Best Detroit Lions bars across the US: Where to watch the 2024 NFC Championship

The Motor City is on cloud nine, but the Lions aren’t done yet.

The dream season led by Dan Campbell and a dynamic offense now takes a stop in the Bay, where they’ll face the biggest test of their playoff run yet: the San Francisco 49ers.

Detroit fans are as juiced as ever for the 2024 NFC Championship Game, so Lions bars across the country will undoubtedly be buzzing well before kickoff.

2nd Home Sports has compiled a list of the best Detroit Lions bars in cities across the U.S. These bars were identified using 2nd Home’s human verification process, which relies on visual evidence of a bar’s gameday presence.

Whether you’re an out-of-market fan or just traveling, here’s where you need to be for the NFC title game on Sunday (6:30 p.m. ET, Fox)
