The Fox and Hounds in Studio City is the official home of Arsenal Los Angeles, but its reach extends to nearly every Premier League supporter group in the Valley. The bar opens as early as wildly early at 4:30 AM for major matches, complete with an English breakfast menu and a lineup of British ales. Scarves and signed jerseys cover the walls, and the clientele is a mix of British expats and local die-hards who treat the bar as a second home. On North London Derby days (days when north London rival teams Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur match up), the crowd often spills onto the patio. The Fox and Hounds describes itself as “a proper British pub,” so you can count on being able to watch nearly every game at this LA soccer bar when the World Cup matches get underway in 2026.

Joxer Daly’s in Culver City is a longstanding headquarters for Liverpool and Arsenal supporters, with both clubs’ official LA supporters’ groups calling it home. Te soccer focus at Joxer’s is evident as soon as you walk in, with banners, scarves, and match schedules plastered to the walls, and staff who are well-versed in the nuances of being an English soccer bar. Like The Fox and Hounds, this LA soccer bar also opens quite early for matches in Europe (an eight-hour time difference), and the Irish breakfasts are available just as early. Joxer Daly’s also shows MLS and international games, and its location in Culver City makes it a convenient stop for fans from Venice, Santa Monica, and beyond. The bar regularly hosts themed events for finals and derbies, often with giveaways and club-specific drink specials, so it’s extremely likely it’ll have quite the party going on when the World Cup begins in 2026.

It’s pretty easy to tell from the name alone that Tom’s Watch Bar is one of the most well-known sports bars in LA. It sits directly across from the Crypto.com Arena (formerly the Staples Center) and serves as the official LA Galaxy watch party venue. It’s not joking around when it comes to watching matches, with more than 150 screens arranged in a 360-degree screen setup so every seat has a clear view. LA Galaxy hosts frequent events at Tom’s, including player appearances, supporter rallies, and giveaways. Tom’s carries the full “MLS Season Pass,” making it one of the few bars in LA to reliably show every MLS match, not just the Galaxy. The menu is group-friendly, with shareable plates and a rotating list of beers. On match days, the crowd is a mix of die-hard Galaxy supporters and neutral fans drawn in by the electric atmosphere and central location, so it’s a good place to watch 2026 World Cup games no matter who you’re rooting for.

Springbok Bar & Grill in Van Nuys is LA’s only South African-owned soccer bar and an official bar partner of the LA Galaxy. Naturally, it shows every Galaxy match, as well as major international tournaments like the Africa Cup of Nations and the World Cup. The menu is also more exciting that your average sports bar, with South African specialties like boerewors rolls, peri-peri chicken, and biltong, alongside American bar classics. Regulars at Springbok include both local MLS fans and expats following the South African Premier Division; it also shows rugby and cricket when soccer isn’t on the screen. The large outdoor patio is a draw for big match days, and the bar frequently collaborates with supporters’ groups for themed events and charity fundraisers. Plus there’s karaoke on Thursday and Sunday nights.

Ye Olde King’s Head in Santa Monica is a second home for British expats and Premier League fans in LA’s western stretches. The bar opens early for Premier League matches, filled by supporters’ groups for Tottenham, Chelsea, and Manchester United. That means the bar is generally filled with regulars, making it one of the best LA soccer bars to swing by when you’re planning on cheering for England — or at least a team a key Premier League player is on. The pub’s collection of memorabilia like signed shirts, historic photos, and club banners has been collected over time, reflecting its long history as a soccer destination in LA. There’s even an on-site British that sells imported snacks and FC merch, plus afternoon tea service ’til 4 PM.

The Greyhound Bar & Grill in Highland Park is the official home of the Los Angeles Spurs, the supporters’ club in LA for London’s Tottenham Hotspur FC. The bar opens early for every Spurs match, with fans regularly filling the bar and spacious outdoor patio, even on early mornings. The Greyhound kitchen serves up full English breakfasts on match days, and the supporters’ group makes sure big matches are celebrated. On match days, expect coordinated chants, halftime raffles, and special events for major fixtures — which means you shouldn’t come in cheering for whomever the Spurs are up against. Like most LA soccer bars, the Greyhound also screens other Premier League and European matches, but Tottenham Hotspur matches will always take priority, with a crowd that knowns every song and stat. Fortunately, the Spurs will likely have several players fielding World Cup teams, so the bar will probably be lively throughout the 2026 matchups.

La Chuperia in Lincoln Heights is the go-to place for fans of Liga MX and the Mexican national team. It’s a popular gathering spot for supporters of El Tri (the Mexican national football team, nicknamed “La Tricolor,” or “La Tri,”) with every match shown on multiple screens, usually with commentary in Spanish. La Chuperia’s walls are adorned with soccer memorabilia, and the energy is always high during Liga MX and El Tri matches, with fans chanting, debating lineups, and celebrating like they’re in the stands at Estadio Azteca. The bar’s signature micheladas, rimmed with Tajín, are a must-order for, who will likely be packing this LA soccer bar above all others when Mexico is playing.

Cork & Batter is the closest true sports bar experience to SoFi Stadium, which will be hosting the 2026 FIFA World Cup in LA. So whether you can’t scalp a ticket or just want to be close to the action, it’s the place to go. Cork & Batter is a three-story venue that meshes a modern sports lounge with a rooftop bar and restaurant, making it a versatile spot for before or after matches. Expect wall-to-wall TVs, and energetic crowd (especially before and after games), and an elevated bar food menu. The location near the games should make it lively during all the games, but it’ll be absolutely wild when matches are across the street.

Cork & Batter: 3900 W Century Blvd, Inglewood, CA 90303
