Finnegan's Wake: 9B Victoria Street, Edinburgh


Named after an unreadable James Joyce novel, Finnegan’s Wake may offer much. Whether it be live music, or pints of Best for £1.75, if you flash the student card. However, one thing they don’t offer is a great place to watch the sport. Choosing this as a venue to watch the Scotland VS Spain game, we were rejected, the Irish bar staff choosing to watch the Ireland match on the big screen instead. Fair play it’s an Irish bar, but you’re in Edinburgh. The bar was empty because they were showing the wrong game!

Not showing the Scotland match in Edinburgh? As impossible to understand as the novel the pub was named after!
