The Best Sports Bars for Watching the Rugby in Buenos Aires, Argentina
Most people would probably associate Argentina with football as opposed to rugby, but actually Argentina is one of the only South American countries with an internationally renowned rugby team. If you want to catch an international match on screen in the capital, these are the places you should head to.
1. Sullivan’s
Bar, Argentina
No capital city would be complete without a trusty Irish bar, and Sullivan’s is Palermo’s answer to the famed Temple Bar in Dublin. A typical Irish bar with all the trappings of boozing, carousing and a good old time, Sullivan’s is one of the best places in the city to watch international rugby matches. Given Ireland’s rugby prowess, it’s perhaps no surprise that Sullivan’s draws sports fans in their droves when a big rugby match is on, to down beers in front of the big screen.
2. The Gibraltar
Bar, Pub, British
3. Chicken Bros
Bar, American
5. 70 30
Bar, Argentina
6. Dubliners
Bar, Argentina
7. Locos x el Futbol
Bar, Argentina
One of the original and best Buenos Aires sports bars is Locos x el Futbol, or LXF as it’s known locally. Located in Recoleta, this is typically a football joint, but you might get lucky in rugby season and be able to catch an international game if the stakes are high enough. Get in early for their 2-for-1 happy hour.
