Who we are

O'Connell St is an Irish pub and sports bar at Calle de Espoz y Mina, 7, 28012 Madrid, in the centre of Madrid. Puerta del Sol is a short walk away. You will know the building by its red facade with gold O'CONNELL ST. lettering above the door.

Inside there is a long wooden bar with beer taps, barrel seating, tables under wall TVs and stairs between floors. The crowd is a mix of people from Madrid, students and visitors from all over.

European football at Sol

Football is the heart of the place. We show the Premier League, the UEFA Champions League and LaLiga on the screens when the screening is confirmed. On big European nights it's an Irish pub near Sol to meet up before the match, and to watch it live.

English-speaking match talk at an independent Irish pub off Sol — not a student-bar script: English football talk at this door. Other sport goes on too when it is shown: American football, NBA, rugby, Formula 1 and tennis. Every confirmed match is listed on What's On for the next 7 days, always in Madrid time. If a game is not there yet, ask at the bar.

A typical week: the Premier League plays mostly on Saturdays and Sundays, from early afternoon Madrid time. Champions League nights are Tuesdays and Wednesdays, with evening kick-offs. LaLiga spreads its games across the weekend, from lunchtime to late evening. When matches overlap, What's On shows which ones are confirmed for the pub, and the listing is rebuilt every morning so it follows the latest confirmed schedule.
