Hidden inside the Grand Arcade in the city centre, behind the doors of a working barbers, you'll find the entrance to The Domino Club, a hidden speakeasy that has built up a reputation for being one of the best live music venues the city has to offer.
While away the night to the sound of smooth jazz, funk and transport yourself back to the prohibition era, with a drink of something strong to hand.
Alongside an extensive wine and beer list, you’ll also find some top-notch cocktails on the drinks list here. Head down for a combination of timeless classics, re-works of favourites, and signature mixes like oat milk white Russians, strawberry and watermelon Ambratos, and a Riesling cobbler made with riesling wine, peach, lemon and soda.
The bar is usually open Wednesday - Sunday, but now you'll be able to head down to the secret bar once a month for a quiz night on a Tuesday evening.
Opening its doors to punters searching for an unusual night out away from the hustle and bustle of the city centre, and ready for a night of non-stop laughs.
The first official quiz night is taking place on Tuesday 19 March 2024, where teams of four (recommended, but not essential) will take part in round-upon-round of musical knowledge questions.
With themes like 'guess the song' from the live band performance right down to trying to see if you can work out what is being played by a blindfolded band, good music knowledge is encouraged but certainly not essential - we got by just fine with our general knowledge of 80s bangers and Spotify playlists.

Announcing the news on Instagram, The Domino Club said:
"The Big Fat Domino Quiz is coming your way on March 19th!
"Our glorious friend Jacob Savage has put together something truly unique, with a full band of players testing your listening skills to get you thinking outside the (juke)box.
"We know you’ll be blown away by the insane talents of Jacob and his band as they play some of your favourite pop songs in ways you’ve never heard, can you spot the Kanye West song played in the style of Russian composer Sergei Rachmaninoff? Will you recognise some rock bangers when they only sing every other word? Can Jacob really play Life On Mars blindfolded?
"With a whole bunch of fun and creative rounds this is a night you wont forget and is head and shoulders above what you think a music quiz could be. Just wait till you see the kazoo round…….
"We recommend teams of 4, tickets are £10 per person and we also have some class prizes up for grabs too.
"This isn’t your average pub quiz, this is how The Domino does a quiz.
