Updated Dec. 9, 2023. You’re in Lisbon on vacation, where do you go to watch a game and have a few pints? Try one of Lisbon’s Irish or English pubs.
Most of them are located near one another, near the Cais do Sodré metro station, or in Bairro Alto, fairly close to the Baixa-Chiado metro station (both on the green line). They are all open seven days a week.
Where to watch a game in Lisbon?
Watch a game at Lisbon’s Irish & Co Pub
Located in the northeastern Parque das Nações neighborhood, you can watch a game and have a pint at Irish & Co, or you can enjoy views of the river from their waterfront terrace, or the upstairs dining room and mezzanine. On Saturday nights they have karaoke from 11 pm – 2 am.

Official site: Pub Português – Pub in Lisbon (business.site)
Giving this pub an honorable mention, even though it is neither Irish nor English. It is Portuguese-owned, and it is a Portuguese pub, but the small place gets a lot of love and has great drinks at great prices. And you can watch your game there.
Final word on Lisbon’s Irish and English pubs:
I am not affiliated with any of the businesses mentioned on this page. Some of them might be pricey, and some of them might be touristy, and some of them might be packed. You are in Portugal, not Ireland, or England. Lisbon’s Irish and English pubs all provide a place where you can socialize, watch the fixture, and have a pint or a shot of whiskey.
Sláinte, or Cheers, mate!
I hope you found a good place to watch a game in Lisbon!
