Pub quiz nights in Zurich: where to play

Zurich has a smaller English-language scene than bigger cities, but it definitely exists. The best nights are usually in Irish pubs and English-run bars with a steady expat crowd.

Kennedy’s is the most established quiz night in Zurich and the one to book early if you want a guaranteed table.

The Alehouse

Grain Craft Bar & Restaurant

Fluntern

When
Tuesdays, 8pm
Quick info
Phone-based questions; teams of up to four; bring a charged device

This is a slightly different format, but a good choice if you like a more modern, phone-based quiz rather than paper answers.

Brauerei Oerlikon

Oerlikon
Venue page
When
First Monday of the month, 7pm
Quick info
Monthly quiz; brewery taproom; good if you want a one-off event

A nice option if you like the idea of a quiz in a working brewery rather than a standard pub room.

Free entry; five rounds plus picture round; call ahead to confirm timing

This is a good pick if you are heading out to the west of the city and do not mind a slightly longer trip for a proper pub quiz.
