2nd Home Bar Report: Best New York City college football bars by team 2023

Looking for a bar in New York City to watch the 2023 College Football Playoff? Here's where to meet up with fans of Michigan, Washington, Texas and Alabama.

September 12, 2023

Welcome to the first ever 2nd Home Bar Report!

‍

In this annual series, we’ll give you the internet’s most comprehensive guide to team bars in major U.S. cities.

‍

College football fans in the New York City area will have plenty of options this year, as dozens of school’s have designated gameday bars where fans meet for watch parties. Virtually all of the Power 5 conference schools are represented, with some (Michigan, Penn State, etc.) having more than others (Vanderbilt, Oregon State).

‍

Most of these watch party locations are verified through the universities’ local alumni chapter, but there may be a few bars in here that aren’t recognized by the school.

‍

You can find more information about each bar on the 2nd Home Sports Map. And if you have a team bar we should know about, let us know via the Nominate Bar page.
