Grab a beer and relish the opportunity to soak in the sport from 100 screens beaming out an eclectic range from football and rugby league to Formula One and tennis. Key American sports are also shown - popular with the sizeable expat and tourist crew who love this place. The Sports Café is also popular with the England cricket team's Barmy Army group of fans, so expect big turnouts and lots of noise for major fixtures. There are also six pool tables, free wi-fi access and a Nintendo Wii console if you feel the need for a diversion from on-screen sports. Buffalo wings, nachos, wraps, burgers, ribs, steaks are served in the dining area, and DJs play chart hits from 10pm on most nights.

The only two things this place has going for it is its location and the many TV screens inside. But actually, you only watch one screen at a time so it doesn't really matter if there's a gazillion, and there's many other pubs and bars in the area that show live sports too.

This place is an absolute rip-off for drinks and food, and is always so jammed packed with tourists that its impossible to enjoy a game. The worst bit is the service; you expect maybe a few rude waiting and bar staff, but the managers, especially the assistant manager, just ignored us and laughed when we enquired why our food and drinks were so slow.

Clearly the management think that they have so much business due to their location that they don't have to bother with customer service. I for one will not be patronising this place again.
