Hooligans Sports Bar

Hooligans occupies central Billings on North 28th Street, between Montana Avenue and the Broadway blocks. VisitBillings describes downtown as a district of shops, restaurants and culture, quite different from the West End’s retail centers and broad roads. The pub advertises a large screen and broadcasts NFL, NBA, NHL and MLB; it also lists college sports and local events. Its advantage for a playoff night or a Montana team is a downtown setting and a pub identity rather than a giant entertainment complex.

The menu blends Irish-American cooking with bar food: Scotch eggs, fish and chips, poutine with Jameson gravy, burgers, pizza and wings, plus brunch and drinks. Menus can change seasonally; the official site publishes its current selections, extended hours, takeout and venue events. Visitors mention wings, waffle fries and an informal atmosphere, while also describing livelier nights with music, so a midday meal and a major broadcast can feel quite different in the same room.

Recent Google comments often highlight the sports atmosphere, food selection and friendly service on particular shifts. Service and pacing are not described uniformly, especially when the bar is busy, so order with time to spare and confirm that your matchup will be on the main screen. The official website links Facebook and Instagram for schedule changes, events and promotions; use the business’s own channels for current menu and reservation information.

Hooligans and The Den show two different sides of Billings. The first is downtown; The Den is in the West End near 54th Street and Grand Avenue and advertises 22 televisions, a patio, casino area and indoor golf next door. They are not stops for a quick walk between bars: choose based on where your evening begins and check the trip before game time. For an Irish-American pub in the center with several major leagues on screen, Hooligans is the clearest fit.
