Your questions, answered

How much is a beer in Borovets?

Too few places publish their prices online for a typical price yet. The cheapest half litre we've found is Zagorka at Happy Duck, €3.80; every price we have.

Is a pint a pint?

Not quite. Bulgaria pours draught beer by the half litre (500ml), a little less than a British pint (568ml), and that's what this guide counts as a pint here. Every price is in euros: Bulgaria has used the euro since 1 January 2026. A menu still priced in leva is from before then, so we list its beers without the prices.

Which beers are poured?

Zagorka, Apple Thief, Ariana, Draft Beer (Premium), Heineken and Kopparberg are on the most lists. Every beer.

Where's open late?

Going by their own opening times, these are open past 1am on a Friday or Saturday:

• Dance Club Iceberg, till 05:00
• Buzz Bar, till 05:00
• BJ's Bar, till 04:00
• Jack's Pub, till 02:00
• The Black Cat, till 02:00

Hours change through the ski season: check with the pub before you go.

Can I plan a pub crawl?

Yes: the Borovets pub crawl picks pubs close together that are open when you'd get there, in a short walking order, or start from where you are.
