The dust has finally settled on last autumn’s World Cup and rugby fans across the country are gearing up for this year’s Six Nations Championship.
The annual rugby festival kicks off in Marseille on Friday February 2 when holders Ireland travel to 2023 runners-up France.
The following day, England kick off with a trip to Rome to face Italy, before Wales welcome Scotland to Cardiff to round off week one.
Three of London’s best pubs for rugby fans – The Globe, The Maple Leaf and The North London Tavern – will each be showing every single match in this year’s Six Nations, giving you the best seat in the house.
Pub-goers will be able to enjoy a limited edition beer, Scrumdown, created by Greene King to celebrate the big tournament in selected pubs. The 4.1% fresh golden ale has tropical and citrus notes and is an easy drinking and refreshing cask ale. Made with classic English hops, this is the perfect pint to enjoy during the games.
In addition, each pub has an extensive drinks menu with Guinness available on tap, plus a range of premium beers, cocktails, wines, spirits and more.
So, immerse yourself in the magical matchday atmosphere and get yourself primed for the action by booking your table in advance.
The Globe, Marylebone
The drink selection is fantastic, from draft and craft beer to cider, wine and spirits, while food to suit all tastes and preferences is served until 10pm (9pm Sundays).

The Maple Leaf, Covent Garden
Tucked away on Maiden Lane in WC2E, The Maple Leaf has been a little piece of Canada in central London since 1986. Pop in for ice-cold bottles of Molson and Moosehead plus Sleeman Original and Sleeman Honey Brown, and an extensive menu that includes six different varieties of the Canadian classic, poutine.
You can watch every match in the Six Nations here on several big screens, as well as popular North American sports such as (ice) hockey, American football and baseball.
Expect a warm Canadian welcome!

The North London Tavern, Kilburn
Recently renovated, The North London Tavern has been a staple on Kilburn High Road for many years, and it’s no surprise to learn that it continues to be one of the most popular pubs in the area.
Order your drinks in the magnificent horseshoe bar and then take a seat to enjoy the live action on the big screens from every Six Nations match.
While you’re there, take a look at the menu – with a mouth-watering range of pub classics, burgers, small plates and sharing plates until 10pm every night (9.30pm on Sundays), there’s no reason to go anywhere else.
