Head to the pub to watch rugby live

Rugby is the ultimate game of power, passion, and precision. From super rugby fans to new supporters, it’s a thrilling spectacle that can captivate viewers, whether you’re cheering on your beloved local team or England on the international stage.

The stadium may offer a great atmosphere, but there's something so special about watching rugby at the pub. Witness every try and tackle with your fellow fans and enjoy big screens that offer perfect views. Keep your eye on the score as you sip on something special and tuck into a tasty plate ahead of the second half.

We've got plenty of pubs to catch all the live rugby action, from Hungry Horse, Flaming Grill, Metropolitan Pub Company and Greene King Pubs. And while our Chef & Brewer and Crafted Pubs pubs may not offer live rugby on the screens, there are plenty of reasons to visit post-match with a tempting plate or a drink from the bar. A real try-umph.

From the Six Nations to the World Cup, what live rugby can you enjoy?

From international showdowns featuring the England men’s squad or the incredible women’s Red Roses to top-level club action, you can catch every tackle, try and last-minute kick on the big screen.

Our collection of pubs have you covered for all the biggest moments, whether it's the Rugby World Cup, which sees great nations like England, Australia, South Africa and New Zealand battle it out to lift the top prize, or the Six Nations, which is an annual rugby union tournament that pits England, France, Ireland, Scotland, Wales and Italy against each other. There's also plenty of Premiership live rugby matches in Rugby Union and Rugby League.

With Sky Sports, TNT Sports, BBC and ITV on our big screens, we’re committed to making sure you don’t miss a second of rugby on TV and can also tune in to the top highlights. Watch the best of the best battle it out for the Rugby World Cup trophy, the European Rugby Champions Cup, the Bledisloe Cup, or the Six Nations title. It’s those unforgettable moments that make live sport at the pub truly special.

We'll keep the drinks flowing

A great pub and a perfectly poured pint go hand in hand, but there are plenty of tipples to tickle your fancy at our pubs. Treat yourself to a beer from Greene King’s iconic range, or enjoy a 0% option, like Guinness, from the low and no-alcohol selection.

There's lots of full-bodied wines on offer, whether you crave something white or crisp, light and rosé-coloured or velvety and red.

Hungry Horse has a great choice of drinks, as well as daily deals to keep costs low, like Wine Wednesdays and Fizzy Fridays. Flaming Grill also has plenty of offers to stay budget-friendly, including pints from less than £2.50.

Toast to a try, cheers to a monster kick downfield or quench your thirst for the nerve-wracking moments that leave your throat a little dry. Whatever the occasion, our bar team are ready to pour.
