The Absolute Cheapest Beers in Vilnius Old Town
Vilnius retains a strong, unpretentious pub culture. If you are drinking on a budget, you need to avoid the massive tourist strips and look for the underground cellars and local favorites.
1. Špunka
View menuA tiny, fiercely independent pub that arguably started the craft beer revolution in Vilnius. It serves excellent local microbrews at surprisingly low prices in an incredibly social, unpretentious atmosphere. We highly recommend trying their local craft IPA for just €4.50.
2. Etmonų Špunka
View menuThe Old Town offshoot of the original Špunka. It maintains the exact same ethos of affordable, high-quality local beer in a slightly larger, consistently packed communal setting. Don't leave without ordering a half-liter of unfiltered house lager for exactly €4.00.
3. Mr. Pub
View menuAn underground legend located right off Gedimino prospektas. Famous for its fiercely loyal student crowd, extremely loud music, and some of the cheapest pints and shot rounds in the entire center. A standard pint of dark Lithuanian beer will run you about €4.20 here.
4. DOGMA PUB
View menuA newer addition that brilliantly mixes the grit of a dive bar with a very solid tap list. The prices remain low, making it a great spot for a budget-friendly Friday night. Their rotating tap list usually features a brilliant local pale ale for around €5.00.
5. Local Pub
View menuA cornerstone of the Vilnius pub scene that focuses on massive variety without the massive markup. The perfect, laid-back spot to grab a cheap pint and watch the city walk by. Grab a classic Kalnapilis Original for just €3.80.
You can easily spend an entire evening hopping between these historic cellars without breaking the bank.
