Where to Watch – For the Atmosphere

Tried and tested, Yates Cheltenham and The Spectre are two of the best sports bars in the town and are sure to make you feel as though you’re amongst the live action in Germany with multiple screens and deals on food and drink. You just can’t beat the classics.

Where to watch – Somewhere Different

Why not try something a little different this year? Dunkerton’s Cider is the classic pub garden feel but with added extras.

Host to pop-up eateries and a number of organic ciders, the taproom bar is a great place to watch the Euros. Just down the road from Charlton Kings, either by short bus ride or taking advantage of their free parking, it’s undoubtedly not to missed.

Where to watch – No Stress
