Hancock

Thanks to both Sky and BT Sport, as well as a load of pool tables for games, Hancock is one of the best pubs for catching every moment on screen. Not only that, but there's bao buns, steak and Guinness pie, and all your favourite pints to get stuck into.

The George Stephenson

A proper Newcastle boozer named after the man who helped put this place on the map, The George Stephenson is a top spot for live sport. As you sink into a steady flow of perfectly poured pints, you can watch every second of the action on the big screen. 

You can show off your sporting skills here too. Step up to the oche for interactive darts or grab a cue and pot your way around the pool table.

Fleet Street Newcastle upon Tyne

5 x Baby Guinness shots for £15 and 9 other offers

Right in the heart of the city, Fleet Street Newcastle Upon Tyne is one of the top sports bars Newcastle has to offer. Just moments from Central Station and the Bigg Market, this polished yet proper Geordie pub delivers a fab matchday experience, complete with huge screens showing all the biggest fixtures, from the Premier League to the Champions League and World Cup clashes.

Expect a buzzing atmosphere, a strong line-up of beers and cocktails at canny prices, and a crowd that lives and breathes football. 

The Geordie Star

Whatever sport tickles your tackle, Geordie Star has got you covered. This place beams the lot on its big screens, from the Premier League and Champions League to rugby, cricket, boxing and plenty more.

There's plenty more to keep you entertained pre- and post-match too. We're talking pool, darts, Xbox and long list of pints from the pumps.
