Our Take on O'Reilly's Irish Pub
O'Reilly's holds Paleisstraat 103 to 105, directly behind the Royal Palace on Dam Square, and runs as the city center's most reliable sports pub. The official fixture list covers Premier League, Champions League, Six Nations rugby, GAA and the rest of the calendar across multiple big screens.
Iamsterdam, the city's own guide, files it among the best places in Amsterdam to watch live sport. That endorsement matches the matchday reality, the room fills an hour before any big kickoff.
The pour is the other draw. Guinness anchors the taps, and the kitchen backs it with fish and chips and spicy wings that Tripadvisor reviewers flag for generous portions.
Hours run 11am to 1am Sunday through Thursday and stretch to 3am on Friday and Saturday, long enough to carry a full Premier League Saturday into the night. Staff keep the screens negotiable when fixtures clash.
Reserve a table for derby days, walk in otherwise. For the wider scene, see our Amsterdam sports bars guide, the best sports bars in Amsterdam, and the full Amsterdam bar guide.

When To Visit O'Reilly's Irish Pub
Saturday from noon runs the full Premier League slate and the room builds all afternoon. Book a table for the 5.30pm kickoff or stand happily at the bar.
Sunday GAA and rugby mornings are the local secret, calmer crowds and the same screens. Quiz and music nights fill the gaps midweek.
