McGowans is famous with the locals for a lot of things; the exceptional nightlife, the brilliant drinks, the sensational food, but first and foremost – sports.
No matter where in the world you’re from, if you’re a football fan, we’ve got a show for you. We show everything from the Premier League to friendlies and have 16 dedicated big screens for you to watch on.
We’re one of Dublin’s best sports bars, and being just down the road from the famous Croke Park stadium makes us the perfect stop to take on your way to (or back from) a game. We’re open every day of the week, so you can head downtown, kick back and enjoy a beer with your mates.

Watch Football In A Dublin Sports Bar
If you’re looking for a place to watch your favourite team fight for their championship, you’ve come to the right place.
If you’ve got a match you’re dying to watch with your friends, we’ll do our best to get it on the big screens for you – it’s almost as good as the real thing (but with more beer!).
Whether you want to watch the Premier League, Irish FA, FA Cup, FA Women’s League or any other fixture, just let us know, and we’ll try and get it for you.
Once you’ve visited Mcgowan’s sports bar, you’ll be dying to come back. We don’t want you to miss out, so we’d recommend booking a space for big groups, as we can get quite busy during big matches. Get in touch today!
Food, Drink And Football
McGowans is all about making match day the best experience possible, so we’ve got a range of fantastic snacks and drinks to keep you entertained whether you’re celebrating or commiserating your team’s results.
Celebrate a win with one of our specialist cocktails, or drown your sorrows in Guinness – the choice is yours (and both are excellent).
We have a great range of cocktails, classics like frozen margaritas and mojitos, and more experimental seasonal cocktails crafted with premium ingredients. But if you’re looking to keep it simple with a beer, we also have a brilliant selection of beers, spirits and mixers to keep you going all night long.
Unlike many sports bars, we don’t just do crisps and fries. We have a large selection of high-quality, delicious food with various chef specials every week.
We do light bites like nachos and hot wings, but we also do full meals like special stir fry and pizzas. We’re also proud to offer vegetarian and vegan options, making our food accessible for everyone. Check out our menu here.
