Join us at our cozy wine bar in Surry Hills for an evening of board games, wine, and great company! Owned by passionate board gamers, we’ve created the perfect space for both casual players and seasoned strategists. HOUSERULES: It's a $10 entry fee (for attendees over 21 years old) or you buy a drink at the bar - it's up to you! When you enter our space, be polite and say hello! Please be respectful of our games and put them back where you found them so that others can enjoy them, too! We have three large tables perfect for groups of four, plus an extra-large communal table, ideal for meeting new friends over a shared love of games. Whether you’re coming solo or with friends, this is the perfect place to connect with fellow board game enthusiasts. We have quick and fun games like Sushi Go, Codenames, and Love Letters, strategy classics like Catan, Ticket to Ride, Carcassonne, and Go, and team-based action with Captain Sonar. For those who enjoy deeper thinking, we have analytical, problem-solving games like Sherlock Holmes: Consulting Detective, along with classic card games and family favourites like Scrabble. For dedicated gamers, we can even bring out rare gems like Sidereal Confluence and The Gallerist with enough notice. And of course, feel free to bring your own favourites too! We are looking forward to playing! Your hosts Lisa and Saxon

From ChillCapybaraClub - Social Group 18to30y
4.2

Hey everyone! 👋 We are hosting this chill casual lunch meetup for anyone who loves gaming! Whether you’re into PC, console, or even board games. We’ll be meeting up at **Rashays Top Ryde**, grabbing a bite, and chatting about all things gaming. 🎮🍔 I’m a huge fan of games like **ARK**, **Minecraft**, and **Fallout 4** (basically anything that involves building and exploring!). But I’m always down to talk about new games or hear about what you’ve been playing. I’m hoping that through this event, everyone will get the chance to make a new friend, discover a game you might want to try, and share your all-time favorite games with other players. Looking forward to meeting you all! 😊
