Welcome to Beerhaus, a tavern for those who love to hold a frosty pint in one hand and high-five fellow sports fanatics with the other. Beerhaus serves as a modern-day coliseum for beer aficionados and athletic enthusiasts to unite under one roof. It’s a sanctuary where the sacred rituals of hops tasting and game-watching are celebrated in equal measure.

Beerhaus has everything a sports fan needs, inside and out. The outdoor patio offers the perfect blend of fresh air and energy. Inside, the scene is just as inviting, with rows of gleaming taps offering a beer menu that’s as diverse as the crowd it attracts. Here, the tap selection features everything from the boldest IPAs to the smoothest stouts, each one waiting to make your acquaintance and argue its case as your new favorite.

But Beerhaus knows that even the finest brew is best enjoyed with a side of heart-pounding action. That’s where the multiple TVs come into play, strategically positioned so you won’t miss a moment of the game. From the opening whistle to the final score, you’re covered. This is where fans can converge, where rivalries are temporarily set aside (or passionately debated) in the name of mutual admiration for the game.

Beerhaus doesn’t play around when it comes to fueling up for the big game. The menu features gourmet takes on game-day staples that elevate the eating experience. Whether you’re in the mood for a pretzel as big as your head or sliders that pack a flavor punch worthy of a heavyweight title, every bite is a winner. It’s the kind of food that complements your drink and makes the game that much more enjoyable.

So come on in, grab a seat, and experience the ultimate destination for beer and sports lovers in Las Vegas. Here, every game is a home game, and the taps are always flowing.

3. Joe’s Bar

Ah, Joe’s Bar. Coming here is like stepping into a cool Chicago bar without ever leaving Nevada. The unique midwestern sports fanatic vibe makes me picture the old SNL skit with the Bears superfans chanting, “Da Bears.” If you’re a Chicago fan, a Vegas hockey fanatic, or a Michigan alumni, this quirky sports bar might just feel like home. Located away from the hustle and bustle of Las Vegas’s bright lights, Joe’s offers a refuge for those who prefer their game days without a side of sensory overload. 

Joe’s doesn’t skimp on the beverage options. While it may offer a cozy Midwest setting, this bar is serious about keeping its patrons well-hydrated with an assortment of drinks that can quench any thirst. From the hoppiest of IPAs to the smoothest lagers, and even a curated list of wines for those who aren’t beer-inclined, Joe’s Bar makes sure no one’s glass runs dry.

Food-wise, Joe’s hits all the right notes with its Chicago-style menu. We’re talking about those comfort food classics that pair perfectly with the game-day drama. Their wings are a must-try, slathered in sauces that range from mouth-wateringly tangy to daredevil spicy. And for those with a hearty appetite, the burgers are nothing short of legendary — thick, juicy, and just messy enough to require a handful of napkins. Plus, you can never go wrong with an order of squeaky, cooked-just-right cheese curds.

In a city known for its extravagant spectacles, Joe’s Bar offers a refreshing change of pace. Sometimes, less is indeed more, especially when it comes to enjoying the game. So, if your idea of the perfect sports bar includes a relaxed vibe, friendly faces, and a comfortable seat with a clear view of the action, then make your way to Joe’s.

2. Moondoggies

At Moondoggies, the games never end. This 24-hour sports and gaming bar offers all the comforts of a hometown Buffalo Bills bar — yes, including delicious wings! — under the dazzling lights of Vegas. The retro decor and fun memorabilia highlight all the best in Buffalo sports and more.

When it comes to TVs, size and clarity matter when you’re knee-deep in the game. Moondoggies’ big-screen TVs are perfectly placed, ensuring that you won’t miss a single play, no matter where you’re sitting. And with their state-of-the-art sound system, you’ll hear every crunch and whistle as if you were standing on the sidelines, without the need for instant replays.

Available from 11 a.m. – 3 a.m., Moondoggies offers a menu that’s both familiar and inventive. Their burgers are juicy, flavorful, and satisfying in a way that only a true burger connoisseur can appreciate. And for those looking to sip something special, Moondoggies’ extensive beer list offers a refreshing, frothy brew for every palate.

Don’t let the laid-back vibe fool you, though. Moondoggies is serious when it comes to sports. No matter the season, you’ll find fans congregated, eyes glued to the screens, living and dying by every point scored. It’s a place where cheers and jeers intermingle, where high-fives are doled out freely, and where you can lose yourself in the sheer joy of the game.

Moondoggies manages to straddle the line between a traditional sports bar and something far more eclectic. It’s a spot where nostalgia and novelty dance together under the glow of neon lights, where the game is always on, and the welcome is always warm.
