Rough & Tumble Pub

The first place in the world purpose-built to show women’s and men’s sports equally and are home to many a USWNT player. Rough & Tumble is a Ballard neighborhood favorite that pairs a relaxed, modern bar-and-kitchen feel with a strong reputation for showing live sports — especially soccer. With a welcoming atmosphere, good food and drinks, and plenty of screens, it’s a dependable spot for Seattle fans who want to watch the game in a comfortable setting that still feels social and game-day ready. The venue regularly shows major soccer competitions including the English Premier League, UEFA Champions League, and international fixtures, alongside a full slate of American sports. It’s a great fit for West Coast supporters following Europe, with the ability to accommodate morning kickoffs when high-stakes “European nights” land early in Seattle. Big matches are easy to follow here, with engaged fans and sound typically on for marquee fixtures. Combining reliable match coverage with a friendly neighborhood vibe, Rough & Tumble works well for casual fans, regulars, and supporters groups looking for a consistent home for watch parties. Whether it’s a weekend league slate, a midweek Champions League morning, or a major tournament match, it’s one of Seattle’s most comfortable places to catch soccer with a crowd.
