Best Sports Bars in Dallas

14 venues where every game matters, every screen counts, and the energy is electric

  1. 01

    Draft Pick Sports Bar

    Deep Ellum · $$

    80 screens across three floors. The pre-game ritual for Cowboys and Stars fans. Early arrivals score the prime booths; late arrivals stand shoulder-to-shoulder with cheerleaders.

  2. 02

    The Rustic

    Uptown · $$

    Massive outdoor venue with 14 screens across the patio. Cold Texas craft beers on tap. Game-day energy so electric you can feel the Cowboys' touchdowns in your chest.

  3. 03

    Truck Yard

    Lower Greenville · $$

    Outdoor warehouse bar converted into a watch-party palace. Multiple screens, picnic tables, and nachos so loaded they double as defensive linemen. Best drunk snacks in Dallas.

  4. 04

    Happiest Hour

    Uptown · $$

    Rooftop and indoor combo for when the weather can't decide. Great for NBA playoff crowds who take basketball as seriously as Dallas takes football. Line gets long; arrive early.

  5. 05

    The Avenue Sports Grill

    Lower Greenville · $$

    A wall of high definition screens on Lower Greenville with a full kitchen and every game on. The Avenue opened in 2019 and built its name on clean sightlines, weekend brunch, and a friendly weekday happy hour. Arrive early for a marquee matchup, since the main floor fills fast.

  6. 06

    Windmill Lounge

    Lovers Lane · $

    Neighbourhood sports dive with pool tables, dart boards, and 20+ taps. No pretense, no attitude, just locals watching the game the way it should be watched.

  7. 07

    The Common Table

    Uptown · $$$

    Beer hall with 60 rotating taps and all major sports packages. Communal tables mean you'll make friends (or enemies, depending on the call). Texas craft is king here.

  8. 08

    Dallas Cowboys Club

    AT&T Stadium area · $$$

    Floor-to-ceiling screens and blue everywhere. The definitive Cowboys pregame spot where you'll see jersey numbers from 1980. Arrive at kickoff-minus-three-hours for good standing room.

  9. 09

    Henry's Majestic

    East Dallas · $$

    Vintage sports bar with weekend brunch and watch parties that start early. The kind of place where the bartender remembers your drink order after one visit.

  10. 10

    Ozona Bar and Grill

    West Village · $$

    Patio bar that fills to capacity for every Stars game. The vibe is right, the drinks are cold, and you'll understand why West Village stays loyal.

  11. 11

    BrainDead Brewing

    Deep Ellum · $$

    Craft brewery turned game-day hotspot with Texas BBQ bites. Home brews taste even better when your team wins. The back patio is prime real estate on Sunday.

  12. 12

    Vs. Sports Bar

    Lower Greenville · $$

    Competitive gaming meets traditional sports bar. Retro arcade cabinets line the back. Watch football or beat your rival at Street Fighter—this bar does both.

  13. 13

    The Porch

    Knox-Henderson · $$$

    Gastropub porch with 25 screens and refined Texas bar food. The kind of place where you'll watch football but also remember what you ate.

  14. 14

    Victor Tango's

    Lower Greenville · $$

    Late-night sports bar with inventive cocktails and a 3am license. When other bars close, the game isn't over yet. Perfect for those extra innings, overtimes, and last-call believers.

  15. 15

    Happiest Hour

    Victory Park

    Happiest Hour spreads four full bars and a rooftop deck across 12,000 square feet near Harry Hines, with fifty beers and wines on tap.

  16. 16

    Lee Harvey's

    Cedars · $$

    Lee Harvey's is a Cedars dive with a large dog-friendly patio, cold beer, live music, and games on the TVs. A Dallas original since the early nineties, it pulls a mixed crowd onto the lawn on warm nights. Come for the patio and the burgers.

  17. 17

    The Skellig

    East Dallas · $$

    The Skellig is a Henderson Avenue Irish pub with two patios, a beer garden, Guinness on tap, and matches across the screens. From the team behind Blackfriar and The Idle Rich, it runs DJ nights late and pours both Irish standards and local brews.

Money lives in Uptown, and so do rooftops. The Rustic and Happiest Hour command views along with your double-tall whiskey. The Common Table brings the beer-geek energy. On game day, this neighborhood is a who's-who of Dallas' establishment.

The scrappier, younger energy. Truck Yard feels like a carnival. Victor Tango's closes when you want it to. Vs. brings the gaming angle. This street is where you go if you want volume, variety, and an after-hours option for overtimes.

The luxury play. The Porch in Knox and Ozona in West Village are where you go when you want to watch football but not look like you're just watching football. Better cocktails, better food, better views. Fewer cargo shorts.
