Whether you’re a diehard football fan or just enjoy spending time with friends and family on game day, there’s no better place to watch the big game than McCray’s in East Cobb. Not only do we have one of the best game-friendly pour houses in the area, but we also have plenty of space for you to host your own game-day party.
Whether you’re watching at our place or yours, we hope these tips help make your perfect game day experience stress-free!
Whether you’re going out to watch the game or hosting at home, it’s important to choose the right location. The perfect game day is dependent on your ideal location. If you’re hosting at home, choose a spot that’s comfortable for everyone and has good sightlines to the TV. If you're hosting a fantasy football party, set up a TV in another room so those not interested in the game can still socialize and have fun.
If you’re going out, make sure to find a place that has plenty of TVs so you won’t miss a minute of the action or rent a private party room for the fantasy footballers. A tavern like McCray’s has a comfortable atmosphere and loads of televisions with 360° views of sports at all times so you won’t miss a moment!
Nothing ruins a good game like being hungry or thirsty. Before the big day, make sure to have plenty of food and drink options on hand. If you’re hosting at home, get creative with your menu and have some fun with it! Serve up some easy-to-eat finger foods and make sure to have enough beer, soda, and water to keep everyone hydrated. If you’re going out, most sports bars will have great game day food and drink specials. After all, a game is better with a beer or craft cocktail in hand!
The perfect game day menu is not a one-size-fits-all. Consider exploring tasty small plate options, seasonal entrees, unique burgers, fresh salads, or an assortment of southern comfort foods to round out the perfect game day.
In Georgia, the weather can change at the drop of a hat. Whether you’re going out or staying in, it’s important to be prepared for any weather changes that might occur. If you’re watching the game at a sports bar like McCray’s, we have both indoor and outdoor seating so you can stay comfortable no matter what the weather is doing. If you’re hosting at home, make sure to have blankets on hand in case it gets chilly, and keep an eye on the forecast in case of rain.
But don’t let the weather ruin your plans! If it does start to rain you can move the party indoors or to a tavern in East Cobb.
Remember, game day is supposed to be enjoyable so try not to stress about everything being perfect. As long as you have good company and plenty of food and drink, you’re sure to have a great time!
