Best-of list · Sports Guide
Ten ranked Porto bars to watch the game, from Baixa sports bars and brewpubs to FC Porto haunts near the Dragao, with screens and matchday tips.
The short answer
10 ranked rooms follow. How we picked is at the end of this guide.
Porto is a football city with a local accent. Expat pubs are few, so most rooms keep a Portuguese feel, and the commercial center of Baixa around Avenida dos Aliados is where the city knocks off work and settles in for a match. That is where you find the dedicated sports bars and the brewpubs. Down by the Douro and up near the Dragao stadium, the rooms turn more local and more FC Porto, cheap beer and club history on the walls. One thing worth knowing before you cross town: some craft rooms show only terrestrial TV, which covers midweek Champions League but not every Premier League fixture. These ten cover all of it.
The commercial center holds the screens and the taps, from the city's pioneering sports bar to the brewpubs that put the midweek game on alongside the beer.
How we picked
Porto rewards matching the room to the match. For a guaranteed catch-all with big screens and a sports-bar buzz, the Adega in Baixa is the pick, with Bonaparte Downtown close behind. For a cheap, local, FC Porto night, head to Guindalense above the Douro. For the match over serious beer, Catraio, Musa and A Fabrica da Picaria lead the craft rooms. Confirm the feed, grab a Super Bock, and settle in.
Every bar on this list links to its full barsforKings profile and was cross checked against at least one independent guide before publishing. We ranked on the game day specifics that matter in Porto: the feed and the leagues shown, the crowd, the neighborhood and how the room handles a marquee European night. We exclude venues we could not verify as open. For the method behind every game day guide, see our pillar guide to watching the game. Last reviewed June 4, 2026 .
