Champions League nights

I've got some really good memories of watching classic European matches out in Chiswick. Most of my experiences have come in the Barley Mow, which for me is the best place to watch live sport in  Chiswick down to the atmosphere. Arsenal and Chelsea fans can sometimes get a little put out because Liverpool and Man Utd seem to take precedence over their London rivals when it comes to the screening . For example both legs of the Chelsea Vs Juventus tie were screened in the back room with Liverpool's games occupying the large projector screen at the front and the Plasma towards the rear of the bar.  People protest but it comes down to demand, despite the West London setting there are simply more Liverpool and Man Utd fans in Chiswick.

Having said all that I watched the Liverpool and Chelsea games in Potion last night (it's quite a new bar so if you haven't been there yet it's worth checking out) and the atmosphere was pretty good, I'd say it was about two thirds full. If you have a 'VIP' card you can get bottles of Becks for £2 and cocktails for £3.60 7 days a week. And it goes without saying that the George is also a good pub to watch sport and I think they have more of a London bias.
