When a major match is on, everyone wants the same thing: a great view of the screen, a cold drink in hand, good food, and a lively atmosphere. What no one wants is pushing through crowds, waiting ages for service, or missing key moments because the pub is packed wall to wall. If you’re searching for a big match pub that delivers all the excitement without the chaos, you’ve just found your spot.
At The Bowling Green Pub, we are sure that game nights are supposed to be enjoyable, easy, and unforgettable. Upon entering, it is all about comfort, excellent service, and allowing you to have all the kicks, goals and celebrations the way they ought to be.
A Pub That Is Bigger and Comfort First
Big match pubs are not all the same. Others are noisy, crowded and pressurising. The Bowling Green Pub does things differently. Our comfortable interiors and large garden provide space to relax in and even enjoy the game. Whether you want the atmosphere of the bar or a more relaxed table with friends, you will find the right place here.
Since 1733, we have been a part of the Leicester story, and we are the second-oldest pub in the city. That history implies that we know the kind of big match pub locals desire: good vibes, fair prices, and a warm welcome at all times.
Every Game. Every goal. Live at Bowling Green
There is no possibility of missing one of the matches. We broadcast live sporting events on large screens, thus you can never miss the action. Whether it is football and rugby or big tournaments and local games, our setup will ensure that every seat is brought nearer to the moment.
You will also not be struggling to see a view or order something out of the crowd like in congested restaurants. Service is always friendly and smooth in our team, and you can concentrate on the game, not on the hassle.

More Than Just Live Sports
Game nights are popular here, and it is not the last thing that makes people love The Bowling Green Pub. We also do darts, pool, casino-style games, quizzes, themed events and local celebrations. It is a location where friends can catch up, tales are told and good times are natural.
We are the ever-living and classy vibes, which is why our events are as appropriate as match viewing. Whether it is customised service or attentive details, we assist in making any event a memory.
A Pub That Gives Back
We boast of not being another large-scale pub. We engage local student unions, have charity nights and sponsor community events. You are helping us when you go to the pub; you are not the one that goes through Leicester life.

One of the biggest problems with any big match pub is the wait. That’s why we make it easy to book a table in advance. Whether it’s a chilled night out, a birthday bash, or your regular seat for match night, we’ve got your spot ready.
Booking ahead means:
- No standing around hoping for space
- Faster service when you arrive

Great food, cold pints, and a relaxed atmosphere are always better when you know your table is waiting.
