Best-of list · Sports Guide
Ten ranked Copenhagen bars to watch the game, from Radhuspladsen match pubs to Manchester United and St Pauli homes, with screens and sound tips.
The short answer
10 ranked rooms follow. How we picked is at the end of this guide.
Copenhagen takes its beer and its football seriously, and the two meet in a cluster of pubs around Radhuspladsen and the streets off Stroget. The best rooms post fixtures in advance, put the sound on for the headline match, and stay open past the final whistle. These ten get those calls right.

These are the dedicated rooms, screens through the bar and a posted schedule, built for a crowd that wants the match on with the sound up.
Beyond the 10
The Moose on Svaertegade has poured affordable beer since 1996, a wood-lined room with graffiti, a football table and screens for the match. It opens daily from 3 pm and runs into the early morning.
The Old English Pub opposite Tivoli was built in 1992 around a nineteenth-century bar counter, showing Premier League football on Sky and pouring a long list of malt whiskies. Live music fills the nights without a match.
How we picked
Copenhagen gives you a clear choice on game day. Pub & Sport, Shamrock Inn and The Globe are the dependable rooms with posted schedules, the Radhuspladsen corner runs late and loud, and the club homes deliver the partisan edge: United at Den Glade Gris, St Pauli at the Minibar, FC Kobenhavn at Osterbros Perle.
We checked every bar against its own current listing plus at least one independent guide, including LiberoGuide's Copenhagen football bar ranking, and ranked each on screens, sound policy, leagues shown, the crowd, and whether the room posts its schedule.
