Punchbowl Glacier is a glacier on the east side of Graham Land, on the Oscar II Coast of Antarctica, flowing south between Poibrene Heights and Metlichina Ridge into the north end of Exasperation Inlet, north of Jorum Glacier. It was surveyed by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey in 1947 and 1955, and the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee gave it a descriptive name for its shape, since the glacier is hemmed in by mountains.
