FancyFree

Fancy Free is a welcoming Fort Greene/Clinton Hill-area neighborhood bar that doubles as a true matchday home for soccer fans in Brooklyn. With Sound On and a strong local crowd, it delivers a lively but approachable atmosphere that feels more like a supporters’ local than a generic sports bar — especially when the big games are on. The bar regularly shows top competitions including the English Premier League, UEFA Champions League, and the German Bundesliga. Fancy Free is set up for U.S. audiences who follow Europe closely, with the ability to open for matches in the morning hours — ideal for those high-stakes European nights that land early in New York and require a committed matchday wake-up. Known in particular for its Arsenal supporters community, Fancy Free brings the energy: expect a tight-knit group, plenty of chanting, and a post-match tradition that often includes a group photo after Arsenal matches. Whether you’re a dedicated supporter or just want a bar where everyone is actually locked into the game, Fancy Free is a dependable Brooklyn spot for soccer.
