The midweek is here! And that means it’s time to check in on how our brains and senses of humor are holding up after the early week’s hullabuhloo. (How does one spell such a word?)

Join us and our quizmaster, The Mysterious Bill Watkins, for 25 questions tonight, Wednesday, August 18. He’ll deliver the generally interesting general interest brain busters to teams of up to 4, and plenty of good fun will be had. This isn’t the SATs or GREs or whatever other exams once made ye sweat. It’s a pub quiz in the Isles’ style and it’s always a good time. Nice laughs and fantastic pub food and pints being served up.

Join in, observe, enjoy a weekday break. Quiz starts at 7:30 pm sharpish.

The English Premier League provides an international showcase of talent and an unmatched level of fan frenzy and fun. This weekend, August 14 and 15, Merlins Rest is proud to begin showing Premiership matches live on the big screen.

To boot, we’re serving up breakfast alongside the broadcasts!
