Best Sports Bars in Hua Hin:
Right then, let’s get started shall we, here are the six best places in town to watch live sport.
1. Father Teds – My go-to sports pub
Father Ted’s is a well-equipped sports pub with loads of screens dotted around the place. It’s perfect for English football fans but with so many TVs they’re able to show anything you want. As it should be with any decent sports bar, if they’re not showing what you want to see just ask and they’ll do their best to accommodate you.
They’re known for their quality Western food, offering favourites like Sunday roasts, club sandwiches, Irish stew, and a hearty Irish breakfast. Their Guinness is one of the best I’ve had anywhere in Thailand, along with an excellent selection of draught beers.
Upstairs, they’ve got a pool table and dart board for some friendly competition while waiting for kick-off. And they’ve often got live music adding to the lively vibe. Unsurprisingly whether it’s a big match day or not this place is usually busy, creating a great atmosphere. The staff are super friendly too making it one of the best, if not the best place to watch sport here.

2. Wild Hawks Sportsbar – Bring your own food
Wild Hawks have four big screens meaning the sport you want will likely be on one of them. They show everything from the English Premier League to Aussie sports, big boxing and UFC fights and all Formula 1 races.
They’ve got ice-cold beers and small ones only cost 55 baht. And you can even play a game of pool while you wait for your sport to start.
There’s no food menu in the bar, or at least there wasn’t when I was last there, but you’re welcome to order from nearby restaurants, which I like because you’ve more choice of what you can eat.
Everyone who works there is super friendly and when the game is on there’s always a great atmosphere, but if it’s a big game make sure to get there early because it can get busy.
