The 12 best sports bars on Tenerife are clustered in the south of the island, in Playa de las Américas, Los Cristianos and Costa Adeje. Harry’s Bar in Playa de las Américas shows English and Spanish league matches, whilst Sport Bar Cervecería does the same in Costa Adeje. Yordy’s Sports Bar and McGregors Sports Bar are both located in Arona. The steady stream of holidaymakers keeps these venues busy even on weekdays. Live broadcasts run late into the night, complemented by international beers and screens above the bar.
Sports bars on Tenerife: prices and opening hours
Bars in the south open from early afternoon and cater to English- and German-speaking guests. A beer costs between 3 and 6 euros, whilst cocktails start at around 8 euros. Yolo Sports Bar runs two venues: one in Los Cristianos and one in Playa de las Américas. Most venues accept card payments, though a few long-established bars prefer cash. On Champions League match nights and boxing nights, Palms Sports Bar in Costa Adeje and Taylor’s Cocktail Bar in Los Cristianos fill up quickly.
Tips for your visit
Football from English and Spanish leagues is shown in many of the 480 bars along the coast, with screens hanging above the bar. In the tourist centres, the owners time the kick-offs to coincide with Central European broadcast schedules. The George in Puerto de Santiago calls itself the Family Sports Bar and Restaurant and, as well as draught beer, serves plates of papas arrugadas and mojo.
In the evening, guests from various countries gather in front of a screen. The Restaurante Colonial in Fañabé combines the broadcast with a menu that could just as easily be found in one of the 491 cafés. At the outdoor tables, the commentators‘ voices can be heard all the way into the side streets.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do sports bars in Tenerife cost on average?
A beer in sports bars on Tenerife usually costs between 2 and 4 euros, whilst light meals such as burgers or tapas cost between 8 and 15 euros. In the tourist centres in the south, such as Costa Adeje and Playa de las Américas, prices are higher than in the neighbourhoods of Santa Cruz de Tenerife.
Are sports bars in Tenerife suitable for families with children?
Some of the 480 bars in Tenerife cater to an adult crowd in the evenings, but during the day, venues offering food are certainly family-friendly. The George in Puerto de Santiago has ‚Family‘ in its name and also features a restaurant. Venues with a terrace and a regular menu are better suited than pure sports bars, which tend to be very busy and noisy during match broadcasts.
Can you get by speaking German in restaurants on Tenerife?
In the tourist areas in the south, such as Playa de las Américas and Costa Adeje, German speakers will get by just fine in many of the 1,099 restaurants. In the north and in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Spanish or English will be more helpful, as German is spoken less frequently there.
