Boston is one of our favorite cities. It has it all: the bustling city, the ocean, the restaurants, the night life, the history and most importantly, the best sports teams (we might be a little biased on this as we are based in this wonderful city).

If there’s one thing Bostonians know how to do, it’s how to watch sports. Locals and tourists alike congregate at all the Boston sports bars to support their favorite teams, even if they are rivals.

As hockey and basketball come to an end, baseball gets rolling and football looms on the horizon, it’s important to make sure you’re cheering your team on at the best sports bars in the city. Check out our list of the best sports bars in Boston below!

They have an enormous patio, perfect for getting some air when your team isn’t doing as well as you’d hoped. They also have great pub-fare, all the way from the wings to the fish and chips.

Somerville

Located at the Cambridge and Somerville town line, this quaint but often busy bar is filled with a courteous crowd. Let’s just say you can wear a Yankees hat here without getting punched in the face. It also opens early on weekend sand days with morning or afternoon games.
