Finding good pubs/bars that aren't constantly full of people can be hard, especially when you want to watch Arsenal beat Liverpool in the Premier League. We've narrowed down some sports bars for you that are great for watching the game and where you can book a table to guarantee a spot in front of the big screen.
1. Rileys Sports Bar 🎯
Recently undergone a huge refurbishment, it's now the number one spot to play snooker, pool, and darts. Their bar is always full of life, and they now have a giant screen, perfect for watching all the current live sports.

2. The Box Bar 🍺
The Box is a classic student bar dotted all around the UK, and for this one near Bloomsbury its perfect for sport. It has a great atmosphere any time of the day, and with its many TVs for watching sports, you'll love it. (They also do 20% student discount).
3. The Marlborough Arms 🍔
A bit different from the bar scene, The Malborough is a more traditional, historic Greene King pub. It's a very popular spot to have a pint and watch live sports; they go crazy for Premier League games!
