Proper courtyard sports bar where you can actually watch the match without fighting for a seat, Borough Market's best-kept screening spot.

Head down to St Thomas Street and you'll find yourself in Vinegar Yard's courtyard, where the Courtyard Bar has quietly become the neighbourhood's go-to for watching football, rugby, and everything in between. It's the kind of place where locals genuinely congregate—no posturing, just people who want a decent pint and a clear view of the screen. The outdoor setup means you're not crammed into some dingy basement; there's actual air and atmosphere, especially when the weather's decent and the place fills up with the after-work crowd from Borough and London Bridge.
