Paddy's Loft

Paddy's Loft at 1286 Hicksville Road boasts a lucky 13 HDTV's and several great food and drink specials, such as $5 pints and $12 pitchers of whatever beer they have on tap.

Johnny McGorey's

Well-known sports pub Johnny McGorey's, located at 131 Front St across from the Massapequa Park LIRR station, is running the games on multiple big-screen TVs while offering guests their standard drink specials throughout the day.

The Blue Parrot

If you're a casual sports fan who doesn't need to have 100% of his attention on the game at all times, the Blue Parrot is a good alternative place to watch the game. Why? Because they have live music lined up this weekend, so you can rock out while keeping tabs on the game out of the corner of your eye. 

Coyle's Tavern

Coyle's Tavern, located at 1 Central Avenue (former home of Porky's Pub), always plays the big games on their 12 big-screen TVs, and March Madness is no exception. No specific specials are in the cards, but Coyle's says their hook is to be cheaper than the competition. Food and drink specials do appear at Coyle's but they tend to be random. A good place to hang out and be possibly suprised.

McCann's Pub & Grill

McCanns Pub & Grill at 5590 Merrick Road is a hip and happening joint to take in the game, what with big-screen televisions every way you turn. Add their regular drink specials into the mix and you've got a recipe for some March Madness fun.
