When in need of pubs showing the World Cup 2026 in Essex, Original Plough Chelmsford comes through with its multiple screens, terrace space for a breather at half-time and multiple screens. Better yet, there's katsu burgers and more to munch while watching.

While you may know Mecca better for its stellar bingo games, did you know that some of their venues also boast Sky Sports and relaxed lounges for watching the World Cup? Just head to the Harlow, Dagenham or Romford branches to catch the games.
