The English Premier League is fully featured together with the most important games from the Italian Serie A, The Spanish Primera Division, Africa Cups of Nations, The German Bundesliga as well as the matches from The Champions League and The Europa League, American Football (NFL and College Football), hockey (NHL), Formula 1 and AFL (upon request) are also part of our sports schedule! We have 4 rooms entirely equipped with HD screens and you can come and support your favourite team with commentary in the original language! The fans of soccer can also enjoy the games from other European and South American Championships but those usually come upon request! Rugby, basketball (NCAA College and NBA as well as Euroleague), tennis (The Grand Slam Tournaments), and golf ( The Masters and Ryder's Cup).

** Games marked Requested - the games that have been "already requested" might not necessarily be televised if the people who have requested them fail to arrive 30 min prior to the start of those games (or, for the late games 60 minutes before our closing time which is usually at 2am). Certainly, we accommodate other requests in the case the customers who have made the original requests do not show up.
