Where to Watch UCLA Football in Westwood Village

Are you ready for some football? If you don't already have a seat booked on your favorite couch, you should consider coming to Westwood Village to eat, drink, and watch UCLA Bruins games all season long.  

While there are plenty of bars and restaurants that will have their TVs on and airing the game, a few Westwood Village-area places have specials to add some cheer to the day. Here are some great suggestions:

Not far from the UCLA campus in Westwood, this bar is the ultimate Bruins fan spot. The bar changed its name from Maloney’s years ago, but the change hasn’t taken in some circles, so it’s common to hear it referred to as both.
