Wings, halftime giveaways, big screen TVs — these bars and restaurants are offering fantastic watch parties on Sunday.
At the risk of stating the obvious: Super Bowl Sunday is this weekend, and if you’re not planning on throwing a winning party in your own home, your best bet is to head out to one of the many restaurants and bars around Boston that are showing the game. Some places are charging a cover or selling tickets, others are free to get in, but each one of them will have big screens aplenty (there’s nothing like watching the best Super Bowl commercials with a crowd), platters of wings, and most likely a cornhole game or two.
Here are all the can’t-miss watch parties to check out on Super Bowl Sunday. Attending a Super Bowl watch party is fun, but getting there can be stressful. Get a free quote online.
