The Best Bar to Watch Football in Every State

It’s the early days of football season (and of the hundredth season of the NFL), and in all 32 pro football cities and almost every college town in America, fans are filling stadiums or — in far greater numbers — sports bars and similar establishments.

Watching a game live is an unforgettable experience, but there’s also something special about kicking back with friends or friendly strangers, having a few beers, eating food that’s not on your usual diet (and maybe that you don’t need knives and forks for), and sinking into the action — usually, thanks to modern technology, at a much closer distance than you’d ever obtain in a stadium.

These are the best bars for watching football in every state

What makes a great sports bar? Lots of high-definition TVs, to begin with, with good lines of sight from anywhere in the place and an excellent sound system. Oversized projection screens are a great addition, too, bringing you the players in larger-than-life reality. Subscriptions to the top sports channels — like NFL Sunday Ticket and the networks of regional college conferences — are a given. Comfortable seating is another important factor, since you’re going to be committing hours of your time to watching the game.

Then of course there’s food and drink. Sports bar food should be casual, indulgent, fun. Pizza, nachos, ribs, burgers…. And of course chicken wings, which are practically a legal requirement for a sports bar (it’s no accident that sports-themed chains sometimes put these avian appendages right in their names — Buffalo Wild Wings, Wing Stop, Wild Wing Café, etc.).

And nothing goes better with wings, or with football, than beer. Any top sports bar will have a good selection of brewskies, on tap and in bottles and cans. These should include everything from Bud Light to the local craft IPAs that might well be among America’s most delicious beers.

Collections of sports memorabilia are a nice touch and help set the scene, but they’re not essential to a sports bar’s success. Sometimes just being around a long time and establishing a reputation as a good place to relax and watch a game is enough — which is the case with at least some of the oldest bars in every state.

Football fans are particularly passionate about their teams, so one thing that’s important to consider when choosing a place to watch the game is what kind of fans you’re likely to find there. That’s not to say that an Aggie can’t enjoy a game at a Longhorn watering hole or that you shouldn’t wear a Packers jersey into just any old bar in Chicago, but the best bar for watching football is probably one where you can just gnaw those wings and quaff that brew and watch that game without getting into any trouble.

To determine the best bars for watching football in every state, 24/7 Tempo consulted ratings and reviews of sports bars in general and football bars in particular around the country on Yelp, as well as roundups of such places, ranked and otherwise, on about 20 websites, including those of Sports Illustrated, Bleacher Report, Eater, Delish, Gayot, The Daily Meal, Business Insider, Thrillist, Men’s Health, and Trip Savvy, as well as numerous regional sites. Most quotes were taken from reviews by Yelp users.

California: Ricky’s Sports Theater and Grill

Ricky’s has been known as the ultimate hangout for Oakland Raiders fans (it’s less than 15 minutes from the Oakland-Alameda Coliseum). Whether or not fans will still come after the team relocates to Las Vegas next year remains to be seen. In any event, Ricky’s has also been named one of the best places in the Bay Area to watch the Super Bowl — not least because it boasts more than 90 TV screens.

Florida: Station 28
> Located: Miami

Yelp covers some 647 sports bars in Florida, and this one ranks fifth highest of them all. The food here is Peruvian (including “hamburgers and sandwiches made in Peru”), and the international clientele indoors or in the colorful outdoor sports bar may be somewhat oriented to “futbol” (soccer), but American football is on the viewing menu, too, and the place has been hailed as one of the best places in Miami to watch the Super Bowl.

Georgia: Murph’s
> Located: Atlanta

Murph’s proprietor Dale Murphy says that the place was “inspired by my love of baseball.” On weekends, though, it’s definitely a football bar, with Florida State games on the screens on Saturdays, and NFL action on Sundays. Displaced Rutgers and Notre Dame fans tend to gather here, too.

> Located: Honolulu

This popular Irish pub is party central for University of Hawaii Rainbow Warrior fans. It also hosts a charity fundraiser, the Pigskin Pigout, to kick off football season each year.

“It’s all about the Saints here and we’re always wishing and hoping for a good season,” bar owner Rollin Garcia told Biz New Orleans a couple of years back, and the Saints memorabilia all over the walls supports his claim. Basically a neighborhood dive bar once featured on the HBO series “Treme,” Bullet’s offers live jazz and blues but also features what the drinks website Punch described as “television sets tucked in the back of the bar screen[ing] a constant loop of the day’s athleticism du jour, from almighty football to a down-and-dirty boxing match.”

For Pats games and college football alike, Mark’s gets high (pardon the expression) marks from Yelp reviewers.

According to one Yelper, “When it comes to staples of a good sports bar (TVs, beer, food) Parlor excels. There are plenty of TVs located around the bar and nary a bad seat in the house. A huge plus is that the bartenders actually appear to be sports fans and are incredibly responsive to requests for specific games.” Both NFL and college contests are shown, and the Iowa State Alumni of Boston usually gather here to watch Cyclones games.
