Reasons to watch sport in the pub

1. Catch live sports on the big screen

You can’t claim to have a great pub sport atmosphere without the right channels, and that’s why at Greene King you’ll find Sky Sports and TNT Sports across a range of different pubs. Be sure to never miss a match, fight or race with our live sports channels, guaranteed to show all the biggest sporting events of the year.  

Visiting the capital but want to catch the match? Get in on the pub sport atmosphere at the Maple Leaf in the heart of Covent Garden, one of the best pubs in London for live sports. A weekend away doesn’t mean you have to miss out on the action, with Sky Sports and TNT Sports screens, you can explore all the must-see spots whilst getting in on the must-see games

2. Experience pub sport atmosphere and unlock deals 

There’s no better reason to watch sports in pubs than to score yourself a great deal! The Greene King Sport app is your go-to destination for all things sports, with special access to match-day offers, the chance to predict scores and discover your nearest sports pubs. 

Amp up the pub sport atmosphere by downloading the app and earning yourself 10% off your drinks every match day, whatever day of the week - whoever is playing!  

You can grab a cheeky pint at the Butcher’s Hook in Fulham before the big game over the road at Stamford Bridge Football Ground and make the most of our app in a fantastic pub sports atmosphere. 

Or, secure front-row seats to the big boxing match with your best pals at the Ball in Sheffield. Whether you’re up north or down south, our Greene King Sport app helps to make watching sports at the pub, all the more fun.

3. Exciting live sports and even better pub food

If there’s one reason to watch sports in the pub it’s to fill up on tasty pub grub and fuel up for the action in a lively pub sport atmosphere. Our pubs serve a wide range of food so not only can you watch live sports with your friends, but you can have a feast! From pub classics like hearty pies, fish & chips and stacked burgers to Sunday roasts and meat straight off the grill, our pubs have it all! 

Gather with friends and tuck into huge sharers and sides as you keep an eye on the ball. Why rush to make a meal during halftime when you can have it brought to you by our friendly team as you watch the match?  

Even our sportiest of pubs are big on food, like Birmingham’s much-loved spot the Beeches, where you can tantalise your tastebuds whilst still being involved in the thick of the pub sport atmosphere.  

Savour the flavour of our delicious dishes and make great savings for all the family at Local Hero (Leicester) on game days. So, not only have we got the live-action covered, but we’ve also got your cravings covered! 

4. Cheers to the big game with great drinks

There wouldn’t be a pub sport atmosphere without the sports but more importantly, without the drinks! A cold pint of your favourite beer as you watch your team score, now that’s the perfect pairing. 

Maybe you’d prefer to take it up a notch with our selection of spirits as we get closer to the final whistle. Whatever your drink of choice, you can be sure that we’ll have something for you behind our well-stocked bar.  

If you’re looking to make a night out of it, take yourself to Lass O'Gowrie in the centre of Manchester right by Manchester Oxford Road Train Station. A city hub, with Sky Sports and TNT Sports screens, this pub is perfect for match-day drinks in a lively pub sport atmosphere. 

And, if you want to keep the drinks flowing after the match, head into Manchester’s city centre. For an evening of fun, you can even make it a pub crawl with further drinks and take a walk to to the Deansgate, another spot guaranteed to have a fantastic atmosphere.
