15 New Jersey Sports Bars Locals Swear By for Football Sundays

When I first moved to Jersey, my wife and I would always just watch football at home, and although that's a great way to watch the game because what seat is comfier than your own couch, there's something fun about being surrounded by other fans, cheering your team on to victory. Granted, I'm a Seahawks fan (and not just because they won the Big Game last year; I've been a fan for most of my life), and my wife is an Eagles fan... so not many people in Jersey are cheering alongside us.

Sawmill In Seaside Heights, NJ, Is A Great Spot For Football Lovers

Our first experience with football on Sundays in Jersey was at the Sawmill. We were blown away by being able to see every game on the TVs, surrounded by more football fans than we could count, plus Sawmill does a pig roast every Sunday that gets served up at halftime, and it's just a ton of fun.

Since moving to Ocean Gate, we've become big fans of catching the game at the Anchor Inn; it's a little more laid-back, the bartenders are fun to chat with while you watch the game, and the beer is cold and reasonably priced.
