Friday Night Games @ The Hampton at Hilton Hotel (Fountain park)

TYPICAL GAMES: Everything from party games to strategic epics!
GAMES LIBRARY: BYO, plus small library on site
FOOD & DRINKS: Bar + Starbucks, small food menu (20% Discount for EBG attendees).

What better way to celebrate the end of another week than with some drinks, chat and games! Were over with our friends at The Hampton by Hilton near fountain park for a bit!

The tables are smaller than we have at other venues. We can move them around as long as we put them back. Please dont take too many, we need to leave some for others.

The hotel is giving us the space for free on the understanding that we encourage people to buy their lovely food and drink. Please don't bring in your own. The staff preparing the food are also serving at the bar and manning the hotel desk. Please be patient with them if they are slow serving!

• 20% Discount at the Hotel bar if you use the phrase: "Can I get the discount, I'm with the gamers over there. Cheers!" ... or they just realise you're with us.

We`ll be there from 630-7:00 ish until 11:30-12:00 ish. Don't worry if you're going to be late. Games will be starting and ending throughout the evening. It’s unusual to need to wait more than 10-15 mins at events like these. We do need to be out of the door by 12 exactly though due to their licencing rules. So please keen an eye on time.

Bring games if you like. We'll have some on site too. A wide range get played from lighter stuff to big chunky ones.

As ever, please do not donate if money is tight. There is absolutely no pressure, obligation, or judgement here. You are helping us plenty by just adding to the friendly atmosphere and we`d much rather you spent cash at the venue if deciding between the two.

I'M NEW AND UNSURE WHAT TO DO! Do not fear! We know it can be daunting for newcomers. But please don’t worry, we have a fantastic base of regulars who have all been new at some point. You`ll find people are very friendly and the organisers even actively keep an eye open to make sure you get a warm welcome. If we've missed you, just ask one of the tables. What to Expect: The day is very informal. Some people will have pre-planned a longer game (feel free to use the comments), but the vast majority will honesty just form tables with whoever is free using the big pile of games we keep on site. It’s a great way to meet new people.

DO I NEED TO KNOW ALL THE GAMES? Not at all! Honestly, that would be an impressive feat in its own right! Dont worry, people usually find a game someone knows how to teach, often something they brought from home and we try to keep a good number of easy to pick up ones in the library.
