I met university friends for boneless dakbokkeumtang, honey tomatoes, sausage and fries, fried rice, and dakgangjeong while watching baseball. Verdict: a comfortable pick for groups thanks to roomy tables and affordable drinks. ## Good to know - **Address**: 2F, 11 Yeongdeungpo-ro 50-gil, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul, South Korea (서울 영등포구 영등포로50길 11 2층) - **Hours**: Sun–Thu 16:00–01:00; last order 00:00 - **Hours**: Fri–Sat 16:00–03:00; last order 02:00 - **Recommended menu**: Korean beef tripe and chicken stew; chicken stew; beef tripe hot pot - **Seating**: Group tables are available toward the back *as written by the visitor on Sep 11, 2026* ![Signature photo of Yeokjeon Pojangmacha Yeongdeungpo](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks-01-rj4az-1200.webp) Today, I headed to Yeongdeungpo to meet up with my university friends for the first time in ages. We’re scattered all over Seoul, Bundang, Incheon, Anyang, and so on, so we picked Yeongdeungpo as a midpoint and found a bar that would work well for a group! They even put the baseball broadcast on the screen, so we had drinks while watching the game! Every dish we ordered was tasty, and there was space for groups too—let’s take a look at Yeokjeon Pojangmacha Yeongdeungpo (역전포장마차 영등포)! ## Getting to Yeokjeon Pojangmacha in Yeongdeungpo Station’s food alley Yeokjeon Pojangmacha is a chain bar with locations in many areas! The Yeongdeungpo branch sits around the middle of the food alley by Yeongdeungpo Station, and the building is quite large, so it’s easy enough to find. I used to come to this Yeongdeungpo street often for company dinners when I worked in Yeouido, and it’s still full of dazzling neon signs,, Just head up to the second floor, where Yeokjeon Pojangmacha is written in huge letters! Soju and beer are affordable too!! ![Second-floor directions for Yeokjeon Pojangmacha Yeongdeungpo](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks-02-g2813-966.webp) Let’s go up to the second floor~! ![Interior of Yeokjeon Pojangmacha Yeongdeungpo](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks-03-qps1u-966.webp) When I got there, my friends had already arrived,, I was a little late, but I wasn’t last. We have one friend who is always last, you know... Now it was time to order and have a drink!! The complimentary snacks were puffed rice crackers and pickled radish—more than enough to have with a drink!! ## Yeokjeon Pojangmacha menu and the dishes we ordered ![Yeokjeon Pojangmacha menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks-04-6panm-966.webp) Their signature dish is apparently dakbokkeumtang (spicy braised chicken stew). They also have other soups and stews, yukhoe (Korean beef tartare), and stir-fries. ![Soup, stew, and yukhoe menu information](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks-05-1er8h-966.webp) ![Dried-snack and fish-cake menu information](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks-06-6egbl-966.webp) There are dried snacks such as meoktae (dried pollock), as well as fish-cake dishes you can eat like at an eomuk bar. ![Boneless dakbokkeumtang snack](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks-07-1jmjg-966.webp) ![Dakbokkeumtang and drinks table setting](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks-08-1qhbd-966.webp) ### Dakbokkeumtang with boneless chicken The dakbokkeumtang arrived~~ The portion isn’t huge, but I think it’s good value! You can choose bone-in or boneless chicken, and since we were having drinks, we went boneless!! The dakbokkeumtang can be a little spicy. If you can’t handle spice, be careful.. ![Spicy dakbokkeumtang](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks-09-1h8ud-966.webp) ![Dakbokkeumtang table setting](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks-10-197ii-966.webp) Honey tomatoes, which one friend had been singing about, and sausage & fries. My friends were saying they couldn’t see any sausage in the fries,, ![Honey tomatoes with sausage and fries](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks-11-1jvva-966.webp) Here.. it is. This place does sausage really well!! ![Sausage and fries snack](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks-12-1q0je-966.webp) We decided to start with somaek, a soju-and-beer mix. One friend who really loves drinking is pregnant,, so she can’t drink, which means we’ll enjoy it even more on her behalf. ![Drinks starting with somaek](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks-13-nftzj-966.webp) We need to eat plenty of food with our drinks so that we thirty-somethings don’t get a hangover the next day,, We’re very different from when we were university students.. ![A generously laid-out spread of snacks](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks-14-10uno-966.webp) ![Drinking snacks with university friends](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks-15-1lei3-966.webp) By the time the friend who came last was about to arrive, we had eaten almost all the snacks we ordered at the start,, For our hungry friend, we made fried rice with the dakbokkeumtang and ordered dakgangjeong (sweet crispy fried chicken) too! The food here all seems tasty, so we drank quite a bit from the very first stop.. ![Table setting with extra fried rice and dakgangjeong](https://img.superchart.com/images/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks-16-1ri36-966.webp) ## A comfortable Yeongdeungpo Station bar for group dinners In the end, we finished every dish we ordered and happily wrapped up our drinks~~ It was a university-friends gathering with stamina definitely different from our twenties,, Beyond a small get-together like ours, there are tables toward the back that can accommodate groups for company dinners, and the place isn’t cramped, so I think it would be easy to visit comfortably! Above all, I loved that the drinks were affordable, so Yeokjeon Pojangmacha Yeongdeungpo is somewhere I’d like to revisit if I get the chance! ## Where it is - Yeokjeon Pojangmacha Yeongdeungpo (역전포장마차 영등포) (역전포장마차 영등포) - 2F, 11 Yeongdeungpo-ro 50-gil, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul, South Korea (서울특별시 영등포구 영등포로50길 11 2층) - 서울특별시 영등포구 영등포로50길 11 2층 - 37.5179217, 126.9094203 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%97%AD%EC%A0%84%ED%8F%AC%EC%9E%A5%EB%A7%88%EC%B0%A8%20%EC%98%81%EB%93%B1%ED%8F%AC/@37.5179217,126.9094203,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@seoul-backbar-glass/yeongdeungpo-station-pocha-group-drinks/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
