The Best Sports Bars in Birmingham
Quite the underrated city for sport, and the forthcoming 2022 Commonwealth Games host, Birmingham has a history of it all: football, cricket, rugby, you name it. It’s also a city fortunate enough to be home to an array of sports bars, from the more traditional bars through to some of the more sport crazy venues. Here’s our rundown of some of the best!
1. Rileys
Bar, Pub Grub, Cocktails, Beer, Wine, British
2. Snobs Bar & Grill
Bar, Nightclub, Pub Grub
Little do most people know that everyone’s favourite indie club Snobs actually has a day-time bar and grill. In said bar and grill they regularly show the biggest football, rugby and boxing matches, with great value food and drinks too. It’s a regular tradition to watch evening game there and carry on into the club…
3. Shooters Sports Bar
Bar, Pub Grub
Proudly the home of Birmingham’s biggest LED screen, Shooters is one of the city’s newest sports bars. Showing a range of sports, from football to darts and boxing to NFL, this place should cater for everyone. Oh, and their food is pretty good too.
4. Walkabout
Bar, Australian
The Aussie Bar, or Walkabout as it’s officially known, has been a mainstay on Broad Street for just about as long as we can remember and is one of the best places to watch sport in Birmingham. With a number of large screens and plenty of tables across their versatile club space, it’s no wonder why people flock here whenever there’s a big sporting event on.
5. Hennessey's Bar
Bar, Pub Grub
One of Birmingham’s most popular Irish bars, Hennessey’s is a great choice to watch live sport. Situated in Digbeth, just a short walk from the Bullring and Birmingham Coach Station, this family run favourite is perfect for watching the football before partying into the early hours.
