About
Chicken-coop-themed beer hall — Korean fried chicken and pitchers by Hongik Station.
Dakjang Maekju — 'Chicken Coop Beer' — runs its themed beer hall by Hongik Station with the district's most aggressive happy hour: draft beer at 1,000 won, weekdays 1pm to 6pm, a price that reads like a typo and functions like a public service. The signature sweet-mayo chicken drives the repeat business (the house's own data point), while the handmade pasta is the menu's sleeper — good enough, regulars insist, to rival dedicated pasta rooms. The format is engineered for the Korean night's full 1차-2차-3차 progression: hours run to 4am (2am early week), group tables abound, and the chicken-and-pitcher economics keep every round justifiable. Midweek waits exist despite the capacity — calling ahead is worth the dial. Chimaek culture at student prices with kitchen ambitions: the coop, correctly, stays full.
