What we’re about
This is a meeting spot for people interested in chess, we don't have any expectations for member's skill level.
We mostly play blitz, games without time control, or sometimes even bughouse*. There's usually no need to bring your own chess set, we have enough.
Come join us for a few games, friendly chat and some fun!

As spring is in full swing, it's the perfect time to join us for a weekend of chess at Laurierboom, Amsterdam’s local chess café.
All levels are very welcome, we usually play 5+0 blitz, but any other time control or none at all is also possible, and even bughouse if you're up for it.
The event is free. Laurierboom will open doors earlier than usual, especially for us, so we have plenty of time and room to play.
