Singapore's sports bars are where fans gather for kickoff, the scrum and the lights going out at a Grand Prix. This guide rounds up nine established venues built around live match screenings, each checked against its official site or current listings. Expect big screens, draught beer and pub-style food, spread across the Boat Quay and Circular Road strip, Orchard, the riverside and the Sports Hub. Treat it as a shortlist to explore, and confirm each bar's screening schedule before you head down.

1. Boomarang Bistro & Bar

Founded by two Australians and set on the riverside at Robertson Quay, Boomarang bills itself as a home of live sport in Singapore. Big-screen HD TVs carry international telecasts through the day and late into the night, from Premier League football and rugby to Australian codes, Formula 1 and major finals. The kitchen runs an all-day Australian-leaning menu of pub classics alongside coffee, craft beer and cocktails, and the venue markets itself as family-friendly, so it works for a casual match day as much as a big fixture.

2. Harry's

Harry's is one of Singapore's longest-running bar chains, with a spread of outlets from Boat Quay and Clarke Quay to Dempsey, HarbourFront, Sentosa and Changi Airport. The group runs a dedicated sports-streaming programme, screening football, rugby, cricket and basketball across its venues, and promotes larger screenings around events such as the World Cup. Expect a familiar pub-and-kitchen format of burgers, wings, fries and a broad beer list. Because coverage and hours vary by location, it is worth checking which outlet is showing your match before going.

3. Muddy Murphy's Irish Pub

Muddy Murphy's is a long-established Irish pub tucked into Claymore Connect off Orchard Road, with a traditional cottage-style interior and open-air courtyards. It leans hard into live sport, with multiple big screens carrying football, rugby, Formula 1, UFC and even Gaelic games, and it adds live bands at weekends plus a regular quiz night. The kitchen serves hearty pub food and a rotating line-up of international beers on tap. The layout, split between an air-conditioned bar and outdoor seating, suits both a quiet pint and a packed match night.

4. Molly Malone's Irish Pub

Molly Malone's, on Circular Road near Boat Quay, is among the older Irish pubs in Singapore and keeps a classic, wood-lined public-house feel. It screens live sport across several screens, spanning football, rugby, Formula 1 and Australian codes, and pairs match days with live music on many nights. The menu covers Irish and British pub staples such as fish and chips, and pours Guinness and other draughts. It is an easy, unpretentious spot for catching a game on the riverside pub strip, especially for late kickoffs.

5. BQ Bar

BQ Bar is a waterfront sports bar on Boat Quay that puts live match viewing front and centre. It screens a wide sporting spread, including Premier League and rugby, Australian codes such as AFL and NRL, and Formula 1, with match audio on and multiple screens so fans can follow more than one game. The mood is casual and lively, geared to after-work drinks that carry into the night. The bar publishes its screening line-up online, so checking the current listings is the easiest way to plan a visit around a fixture.

6. Hero's

Hero's sits on Circular Road, a short walk from Boat Quay, and pitches itself as a live-music and live-sport bar in a spacious, Wild West saloon-style room. Major fixtures are shown on its screens, and the venue is well known for self-pour beer taps where groups pour their own draught at the table. Alongside sport there is live music most nights and comedy on a regular slot, plus a menu that mixes Western and Indian dishes. It is a good pick when you want a game with a busier, night-out atmosphere.

7. The Penny Black

The Penny Black is a Victorian-style English pub on the Boat Quay waterfront, built in England and reassembled in Singapore in the late 1990s. It is known for screening seasonal football and rugby, with HD screens across both its indoor rooms and its outdoor riverside seating so the game is visible from most tables. The draught line-up leans British, including English ales, and the kitchen turns out London pub staples such as fish and chips and roasts. The traditional setting and river frontage make it a comfortable spot for an EPL match with a pint.

8. Lion Brewery Co

Lion Brewery Co runs a taproom in a heritage shophouse on Club Street that doubles as a serious sports-viewing room. The venue lists several screens for live sport, including large LED TVs and a big projector screen, carrying football, rugby, tennis, Formula 1 and golf across the week. It is a working craft brewery, so the taps run to house-brewed beers, and the kitchen leans to gastropub plates such as fish and chips and wood-fired pizza. Pool tables and sofas give it a relaxed feel between matches.

9. Bar Soccer

Bar Soccer sits inside Kallang Wave Mall at the Singapore Sports Hub, a fitting home for a football-first bar right by the National Stadium. Multiple screens show live matches, with Premier League weekends a particular focus, and the venue is set up for a lively, crowd-driven atmosphere on big fixtures. Its signature quirk is Pool Ball, a mash-up of football and pool played on oversized tables, and it runs regular live-band and themed nights through the week. Stadium MRT is at the doorstep, making it easy to reach for match day.

How to choose

  • Match the bar to the sport you follow: Irish and English pubs like Muddy Murphy's, Molly Malone's and The Penny Black lean towards football and rugby, while Australian-run spots such as Boomarang and BQ Bar also carry AFL, NRL and other Southern Hemisphere codes.
  • Check the specific fixture before you go, as screening schedules change week to week and some venues only show selected matches; look at the bar's sports listings or message them to confirm your game is on and whether the audio will be on your screen.
  • Think about atmosphere: a quiet weekday pint suits a traditional pub, while marquee fixtures and finals fill the Boat Quay and Circular Road bars quickly, so arrive early or ask about reserving a table for big kickoffs.
  • Factor in kickoff times, since many European matches start late at night Singapore time; check the bar's closing hour and whether the kitchen is still open if you want food during the game.
  • Consider location and getting home: the Boat Quay and Circular Road cluster is central and walkable, Bar Soccer sits right at the Sports Hub by Stadium MRT, and for major events some bars run dedicated screenings that may need booking or a minimum spend, so ask about the arrangements in advance.
