Looking for pubs and bars to watch the Men's Six Nations in London?
This year's tournament kicks off on 5 February, running until 14 March. That's almost a month and a half of mauls, rucks, offsides and tries. And if you weren't lucky enough to nab tickets, there are loads of boozers and bars across the capital where you can watch this year's Six Nations Championships unfold.
Here's our pick:
Brigadiers, City
Screening all fixtures in its Blighters bar, Brigadiers promises to spice up the tournament with a special Six Nations menu, featuring Indian BBQ inspired by cuisines of the competing nations (think a Scottish crab samosa, a lamb rogan josh pot pie, etc). They're also pouring Six Nations-inspired beer flights, and cocktails made with Blackeye Gin — created by rugby legends Mike Tindall and James Haskell, alongside broadcaster Alex Payne.
Brigadiers, City
KERB Social Club, Spitalfields
Take your pick from the food traders that jostle for business in Old Spitalfields Market, then get comfy in front of KERB Social Club's big screens — they're showing each and every Six Nations tie, with Guinnesses and cocktails to go with.

The Broadcaster, White City
The Broadcaster, fittingly, is broadcasting all the Six Nations games, alongside the suggestion it'll hand over a free pint of Guinness to anyone who can split the G (presumably this is happening at a specific time rather than throughout the tournament, otherwise they're going to bankrupt themselves). The bar snacks sound yummy, feat. rare breed pork & apple sausage rolls with house-made brown sauce, and tiger prawn scampi with zesty aioli.
The Broadcaster, White City
The Vine, Kentish Town
Come for the Six Nations, stay for the shuffleboard at this sport-centric north London boozer, screening everything from the first kick-off to the final broken nose. Prem football is regularly shown too, meaning you can have yourself a sports megamix of a day out.
The Vine, Kentish Town
Boxpark, various locations
Various Boxparks (including Croydon, Shoreditch, Wembley and Camden) screen Six Nations matches on their ample HD screens, although not all venues are showing all matches — look here to see what's what. Get stuck into the action alongside copious amounts of superb street food (plus pints of not-quite-so-superb Pravha).
At time of writing, you can book a table for six people for £35 — and get six pints on arrival.
The Railway, Clapham
Every match gets an airing at this burger-slinging gastropub nestled between Clapham High Street and Clapham North stations. Tables are available to book throughout the Six Nations tournament; we recommend getting in there with your reservation early doors.
The Railway, Clapham
Faltering Fullback, Finsbury Park
Hands-down one of London's finest rugby pubs, the Faltering Fullback is an Irish boozer through and through, and a particularly savvy option for anyone cheering on the boys in green. That said, they screen every one of the 15 matches of the Six Nations tournament. Line your stomach with a cracking Thai curry, and be sure to step out for air during half time — the pub has a sprawling, multi-tiered garden. It's worth noting they don't take bookings: arrive early.
Faltering Fullback, Finsbury Park
The Ship, Wandsworth
Rugby jerseys and pints of the black stuff are a regular sight at this trendy riverside hostelry — and that's set to go into overdrive as the Ship screens 2026's Six Nations tournament in full. There's Guinness too, so you can spend half time practicing your G-splitting.
The Ship, Wandsworth
Daffodil Mulligan/Gibney's, Old Street
Daffodil Mulligan and its downstairs Irish sports bar Gibney's both show the Six Nations action (the former, all Ireland games; the latter, every single game) on multiple big screens, while pouring pints of their own brand stout (there's Guinness too). Daffodil Mulligan's focus is on the food: think queenie scallops and sugar pit pork overseen by chef Richard Corrigan. Gibney's peddles more spectator-friendly snackage, including Irish cold cuts, and salt 'n' chilli chicken.
Daffodil Mulligan/Gibney's, Old Street
The Three Lanterns, Leicester Square
Courtesy of huge screens hanging above the bar, plus another enormo-screen up on the wall, this central London sports bar broadcasts each and every Six Nations fixture — with the option to nosh on everything from fish & chips to buddha bowls.
The Three Lanterns, Leicester Square
Flat Iron Square, London Bridge
Head beneath the arches of Flat Iron Square to catch all the Six Nations hijinks on 19 screens indoor and out — plus a 16-metre jumbotron for good measure. There are 16 beers on tap, and lashings of street food options. Admission is £10 per game, including a drink. There's also a live recording of the Rugby Pod podcast on 22 February.
Flat Iron Square, London Bridge
Greenwood, Victoria + sister pubs across London
Premium sports lounge Greenwood's wealth of giant HD screens — the upstairs lounge alone has seven of them — makes it perfect for anyone who cares about getting a decent view of the match. What's more, they're showing the entirety of the Six Nations. Fair warning: it can get very busy, so getting down early is a must. Better still, book a table while they're still there for the taking.
Greenwood, Victoria. Other similar bars in the chain are Redwood (London Bridge), Broadwood (Old Street), Beechwood (Old Street), Goldwood (Bank), Westwood (Wood Lane) and Long Arm Pub & Brewery (Shoreditch). Yes, there are a lot of them.
London Welsh Centre, Gray's Inn Road
While it's fair to surmise that most punters here will be sporting red jerseys, the London Welsh Centre is welcome to all comers, and it's screening all five of the Welsh Six Nations matches on two massive projector screens — promising an electric atmosphere, helped along by pints of Welsh ale. The England match should have quite the atmosphere. If you're a non-member, it'll set you back just over a fiver per match.
London Welsh Centre, Gray's Inn Road
Cabbage Patch, Twickenham
Located a stone's ball's throw from Twickenham Stadium, the paraphernalia-strewn Cabbage Patch claims to be the most famous rugby pub in the world. All 15 matches are being shown. On the days England are playing, expect the atmosphere to be very... English.
The Cabbage Patch, Twickenham
Twickenham Brewery
The Rugby Bar taproom at Twickenham Brewery only unbolts its doors on special occasions, the Six Nations being one of them. It's showing England Vs Wales (7 February) and England Vs Ireland (21 February) on its three-metre-wide screen — offering beer lovers the rare chance to watch the game with a brew that doesn't feature a harp on the glass. (It goes without saying that pints of uber-fresh ale will help lubricate your singing voice.) No mention of the three other three games as yet.
Orange Tree, Richmond
A hop across the Thames from the Cabbage Patch is the Orange Tree, which bills itself as THE pub to watch rugby. There's certainly going to be one hell of an atmosphere in there this Feb/March — with the Twickenham hordes decanting into the joint pre/post match.
The Orange Tree, Richmond
Pub on the Park, London Fields
Perched on the side of London Fields, this modern pub is an excellent choice for Six Nations fans, with its infinite (well, seven) big screens — showing every game. Just remember when you book a table to tell them it's for the sports, lest you end up having to stream it on your phone.
Pub on the Park, London Fields
Big Penny Social, Walthamstow
Humungous bar/entertainment space Big Penny Social will undoubtedly see rugby fans flood through its doors for the Six Nations. They've got the space — 1,400 capacity to be exact. Don't worry about squinting to see what's going on; games are shown on two mahoosive HD screens. Over 20 beers are available on tap, and there's food galore. Entry's free, but book a table if you can.
Big Penny Social, Walthamstow
White Hart, Barnes
This mightily well-turned-out riverside boozer is a sucker for the rugby, and every match is being screened here, with the website inviting you to 'scrum on over' — nice.
The White Hart, Barnes
