Review: Wednesday Night Trivia at Crossing

Review: Wednesday Night Trivia at Crossing
At a glance, trivia at Crossing Tavern in Lakeview seems like it was tailor-made for us. It is a KANSAS bar. They serve *skillet cookies*. They also serve Boulevard Unfiltered Wheat (my favorite) on tap. On Tap! It starts exactly at 8:00pm on the dot and ends at 9:30pm. Parking is super easy. Everything about... Read more »

Review: Wednesday Night Trivia at Temple Bar

Review: Wednesday Night Trivia at Temple Bar
If I told you to picture a bar, you’d probably envisionĀ Temple Bar in Lakeview. It doesn’t have the Bridgeportian character of Schaller’s Pump, the plush seating of Kroll’s, the hunting lodge feel of Will’s. Temple Bar is just a plain old bar. With kinda just plain old trivia. If you live in the neighborhood, definitely... Read more »

Review: Wednesday Night Trivia at Cullen's

Review: Wednesday Night Trivia at Cullen's
We were not prepared for the rollercoaster of emotions we felt the Wednesday night we went to trivia at Cullen’s Bar & Grill in Lakeview. As card-carrying members of Team Edward, just the thought of going to Cullen’s made us swoon. Then we read that we missed playing trivia (and becoming best friends) with Rosie... Read more »

Review: Thursday Night Trivia at Hidden Shamrock
Wow. We really wanted to love Hidden Shamrock’s Thursday night trivia. Trivia host Robert personally reached out to us and said all the right things to get us to the first trivia night of the new Autumn season.

Review: Tuesday Night Trivia at Mad River Bar & Grill

Last Tuesday we went to Mad River to check out their trivia night. Trivia is advertised as starting at 8pm, but last Tuesday it didn’t start until 8:51 due to some technical difficulties.  (Yes, we keep exact time.)   Once the night got started, things moved along pretty quickly, so we’re willing to overlook the late...

Once upon a time we had a hard time finding places to play trivia on Thursday nights, but things have definitely changed.  Trivia nights are getting more and more popular throughout the city (there are even some on Sundays!), including a lot of options for Thursday nights.  Last week we ventured to Vines on Clark...

Review: Wednesday Night Trivia at Witt's

Review: Wednesday Night Trivia at Witt's
Prompted by an email suggestion from reader Jacob, tonight we headed to Witt’s for their Wednesday night trivia.  I’d like to start by saying we won at Globe last week.  And Globe is HARD.  Time Out Chicago says it would make even Stephen Hawking sweat.  However, just one week after winning at Globe we got...

Review: Tuesday Night Trivia at Schoolyard

Last Tuesday we headed to one of our old favorite trivia joints, Schoolyard Tavern in Lakeview.  It’s been a while since our last visit, and my how things have changed.  New host, new specials, and bigger crowds.  Based on the droves of people there, they must be doing a lot right.  But we left feeling...
