Bills Bar near Santa Cruz?

Recommended Posts

I don't know my Cali geography well enough to suggest a close one but if you select California in the drop down, it will give you a list of active places in the state.

I also saw this quoted in a Reddit

"South Bay Bills Backers get together at the Britannia Arms on DeAnza Blvd in San Jose. "

Anyone know a good place around Santa Cruz to catch the Miami game today?

 

Thanks!

 

I've been to the Bills Backers Bar in San Francisco at the Northstar Cafe.  They had a great crowd when I was there - 100+.  

 

I've also been to the Bills Backers Bar in San Jose at the Brittania Arms.  The crowd was much smaller.  Weirdly -to me - it's at a British style pub (what do the Bills have to do with England?).  My wife wasn't a fan of the food.

 

I've driven by the Bills Backers Bar in Monterey at Bulldog Sports Pub but have never attended game day there.

 

San Jose is closes to Santa Cruz - just a short trip over the Santa Cruz Mountains.  But Monterey isn't far  either and a prettier drive.  

 

All three Bills Backers Clubs I've mentioned have FB pages for more info.  

 

Good luck!

Firebaugh is a lot farther than 90 minutes away! The San Jose  Bills Backers are over the hill  in San Jose.  It's 32 miles as the crow flies. Route 17 is the highway.  It is two lanes each way  and the  speed limit is about 45 mph max.Being Sunday morn traffic shouldn't be a problem. You have to go over the 1300 ft tall summit. Don't speed as all the marks on the Jersey barriers  driving to SJ attest.

Edit after the post above was seen: The Britania  Arms closed a couple of years ago. I used to live there and do't know the name of the bar they meet at now.

I didn't know the Brittania Arms closed.  I was there 2 seasons ago.  Now that the San Jose Bills Backers have moved, I may have to revisit with the group at the new location.  

 

From Facebook...

 

Founded in 1989 and roaming around the South Bay at various bars and picking up the moniker South Bay Bills Backers in the mid 90's. The South Bay Bills Backers are located in Campbell, CA and the group gets together for every Bills game. We meet up at Kirk's Steakburgers located at:

2509 S Bascom Ave

Campbell, CA 95008

No. You can go to The Bulldog in Monterey, nice spot and a great group of fans.

 

You can join me at The Hook in San Jose/Campbell, or you can go to Kirk's Burgers in Campbell.
