The long-awaited rugby is here for the season and it’s time to hit up the pubs and enjoy the rowdy atmosphere once again. It has been a while! With the excitement building up, things are getting booked up ASAP, however, we’re here to lend a hand in planning your football outings. Check out our round-up of the best places to watch the Six Nations in Liverpool which are taking place over February and March.
1. Boom: Battle Bar
Boom: Battle Bar in St Johns Shopping Centre is certainly not missing out on the sport’s fun. With three huge screens, beer on tap and food such as burgers, wings and hot dogs from Icon, it’s the place to be for the coverage of all major live sports. And even if the score may not be what you’re looking for, you can always get stuck into a good game of beer pong, crazy golf, darts, pool or shuffleboard, or even blow off some steam with axe-throwing (but do take care!). You can either book your table to watch the footy via their website or by sending them a DM on Instagram.
Boom: Battle Bar, 101-110 St Georges Way, L1 1LU
2. The Shipping Forecast
The Shipping Forecast is the place to be when it comes to digital darts and watching live sports in Liverpool, and Six Nations is no exception. Expect flat-screen TVs, digital darts and plenty of drinks on draft.
The Shipping Forecast, 15 Slater St, L1 4BW
3. Bierkeller
One of the city’s thriving venues, the Liverpool Bierkeller frequently screens live sports – with multiple screens and projector screens, plus a massive LED superscreen, to accommodate footy fans. Bookings are now open for the rest of the Euros, too, so you can snap up a table ready for the matches. Enjoy cold beers, steins and pitchers, as well as 8-pint beer towers, stein cocktails and more.

4. PINS Social Club
Sports fans won’t miss a game as both PINS Social Club’s bar will be showing all the matches. Plus, the outdoor pop-up will be making an exception on opening hours in order to show the England Six Nations games. Summer in the Square will also feature drinks packages, which include cocktails, sharers, draught, bottles and cans, wine, champagne, as well as soft drinks. At their Duke Street bar, all screenings will take place in Rocco’s Games Room and there will be additional screens for the England matches in their Ping Pong Room. You can book your table here.

5. Pattersons
Another gem in the Baltic Triangle, not forgetting their OG in the city centre, where you watch the Euros is Pattersons. There’s nothing quite like a pint of beer and crispy fried chicken whilst watching the football and luckily this bar and restaurant has got us covered. You can munch on Pattersons’ buttermilk chicken whilst witnessing penalties as they are taking bookings to watch the tournament via their website. Plus, they are launching a number of new specials as well as some drinks offers during the tournament.
Pattersons, 28 Gradwell Street, L1 4JH
107 Stanhope Street, L8 5RE
6. Love Lane Brewery
A much-loved and industrial-style brewery found in the Baltic Triangle, Love Lane Brewery serves up cold pints with plenty of space to watch the footy – and they’re screening the Euros matches this summer. One of Liverpool’s top taprooms, guests can expect tons of beers on tap, as well as tasty grub like pizzas, fries and burgers (good match food, if you ask us) and a proper atmosphere. The brewery will be showing Six Nations matches being played by England, Scotland and Wales on their projector, so you can enjoy the sights and sounds of the taproom while watching the games live.
Love Lane Brewery, 62 Bridgewater Street, L1 0AY
