Friday and Saturday live music gives the pub a built-in reason to become the whole night, not just a dinner stop. It works best when the group wants pub food, drinks, and a room with some volume.

Weekend live music, special events, sports viewing, and indoor golf make the visit more activity-led than a standard meal, especially for groups that want food with something to do.

Thursday Name That Tune gives the pub a repeatable midweek reason to gather beyond dinner. Pairing that with wings, nachos, or a burger keeps the visit casual and active without relying on a one-off event calendar.

Music trivia and live music give The Office a reason to work beyond dinner. Use it for a social visit: shareables, a burger or two, and a drink round matched to the evening rhythm.

Tapas Thursday changes dinner into a shared small-plates experience rather than a sequence of separate mains. Live music adds another reason to choose Johnny Rocco’s when the evening matters as much as the order.

The interaction comes from pacing: dishes arrive in waves, favourites get reordered, and the meal changes direction as the group explores the menu. Shared discovery makes dinner feel participatory even before the restaurant’s playful service touches enter the picture.

The interactive part is in the ordering: choose taco fillings, split birria and nachos, pick margarita flavours, and use the weekly board to shape the night. It feels active without needing a formal showpiece.
