Few Sydney bars have weathered storms, fashions and flights of fancy the way Longrain has. Spicy, punched-up vodka drinks hold no currency the way they do here, where they make perfect sense pared with chef Martin Boetz's smart Thai menu. For over a decade Longrain have operated in the Commonwealth Street warehouse, resident DJ in the corner spinning beatz, with the bar and restaurant operating side by side. A very recent renovation, however, has seen this Surry Hills stalwart expand into a multi-level haven of spice and good times. And now they're offering food and drink trivia! Every week you have the chance to win prizes, eat a deep-fried duck leg and sip on a Camp Bitch. Yes!

I went last week and loved it. I love trivia and love food and wine even more so thought it was a great way to spend a night with my friends. Well done Longrain - i'll be back next week.

I thought Longrain's trivia night was such a great thing to do on a quiet Monday. It was a great vibe which connected other patrons in the bar. A bit like the communal dining upstairs. Very social! Anyone who doesn't enjoy it must be lacking the foodie gene.

Went to Longrain recently on a Monday night for dinner and thought we'd relax with a few cocktails in the bar first. Was puzzled to see that they were holding a trivia night - completely ruined the vibe.
