Trivia in Buffalo New York

5 trivia venues are available in Buffalo, NY

Buffalo's trivia scene is dominated by one company to a degree that's unusual for a city this size, and that company is DJ Trivia, which hosts at a staggering 42 of the city's 66 active venues. Their reach extends from downtown Buffalo to Williamsville, Tonawanda, West Seneca, Orchard Park, Depew, Kenmore, Cheektowaga, and Hamburg, covering everything from Anchor Bar in Amherst and Duff's Famous Wings to Fattey Beer Co. locations, Fat Bob's Smokehouse, and Britesmith Brewing on Niagara Street. Papi Grande's on Maple Road even runs two DJ Trivia nights a week. They've essentially built a trivia infrastructure for the entire metro. Geeks Who Drink holds the second position with seven venues: Big Ditch Brewing downtown, Lloyd Taco Factory and The Beer Keep on Elmwood Ave, Vault@237 on Main Street, Resurgence Brewing in Larkinville, Hat Trix in Hamburg, and Bar 1818 on Sheridan Drive. Taproom Trivia WNY runs five spots including Colter Bay on Delaware Ave, Jack Rabbit on Elmwood, duende at Silo City, Moor Room on Hertel Ave, and Chandler Street Breweries. With the companies covering so much ground, the independent scene is small but notable. Founding Fathers Pub on Edward Street, 26 Allen on Allentown's main strip, The Winesmith on Main, Gene McCarthy's in the First Ward, Sterling Place Tavern on Hertel, Spotted Octopus Brewing, and Caputi's Sheridan Pub all run their own nights. Every night of the week has games, even Saturday at Buffalo Creek Bar & Grill and Sunday afternoon at Pendleton Creek Pub, but Tuesday through Thursday carry the heaviest volume.
