Chess at Straw Hat Pizza in Milpitas! 6pm

Let's meet at Straw Hat Pizza for some friendly chess! Feel free to bring extra boards, timers, pieces, etc. Beginners and experts welcome!

We meet in the area to the immediate left of the front door. Look for people with chess sets :) This location also has a few arcade games along with big screens showing sports. Ordering food and beverages is strongly encouraged and they allow people under 21. Tuesday is half-price pizza night!

Many of us stay until closing at 10. Feel free to drop in or out at any point between those times. Many regulars also do not RSVP — 15-20 attendees is common recently.

If you're wondering what to expect, most of us at the moment are around 1000-1400 with a few 1800 players (and a 2300 FIDE Master). Some folks play with clocks, some play bullet, some play bughouse, and some play untimed. Play however you'd like, or even just hang out and spectate. The only goal is to have a good time.
