If you love American Football or just enjoy watching live sports, or if you're simply looking for something fun to do on Monday, February 10, the NFL Super Bowl LIX is likely on your radar. This year, the teams will battle it out for the Vince Lombardi trophy at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana. With the NFL usually attracting an audience of hundreds of millions of viewers across the world, what better way to get among it than watching it surrounded by other NFL fanatics? With some help from The Pass, we've rounded up some of the best Melbourne Pubs to catch The Superbowl — we're you'll also be able to enjoy delicious American-inspired feeds.
The Duke of Wellington
The vibes are always high at The Duke, but especially on game day. The much-loved three-story pub and rooftop bar in the heart of Melbourne's CBD will be serving up both Coors and Bloody Marys alongside a range of American eats. You can watch on from the buzz of the ground floor or head to Level One for a more relaxed setting with the game on in the background. Book your spot here and get ready to celebrate Super Bowl Monday in style.
Garden State Hotel
Another pub in the CBD hosting all the Super Bowl action, Garden State Hotel is going all out for the festivities this year. With plenty of big screens, it's almost impossible not to get a good spot here. Don't let the early morning kick-off stop you – the beer garden and public bar will be serving classic American bites and drinks from 9.30am. Book your spot here.
Hawthorn Hotel
For a bit of sunshine as well as the game, hit up The Hawthorn Hotel to watch Super Bowl LIX, with all the action streaming live both indoors and on the rooftop. While we're keen for the game, the all-American menu the iconic Melbourne pub is offering is almost on par with the live action. You can expect hotdogs, wings, nachos and plenty of Coors to keep you going. Secure your spot by booking here.
The Victoria Hotel Yarraville
Why not watch this year's Super Bowl at everyone's favourite The Vic? With their mega-screen (if you know you know) in the beer garden showing all the action, it's set to be a pretty good vibe, to say the least. There will also be an American-themed food menu alongside the usual à la carte options, so there's something for everyone. Gather your mates and reserve your table before they get booked out.
Prince Alfred
The Prince Alfred in Port Melbourne is putting on the ultimate all-day Super Bowl experience. The pub will be opening its doors at 9am, so you can settle in for a day of $12 hotdogs, $1 wings and $20 beer and cider jugs. Depending on how your team plays, you could even stick around for Happy Hour from 3pm to 6pm and keep the party going. Book early to secure the best seat in the house.
Hopscotch
If you're stationed southside, head to Hopscotch to watch the match unfold. Watch the game on the many big screens around the pub and enjoy a delicious menu of Super Bowl snacks, brekkie specials and, of course, American beers. The best bit? There's live music after the game – we can't think of a better way to spend a Monday. Book your spot here.
Beer DeLuxe, Federation Square
Besides quality craft beer, Beer DeLuxe in Fed Square is set to be one of the most lively places to watch the Super Bowl this February. From 9am, indulge in an American menu featuring Buffalo wings, hot dogs and our personal favourite, Reuben sandwiches, plus 3L beer towers and all your usual Beer DeLuxe classics. Book your spot.
Provincial Hotel
Head to The Provincial Hotel in Fitzroy for a Super Bowl extravaganza, with the game playing across every level of the venue. Another one of Melbourne's top pubs to catch The Super Bowl, there will be an American-inspired menu – you know the drill – hot dogs, nachos, wings, cheesesteaks and beer. Make sure to book a table so you and your mates don't miss out.
The Prince
If you're an early bird, art deco hotel The Prince is probably one of the earliest places open on the big day, with the action kicking off at 7am. The pub also has some unique offerings, like a bottomless package priced at $79pp that includes one main American-inspired meal along with select bottomless drinks. Sound too good to be true? We recommend booking before the tickets sell out, this one's set to be a goodie.
Skinny Dog Hotel
Experience the Super Bowl live at the Skinny Dog Hotel in Kew. Things kick off bright and early at 8am, with a menu including brekkie burgers and wings to help wake you up in time for the game. If you're a Kew local or a visitor, book to ensure a spot on the big day.
The Swan Hotel
There's something about The Swan that makes it the perfect watch live sport – whether it's the beer garden or the classic pub feel, we're not sure. But what we do know is that this Richmond pub will be buzzing come Super Bowl day, and you're going to want to snag a spot.
