App Developer Offers World Cup Pub Recommendations

Not everyone is heading over to South Africa just to watch the World Cup –as fun as that would be, there is another long honored tradition when it comes to watching football: see it with your best mates while drinking a mug of your favorite tap.

While one would think that most pubs would be showing the big matches on the screen, it still helps knowing which pubs are the best places to go to. Nokia’s Ovi store has an interesting app to help users out: the Footy Pubs 2010 app will bring people to the best places to be.

With details for both drinks and food served as well as viewing options for each location, the app provides users with the ultimate local pub directory –even if it is just for the duration of the World Cup –here are some of the recommended pubs from the Nokia app.

The Cityhouse at Bishopsgate, London is one such recommended pub, with full table service, all day menu availability, bar meals and the most delectable platter choices, this is a great place to hang out in for catching all the action without having to leave the comfort of your seat. Of course, the place is expected to get jam packed soon so interested folks better get a reservation as early as possible.

For a more up close and personal experience with your friends (or simply because nobody wants to be hosting and cleaning up afterwards), then getting a pub that offers private viewing rooms might be right up your alley. Soho’s Meza brings to you a massive 61 inch plasma TV in a private viewing room.

On the other hand, if cheering along with the rest of the patrons is your thing (and it certainly is fun), then you could consider the Loop Bar. It is right along Oxford Street and it gives you a choice of viewing preference from the many wide screen TVs on the bar. They also offer packages for groups so it would best if you bring your drinking buddies along.
