Look, we’ll level with you—we’re not college football fans, or fans of football at all for that matter. But one thing we love is a big, city-uniting event, and a surefire way to get us there is if there’s food. On Monday, January 8, the Huskies will play the top-seeded University of Michigan in the CFP National Championship, and we’ve rounded up a list of bars and restaurants around town to watch the big game. If you didn’t have the funds or flexibility to get to Houston, head to one of these watch parties to cheer on the team with fellow Husky fans. Thirty-two years ago, UW beat Michigan to win the title—can we do it again? Washington has a 14-0 record this season, so we have high hopes. Go Dawgs!

Kickoff is at 4:30 pm PT.
