What we're about

Hello budding board gamers! We are a group of people who love to meet up and play board games. We normally play a wide range of games from High European strategy games like Agricola, Dungeon Lords, etc, to the very light fun games like 6 Nimmit, Pictomania, etc. as the evening moves along and the beer kicks in. Don’t worry if you’re new to the games - we are great explainers!

We meet weekly at the Bedford Public House, (normally upstairs in the Cocktail bar). We aim to start at 6pm, but this isn't hard and fast and go on until about 10 - 10:30, or just whenever you feel you've scratched your gaming itch! It isn't a problem if you can't be there right on 6pm, but please be aware that if you do turn up late games might already be in progress, and you might have to wait to join one.

Everybody is welcomed and if you ask for Rocky, James or Stuart, we'll make sure you can get into a game that suits you and your gaming level.

Please also understand that it is a small space with a special atmosphere. Please don't bring social deduction games that may disrupt others at nearby tables. If you really want to play one, ask one of the organisers and they can advise you. There may be occasions when we arrange evenings dedicated to these games which we'll communicate in advance, thanks.

Weekly Gaming at the Bedford

The Bedford

A weekly meetup for people interested in playing (or learning to play) new-style board games.

You're welcome to bring a board or card game that ideally you can teach others yourself, but if you don't have one don't worry, you're still very welcome! There will be plenty of games and people who will teach so why not try something new.

It's best if you can arrive by the start time so that you can definitely join a game when you arrive. If you're new to the group, ask for Rocky, James or Stuart, we'll make sure we get you into a game that suits you and your gaming level.

Hope you see you soon!

Sunday Gaming at The Bedford

The Bedford

Looking to play some longer games, or just fill a lazy Sunday? Well why not join us at The Bedford for an extended gaming session.

You'll welcome to bring your own games (it would be great if you could teach as well), or just join in with one of the others someone brings. There will be plenty of choice no doubt.

Good fun, great company and delightful location are (almost) guaranteed, with excellent food and drink on hand.

If it's your first time just ask for Rocky, James or Stuart and we'll endeavour to get you into a game that suits your level.

We will be upstairs in the Cocktail bar, so come and spend as much time as you desire.

Please note: Do not bring food in from outside, I understand if you want to eat cheaper, but please eat it away from the pub. It was noticed that this has happened, I didn't think of it at the time (that's on me), but we really don't want to lose the space. Thank you for your understanding.
