8 "Sports!" restaurants in London.
These are the places that A) serve good food and B) have televisions that will be showing any big games. Some of them only serve bar food, but don’t act like that isn't what you want when you're watching sports. Even if your team doesn't win, come hungry and you'll at least leave somewhat happy.
The Bank of Friendship is a homely old-school Highbury pub that let’s your order in Yard Sale’s excellent pizzas.
The Yucatan is no-nonsense multi-screened sports pub that lets you bring whatever food you like, if you ask nicely.
The Builder’s Arms is a great pub on a backstreet in Kensington, serving pretty good food and snacks.
The Lighthouse is a pub in Battersea that does imaginative and unexpected pub grub, and has a nice patio.
Bar Italia is a classic Soho institution, and a perfect place to people watch, grab a cup of espresso, and just hang out.
Island Queen is the sort of pub you go to if you want to settle down for an afternoon of schmoozing or watching the big match on a large-screen TV.
