The Globe: 13 Niddry Street, Edinburgh

If this bar is not the cheapest in Edinburgh it’s certainly close to it. You can get a bottle of Carlsberg for £1.35 – which is certainly competitive! Unlike many bars that do drink deals only for students – this bar also passes the savings on to hard working punters. No student card or tying to blag it with a snap fax here!
It’s a sports bar of the Aussie ilk (you can get bottles of VB, Tooheys New – if you feel the need). So what better than enjoying some Champions League action with some cheap beer deals? A word of warning though, if you want to watch one of the less popular games – get there ahead of time, as changing the Channel on their many tellys seems as complicated as re-directing a satellite in space!
Some may say the globe is a dingy, tacky bar that plays questionable music and has a distracting light show next to one of the TVs. I would say ignore all that and rejoice in the cheap beer!
VB could also stand for 'very bad'!
