Casual Korean diner located on the lower ground floor of Golden Square Mart

Mukbang Pocha

I absolutely loved my experience over there, I often eat Korean food and after spending a month in Korea I can tell that it taste was super authentic. Staff was super friendly and very attentive, they didn’t ignore us. They were very, very helpful. Prices are quite high, but that’s what you get for good food in London. I will definitely come back on my next visit.

We visited Mukbang Pocha twice, first on 8/8 with five people, and again on 15/8 with three people because we enjoyed it so much the first time. The restaurant has a welcoming atmosphere. Although we didn’t have a reservation, we were seated straight away on our first visit, and waited about 15 minutes the second time, which was no issue at all, the food was worth it! However, you can check their website if you want to reserve a table or to check the menu. The staff were friendly, attentive, and professional, especially Neha, who looked after us on both visits and made the experience even more enjoyable, she was spectacular!

The food was absolutely delicious and halal-friendly (apart from a few pork dishes, which are clearly marked on the menu). We ordered a lot, and everything was fantastic. Our favourites were the Rose Tteokbokki (£14.90), Korean Fried Chicken (15 pieces, you can mix 3 flavours, our favourites were the Honey Soy and Cheese Onion flavours, £29.99), Kimchi Seafood Pancake (£15), and Seafood Soondubu Jjigae (£14). We also had the Rose Tteokbokki Hot Pot (£39), which was ideal for three people and very filling. Every dish was a 5/5, tasty, generous portions, and great value for money.

On our second visit, a nearby table was quite loud, but the staff handled it really well. They kept apologising (even though it wasn’t their fault) and kindly gave us free chocolates and cucumber banchan as a kind gesture. The service, food quality, and pricing all exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Mukbang Pocha, and we’ll definitely be returning! Huge thanks again to Neha for the warm and thoughtful service!

Small group of us came here on  Saturday afternoon. There was a really nice calm atmosphere. It wasn't too busy which was nice. The food was absolutely amazing, and so wa the service. I'd definitely come back here again!

My first time trying Korean Fried Chicken, it was absolutely delicious!

We shared the ‘triple chicken selects’. Be warned the fire chicken is exactly what it says! 🥵

The staff were wonderful! So helpful and considerate. Will be back again to try different dishes!

Thank you for a great first visit!

Really enjoyed eating here. Food was good and reasonably priced esp for London!

Service was great and food came quickly.

The music wasn’t too loud unlike other places!!

Freddos were given when the bill came so a lovely surprise!

Our halal chicken and beef options are clearly labelled in our menu.
