    I think the pucan smoking area will be good to watch it in?

    Was in Monroe's yesterday for the Rocktoberfest launch. That big screen upstairs is impressive alright.

    The tv out there is unreal. Must be the new Ultra HD or something. Will more than likely be jammers tomorrow though.

    Anyone got recommendations for a good bar for a group of 10 to watch the FA Cup Final?
    Preferably a place that does food like platters / burgers etc but it's not a priority.

    Could be difficult to find a place that will be showing all the match, Connacht playing Glasgow at 18:30, FA Cup final starting at 17:30.

    Yep the Dail is the official supporters club bar.

    An Pucan also gets a good crowd of supporters before and after the match

    McGettigans on the square near the Liam Mellows statue is a decent place to watch a game and they do nice food and have a few lovely craft beers too. Plenty of tv's dotted around the place so there shouldn't be an issue if there are more than one televised sporting event on at the same time.

    Anyone who doesn't know where McGettigan's is already probably isn't going to know where Liam Mellows' statue is :D

    +1 for the Dáil Bar.

    I'm not a rugby fan but they are also the official pub sponsor of Galway United and everyone speaks highly of their treatment in there.

    Official supporters pub this season is Murty Rabbitte's I think.

    Any pub really.
    Oslo in Salthill has a very big screen.

    Screen is the Oslo is very poor quality, unless its been changed. OP try places geared towards sports like McGinns, McGettigans or Dew Drop.

    I think Dew Drop is the Arsenal supporters pub in Galway so it would be a good spot for atmosphere anyways. It can get a bit tight in there for big games though.

    Another vote for The Dew Drop.

    Downstairs in The Cellar is a great hidden gem, never seems to be too packed anytime I go in, although that's rarely for any big games. But there's screens everywhere.

    Thanks for the suggestions,McGinns looks good as does the Dew Drop,though being a Chelsea fan it might be a bit dubious lol
