Arcade is another hotspot, with locations across the city in Battersea Power Station, Covent Garden, and Tottenham Court Road. This epicurean experience combines live sports with an incredible food menu featuring Indian, Thai, burgers, pizzas – you name it! And if you're looking for a full-on party vibe, Box Bar in Piccadilly is your jam: think HD screens, crowd-pleasing grub, and an electric atmosphere that'll keep you dancing till the final whistle.
For the ultimate immersive experience, head to Paddy’s Sportsbook at The Hippodrome Casino in Leicester Square – where a 10-metre big screen, table service, and private booths await.
