    Attended the Sunday night pub quiz in the Tilted Wig for the first time. We had a great time and would definitely return when next in town. The bar staff were friendly and professional. The quiz it’s self was also good and a broad range of participants/teams from students to the more mature ( we were also in the more mature category!) a free sizeable bowl of rather tasty nachos were also part of the deal so all in all a rather fun and successful night.

    A great pub in the city centre. If you’re eating here, make sure you’re hungry - very generous portions! We went for the Sunday night quiz which always draws a good crowd. I redeemed some of my loyalty card points for a free cocktail! The loyalty cards are such a good idea, get one if you go here regularly!
