Join Us Tuesday, April 1st at 6:30!
Free to Play!
Join us for Trivia Night every Tuesday at 6:30 for a fun-filled evening of great food, drinks, and friendly competition!
Trivia is free to play, and while reservations aren’t technically required, they are highly recommended as the best way to guarantee your spot since space is limited and trivia reservations tend to FILL UP.
Walk-ins are always welcome if space allows.
For reservations that cancel within 24 hours or don’t show up, a $5 per person charge will apply, but if we’re able to fill the spot with other reservations or walk-ins, we won’t charge. Apologies for having to introduce this cancellation policy, but in the past we turned away teams who wanted to play because we were fully booked, only to have a few large groups not show up.
Trivia starts at 6:30, but feel free to come in as early as 5:15 to take advantage of happy hour (ends at 6pm). Click below to book your team—we’d love to see you there! Make sure when booking you select the "Team Trivia" event and not "Dining Room."
