We rate the bars based on how welcoming they are, how many TVs and sports they show, and the food and drinks they provide. We have traveled Canada to discover the best sports bars in the country to provide the definitive collection of sports bars so that sports fans around Canada know the best place to enjoy a game with a drink.

If you just enjoy a Sunday dinner in a bar with an atmosphere or are a die-hard sports fan who wants to watch a mid-week game with friends, we’ve got you covered. All the bars on the list serve great food, have a solid selection of drinks and, of course, TVs to show the sports on. Some bars are better than others in these areas, but since this is about sports bars, we’re rating them largely based on the sports shown and variety available. Some bars focus on one sport more than others and therefore the list changes based on which sport you wish to watch, but keep in mind that none of these bars allow sports betting.
