Thanks for coming! It's important that your viewers see Ukraine as a normal country with the best people! But you don't know how to find pubs in Ukraine that is for sure. Hit me up if you're still in Kyiv, I'll take you on a decent crawl.
The best people? Are u kidding? They're all over Europe pretending to be refugees taking all the free housing and benefits and not working...then going home on holiday b4 returning for their freebies...literally millions of Ukrainians doing this. The reputation of Ukrainians has been destroyed.
I've watched 6 of your videos so far. Now my kids are giving me weird looks, because I've taken to saying things like "Bangin'!", "What's kickin' off?" and "It is what it is,"🤣
Well you won't get conscripted and are allowed to leave. You would by crying and defecating in your pants if you were anywhere near an actual drone or rocket strike. Pathetic.
Great video - loved the insight to a new area very enjoyable! You and your brother bounce off each other well - lot of laughs 🤣Hope you both had a good trip
Is what it is. You are in a war zone after all. All the bars are probably slowly shutting down because people won’t go out. Keep your chins up, hats off to you both for going. I bet the bars would have been buzzing before the war 👌
Was in Kyiv for a few days this summer. Had a good time despite the circumstances, and this video takes me back! You should've gone to Porter Pub, though. They have good beer there
A lot of the men who would be drinking are away fighting. Imagine living there and being chronically sleep-deprived...no wonder the coffee shops are booming
ive wanted to go to the ukraine for the last year or so, how easy is it to get in? initial plan is to go to poland and get a bus, what was crossing the border like and returning back?
Fly to Rzeszow, Poland....then you get a bus right from the airport direct to Lviv. When in Lviv there is a huge train station connecting all of Ukraine. Easy pal
Honestly mass respect for trying somewhere different and getting out of your comfort zone mate. I moved to America 4 years ago, I was in the Army before that, been around the block. But I can confidently say there will never be pubs like they are in the U.K. So cherish every one! As a personal request because of my own selfish nostalgic reasons, I would really love it if you did a video drinking in Hartlepool - The headland. It’s an old rough fishing town with god knows how many pubs (too many to count) all within 1 mile. ❤ You’ll meet some characters I can say
Dont know whether you remeber but we went primary together for a bit you were me first best mate 🤣 good times lad buidling a mega channel here. Take it easy lad
Haha yhyh am all good bro! Used to go each other's houses for a scran and that 🤣🤣 glad to see your doing well lad! Been watching your channel for a bit class lad
Great video man, but I'm really surprised you didn't go to O'Briens' Irish pub on Mykhailivska St in Kyiv - You'd swear you were in a classic Dublin pub when you walk in there, and their Guinness is amazing; even better than Dublin's Gravediggers pub; I'd give it a 9.8 out of 10.
@@honestplaces no problem. I've been stuck indoors for almost 6yrs due to life-changing internal injuries (bar hospital appointments) and your videos give me a much needed link to the outside. I have been trying to defeat this condition and get out and about with my camera and do something, but it's difficult to get from A to B without transport. Anyhow, keep up the excellent videos - totally love 'em (and I'm a Guinness man lol). 👍🙂
When in an Eastern European city, I find a trip to a jazz club is one of the best options at night. They are usually in a basement cellar. I've been to jazz clubs in Krakow and Zagreb. Both cracking nights out. Zagreb is underrated for its pubs. Budapest and Bucharest of course have great bars and pubs.
Fair play for doing this and actually taking the trip out to that amazing country, a lot of the bed wetter negative comments from others wouldn’t have the balls to do this trip.
Danny absolutely cracking vlog well done 👍 look after yourselves out there ! keep trying to find a pub that serves Guinness 😅 see what it’s like compared to the Uk & Ireland 🇮🇪 I’ve tried Guinness in many different countries and of course loads of local beers too stay safe top lads 🍻🙏🍻
The Guinness looked awful. My son and I went out for a couple of pints in Sean’s bar, Athlone, Ireland last week. The Guinness was great but they also sell Murphey’s and beamish which I hadn’t tried before. Both very similar to Guinness. Both really nice pints. Banging !
Fancy train station that, looks cosier than anything the UK has at least. Bargain train prices too compared to the ripoffs you get in the UK. Actually scratch that, this whole place looks safer despite the war going on. ...the bars and drinks look like a different story though. Anyways, do appreciate a longer vlog for once, nice treat.
Great vid mate, great to see that despite all troubles that Ukraine is experiencing, life still goes on as normal, actually looks like a really beautiful country with nice people. I still think you've gotta do Afghanistan next, get the Taliban to show you round Kabul see what their local beers are like!!! 🤣🤣
@@honestplaces Did you film it yet? I can show you or tell you about a few places. Depends on what type of places you're after. But maybe you've already done it.
Would love an obscure Euro beer tour, Moldova, Baltic states etc. Could be banging but if it is hanging, may be cheap mistakes to make. I am based in Portugal, apart from craft places in main cities it is basically Sagres or Super Bock in most bars and cafes.
@@honestplaces Good point mate, either way, keep doing what you are doing. Been following your channel for a good while and you are going from strength to strength, more power to you and maybe I can get you over to Portugal next year for a few videos and sessions.
Intercity is a lot quicker and comfier from Lviv to Kyiv, you went to all the wrong places in Kyiv lol most people drink at weekends and after 1800 to 2300 Lviv is a great place list of great bars,
crossing the Ukrainian border for a few drinks! - ua-cam.com/video/9j4YAKXhmnA/v-deo.html
Bangin
Get to the border where it's kicking off 😮😅
You should have gone to the bunker bars or tried the fire coffee in Lviv
don honest
i read an article last year how two birds from the uk wanted to catch up. one from north (i think manc) and one from london. ended up for them cheaper to catch up in bloody malaga lol then london
Still safer than London. And cleaner...

He can't find a decent pub in his own back yard. That's his angle.

Looks safer than walking in the middle of Leeds wearing a MUFC shirt.
100% 🤣
Absolutely Stunning city. Looks mostly pleasant and very peaceful.
Bangin place
I've watched 6 of your videos so far.
Now my kids are giving me weird looks, because I've taken to saying things like "Bangin'!", "What's kickin' off?" and "It is what it is,"🤣
Teach them all the quotes 🤣
You need a better role model
I’d rather spend a week in Ukraine with a target on my back than a weekend in London or Birmingham. Look how clean it is!
Me too 🤣
Well you won't get conscripted and are allowed to leave. You would by crying and defecating in your pants if you were anywhere near an actual drone or rocket strike. Pathetic.
2 mates arguing over which pub to walk into...too funny..cheers from Texas

Great double act, you bring the comedy and your kid brings the dryness and it works wonderfully, looking forward to more adventures, keep safe.😎
🤣 cheers pal
Most UK city's are war zones on a Friday and Saturday night so you've had a lot of training.😂😂👍🍺🍺🍺💯
🤣 true
Most the drinkers are on the battlefield that's probably why the beer is rank cause there not pulling much.
Interesting to see a new perspective on this place rather than the ones you always see in the news, great video!
Cheers hommie

That's weird, considering close to 60% of Birmingham folk are white skinned.
Hang in there !
It is what it is 👳🏾♂️

A lot of the men who would be drinking are away fighting.

Ukraine may not brew the best beer themselves BUT they grow a major amount of the barley needed for brewing in the east.
100%
There just isn't a beer culture in Ukraine. I drink more beer here in Prague in 1 week than the average Ukrainian drinks in a year.
@@stevemcgowen I can also attest to the quality of Czech beer! Lucky you!
i be heading to liverpool in march for the first time looking foward to the pubs there regards from cork

Irish pub, O'Briens's mate. What you playing at?
Great vid mate, shame you couldnt find a decent bar to drink though! that Guines looked rank, the head looked like fairy liquid bubbles!😂

Looks far better than where I live in South East UK.
Deffo better than up north here!
What's your main draw to visiting Ukraine? Just curious since you said this isn't your first time!
Architecture bangin, proper unique towns, cheap to stay and travel....and it's so vast pal
