Drinking on a low budget in São Paulo.

So, you are passing by São Paulo but you’re not in your greatest financial times?

I HAVE THE ANSWER FOR YOU!!

As a paulista (someone born in São Paulo) student, I have learn where and when drink to maximize my hard earned money. You probably know that the first rule to do so, is to find places that offer happy hours. That’s what I’m going to present here, bars and restaurants that I think have the best HH in all city!!

  1. Cama de Gato (Cat Bed)
    This one is a finder, located in the heart of the city, this place has a ping pong table and cool instagrammable spots. The most important, for each day of the week, they select a drink of the menu and you pay only 17 reais! Even the normal prices are low, around 20-25 reais. They have classical and original ones.

  2. O’Malleys
    An Irish pub just a couple of blocks from metro station consolação. The HH here happens from monday to friday, 4pm to 8pm. You will pay from 14 to 23 reais for a full pint, they have a big variety of beers. But the most appealing thing isn’t the beer price. Around 6 pm, the bar starts to offer free snacks, that vary from day to day. You can go there hungry and thirst!! (https://www.instagram.com/omalleysbar/)
  3. Cervejaria Canoa (Canoa Brewery)
    This bar has just been born in 2019. But don’t be fooled by it’s age, the bar has won the Veja (a huge brazilian magazine) revelation bar prize. If you come by from monday to wednesday, you can try the first three beers (from a 12 beer menu) for 15 reais, and what’s even better, it’s two 300ml cups!! By far, the cheapest homemade beer you will have in the city. (https://www.instagram.com/canoacervejaria/)
