Pop-up pub offers pints for 66p on selected days during World Cup

It's a far sight from some of the prices facing fans travelling to Qatar

A pop-up pub in London will be serving a selection of beer and wine for just 66p during selected days of the upcoming World Cup. The ZYN Arms, launched by nicotine pouch brand ZYN, has been designed following national research revealing what fans most desire for their footie viewing this year. A poll of 2000 Brits found a third want bar prices to be more affordable and 1 in 5 said a smoke-free environment is the only way they’d enjoy watching the big game. The refreshingly affordable 66p drinks menu is a nod to England's victorious 1966 win. The pub will be open for 21+ only for three days: 21, 22 and 23 November, from 12:30 PM until 10 PM, and will be streaming three matches per day. You will be able to reserve a table for one of three matches on each day. Brits expecting cheap pints in the Middle East this winter could be in for a shock after it was revealed they could be charged around £80 per pint. In one bar, the Champions Sports Bar at the Marriott Hotel in Doha, a group stage game will come with a £48 charge to get in, followed by a Budweiser, Corona or house wine charged at £16- and this is per game, as some days have three games per day. Should you still be there for the for the knockout stages, a drink will cost you £180 to get in, while the semi-finals will be around £240. That eye-watering final charge is also for the final – which gives you a three-drink voucher, meaning that a bottle of Corona beer will come at a shocking cost of around £80 per pint.
