Its two published Sunday closing times disagree, 10:00 PM ET on Google and 11:00 PM ET on the website, and neither one reaches the end of an 8:20 PM ET Sunday night game. Kettle of Fish, The Village Tavern and Down the Hatch all publish a 4:00 AM close.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>That is the whole page in five sentences, and the rest of it is the evidence. Two things make it unusual to watch NFL football in the West Village rather than anywhere else in Manhattan. The first is that this is a late neighborhood: three bars inside a six minute walk of our door publish a 4:00 AM closing time, which is later than almost anything in Brooklyn. The second is that our own two published sources do not agree with each other, so on a Monday or Thursday night the honest answer is that you should call before you commit.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tbg-key\">\n<p><strong>The one number that decides your night.<\/strong> An NFL game takes a little over three hours from kickoff to final whistle in a normal week. Subtract that from a bar&#8217;s published closing time and you know whether you are watching the end of the game or watching the staff stack chairs. Every table below does that subtraction for you, in Eastern Time, with the source and the date it was read.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"windows\">Where to watch NFL football in the West Village, window by window<\/h2>\n<p>Here is what happens when you set the league&#8217;s recurring kickoff windows against the two closing times The Beer Garage publishes for the West Village. Google and the website footer have not agreed for some time, so both are printed rather than one being quietly picked.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tbg-scroll\">\n<table>\n<caption>NFL kickoff windows against the two published closing times for The Beer Garage at 118 Christopher Street. Kickoff windows from the NFL&#8217;s official 2026 schedule; closing times from the location&#8217;s Google Business Profile and the footer of beergarageny.com, both read September 16, 2026. All times Eastern. The minutes column is arithmetic on published times, not a claim about how long a game lasts. Use it to decide where to watch NFL football in the West Village by window.<\/caption>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>NFL window<\/th>\n<th>Kickoff ET<\/th>\n<th>Closes, per Google<\/th>\n<th>Closes, per the website<\/th>\n<th>Shortest gap after kickoff<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Sunday early<\/td>\n<td>1:00 PM<\/td>\n<td>10:00 PM<\/td>\n<td>11:00 PM<\/td>\n<td>540 minutes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Sunday late<\/td>\n<td>4:05 or 4:25 PM<\/td>\n<td>10:00 PM<\/td>\n<td>11:00 PM<\/td>\n<td>335 minutes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Sunday night<\/td>\n<td>8:20 PM<\/td>\n<td>10:00 PM<\/td>\n<td>11:00 PM<\/td>\n<td>100 minutes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Monday night<\/td>\n<td>8:15 PM<\/td>\n<td>12:00 AM<\/td>\n<td>11:00 PM<\/td>\n<td>165 minutes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Thursday night<\/td>\n<td>8:15 PM<\/td>\n<td>12:00 AM<\/td>\n<td>11:00 PM<\/td>\n<td>165 minutes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Sunday from London<\/td>\n<td>9:30 AM<\/td>\n<td>opens 12:00 PM<\/td>\n<td>opens 1:00 PM<\/td>\n<td>not open yet<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the bottom three rows again, because they are the reason this page exists. If you want to watch NFL football in the West Village on a Sunday afternoon, our room is open for all of it with hours to spare on either published source. If your game starts at 8:20 PM ET on a Sunday, 100 minutes is roughly halftime, and even the more generous website figure of 160 minutes runs out somewhere in the fourth quarter. A Monday or Thursday night game is the genuinely uncertain one: Google says the room goes to midnight, which covers the whole thing, and the website says 11:00 PM, which does not.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"tbg-fig\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beergarageny.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/IMG_2356-2-w1600.webp\" alt=\"The brick and hedge wall inside the sports bar where you can watch NFL football in the West Village, hung with a vintage car grille and headlights above the tables\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1200\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"aspect-ratio:4\/3\"><figcaption>The Christopher Street room where you can watch NFL football in the West Village.

Of the six neighboring bars you could watch NFL football in the West Village from, exactly two publish anything at all about screens, and only one of those, Triona&#8217;s West, publishes an actual number. We publish nothing, which is a gap on our side and not a secret. And Kettle of Fish, four minutes away on the same street, is the local answer for one specific fan: it publishes that Packers fans are always welcome and tells you to call for early opening times on Packers and Badgers game days. It serves no food, so people bring their own.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tbg-warn\">\n<p><strong>21+ with valid ID.<\/strong> Please drink responsibly.

A competitor eleven minutes away publishes fourteen.<br \/>\n<strong>Food during the game 8\/10.<\/strong> A full kitchen with wings at $14 and the burger at $18 as of September 2026, which two of the six bars above cannot match and one cannot offer at all.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Best for:<\/strong> the Sunday 1:00 PM ET and 4:25 PM ET windows, a Giants or Jets game, a group that wants to eat properly during the game, and anyone who wants to sit outside in the heated garden in October.<br \/>\n<strong>Skip if:<\/strong> your game is Sunday night, you need a guaranteed screen count, or you want to close the place down after a Monday night finish.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Possible downside.<\/strong> The room is a neighborhood bar, not a barn, so it fills on a big Sunday. Our two published closing times disagree with each other, which is our problem to fix and not yours to guess about.

Every Giants and Jets game in Weeks 7 to 9 kicks off at 1:00 PM ET on a Sunday: Giants at Texans and Dolphins at Jets on October 25, Raiders at Jets on November 1, when the Giants have a bye, and Giants at Eagles and Jets at Chiefs on November 8. Five straight local games in the one window this room covers completely, on both of its published closing times. If you follow either New York team, the calendar is on your side into November.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"london\">The 9:30 AM ET games from Europe<\/h2>\n<p>Two Sundays in Weeks 7 to 9 start with a game from Europe at 9:30 AM ET: Steelers at Saints in Saint-Denis on October 25 and Bengals at Falcons in Madrid on November 8. Nobody in this set of bars is open for kickoff. The earliest published Sunday opening among the seven rooms above is Reservoir at 11:00 AM ET, which is ninety minutes after the ball is in the air, and it is a sixteen minute walk from Christopher Street. The Beer Garage opens at 12:00 PM ET on Sunday according to Google and 1:00 PM ET according to the website footer.<\/p>\n<p>That is not a comfortable thing for a bar to publish about itself, but it is the useful thing. If you want to watch NFL football in the West Village at a London kickoff time, you are watching it at home or somewhere else entirely, and then you are walking over for the 1:00 PM ET window. No list of the best bars in the neighborhood will tell you that, because no list subtracts an opening time from a kickoff time.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"gluten-free\">Gluten-free and the West Village kitchen<\/h2>\n<p>This matters enough to say plainly in the middle of a football page, because getting it wrong ruins somebody&#8217;s night.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tbg-gf\">\n<p><strong>Location notice.<\/strong> The kitchen at The Beer Garage in the West Village, at 118 Christopher Street, is a standard kitchen. Its menu does not label any dish as gluten-free. The 100 per cent gluten-free kitchen is the Park Slope location in Brooklyn, at 148 5th Avenue. If you need a gluten-free kitchen for a game, go to <a href=\"\/sports-bar-with-fully-gluten-free-food-in-brooklyn\/\">Park Slope in Brooklyn<\/a>, not to Christopher Street.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The United States Food and Drug Administration defines gluten-free at under 20 parts per million in 21 CFR 101.91, and that definition is about food, not about a room, which is why this page names Park Slope rather than the brand. The West Village menu at 118 Christopher Street lists panko, brioche, hero rolls and flour tortillas, so treat that kitchen as a gluten kitchen. Beer is a separate matter again: most beer contains gluten wherever you drink it, including at the Park Slope bar whose food program is gluten-free. This page is not medical advice; if you have celiac disease, ask the staff directly and use your own judgment.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"what-to-eat\">What to eat during the game<\/h2>\n<p>Food is the honest advantage this room has over the three bars that stay open until 4:00 AM, and it is the main reason to watch NFL football in the West Village from a table rather than a stool. One of them serves no food at all. These prices come off the posted West Village menu and are current as of September 2026.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tbg-scroll\">\n<table>\n<caption>Game day food at the sports bar where you can watch NFL football in the West Village, from the posted West Village menu at 118 Christopher Street, as of September 2026.

That matters more than it sounds: search panels render kickoff times in the reader&#8217;s own timezone, which is how a Sunday afternoon game ends up looking like a Monday game to anybody outside the United States.<\/p>\n<p>Competitor hours, screen claims and food come from each bar&#8217;s own website, read on September 16, 2026, and nowhere else. Review sites and roundups were used to find which bars exist and were then dropped. Of the six neighboring bars, two publish anything about screens and one publishes a number, and four publish complete weekly hours.<\/p>\n<p>Walking times are Google Maps walking mode from 118 Christopher Street on September 16, 2026, one measurement each, rounded to the minute as Google gives them. Our own hours are printed from two sources because those two sources disagree, and our own menu prices come from the posted West Village menu as of September 2026.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"faq\">Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n<h3>Where can I watch the football game in NYC?<\/h3>\n<p>In the West Village, six bars within a sixteen minute walk of Christopher Street publish that they show sports, and three of them publish a 4:00 AM closing time. The Beer Garage at 118 Christopher Street covers both Sunday afternoon windows. For a Sunday night finish, Down the Hatch, The Village Tavern or Kettle of Fish are open later.<\/p>\n<h3>Where can I see the NFL games today?<\/h3>\n<p>Check the kickoff time first, then the closing time of the bar you were planning on. Sunday afternoon games at 1:00 PM and 4:25 PM ET are covered everywhere in this neighborhood. A Sunday night game at 8:20 PM ET is only covered by the bars that publish a 1:00 AM close or later, which in the West Village means four of the seven rooms on this page.<\/p>\n<h3>Does The Beer Garage in the West Village show every NFL game?<\/h3>\n<p>The bar does not publish a screen count, a sound policy or a Sunday Ticket claim, so this page will not claim one on its behalf. What it does publish is a full kitchen, a heated backyard garden and a beer list of 37 lines. Call 646-490-4301 and ask about a specific game before you travel for it.<\/p>\n<h3>What time does The Beer Garage in the West Village open on a Sunday?<\/h3>\n<p>Its Google Business Profile says 12:00 PM ET and the footer of its own website says 1:00 PM ET, both read on September 16, 2026. Either way the room is open for a 1:00 PM ET kickoff, but if you want a table before the game, call ahead rather than trusting one source over the other.<\/p>\n<h3>Which West Village bars are open when a Sunday night game ends?<\/h3>\n<p>On published hours read September 16, 2026: Kettle of Fish at 59 Christopher Street and Down the Hatch at 179 West 4th Street both to 4:00 AM, The Village Tavern at 46 Bedford Street to 4:00 AM, and Triona&#8217;s West at 237 Sullivan Street to 1:00 AM on Sundays. The Beer Garage closes at 10:00 PM or 11:00 PM ET depending on the source.<\/p>\n<h3>Is the food at the West Village location gluten-free?<\/h3>\n<p>No. The kitchen at 118 Christopher Street is a standard kitchen, and no item on its menu is marked gluten-free. The 100 per cent gluten-free kitchen is at the Park Slope location in Brooklyn, 148 5th Avenue, which is a different room in a different borough. Anyone who needs a gluten-free kitchen should go to Park Slope.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"verdict\">Final verdict<\/h2>\n<p>If you want to watch NFL football in the West Village and your game kicks off in daylight, come to 118 Christopher Street. Both of our published sources have the room open before the 1:00 PM ET whistle, the kitchen runs the whole way through, the garden out back is heated for October, and every Giants and Jets game from Week 7 to Week 9 sits in exactly that window, which is the cheapest way to watch NFL football in the West Village well.<\/p>\n<p>If your game kicks off at 8:20 PM ET on a Sunday, be honest with yourself and walk five or six minutes to The Village Tavern or Down the Hatch, both of which publish a 4:00 AM close. If it is a Monday or Thursday night game, call us first, because our own two published closing times do not agree and we would rather tell you on the phone than have you find out in the fourth quarter. That is the whole of it. A bar that only tells you the windows it wins is not telling you where to watch NFL football in the West Village, it is selling you a seat.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"sources\">Sources and references<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/schedules\/2026\/by-week\/week-7\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">NFL official schedule, Week 7<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/schedules\/2026\/by-week\/week-8\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Week 8<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/schedules\/2026\/by-week\/week-9\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Week 9<\/a>, read October 20, 2026.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fda.gov\/food\/nutrition-education-resources-materials\/gluten-and-food-labeling\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">United States Food and Drug Administration, gluten-free food labeling rule, 21 CFR 101.91<\/a>, cited here for the Park Slope kitchen claim.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mta.info\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Metropolitan Transportation Authority<\/a> for subway lines and station names.<\/li>\n<li>Bar hours, screen claims and food from each venue&#8217;s own website, read September 16, 2026: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kettleoffishnyc.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Kettle of Fish<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/thevillagetavern.nyc\/\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Village Tavern<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.downthehatchnyc.com\/hours-and-location\/\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Down the Hatch<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.houstonhallny.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Houston Hall<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/westtrionasnyc.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Triona&#8217;s West<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/reservoirny.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Reservoir<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>The Beer Garage hours from the location&#8217;s Google Business Profile and the footer of beergarageny.com, both read September 16, 2026.
