Pubs in the Westbury-on-Trym area are building up for the World Cup
With football fever mounting and the first round matches only a few days away, here's a guide to what's happening where.
The Post Office Tavern at the top of Westbury Hill invites fans to watch every match starting from Friday, June 11.
A spokesman said: "With a brand new plasma screen TV winging its way to us just in time for the first game, free half time curry, hot dogs, burgers and roasters during all England matches and your chance to win instant prizes with our Who Wants To Be A Football Millionaire game, it would be silly not to come and support your country at the POT."
At the Eastfield Inn in Henleaze Road, which is under new management, they'll be screening every match inside the pub - on a 52in screen, a 32in and a projector screen.
The pub has a two-course special for £7.95 and is also planning to serve up hot dogs and burgers.
The Mouse in Waters Lane has three screens in the pub and will be putting one in the garden too while the White Lion in Passage Road will be showing the games in the bar, as will the Beehive in Wellington Hill West.
The Mill House in Shirehampton Road, Stoke Bishop, will be screening all the World Cup games in the pub and serving snacks such as pizza.
The Westbury Park Tavern in Northumbria Drive and the White Horse in High Street are also screening the games while the Foresters in Westbury Hill has a large TV screen too.
At the Cambridge Arms in Westbury Park, there are two screens inside the pub and a whopping 52inch screen in the garden on which to watch the action. For the bigger games, the pub is planning a barbecue.
Another venue is the bar of the University of Bristol's Coombe Dingle Sports Complex which is open to the public and boasts a big screen.
But throughout the World Cup the Victoria in Chock Lane will be a football-free zone, although staff say they won't stop customers talking about football if they want to!
Anywhere else rolling out a big screen for the matches? Let us know if you run a pub or sports club and are planning something special.
