The Bar Jokbal Night Market

What is The Bar Jokbal Night Market? Located along Yonge Street just north of Wellesley, The Bar Jokbal Night Market operated as an energetic Korean pocha-meets-izakaya designed for late-night gatherings and convivial drinking sessions. The space embraced nocturnal Seoul street vibes, styled with wood-slat accents, ambient LED lighting, vibrant neon signs, and faux greenery across a casual dining room and bar setup.

The Bar Jokbal Night Market Menu & What to Order Braised pig trotters anchored the operation, served meltingly tender in preparations like the star Original Jokbal and the fiery Spicy BBQ Jokbal, ideally ordered as a Half & Half platter alongside tender Bossam pork belly. The broader kitchen reached across borders, pairing rich Korean-style street bites like Mala Rose Tteokbokki and Steamed Clam with White Wine with izakaya-style sashimi. To cut through the rich, savory pork fat, tables routinely ordered the citrusy Earl Grey Highball or sweet house cocktails.

Know Before You Go Positioned steps from Wellesley station, the room leaned on easy subway access and saw its heaviest foot traffic from walk-in groups late into the evening. Street parking along Yonge was consistently scarce, making transit the default route for diners. Please note that this establishment is now permanently closed.
