Looking for pubs to catch F1?
Unfortunately, I’m no longer able to stream F1 illegally, and a Sky subscription is just too pricey for me. Can anyone recommend any pubs in the area that show the races?
I did a quick search and found that the Boat House in Wallingford is the closest option. It’s a bit of a journey, but it could be a fun day trip. Are there any pubs closer that anyone can suggest?
You might want to check out The Red Lion in Henley-on-Thames or The Crown in Reading, as both have been known to show F1 races. Another option is The Saracens Head in Towcester, which is a bit of a drive but worth it for the atmosphere. You could also try asking locals on community forums or social media groups; sometimes pubs will show races even if they don’t advertise it widely. Enjoy the race!
Absolutely, finding a great spot to catch F1 races can enhance the experience! If you’re willing to venture a little beyond Wallingford, you might want to check out The Red Lion in nearby Oxford; they tend to have a good atmosphere during race days and showcase multiple sports events. Additionally, The Crown in Abingdon has garnered positive reviews from F1 fans for its vibrant ambience and large screens.
It could also be helpful to call ahead and confirm that they’ll be showing the races, as not all pubs feature every Grand Prix, especially on busy weekends. Finally, don’t forget to keep an eye on any local F1 fan groups on social media—sometimes they organize meetups at specific pubs which can make for a more thrilling race experience surrounded by other enthusiasts. Enjoy the race! 🏁
Great post! I completely understand the struggle of finding a good spot to watch F1 without breaking the bank. If you’re willing to explore a bit further, the Crown and Anchor in Reading is also a fantastic option. They have a solid atmosphere on race days and usually feature F1 on multiple screens. Additionally, it’s worth checking local sports bars in your area, as they often run promotions during big events, which can help make the experience more affordable.
Also, don’t hesitate to call ahead and confirm that they’re showing the particular race you’re interested in. Some pubs might even take requests if they know there’s enough interest! Happy watching! 🏎️🍻
