I agree with this Houston area contributor that two other great spots to watch soccer in Houston is Lucky's Pub and Big John's Sports Bar and Grill.
Neighborhood joints are among my favorites, so I enjoy watching soccer at places like Tobin's, or Mike's Ultimate Sports Bar and Grill.

These sound good. Thanks.
While we get getter viewing on our nice home TVs, it is fun to go out and watch with the crowd for those special games. Cheers!
Great Topic! You know your Houston!
There's this sports bar in Tomball bout south east of Houston that I've gone to many times. I think It's a chain of Woodrows (can't reember, it's been so long). Anyway, they had a slogan that is just hilarious, "If it were any bigger it would be illegal." I have a t-shirt somewhere. If I find it, I will post it for you.
