11 places to watch the festive footy in Liverpool

Here’s where to watch the footie in Liverpool, this Christmas and beyond.

We’ve reached the stage that can make or break a season, and it’s a busy festive season for the city’s Premier League clubs. 

With FA Cup Third Round fixtures to face in the New Year and plenty of Premier League points to pick up along the way, the action comes thick and fast over the next few weeks. 

Will Everton continue their surge up the table on the back of their points deduction? 

Will Liverpool still be in the title race when the deccies come down? 

Nobody knows. But we do know that if you can’t get match tickets, the city centre has great gaffs to watch the televised games. 

Here’s your starting 11. 

Punch Tarmey’s

Liverpool’s Premier Irish Bar Punch Tarmey’s, is a superb spot to take in the togger. 

With colossal video walls and 18 screens, you won’t miss a kick at this cavernous venue. 

A lively atmosphere is guaranteed, and walk-ins are welcome. 

The Bridewell 

Live footy and craft beer is the gear. 

And you’ll find both in plentiful supply at The Bridewell. 

The multi-award-winning pub is ideal for fixtures with late kick-offs when you want to see the action from somewhere as warm and cosy as your living room. 

The Denbigh 

Whisper it, but this sister venue to The Bridewell is sweeter on The Toffees than The Reds. 

But it’s a cracking pub to watch the game whatever your persuasion. 

Warm, welcoming, and somewhere you’ll always strike up a conversation, head to The Denbigh if you prefer running your own post-most match analysis with the regulars. 

Roxy Lanes Liverpool 

Roxy is the home of booze and ball games. And the perfect place to be if the result doesn’t go your way. 

With bowling, ice-free curling, tech darts, American Pool and more, the new Roxy Lanes has loads to help you forget the pain of conceding a last-minute winner. 

Gravity Max

With three bars and Liverpool’s largest rooftop terrace to choose from, Gravity Max in Liverpool is quickly becoming a must-visit for watching the match. 

Want to get a bevvy in before half-time? The bar on the heated all-weather terrace is self-serve. Let’s say that again. Self. Serve. Bar. 

Plus, you can celebrate your team winning three points with a victory lap on the E-Kart track. 

McCooley’s Mathew Street

Watching the match at McCooley’s is a rite of passage. 

The Concert Square and Mathew Street venues have countless big screens and plenty of seats. 

Their Bits and Pieces menu offers food you can enjoy during the game, too. 

Hang around for fantastic live music if you’re making a day of it. 

Jurgen’s Bierhaus 

Jurgen’s Bierhaus is definitely Red. 

Expect wall-to-wall LFC artwork and memorabilia, brilliant deals on booze, and a partisan crowd.  

Get on the Erdinger and shout tactical instructions like Klopp. 

Abbey Road 

Abbey Road on Harrington Street is one of the most popular places to watch the match. 

And rightly so. With loads of big screens, fantastic food and the finest pint of Madri in the city, the Harrington Street bar feels like home turf for Reds and Blues alike. 

Harrison’s

If you like watching the game in a proper pub, Harrison’s is right up your Victoria Street. 

The basement bar’s video wall and screens mean no restricted view.  

But don’t only sing while you’re winning. Get your name down for karaoke, whatever the result. 

Point Blank

At Point Blank, you can see the game on the big screen and then show your strikers how to hit the target. 

The UK’s first and only simulated shooting range serves premium cocktails, frosted pints and fully loaded American snacks at their speak-easy style bar. 

You can’t miss. 

The Hope & Anchor

Consistent, dependable and with an eye for the spectacular, The Hope and Anchor on Maryland Street is what every squad needs on matchday. 

The perfect place to chill with your mates and enjoy the good things in life like beer, burgers and a hard-fought away win.
