As the Mecca of sports betting in the United States, many visitors are on the hunt for sports bars on the Strip and on Fremont Street to sweat out their wagers.
With that in mind, I wanted to compile a list of notable sports bars in Las Vegas to help visitors identify an option that will work nearby.
While seating at sports bars is usually easy to find for regular games, nearly every establishment below hosts watch parties for major events like the Super Bowl and the opening weekend of March Madness.
Ensure you reserve a seat with the venue in advance if you are hoping to watch a major event, or risk being turned away at the door.

The Book at LINQ: Acting as LINQ’s sportsbook, this expansive sports bar is smack dab in the middle of the Strip and is built to impress. The Book wows with screens in all directions, a nearby betting counter, and sectional couches that give your party control over 3 TVs and an X-Box. If you and your crew have multiple games to track, this sports bar is among your best options on the Strip.

PT’s at STRAT: Among my favorite things to do at Strat is placing an uncomfortably large bet, and then sweating it out at PT’s. With 24 craft beers on tap, relatively inexpensive food options, and no shortage of LED screens, I think you’ll agree.
TAP Sports Bar at MGM Grand: Located near MGM Grand’s sportsbook, TAP Sports Bar is a solid option to catch the game on the Strip. With 60 HD TVs and sports memorabilia as decor, you’ll feel right at home.
Topgolf at MGM Grand: When you think of sports bars on the Las Vegas Strip, it’s unlikely that a driving range will be an option, but Topgolf could be the perfect spot to watch the game as hundreds of TVs are spread across the complex. Whether you’re playing golf, sitting at one of their bars, or posted up in the TCL Lounge, you legitimately are unable to escape the glow of screens.
The Lounge at Excalibur: A sports bar at the south end of the Strip, The Lounge offers a selection of bottled/draft beer and cocktails with a view of a number of TVs. Commonly overlooked by sports fans, The Lounge is my go-to under-the-radar spot in which I can commonly find seating when other options are packed.
TAP Sports Bar at Excalibur: Decked out with TV’s, TAP Sports Bar at Excalibur could be the perfect destination to catch the big game, or pre-game for events at T-Mobile Arena and Allegiant Stadium.
Charlie’s at Wynn: Wynn ranks among the best sportsbooks in Vegas, and Charlie’s overlooks it, offering views of both the book’s crystal clear wraparound screen as well as smaller screens within the sports bar itself. With a healthy selection of draft beer, Charlie’s is among the best spots to catch a game on the Strip.
Tom’s Urban at New York New York: Found right along the Las Vegas Strip within New York New York, Tom’s Urban provides a great vantage point to catch the big game. They are so dedicated to sports, they even publish what games they plan to televise on Tom’s website.

In addition to the amenities mentioned, Dawg House has a stage and frequently offers live music.
Walk On’s Sports Bistreaux at Harrah’s: Occupying the former Toby Keith’s I Love This Bar and Grill space, Walk On’s is a sports bar that boasts Drew Brees as an investor. The menu offers unique items like beignets, gumbo, crawfish, and even alligator. Of course, traditional gameday fare like chicken tenders, wings, and fries are also offered.
Sportsbooks: Of course, most major sportsbooks up and down the Strip offer a bar with a view of their enormous screens. These can be some of the best places to watch sports in Las Vegas as the crowd around you hangs on every shot, pass, and turnover making for a lively atmosphere. I personally love the bar in Caesars Palace’s sportsbook which provides a great view and bartop video poker. After all, nothing beats gambling while you’re gambling.
