Hi guys

I'm quite new to Johannesburg and was wondering where there are good bars or clubs to watch the rugby or football? I've been to Cescos in Honeydew, which is good but was wondering where else I can watch some sport with good atmosphere?

Thanks

Welcome to myBB

Ah good ol' cesco's :) its one of the better ones, just a bit dead sometimes :p
I must say theres not many sports bars round that area. Theres always o'hagans, keg (rock cottage) but they pretty average for sport watching.
Theres Gatsby's in boskruin ... but it can be a dive sometimes.
Theres also Kerry piper in town square (opposite trade center).

You can give those a try but i must say cesco's is probably the best out of what ive just mentioned.

Wow i cant think of any more...
Hopefully you can find a nice place and let us know :)

Also depending on which team you support check if you can find a spot with the local supporters club for the big games. I am sure the Stormers and Sharks supporters have a usual hangout.

If you are Cheetahs fan. then I am soooo sorry.

Look for the dros as well, always pumping on rugga day :).

Super 14 i find is not heavily supported in jhb as the lions pretty much suck lol, but tri nations wow the pubs get busy.

Good bars to watch sport

I've been to the Keg in Sunninghill. It gets packed for a bar and the drinks queue is a nightmare but the atmosphere is good. I'll have a look at a few of the bars you guys suggested. I'm an Arsenal and Stormers fan, so looking to watch those games as much as possible
