# Corkage-free Korean BBQ near Jungangno Station, Daegu: Hubaldae - By Taerin (https://superchart.com/en/@daegu-receipt-book/) - Written Sep 6, 2026 - Local places › Restaurants › Jung-gu, Daegu - Sponsored: This post was written following a sponsored store visit. - English edition: https://superchart.com/en/@daegu-receipt-book/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/ - Also in: [한국어](https://superchart.com/ko/@daegu-receipt-book/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/index.md) ## In short Hubaldae Daegu Jongno Branch is a Korean BBQ restaurant on Jongno, about 291m from Exit 1 of Jungangno Station in Jung-gu, Daegu, where the staff trim and grill every cut and garnish for you. Over three servings of pork neck, one of premium tripe and a bowl of Hubaldae ramyeon for dessert, the writer worked through the house combinations of seasoned kimchi, angelica root and honey potato, and brought along drinks since the restaurant is corkage-free. Even late on a Monday the place was full, so booking or joining the waitlist in advance is the safer plan. ## Good to know - **Location**: 50 Jongno, 1st floor, Jung-gu, Daegu — 291m from Jungangno Station Exit 1 - **Pork neck / pork belly / beef large intestine**: 150g per serving, 14,900 won - **Premium tripe**: 150g, 16,900 won - **Corkage**: Corkage-free - **Reservations**: Book or join the waitlist in advance on Naver Place; same-day waiting also possible - **Ordering dessert**: Order about 20 minutes before you want to eat it *as written by the visitor on Sep 6, 2026* Hubaldae Daegu Jongno Branch 50 Jongno, 1st floor, Jung-gu, Daegu, South Korea 291m from Jungangno Station Exit 1 ![Exterior of Hubaldae Daegu Jongno Branch on Jongno in Jung-gu, Daegu](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-01-k6j1n-900.webp) This is Hubaldae, a Jongno favorite in Daegu where you literally don't have to lift a finger — the staff handle everything for you. Great service, super friendly, and delicious food. ![Jongno street and Hubaldae's entrance on a late Monday evening](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-02-1a0qv-826.webp) ## Full even late on a Monday: why to book ahead I figured Jongno wouldn't be too crowded on a late Monday evening, but the streets were actually pretty packed. And Hubaldae, a top-tier spot in Jongno, was fully booked too, even on a Monday night. ![Fully booked interior of Hubaldae Daegu Jongno Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-03-cvw4s-900.webp) You can book or join the waitlist ahead of time through the Naver Place reservation system, so if you've already got plans, I'd recommend reserving first. Even if you're heading over on the day, same-day booking or waitlisting is possible — so I'd suggest putting your name down right now, haha. ## Menu, prices and bringing your own drinks ![Hubaldae menu board listing pork neck, pork belly, and beef intestine prices](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-04-1h08b-820.webp) Pork neck, pork belly, and beef large intestine are all 150g per serving for ₩14,900, while the deluxe small intestine alone is 150g for ₩16,900. There's probably a reason pork neck comes first on the menu, so I ordered three servings of that right off the bat. And here's the important part — it's corkage-free. Welcome to a grill with serious heat. The fire was so strong that once you finish eating and the flame dies down, it actually gets noticeably chilly. ![BBQ grill with strong flame at the restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-05-1g8mm-1200.webp) Gorgeous-looking pork neck has arrived. The color was so good I almost wanted to just eat it raw. ![A plate of vividly colored raw pork neck](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-06-rr0fo-900.webp) ## The signature side dish: seasoned kimchi Hubaldae, this Jongno favorite in Daegu, has a few signature side dishes. One of them is the "tasty kimchi." ![The signature spicy kimchi side dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-07-9vj7y-793.webp) It's sour, well-fermented kimchi that's been simmered — not quite kimchi jjigae (kimchi stew), but something else entirely. Sweet and tangy, and seriously addictive. ![Spicy kimchi cut into bite-sized pieces](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-08-1v8bu-775.webp) It comes as a standard side dish, and the staff snip it into bite-sized pieces with scissors right at your table. Take a spoonful of the broth first and the sweet-tangy flavor immediately wakes up your appetite — then mix and match the rest with the other side dishes and the meat as you like! ![Side dish spread served alongside the meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-09-1vp6t-900.webp) ### Angelica root and basil on the grill Then there's another signature side dish: angelica (danggwi) and basil. I'd never eaten angelica on its own before, and basil with meat? I was skeptical at first — but as I'll get into below, however the owner came up with this combination, it works with the meat in a way that shouldn't make sense. ![Another signature side dish, angelica and basil](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-10-mhufk-900.webp) ![Angelica and basil placed on the grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-11-x94mh-900.webp) ![Hubaldae's basic side dishes including shredded scallion and wild garlic leaves](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-12-13fkl-900.webp) There's also shredded scallion, wild garlic leaves, honey potato, wasabi, grilled sundae (Korean blood sausage), mushrooms, garlic, and shishito peppers. The angelica and basil get lightly seared on the grill before it's fully heated up, right at the start, which brings out their aroma. ## Grilled for you: no tongs or scissors needed Everything that goes on the grill, garnishes included, is prepped and cooked by the staff, so you never have to touch the tongs or scissors yourself. ![Staff grilling pork neck and honey potato](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-13-nzsx4-900.webp) Watching the meat and potatoes cook to perfection, this feels like the moment for... ![A cold glass of beer alongside the cooking meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-14-1ph3n-900.webp) ...a cold glass of beer. ## The three combinations Hubaldae recommends - Spicy kimchi + fresh wasabi + meat - Wild garlic leaves + angelica + fresh wasabi + meat - Honey potato + wild garlic leaves + spicy kimchi + fresh wasabi + meat ![Honey potato, wild garlic leaves, spicy kimchi, fresh wasabi, and pork neck combination](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-15-3emef-900.webp) Combination number three — honey potato, wild garlic leaves, spicy kimchi, fresh wasabi, and meat. The honey potato is a thin, sweet potato chip pan-fried until crisp and chewy. Add tangy wild garlic leaves, mouth-watering spicy kimchi, fresh wasabi to cut the richness, and pork neck on top, and I genuinely wondered who on earth came up with this combination. ![A piece of pork neck placed on honey potato](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-16-1j4jq-900.webp) ![Grilled pork neck served with shredded scallion](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-17-ohbza-900.webp) The shredded scallion pulls its weight too. The angelica is bitter with a fragrant herbal note that turns clean and refreshing once it soaks up the pork fat. It made me wonder — has angelica always paired this well with grilled meat? ![Grilled angelica and meat soaked in pork fat](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-18-1hzc4-900.webp) ![Pork neck cooking to a golden brown on the grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-19-1f1v4-900.webp) ## How did the pork neck taste? To start, this is genuinely delicious pork neck. You know how people say good pork neck can beat out pork belly? ![Cross-section of well-cooked pork neck](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-20-1rvnr-900.webp) And more than anything, this mouth-watering spicy kimchi just keeps making you reach for more meat. ![A piece of pork neck topped with spicy kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-21-1i3p3-900.webp) And who knew grilled sundae could be this good? ![Sundae grilling on the pan](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-22-1vne2-900.webp) ![Grilled sundae paired with side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-23-1wpyd-900.webp) ## Finishing with Hubaldae ramyeon For dessert we ordered the Hubaldae ramyeon (instant noodles). They recommend ordering dessert items about 20 minutes before you plan to eat them. ![Hubaldae ramyeon dessert with meat mixed in](https://img.superchart.com/images/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage-24-1110z-966.webp) It's a springy-noodle ramyeon with meat mixed in, giving it a slight budae jjigae (army stew) vibe. Not wanting to end things there, we ordered one more serving and finished with the chewy, satisfying deluxe small intestine too — that's Hubaldae, the corkage-free BBQ restaurant on Jungangno. ## Where it is - Hubaldae Daegu Jongno Branch (후발대 대구종로점) - 50 Jongno, 1st floor, Jung-gu, Daegu, South Korea - 대구광역시 중구 종로 50 1층 - 35.8702804, 128.5913351 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%9B%84%EB%B0%9C%EB%8C%80%20%EB%8C%80%EA%B5%AC%EC%A2%85%EB%A1%9C%EC%A0%90/@35.8702804,128.5913351,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@daegu-receipt-book/hubaldae-jongno-daegu-pork-neck-corkage/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
