakdoritang made for the perfect finish, haha. Dishes like this really do feel complete only once you've had the fried rice too 😋 ## Cheesy potato pancake, 19,900 won ![Cheesy potato pancake with mozzarella cheese](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes-11-9kgn3-900.webp) We also ordered the cheesy potato pancake! It's a crispy-fried potato pancake with mozzarella cheese inside — crispy on the outside, savory and cheesy on the inside, great as a drinking snack 🧀 Eating it in between bites of the spicy dakdoritang made for a great combo. Since the dakdoritang is on the spicy side, I was glad we ordered the cheese potato pancake alongside it! ## Cheese egg roll, 14,900 won ![Cheese egg roll loaded with cheese](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes/yeokjeon-pocha-sinchon-group-cheese-dishes-12-az1u4-900.webp) The cheese egg roll we ordered was packed with cheese and delicious! Switching between the spicy dakdoritang and the soft, savory cheese egg roll made for a great combination 🫶 The cheese was generously loaded in, so if you're a cheese lover, this is a good one to order alongside everything else. ## Verdict: is Yeokjeon Pojangmacha a good group bar in Sinchon?
