Here’s everything you need to know about where you can legally drink outside in the UK. If under 18s are caught drinking alcohol in public places police can take away alcohol and fine them. In Scotland each local council has its own set of by-laws stating where you can and can’t drink in public places. Many councils, such as in Glasgow, prohibit drinking alcohol or carrying an open container of alcohol in public places. On all ScotRail trains drinking is not allowed between 9pm and 10am in a bid to curb anti-social behaviour.
