If you’re new to Singapore and a football fan, you’re going to need to find yourself a decent local watering hole that shows the English Premier League. Here are a few of our favourites…
Boomarang Bistro and Bar
60 Robertson Quay , 01-15 The Quayside
Located by the scenic Singapore River, Boomarang (yes, with an “a” in the middle!) serves authentic Aussie cuisine with a side-order of all kinds of football.
Chijmes
30 Victoria Street, 187996
Head to Chijmes for a spot of open-air football in the surrounds of an old convent. While this is an attractive tourist spot by day, by night big screens descend behind the fountain and show the live matches
Muddy Murphy’s
442 Orchard Road, #01-02 to 05 Claymore Connect Singapore 238879
Not just known for great food and beer, Muddy Murphy’s also utilises six big screens to catch all the live sports. Packed with expats, it’s a great place to have a few drinks and you won’t be frowned upon for being lively – it’s an Irish pub!
Sahara
58 Boat Quay
This spot offers decent priced beer and Middle Eastern food, and the owner, Esad Sejdic, is an ex-professional footballer.
