Monday isn't the biggest trivia night in St. John's, that's Tuesday, with five venues competing for players. But if you prefer a quieter start to the week, Monday has two solid options.

Less crowded. Same trivia.

Trinity Pub

Time: 7:30pm Prize: Bucket of Molson beer

Trinity Pub offers straightforward, no-cost trivia. Show up, grab a table, play for a bucket of beer.

The atmosphere is classic pub, nothing fancy, nothing complicated. Good for teams who want trivia without the fuss. Monday crowds are lighter than later in the week, so you won't fight for seats.

Best for: Free trivia, casual Monday vibes, smaller crowds.


Bannerman Brewing

Time: 7pm Format: First come, first served Location: Downtown

Bannerman is one of three breweries in the St. John's area that hosts trivia.

No booking required; just show up. The brewery setting means good craft beer on tap and a more modern atmosphere than your average pub.

Starting at 7pm, it's the earlier of the two Monday options. Good if you want to play trivia and still get home at a reasonable hour.

Best for: Craft beer fans, brewery atmosphere, earlier start time.

Which Should You Choose?

Want free trivia? Trinity Pub. No cover, bucket of beer as a prize.

Want craft beer and a brewery vibe? Bannerman.

Want more options? Consider Tuesday trivia instead, five venues to choose from, including YellowBelly's charity-focused night.

Either way, Monday is a good night for trivia if you prefer fewer people. The teams that show up tend to be regulars who like the quieter pace.


Need a Team?

Monday trivia is casual, but you still need people to play with.

Rally helps you find trivia teammates heading to the same night. Match with a few people before you go, show up together, compete as a squad.

Better than hoping the people at the next table want to merge.

Start Your Week Right

Monday trivia won't have the energy of a packed Tuesday night, and that's the point. Two venues, smaller crowds, lower stakes.

Trinity Pub if you want free. Bannerman if you want brewery vibes.
