Life has been pretty quickly returning to Fitzroy's well-loved neighbourhood local, Builders Arms Hotel. But for quiz fiends and food nerds, the real fun kicks off this Wednesday, February 24, with the much-anticipated return of the pub's legendary trivia night. Working a bit of hump day fun into one Wednesday a month, the series is once again helmed by famously irreverent foodie and host of Triple R's Sunday Eat It program, Cam Smith.

Each month, contestants will find themselves engaging in a fierce battle of the facts, with three rounds of questions covering topics from booze and food, to art, culture and even Fitzroy itself. Prepare your senses for a few bonus interactive rounds as well — blind tastings may even be on the cards. Last series, champion teams enjoyed prizes like wine magnums, gourmet meat trays from nearby Meatsmith, loaded food hampers and vouchers to the bistro.

To fuel all that brain work, trivia-goers can take advantage of the kitchen's British-accented bistro menu — think, sophisticated cheeseburgers and a fish pie — and that full bar offering, with table service available during play.
