I had a great time at this bar. The atmosphere is really fun and welcoming, and the activities like quiz nights make it much more interesting than a regular bar. It’s a perfect place to go with friends, enjoy drinks, and actually do something together instead of just sitting around. The staff were friendly, and the events were well organized. I’d definitely come back again for another quiz night.
A very enjoyable experience. Two people came along with my friends, took care of them and combined them with a table. The employees were very engaged and had a pleasant night.
It was incredible:)) I reached other dimensions as I described what I felt about this experience, and I hope you can understand what I experienced
I loved it. We met new people and it was fun. All the visitors and the employee were nice. We had a great time. Also pizza was delicious.
The questions were fun, met some interesting people, the moderators were also very helpful and engaging. The venue was super nice
Everyone knows what ı'm doing on tursday night. İt's the best thing to do in a weekday.. come and have fun maybe we can even be in a same team
İt was an amazing enjoyable night it was first time for me I would like to join again that qui nite definitely will increase my education level of my life
Questions are very well thought! I really enyojed it. It’s bilingual; Turkish and English. Will join again definitely for sure.
Great trivia! Questions are also in Turkish/Turkey centered, which I love since it makes it accessible for locals as well - do make sure you have a Turkish person on your team! A very fun experience every week I go, whether you're just passing through or living here!
2/5 Not for tourists, ~30% of the questions are very Turkish. Very chaotic and poorly organized, doesn’t follow advertised time frame. Good enough rounds, but not up to our pub quiz standard. Young person drinking crowd vibe, not for serious quizzers.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We really appreciate you joining us and understand that trivia formats can vary quite a bit from place to place. We’ve been running this event for many years and it’s actually the longest-running pub quiz in Istanbul. The trivia culture here is definitely a little different from what some might be used to elsewhere. Our most recent session had roughly 200 attendees, which made it a bit livelier (and admittedly a little more chaotic) than usual. We do our best to stick to the advertised schedule, though things can occasionally run slightly over. As for the content, all of our questions are written in English first and then translated into Turkish. We strive to make the majority of them globally accessible while including a few about Türkiye, since that’s where we’re based. We also intentionally mix teams so locals and internationals can play together, which often leads to great conversations and cultural exchanges. While we love when seasoned quizzers join us, our goal has always been to create a fun, social environment where people can meet, laugh, and maybe learn a few new things along the way. We truly appreciate you giving it a try and wish you all the best with your future trivia adventures.
