My boss has asked me whether I know of any bars in Itaewon that he could take his 11 year old son to watch the England game tonight (they are English). I couldn't think of any off the top of my head so does anyone have any suggestions?

Thank you

Not sure about Itaewon, but don't TGIF and Bennigan's have TVs? Or just go to a chicken hof.

I would have thought they will be closed by 11pm.
I'm not sure any bar will be child-friendly at 11pm on a World Cup night when England are playing. I don't know which bars are going to show the England game, but Amigos and Geckos Garden are relatively family friendly.

Yes, SBS will show one game live and SBS Sports the other live.

When England fail to qualify for the next round, there will be no safe place in Itaewon. English smashing things in anger and American smashing things in celebration. Canadians will just smash things because smashing things is fun.

It's more for Canadians, in the words of Tucker Carlson, that they urgently feel the need to be acknowledged, good or bad, hahahaha.

Eighty percent of Itaewon bars are the same way.

Dad's should not bring their 11 year old kids to a bar. Ever. Tell your boss he is an a-hole.
