About the chimaek

The Chimaek is a hidden gem serving Korean-style fried chicken and beer, known for its excellent chicken and bar food with dive bar vibes. The restaurant offers a relaxed atmosphere, reasonable liquor prices, and a good vibe. Portion sizes may be smaller than usual, but the food is delicious, with crispy fried chicken, soy fried chicken, and sweet/spicy chicken being standouts. It's a great spot to share a pitcher of beer with friends and enjoy a satisfying meal, especially with dishes like pajeon and the must-try garlic baked half chicken. The liquor store is connected, allowing customers to buy alcohol without extra charge. The service may sometimes be off, but the friendly and accommodating owner/manager ensures a comfy experience, making it a go-to place for quick drinks and snacks.
