Minsky's Hotel is a hotel/restaurant in the suburb of Cremorne, NSW (2090). It is located at 287 Military Road, Cremorne. In 2013, the premises underwent major refurbishments. Minksy's now constitutes a downstairs bar, restaurant and gaming room, and an upstairs bar.

Category:Trivia On Tuesday 13th May, Minsk'y Hotel launched a trivia night starting at 7:30pm hosted by local travel magazine editor Richie Richardson. The trivia event is provided by "Sydney's Best Trivia" company for whom Richie has been working for 7 years. Richie previously hosted a trivia night at the Great Northern Hotel in Artarmon, NSW, on a Wednesday evening, however, this was discontinued by the hotel due to poor attendance and a general lack of appreciation among staff members.

Richie is widely regarded as Sydney's best trivia host. He delivers a professional show characterised by his dry humour and rapier wit. His delivery is punctuated with catchphrases and idioms such as 'too much sport' and 'make sure to keep up those fluids and solids'.

The trivia is divided into 3 rounds of 15 questions each. The team with the most points at the end of all three rounds wins $70 in Minsky's bar vouchers; the team with the second-most points wins $30 in bar vouchers. The final question of each round is always worth multiple points and the two preceding questions are always 'name the song and artist' music questions, worth two points each. The quiz also includes a 'true or false' game partway through the third round, the winner of which wins a jar of coins to which each participant contributes a dollar. The quiz also includes a jackpot round after the main quiz in which each team plays to win the $500 jackpot by answering three difficult questions (typically of the form 'nearest to the pin'). In the past, questions have included "what is the unit of measure of electromagnetism?". To date the jackpot has never been won.

Several teams participate regularly, one of which is finished first or second in every round bar one since the trivia's inception at Minsky's hotel. This team's name changes each week but the team can usually be identified by its smutty or tasteless team name.
