4 Fun Things You Didn’t Know You Could Do at Your Local Pub in Penacook, NH

Pubs are often seen as the go-to place for grabbing a pint, maybe a meal, and chatting with friends. But did you know that one local pub is much more than just a watering hole? Whether you're looking to spice up your weeknight or find something different to do with your friends, your local pub might offer more than meets the eye. Here are four unique activities you can enjoy at The Forum Pub — activities you might not have known existed!

1. Craft Night: Unleash Your Inner Artist

Forget about the usual happy hour vibes and dive into something more creative. The Forum Pub hosts a bi-monthly Thursday craft night, where patrons can come together to work on crochet, embroidery, and even historically accurate costumes! All handcrafts are welcome! All you need is a drink in hand (maybe a pint of something local?) and a willingness to share your skills. Whether you’re a seasoned crafter or just trying it out for the first time, it’s a fantastic way to unwind, socialize, and make progress on that project you’ve been working on.

2. Trivia Night: Put Your Knowledge to the Test

Who doesn't love a little friendly competition? Trivia night is a Tuesday night staple at The Forum Pub, and it’s the perfect way to test your knowledge on everything from pop culture to history, science, and beyond. Grab a team, or join one if you're flying solo, and prepare for an evening of fast-paced questions, laughs, and maybe a little healthy rivalry.

It’s not just about the prizes (though they can be pretty great); trivia nights offer a chance to learn random facts, bond with your friends, and show off your inner trivia nerd. And let’s face it, there’s something extra satisfying about answering that tough question correctly — especially when your team cheers you on!

3. Dungeons & Dragons: A Fantasy Adventure Awaits

Yes, you read that right — The Forum Pub now hosts Thursday Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) nights! Whether you’re an experienced Dungeon Master or a newbie rolling your first set of dice, you can immerse yourself in a world of fantasy. The Forum Pub has become the perfect setting for these magical adventures, offering a cozy, laid-back atmosphere where you can explore new worlds, solve puzzles, and battle mythical creatures alongside your friends (or total strangers who quickly become your adventuring party).

4. Euchre: A Rust Belt Card Game Tradition

If you're looking for a more traditional, yet still exciting, way to spend a Saturday afternoon, Euchre might be just the game for you. This classic card game, beloved by many, is often played in pairs, making it a perfect pub activity for friends or couples. While Euchre can sometimes be a bit of a regional game (it’s particularly popular in the Midwest and parts of Canada), it’s easy to learn, and we’re happy to teach you!

Euchre is fast-paced, full of strategy, and plenty of banter — exactly what you want in a pub game. So, grab a seat at one of the tables, order a drink, and get ready to compete for bragging rights — or just enjoy a fun afternoon of cards and laughs.

So, What's Stopping You?

The next time you're at The Forum Pub, take a look around — you might just find yourself signing up for trivia night, crafting something cool, rolling dice for a D&D adventure, or getting into a heated Euchre match. With so many fun, unique activities now available, The Forum Pub is not just a place to grab a drink; it’s a place to create, compete, and connect with others in ways you didn’t know were possible! And remember, the best nights often happen when you step outside the usual routine.
