DOYLESTOWN BOROUGH, PA — A Bucks County sports bar and pizzeria and bar has been nominated as one of the best soccer bars in the nation.
Villa Capri on West Court Street in Doylestown is one of 10 watering holes across the nation up for the title of “Great American Soccer Bar” in a contest organized by Men in Blazers, a soccer-centric website and podcast network.
In nominating Villa Capri, the Men in Blazers remarked that the bar had “Scenes powerful enough to make me shed denim clad tears.”

“We asked you to nominate your favorite soccer bars in a nationwide search, sponsored by our friends at Michelob ULTRA. Thousands of votes poured in from across the country and now we need your help in crowning the one true champion of America’s Best Soccer Bar,” says the Men in
Blazers.

The winning bar will be determined by bar patrons across the nation who can register their votes through the Men in Blazers weekly newsletter. The winning bar will get the bragging rights, plus Men in Blazers will make a visit to watch a game with fans and to raise a pint or two.

A unique setting where American fans have been able to come together and forge collective memories of our club’s greatest moments.”
