The lead-up to a big football tournament is often the most joyous – the air is palpable with the possibility of glory, you have upwards of ten preview podcasts ready to fill commute time with, and you’re already making plans with friends to decide where to watch the matches.

Whether you’re after room for a private group, a vibrant party atmosphere or simply want to enjoy some good food and drink while watching, we have you covered with our list of the best places in London to watch the Euros in 2024.

Hawksmoor

Rolling out for the first time, you can book your own private screening of any live match of the Euros in Hawksmoor’s private dining rooms. 

No queuing at a busy bar, no restricted views of the screen, guaranteed seats, the very best of Hawksmoor’s menus served sharing style, and your own dedicated serving team.

Daffodil Mulligans

Head to Old Street to find Daffodil Mulligan – a vibrant and lively restaurant known for its blend of Irish and international flavours.

With two large screens at each end of the restaurant, you can easily catch the game while enjoying your meal, and it offers one of the best foodie pub experiences. Don’t miss out on their burger – a forerib of beef and bone marrow cheeseburger with a beef fat brioche bun, and of course one of London’s best pints of Guinness.

Its Irish background means you shouldn’t expect the most fervent support for England – it’s a great place for any Irish, Scottish or Welsh fans looking to avoid that Boxpark-like atmosphere.

Barge East Gardens

Have you ever watched the football on the side of the canal? If not, this might be your year. Barge East Gardens – located just next to one of London’s best sustainable restaurants, Barge East – in Hackney Wick is screening every England game. You can book both individual standing and group tables here. Plus, all bookings include a welcome beer on arrival per person.

Big Penny Social

Perfect for those who aren’t actually heading to Germany this summer but still want to replicate the frenzied crowd experience. The Big Penny Social is massive, and complete with a giant LED screen, immersive sound system and even a house band for the England games, this is where you want to go if you’re looking to get carried away.

Not just for England fans (although go at your own risk), they will be showing every single game throughout the tournament, so if you’ve taken work off at 3pm on a Tuesday to watch the ‘fascinating tactical battle’ between Switzerland and Hungary, this is your place.

Deals on offer for the Euros include two pints of beer and a burger for just £25 and 12 buttermilk chicken wings and four bottles of beer for £25 – just be sure to pre-book.

Hotel MUNDIAL

The football purist’s venue. Cult football magazine MUNDIAL is putting on a fan festival in East London in this converted boutique hotel. The perfect place for those equally excited to watch Turkey against Georgia as you are Spain against Italy.

Expect incredible sandwiches from Dom’s Subs, beers from Budweiser and Camden Brewery, classic football shirts for sale, and the tentative promise of some famous ex-players.

Blues Kitchen

With buzzy locations in Brixton, Camden and Shoreditch and live music seven nights a week, they will also be showing all the England games this summer – whether it ends in glorious victory or a crushing group stage exit.

Tables for groups of up to five are available for £5 per person, and groups of ten or more have the option for private screenings.

Bluebird

So far, summer 2024 hasn’t exactly been the sun-soaked season we all want and remember fondly from watching the World Cup in 2018. But, with nothing apart from blind faith and a total disregard for meteorological forecasts, we think heading to a terrace to watch the Euros is a great idea.

Step forward Bluebird, the iconic Chelsea location, which will be doing exactly that and rolling out its outdoor screen.
