Six Nations 2023: 15 Edinburgh pubs to watch Scotland v Ireland as Gregor Townsend’s men chase Triple Crown
Scotland may have fallen short of winning the Triple Crown following last weekend's defeat to Ireland, but Gregor Townsend men will want to finish their Guinness Six Nations campaign on a high with victory over the Azzurri in Edinburgh on Saturday (March 18).
The Italians last visit to the Scottish capital ended in a 52-10 defeat. Last year’s match, in Rome, also went the way of the Scots with Townsend’s troops winning 33-22.
For those not lucky enough to have tickets for big match, which kicks off at 12.30pm, we’ve compiled a list of the 15 best Edinburgh pubs to watch the action unfold.
