The Best Bars in Mexico City to Watch the 2026 World Cup

Mexico City Restaurants + Bars Festivals
by Matador Creators May 19, 2025

Mexico City kicks off the 2026 World Cup and will be a vibrant hub for action throughout. Fans don’t need to be going to each match at Estadio Azteca in order to take part in the festivities – matches will be streamed at restaurants and pubs across the city, including these spots in the Mexican capital’s most prominent tourist neighborhoods.

This guide highlights the best bars to watch the 2026 World Cup in Mexico City, organized by neighborhood for easy planning. Whether you’re looking for a classy spot in Polanco (or an American chain in the same neighborhood), a bustling pub with sidewalk seating in Condesa, or a definitive sports bar closer to the stadium, each listing offers a strong viewing setup and a menu to match — no match passes required.

Condesa

Celtics Pub Irlandés Condesa


With plenty of screens, a great beer selection, and a lively crowd, the Irish-themed Celtics Pub in Condesa’s northern area is a go-to for locals and tourists alike who want to enjoy a game with friends. Food is bar-level and tasty. The bar also offers live music and rooftop seating, and it’s a short walk to Parque México and the famous Churreria El Moro, perfect for a post-game churro dessert.

If a decent bar meal along with a match is what you’re after, El Aserrin is the spot. This gastropub features patio seating and cheap domestic beers, along with a good drink menu.

El Asserin: Fernando Montes de Oca 18, Colonia Condesa, Cuauhtémoc, 06140

BeerGarden Roma is a standout in Roma for its plant-filled, hip atmosphere and inclusive crowd. Known for screening major sporting events, it’s sure to be filled with expats, locals, and tourists throughout the World Cup. The bar offers a diverse food menu (including burgers and Korean fried chicken) and is open air, so you’ll hear the crowd roaring if anything happens as you approach.

Another Juarez/Roma hub for live sports is The Dog House Pub in Juárez, just a block over from BeerGarden Roma. This Brit-owned soccer bar pulsates on match days and will be a central hub for the World Cup, especially when European teams are playing. Walls are lined with massive TVs and soccer memorabilia and all key matches will be shown.

Just south of Polanco’s main district and off the east end of Chapultepec Park, Hamburgo Sports features an interior ringed by televisions tuned to sports (often soccer, and always soccer during the World Cup). Order a burger and post up for the match with fans from Polanco and Roma Norte.

Hamburgo Sports: Hamburgo 301, Juárez, Cuauhtémoc, 06600

Polanco

Cerveceria de Barrio


Cerverceria de Barrio has pubs all over the city, and its Polanco location is a hub for the expat crowd to watch sports. Show up early and expect it to be packed when Mexican, American, and European teams play.

Chili’s

Chili’s, of course, will show the games, for those seeking an easy answer. The chain has an outpost in northern Polanco in the Antara shopping mall, an easy walk or Uber ride from elsewhere in the neighborhood.

Sports and Chips Coyoacán is the best sports bar in a soccer-obsessed neighborhood. Tapas plates and an endless flow of beers are served to a crowd of both locals and visitors. Games are broadcast on the jumbotron-style screen in the center of the room and if you happen to be in the city while Mexico is playing, expect a rowdy atmosphere.

Toritos Lucas Sports Bar


Technically just north of Coyoacán in Valle Centro, Toritos is one of the city’s most popular sports bars. If you have a crew with you and want to grab a big table and hold it for a match, this is the spot if you’re on the south side of the city center. Service is quick, the beer selection extensive, and the atmosphere is entirely built around watching games.

Also located north of Coyoacán, Arena Sports is easy to access on Av. Insurgentes. The bar menu is typical and the food is well-regarded, but you’re here for the matches – which will be shown across a plethora of TVs.

Arena Sports Bar: 73-Local 284, Actipan, Benito Juárez, 03230
