Finding Phoenix Soccer Bars With the Right Games on TV

Many people, when they hear the word “soccer,” don’t immediately associate “Phoenix” with it. Phoenix soccer bars, naturally, have outsiders worried: do they even exist? If I’m passing through Phoenix and there’s a big soccer game happening, will I even be able to see it? Does Phoenix focus on other sports like football, basketball, and baseball?

 Well, worry no more, because you’d be surprised at just how many soccer games will be playing on TVs in bars throughout the greater Phoenix area. Although Phoenix itself won’t necessarily have a plethora of soccer bars, the entire community might yield you some incredible experiences that don’t require a lot of travel. Whether you’re a fan of the English Premier League, La Liga, or Bundesliga, finding a soccer bar with the satellite feeds to carry international games in Phoenix won’t be as hard as you might have thought going in. Here’s why.

First, the Phoenix area includes a lot of population – and a lot of television sets. Scottsdale and Mesa, Arizona are nearby, providing a lot more potential soccer bars than you might have originally thought you’d have access to. “So?” I can hear you saying, “Just because there are more bars doesn’t mean there are going to be more soccer games on the TV sets.”

Well, that’s not necessarily true. The higher yield of bars in the area, the more potential you have to find bars that emphasize soccer. Heck, a large enough sports bar with plenty of TVs will probably have so many channels and satellite feeds that you can simply ask them to change over to the FA Cup or to Fox Soccer Channel and you’ll be watching Manchester United or Chelsea in no time. It’s not as complicated as it seems.

But where do you begin? Well, you can start with a Google search – which may be how you ended up here. Then you can find specific bars, or take a few more generalized tips to help steer you in the right direction. Here’s our take: keep both types of tips in mind. Know the areas you want to go to and then find the specific phone numbers of the “soccer bars” you find. Call them ahead of time and ask them if they’ll be carrying a specific game. That’s it – once you find a bar that’s able to accommodate your wishes, you’re set.

If you want some more specific information, here’s our take on the Phoenix bar scene: know where you want to go before you actually head out. Downtown Phoenix can sometimes be hit-or-miss and can often be crowded if you go on the wrong night. Mesa can also be hit-or-miss because the sports bars there are a little more scarce than they are in the more urbanized areas. If you stick with our tip and call ahead, you should have no trouble picking out a bar and sticking with it until the final goal is kicked and the time clocks out.
