Pojangmacha (), also abbreviated as pocha (), is a South Korean term for outdoor carts that sell street foods such as hotteok, gimbap, tteokbokki, sundae, dak-kkochi (Korean skewered chicken), fish cake, mandu, and anju (foods accompanying drinks). In the evening, many of these establishments serve alcoholic beverages such as soju.

Pojangmacha is a popular place for late-night snacks or drinks. The food sold in these places can usually be eaten quickly while standing, or taken away. Some offer cheap chairs or benches for customers to sit, especially the ones serving late-night customers who come to drink soju.
