Sports Bars

While sports may not be a priority on the Parisian agenda, the testosterone pumped underbelly of the city means you’ll have no problem finding your favourite team on a nearby screen. Football (soccer) and rugby are among the preferred sports most commonly broadcast in bars, but some bars have become popular for showing North American favourites like hockey, baseball and (American) football on their big screens. The Moose (16 rue de Quatre Vents, 01 46 33 77 00) and The Great Canadian (25 quai des Grands Augustins, 01 46 33 54 20; www.tgc.com) both in the 6th and The Beaver in the 4th (19 rue des Deux Ponts, 01 43 26 92 15) are all worth a look. You can also visit www.allomatch.com for a listing of which bars around Paris will be showing various international sporting events.
