Where to watch Scotland vs. Brazil in Edinburgh: Best pubs and sports bars for World Cup match

Where to watch Scotland vs. Brazil in Edinburgh: Best pubs and sports bars for World Cup match
Scottish football supporters during the game against Morocco - IMAGO / ANP

After playing their first two 2026 World Cup games in Foxborough, Scotland will head to Miami Stadium for Wednesday's highly anticipated but daunting clash with five-time champions Brazil.

Steve Clarke's side are sitting in third spot and a point adrift of the top two in Group C after following a 1-0 win against Haiti with a defeat by the same scoreline in their recent clash with Morocco.

Scotland know that a win would secure a top-two spot, and a draw would most likely be enough to secure a best third-placed spot, but a defeat would leave them with a nervous wait.

The Tartan Army will be out in force in Miami for such a big occasion, while there will be many back in Scotland who will head to pubs, bars and fan zones to catch the action.

Here, Football Ground Guide covers the best venues in Edinburgh to watch Scotland go head-to-head with Carlo Ancelotti's side.

Scotland vs. Brazil: Best Edinburgh pubs to watch World Cup clash

Beehive Inn – 18-20 Grassmarket, EH1 2JU

The Beehive Inn is a historic pub nestled beneath the walls of Edinburgh Castle. The mid-19th century establishment is sure to be a popular spot on Wednesday night, so make sure to book ahead to avoid disappointment.

O'Neills – 9 Hunter Square, EH1 1QW

Located in Edinburgh's Old Town, O'Neills will be the go-to spot for many Scotland fans on Wednesday, offering a lively atmosphere and large screens to watch the action.

However, there are only a couple of time slots left for those who want to secure a seat for the final group game.

The Chanter –  30-32 Bread St, EH3 9AF

The Chanter, situated near Edinburgh Castle, boasts nine TVs and an HD big screen, meaning every seat should have a great view for the massive World Cup encounter.

Finnegans Wake Edinburgh –  9B Victoria St, EH1 2HE

This Irish-themed sports bar is a great place to watch the game for those looking for a lively atmosphere. However, demand will be high, so it is worth checking availability online if you want to secure a spot.
