Rileys Sports Bar Solihull
Tucked away on Hobs Moat Road in Solihull, Rileys Sports Bar Solihull isn't just your average sports pub-it's a full-on experience for fans of the game, lovers of beer, and anyone who enjoys a buzzing, energetic vibe. Whether you're chasing the thrill of live football, darts competitions, or simply a night out with the crew, this spot knows how to deliver.
Right from the entrance, you know what you're in for. The atmosphere at Rileys leans into its sporty identity-with large flat-screens, pool tables, bar games, and friendly banter filling the space. The seating is laid-back and functional, designed for groups as much as for solo fans just looking to catch the next kick-off or corner. You’ll find the venue especially vibrant during Premier League matches or boxing nights. The crowd is passionate, the pints are flowing, and the energy is unmatched.
Speaking of pints-let’s talk drinks. Rileys Sports Bar Solihull has carved a name for itself in the local scene thanks to its great beer selection. Whether you're partial to a classic lager or prefer something with more craft character, the taps won’t disappoint. You'll find popular choices that pair perfectly with game nights or casual hangouts, from chilled beer to a good old-fashioned cola for the designated drivers or those going booze-free.
In terms of food, Rileys keeps it honest. It’s all about pub-style bites that go hand in hand with the atmosphere. You’re not here for fine dining-you’re here to get a plate of something warm and filling while you shout at the screen with your mates. Think burgers, fries, nachos, and shareable platters. It's casual comfort food, the kind that works whether you're mid-tournament or just hanging out after work.
What sets this bar apart from other local watering holes is the game-focused vibe. It's not just a place to watch the sport-it's a place to live it. From darts to pool tables and more, you're as much a part of the action as the players on the screen. That’s a rare find in Solihull, where many bars might screen the match but few bring this level of interactive spirit.
For those who love a good deal, happy-hour drinks are a definite draw. It’s a solid incentive to swing by a bit earlier, settle in with your drink of choice, and gear up for whatever’s showing later in the night. And yes, they also serve wine, spirits, and other alcohol options if beer isn’t your thing.
One thing to note is accessibility-there’s no wheelchair-accessible entrance, so if mobility is a concern, it's worth calling ahead. It’s a shame given the otherwise inclusive and welcoming feel of the venue, and something to keep in mind when planning a group visit.
Unlike takeaway-oriented bars or pubs that double as eateries, Rileys Solihull is all about the dine-in experience. You’re not just grabbing a bite and heading home-you're staying, you're playing, you're watching, you're cheering. It’s an ideal spot for social evenings where the vibe builds as the matches heat up.
There’s no delivery service, no curbside gimmicks. Just solid, reliable, in-person vibes with a community of like-minded people. You’ll meet regulars, weekend warriors, and the occasional first-timer who leaves wondering why they didn’t come sooner.
If your idea of a perfect night involves big screens, icy pints, bar games, and good food in a lively setting, Rileys Sports Bar Solihull is the kind of place that hits the sweet spot. The combination of a well-stocked bar, interactive entertainment, and sports-driven energy gives it a unique edge that’s hard to replicate elsewhere in town.

Hi, all at Riley's!!. The staff was amazing last night, they was so busy. And catered for everybody. Well done all . We needed to change tables last night to a match table 21 / we love playing American pool. Which had been re-clothed. And our game is so much better now, on this table. We like playing on table 13, but the cloth as worn out now, and would be grateful if you could renewed it. Hopefully in the future it can be great, thank you. Have a good Easter all, and see you next week . Thank you for your great service!!.
Absolutely amazing establishment. Tegan and Lewis were brilliant two of the most loveliest staff we’ve met. We hope Riley’s keeps these two for years to come as they’re valuable assets to the business and would definetly recommend anyone to come here just for the establishment and both of these two working here! Thank you to the both of them!
Amber and Tegan are brilliant, always attentive and on hand to make your experience better. Know how to pour a pint and made our experience one to remember. Great banter too, which we appreciate a lot because most bar staff are boring/depressed and look like they don’t wanna be there. Will definitely come here again!! 100% recommend.
Awesome time in Riley’s, staff was really nice. Pool house was clean and well setup. and special mention to a member staff called Lewis for a pleasant chat. Would highly recommend
Great place for fun game activities, ample space, live sports streaming and lovely food and drinks.
