The famous third half is particularly important to football fans, so there should be plenty of establishments around the stadium.

But which Bundesliga stadium has the most pubs and most restaurants in the immediate vicinity? We at Wettfreunde have taken a closer look.

With the help of Google Maps, we counted the number of gastronomic establishments within a radius of 2 kilometers and presented them in a table.

This, and probably the only, table is headed by St Pauli: in the immediate vicinity of the Millerntor Stadium, there are 116 bars and 58 restaurants. This is clearly the highest density of gastronomic facilities in the 1st Bundesliga.

No wonder, because the stadium is located in the lively St. Pauli district and very close to the Reeperbahn, so there are plenty of options for a nightcap after the game.
