For those in the northern ‘burbs, Pizzeria Azzurri is a soccer lover’s dream. Futball is in their DNA as azzurri is the nickname for the Italian team, even if they aren’t playing in the Cup this year. The pizzeria is one of the few official OTP Atlanta United pub partners and is tapping Three Taverns’ “Rowdy And Proud” for the entirety of the festivities. The menu is filled with build-your-own pizzas, Italian-American classics like lasagna and cheese, crispy wings, and red sauce-laden sandwiches. There’s even options for the gluten-free here.

This OTP brewery in historic downtown Duluth plans to show soccer matches on a drop down projector screen. The 10-barrel facility at Good Word focuses production on IPAs, saisons, sours, and stouts which are on tap in the brewpub and for purchase to-go. Try beers like Rocksteady, Never Sleep, or Pale Murphy paired with the grit fritters, spent grain rolls, pork cheek tacos, or the GWB burger. 

No matter what neighborhood one lives in, there is probably a Meehan’s nearby with soccer on the telly. Meehan’s serves traditional pub fare like Guinness-battered fish and chips or a shepherd’s pie filled with lamb and vegetables. A popular favorite is the Meehan’s burger; a ground steak patty topped with sharp cheddar spread and smoked bacon on an English muffin. Meehan’s also has locations in downtown Atlanta, Midtown, and Sandy Springs.

Varuni Napoli aka “Varuni United” in Midtown plans to show every Atlanta United game this season on their TVs. Order a margherita pizza and pitcher of beer for $28 during matches.

Rí Rá Irish Pub in Midtown is always ready for beers and food for early morning soccer matches and to cheer on Atlanta United.

For many in Atlanta, Brewhouse is the quintessential soccer bar. Whether it’s cheering on the Five Stripes on a Wednesday night or gathering with Arsenal fans on a Saturday morning at 7 a.m., the crowds here are large and passionate about soccer.

Hampton + Hudson in Inman Quarter is an official pub partner of Atlanta United and will show every game throughout the season on their multiple TVs inside and out on the patio. Expect special food and drink deals during matches, as well as occasional giveaways.

The beer garden and restaurant on Marietta Street downtown offers multiple TVs for watching soccer and a menu featuring traditional German pub foods such as brats, pretzels with mustard, and strudels. German beers are on draft like Weihenstephan, Warsteiner, and Spaten. There may or may not be live music on any given night on the patio.

A favorite among both beer geeks and soccer nerds alike, this East Atlanta Village bar is just the spot to combine the two. Between sips of local brews, try the southwest style green chicken chili, thick with roasted poblanos and chicken or the hand-dipped corn dogs (beef or veggie) with a sinus-clearing spicy beer mustard. The expansive patio is also dog-friendly.
