1. Brewerkz Indoor Stadium

Brewerkz first landed on the shores of Singapore in 1997 and has now branched out into three different locations here: Riverside Point, Orchard Rendezvous Hotel and Singapore Indoor Stadium. Sometimes, what you need most after an excruciatingly long week is a hangout session with your closest friends as you sip on your well-deserved tall and cold beer. Toss in the buzzing sound of sports commentary in the background, we personally think it sounds like the perfect way to sizzle a week’s worth of stress away already.

The brains behind Brewerkz understand that chilled beer and greasy Western food makes a good accompaniment to passionate cheering. So fill in your dosage of weekly football as you get your grub on the heartiest burgers and wood-fired pizzas in town. The classic Hawaiian Pizza comes topped with a generous amount of mozzarella cheese, juicy pineapple cuts, ham, olive and jalapeno slices for the hot kick. Handmade, the pizzas here are served with a thin-crust which are both soft and delightfully chewy.

Not in the mood for carbs? Make sure to get the Spicy Chicken Satay instead. Beware though because the satay here is not our regular small pieces of meat on a stick. The large chunks of meat are well grilled and taste even better when coated with the rich peanut sauce.

Brewerkz updates their live screening schedules regularly on their Facebook, so all you need to do is plan well and get vouchers from ChopeDeals before you make your way there!

Source: Brotzeit

 

Brotzeit is a typical Bavarian expression – "Brot" being German for bread and "Zeit" for time. The name of the popular German eatery implies that a cosy meal should be complemented with fresh beer. Get your hands on Bavarian cuisine as the sports commentaries buzz busily in the background. The VivoCity outlet is a hot favourite when it comes to catching live football matches or golf tournaments with friends of the same interests.

The Gebackenes highlights their best deep-fried finger food. Crispy golden brown prawns, dory fish fillets, chicken fingers and thickly cut potato wedges complete the dish. Alternate your bites with a dip of mustard, mayonnaise and a special sweet-sour condiment for a new taste every time.

Meanwhile, the Würstelplatte is an authentic sausage platter consisting of spicy chicken sausage, lamb sausage, mini pork cheese sausages, weisswurst sausage and garlic sausage. This comes with sauerkraut (fermented finely cut cabbage slices) and mustard. Pair these with a frothy beer of your choice and you are set for the night. Beer and sausages - weird to some but a true delicacy to those with exquisite taste.

The Squid Ink Paella uses Arborioa infused rice with seasoned broth and squid ink. It is then pan-fried and topped with your choice of chicken & chorizo or seafood. So rich in flavour, you will probably plan for a returning visit before you even finish your plate!

The Signature Baby Back Ribs are available in two serving sizes. They are carefully stone-grilled until the flavours are well-preserved in every cut of the meat. Immediately after, it is glazed with an in-house barbecue sauce before served with a side of creamy coleslaw and thick fries.

Monday nights are reserved for homemade pub quizzes - on facts and popular culture - where plenty of free booze can be won with the right answers. The chill atmosphere, finger lickin’ good bites, and welcoming staff make this the perfect place to drink while you get on your weekly dose of rugby and football.

Sports enthusiasts would know that Buffalo wings are synonymous to sports pub meals now. The Public House serves 10 gorgeous wings with every serving. The Deluxe Burger boasts an in-house marinated all-beef patty, topped with sauteed mushrooms and bacon on seasonal vegetable. Their special sauce is spread evenly in a brioche bun before being served with fries.

The Bacon Cheese Fries is creamy, rich and meaty all at once. Not exactly recommended if you are looking to lose weight but who cares? If anyone asks, tell them it’s your cheat day because nothing is better than greasy food after the occasional disappointing matches.

If you frequently go for late-night booze with your pals, chances are you have swung by this long-standing pub a couple of times. The very first McGettingan’s pub started operations in Ireland in the 1960s, before moving to Dubai and Abu Dhabi. It eventually landed in Clarke Quay, Singapore and has been keeping locals and tourists happy ever since. Here, patrons are always kept entertained with great live band music, trivia quizzes, Irish food, fantastic booze deals and live sports screenings.

If you are looking for a pub that can offer a no-frills night out with classy yet rustic interior to boot, McGettigan’s is the answer to your searches. Apart from football screenings, they show the likes of UFC, rugby, golf and tennis as well. With everything available under one roof, its easy to tell why this particular pub is recommended everywhere. 

Speaking of Irish pubs, fish and chips must not be missed. The Beer Battered Fish and Chips are fried the perfect colour of golden brown and bursts with freshness of the sea on the inside. Other signature McGettigan’s favourites include the Atlantic Salmon and Beef and Guinness Puff Pastry Pie.

For finger food, you can place an order (or as many as you would like) of their Pork Belly Popcorn and McGettigan's Chicken Wings. The Pork Belly Popcorn is the epitome of sweet and savoury with soy, honey & sesame seeds while the latter comes in two flavours: BBQ or Buffalo sauce with chunky blue cheese dressing.

While North London’s Tottenham Hotspur might have Harry Kane and Harry Winks (#COYS), Singapore has 21 Harry’s to date. Founded in 1992, Harry's was once a shophouse jazz bar and has now evolved into an established F&B group. It is the top few enduring dining and bar chains which screen just about any big matches from football to rugby and tennis to cricket.

Leave the comfort of your couch and catch the next big football match at Cafe Football. Whether you are a Kopite or a Gooner, matches from all sorts of clubs are screened here!

This football-centric cafe is partly owned by former footballers, Gary Neville and Ryan Giggs, and is the very first Asian outlet after its establishment in the United Kingdom. This cafe is essentially heaven to all football lovers. From barstools to dining tables, choose wherever you wish to sit at. Here, you can chill while watching a football game and enjoy good food all at the same time. 

The menu offers pizza, burgers and a number of Asian dishes. We strongly recommend the Team Platter where Satay Skewers, Corn Chip, Crispy Jumbo Shrimp, Fried Chicken Wings, Salad and Dipping Sauce are served on a plate to share. The Crispy Jumbo Shrimps are huge in size with crunchy batter and sweet juicy flesh, tastes even better when dipped with the tartar or sambal sauce provided

Get the Lamb Shank with Mashed Potatoes and Salad if you are up for a filling meal. Expect tender meat that will melt in your mouth, refreshing salad for balance and creamy homemade mashed potatoes. The soft lamb meat will blow your expectations off the roof.

Team Burger is served in a dish that mimics a burger takeout box, definitely worthy of an Instastory snap. It consists of beef patties with chicken bacon strips, mushrooms, caramelized onion, cheese and tomatoes. All in all, Cafe Football is great for fellow footies to gather over quality American food and football matches!

It features a relaxing ambience where big groups of family or friends can spend time by the riverside at the open-air seating area. Head inside whenever you need some fresh blast of air-con but you will have to be quick on your feet as it gets packed really fast on game nights.

Boomarang offers a wide variety of Australian food and has one of the best weekend brunches in town. This includes starter plates, salads, pizzas, burgers, grilled and seafood dishes. Only the freshest ingredients imported directly from Australia are used and prepared daily.

Pair your beer with some Devil’s Ribs and Boomerang Deluxe Pizza - great to share around with your pub mates. Take things up a notch and try the Peppered Kangaroo Loin for the true Australian experience.
