Long Beach Trivia Nights
Trivia nights are a fun way to spend time with friends, connect and team-build with colleagues, or plug into the social scene when you’re flying solo. In Long Beach, you can find great trivia nights at local breweries and restaurants almost every night of the week. Check out our guide below and put that random knowledge you’ve stockpiled over the years to good use!
ALTAR SOCIETY BREWING & COFFEE CO.
There’s a new game in town with Epic Pub Quiz starting May 13 and continuing every Wednesday at Altar Society Brewing (230 Pine Ave) from 7 to 9 PM. Try your hand at trivia with friends to win prizes while enjoying Altar’s menu of hearty pub food–from pizza and wings to salads and sliders. Pair it with a beer flight to sample some of Altar’s best brews, or try a craft cocktail or glass of wine. Keep tabs on upcoming offerings at @altarsocietybrewingco on Instagram.
Beachwood Blendery
Beachwood Blendery (247 Long Beach Blvd) is your Downtown Long Beach headquarters for pub games with friends, with billiards, darts, and pinball available every night and trivia nights every Tuesday at 7 PM hosted by @thinkydrinky. Test your knowledge while enjoying the $6 full-pour beer special. The Blendery was created to produce craft brews inspired by the fruity Lambic-style sour beers of Belgium. But you don’t have to love sours to enjoy the Blendery–they offer 18 rotating taps featuring a variety of beers that includes West Coast IPAs, sours, and hard seltzers.
