  Gothamist chimes in on "Where to Watch" in NYC
Check out Gothamist's advice here (including an interview they did with Clint Dempsey and Oguchi Onyewu.  Here's some excerpts from their list with some interesting choices bolded (also, they provide the link to Time Out NY's and Thrillist 's rec's:

Eight Mile Creek, 240 Mulberry St. - showing all the Australian games
Brendan's Bar and Grill, 42 W 35th St - all games on five screens, free admission
The Manchester Pub, 920 2nd Ave - all games
Fiddlesticks Pub, 56 Greenwich Ave - all games
Zum Schneider, 107 Ave C - all games, German games require a $15 ticket (sold out for the first game already). Tickets for the next game go on sale after each game.
Mercadito, 179 Avenue B - all games
Bohemian Hall, 29-19 24th Ave., Astoria - all games with bar and BBQ open
O'Neill's Irish Pub, 729 3rd Ave - all games, Irish breakfast served for the morning games
Nevada Smith's, 74 3rd Ave - it will surely be packed to the gills
The Red Lion, 151 Bleeker St
Iona, 1800 Grand St, Brooklyn
Floyd, NY, 131 Atlantic Ave., Brooklyn

And the answer to my "where to watch Trinidad" question?

Sugarcane Restaurant

Trinidad and Tobago's inclusion in the games means this fine pan-Caribbean restaurant will open its bar—though not its taps—at 10am to accommodate the fans. Stay for the shark sandwiches (and alcohol) at lunchtime.

238 Flatbush Ave between Bergen St and Sixth Ave, Park Slope (718-230-3954)


Trinidad & Tobago: Mangoville
187-30 Jamaica Ave, at Hollis, Queens; 718.468.4100
The official home of T&T's American boosters -- the Cup's most optimistic fans, as not since Cool Runnings has a Caribbean squad been given worse odds to win.
