[Albion] Pub near Borough Market for watching Cardiff game.

[heathgate]

As I am up in town for the weekend, where is the best place near Borough Market to watch the game Saturday lunchtime.... I normally like to avoid the blatant sports bars, but I am sure there is something appropriate that the 'oracles' of nsc can recommend.

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Don't forget Arsenal v Hull is on at the same time.

Both Old Kings Head and the Heeltap (opposite the George) will have it on might not have the sound on though. Former all most certainly won't latter possibly will.

Old Thameside Inn used to have sky....haven't been in there for a while so don't know if it still does. Know a mate watched Leeds in there at Christmas so I assume it still does.

Blue Eyed Maid shows sport but only seem to advertise Champions League and six nations when I was in there the other day so may only have BT Sport. I expect Bellushis has Sky but never have been in. The Ship further down the road towards Elephant does have sky and I'm sure they'll put it on for you.

Old Kings Head has multiple screens so they'll put it on one for you I expect. Friday they had rugby league on one, union on another and sky sports news on the third.

Expect Heeltap will be able to do the same.

Yep, that did it,... cheers,... at least the Arsenal game is on BT,... so that limits the outlets a bit.

Wrong side of town,... I am at the Museum of London in the morning, then Ting@ the Shard for afternoon tea,.... in between a few pints and some footy local to London Bridge.

Maybe worth a look - http://www.redcarpubs.com/The-Wheatsheaf/About-The-Wheatsheaf

It's called 'the sheaf' it's not the Wheatsheaf around the corner in stoney st.

 

[Hamilton]

Try the Wheatsheaf in the Market (this is not 'the sheaf' that [MENTION=22870]CPFC G[/MENTION] refers to, which is also worth a look.) There's a screen in the outside area that might show it. They have been showing Six Nations, but as there's a break this weekend, they may well show the game.

This is my proverbial home area.

The pubs around that area will be full of Millwall fans because they are at home on the same day, so most bars you won't be able to hear the sound. You could walk 20 minutes to the Doggits pub on Blackfriars Bridge which should be Millwall fans free as there are no direct trains from Blackfriars area to The Den

Does that make it a complete no go zone then?.... never went there pre match when up at the Den new or old, just passed through a few times.

The Old Kings Head is the busiest of Millwall Pubs as will some of the ones in and around Borough Market itself. You can walk a bit away from the London Bridge area and you will find some bars showing the match but a lot of the old traditional bars around there have gone all ''Gastro Bistro''.

The Doggits is only 20 minutes walk and that shows sport in certain parts of the bar. It also has a restaurant for lunch and I always call it the cheap mans Oxo Tower

Doggett's Coat and Badge is actually a 15 minute very pleasant stroll along the river from Borough market. They have a sports bar on one level and should be showing both TV matches, but it might be wise to call and check.

Always found The Bunch of Grapes to be more Millwall on a match day than the OKH. OKH seems to have the same clientele

Used to work opposite Doggetts and it was a rare bread as it is a pub in the centre of town that has a beer garden (front and back!) so would frequent it regularly in the summer. Staff are or certainly were frigging useless in there. Possibly one of the oddest pubs layout wise I think I've ever been in. Had forgotten about it to be honest. As [MENTION=3018]Peter Grummit[/MENTION] says check before going as they don't always open that floor.

Forgot about the Rose And Crown just off Southwark Bridge Road, they have Sky I think.
