Apart from watching live sport in person, nothing beats watching it in a pub surrounded by fans as they go wild when their team scores.
The buzz a pub atmosphere can bring to a game is electric and it totally beats sitting in on your own, especially when you can celebrate with others.
In Dundee alone there are heaps of places to enjoy a drink and some grub while being surrounded by live sports on a multitude of screens.
With the Six Nations kicking off next weekend, here are some of the top venues to visit for live sports as recommended by the Food and Drink team.
