Thanks to our readers and sleep deprivation, this list continues to grow. However, after Part I and Part II, this Part III will be the last installment of the Where To Watch trilogy. Like food, fandom, and found Men’s World Cup watch locations, variety is the spice of life.

All the games during business hours — busier for Argentina games
Check their facebook.
If you love Argentinian fútbol and food, check out DelSur Empanadas in the southwest suburbs. Thunderwall President Daniel Ditmanson and I journeyed to Minnetonka for Netherlands versus Argentina. “The atmosphere is electric, the food fantastic!” said Daniel.

Owner Diego Montero works the kitchen while Owner Nico Nikolov handles the customer orders. They both donned Argentina jerseys and would occasionally blast their blue and white vuvuzelas. They offer ten different empanadas, including vegetarian and vegan options.
Nico added, “When there’s football games on the TV, Choripan and Quilmes [Argentinian Lager] go hand in hand, doesn’t get any better than that!” The Choripan sandwich comes with a savory butterflied Argentinian chorizo link and chimichurri mayo. It was delicious!

If you want a spacious area to play board games, drink a delicious Thätz Bier Kölsch, Pull Tabs Hazy Pale Ale, or Holes Donut Milk Stout, check out BlackStack Brewing. For the hoptastic, they have more NE IPAs, DIPAs, TIPAs, and one QIPA than I can justify detailing for a platform called Sota Soccer, not Sota Taproom.
Thanks to all the reader suggestions and everyone I interviewed. Stay tuned to Sota Soccer for all your local Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Midwest soccer coverage.
