Best-of list · Sports Guide
Ten ranked Las Vegas bars to watch the game, from Circa's giant sportsbook screens to off-strip locals' rooms, with leagues, sound and game day tips.
The short answer
10 ranked rooms follow. How we picked is at the end of this guide.
Las Vegas watches the game on two fronts. On and around the Strip the casino rooms go big, with three-story sportsbook screens, pool decks and reservation-only lounges that fill days ahead for a marquee NFL Sunday. Off the Strip the locals take over, in 24-hour taverns and Battle Born rooms where the Golden Knights and the home-team feeds run loud. With the 2026 World Cup landing in North America this summer, the soccer pubs matter too. Book ahead for the casino rooms and these ten cover the city.
On and around the Strip the rooms go big, so book days ahead for a marquee Sunday or a Strip watch party.

Ellis Island is a locals' casino, microbrewery and late-night karaoke bar off the Strip on Koval Lane, long valued for cheap food and a sportsbook. Wikipedia and Las Vegas Weekly both document its on-site brewery and 50,000-song karaoke catalog.

How we picked
Match the room to the moment. For sheer spectacle, the Circa sportsbook and Stadium Swim screens are unmatched, with Tom's Watch Bar the pick for tracking a full slate at once. For a real locals' crowd, Born and Raised and PKWY Tavern win, and Crown and Anchor is the call for an overnight soccer kickoff. Book the casino rooms early, then settle in for the slate.
Every bar on this list was checked against its own current listing plus at least one independent guide before publishing, and ranked on the game day specifics that matter: screen count and sight lines, the channels and feeds available, the leagues shown, the crowd, and how the room handles a marquee night. We exclude venues we could not verify as open and showing live sport. For the method behind every game day guide, see our pillar guide to watching the game.
