Pocha style — Paris

Pocha, short for pojangmacha, originally meant the tented street stalls that appear in Korea after dark — orange tarpaulins, plastic stools, food served fast. Today the word describes an atmosphere more than a place: loud, informal, oriented around drinking and shared plates, open later than average. A handful of Paris addresses claim that register, and this page collects them. Expect tables close together, a menu of anju rather than a structured carte, and service that goes straight to the point. It is the right choice for a night out with friends and the wrong one for a dinner where you want to hear each other. Combine with the soju, late-night or drinks filters depending on the plan, and check the venue type given on each listing.
