Soccer Bars in other States

Soccer on TV

A word about cover charges:
Many visitors to the New York soccer bars are surprised to learn that there is an entrance fee to certain matches. It should be noted that these charges are not imposed by the bars themselves, but by the satellite company broadcasting the event (Usually Setanta).
The good news is that most games are now free including all Premiership and Champions' League games.

Cover charges are still imposed for certain FA Cup and International matches. These games have been marked PPV or CCTV on our schedule page.
Always check with your venue of choice to see if they are carrying the PPV event.
