When was the signing of the Declaration of Independence? How many ounces are in a pound? Who was the 26th president of the United States? If you can answer all of these—and many, many more questions from the beginning of time until now—then you might consider trying your luck at one of these weekly trivia nights. (Recommended for those who love trivia and pride themselves on all their random knowledge.)

They have appetizers, salads, classics (like mac and cheese!), burgers, and sandwiches for you to choose from. Drinks range from your average beer to a premium brew to wines by the glass.
