Patriots vs. Kansas City: Where to Watch in Somerville

SOMERVILLE, MA—The New England Patriots are about to begin defending their Super Bowl Championship.

The 12-4 AFC East division champion Patriots will square off against the red-hot Kansas City Chiefs for a shot at the AFC Championship Game. Are you going to sit on the sidelines? Absolutely not!

If you’re lacking some motivation, the T.C. Williams Titans are here to help you out.

All jokes aside, there are lots of great games to watch, and great games demand great locations. The NFL Playoffs are here and only four teams remain in the AFC. Therefore, here’s a rundown of four places in Somerville that can satisfy your football cravings:

1. Parlor Sports, 1 Beacon Street: Yelp reviewer Meg C. of Somerville writes: “Generally speaking, this place has enough TV’s that you could watch a number of sporting events at the same time (and the bartender actually asked what game incoming clients wanted to watch). Though I doubt I’ll want to stuff myself in to such a tiny place (i.e. it likely gets packed) during the playoffs, this is now my local Bruins bar!”
2. Olde Magoun’s Saloon, 518 Medford Street: Yelp reviewer Augusto T. of Somerville writes: “One of the reasons I love watching football here is because they play the games with the sound on and there are tons of TV screens. It can get packed, so if you are in a large group you might not be able to get a table unless you come early. ”
3. On The Hill Tavern, 499 Broadway:Yelp reviewer Richard D. of Haverhill writes: “Awesome Local bar. The Pitchers and Food are cheap and its the perfect place to come during the NFL Season. Every TV has a different game on and perfect spot to come in, spend 20 bucks on their Pitcher and large wings combo, and enjoy.”
4. Orleans, Davis Square, 65 Holland Street: Yelp reviewer Andrew D. of Cambridge writes: “Came here on Halloween to watch a couple of college football games. Other than a crowd of costumed partygoers in full revelry, it was a good experience. Plenty of space on a Saturday night. Good service - checked in often enough, and were helpful with changing the TVs for the games we wanted to watch.”
