Noite de Board Games
**ATUALIZACAO: O local do evento foi mudado para o Bad Moon Cafe em Holloway Road, por conta das mesas em Borough terem acabado com mais antecedencia do que o normal.**
*Se voce ainda vai participar, favor me responder ou por mensagem ou por comentario aqui no grupo, caso a gente precise mudar o tamanho da mesa. Obrigado e desculpas pelo transtorno!*
Eu tambem criei uma comunidade no whatsapp para facilitar troca de informacoes, por conta de nem todo mundo usar o app do MeetUp: Quem quiser participar, é só entrar pelo link: https://chat.whatsapp.com/BF0AYLNxTAhCkKLHxQlqji

\*Dar ideias para próximos encontros
Tem gente no grupo que já joga há anos e gente que está começando agora — então não precisa ter experiência para participar. Todo mundo é bem-vindo!

Board, card & dice games night at my place or The George (depending on numbers)
Hi everyone!
(pre-pandemic information)
If you like to play modern board, card and dice games, and to meet new people, then join us on Monday evenings from 6pm until the pub closes around 11pm.
Feel free to bring your own games if you have them, but don't worry if you don't as regular members will bring some along. And of course, we'll teach you how to play them if you don't know already.
You work late? No worries - you can join us any time before closing (11pm), so if you don't arrive at 6pm (attendees tend to arrive around 6:30 or 7pm), don't worry :-) Everyone comes and goes when they like, so it is possible that you may be the first to arrive or the last to leave,
Please write in the comments what time you expect to arrive at the pub, so we can try to avoid anyone having to wait alone for long.
We are a relaxed and friendly group, made up of both natives and foreigners, of locals and those living further afield, happy to welcome newbies and regulars.
Events are free to attend, but it is respectable to the public venues we hold them at if you can buy at least one drink or some food while you are present, just like anyone else at the pub would do.
If you would like to contribute towards the costs of running of this group, feel free to buy the host(s) a drink of their choice when you see them, for which they'd be very grateful. This saves money that can be put towards the Meetup subscription fees and buying the games that we all play.
The George is a reasonably-priced 'local' pub in the Docklands, near Canary Wharf, just 1 minute walk from Crossharbour DLR station, or about 15 minutes walk from the Canary Wharf Jubilee line station. Various TFL buses stop nearby.
Don't forget to join our group on Facebook for games news, articles, memes, gossip and banter: https://www.facebook.com/groups/Tabletop.Gamers.London.Docklands/
Piña Coladas and Pawns by Yas Queen! Chess Club
Join us at Piña Coladas and Pawns by Yas Queen! Chess Club for a fun evening of chess and drinks! Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned pro, come hang out with us at The Old School Yard and enjoy some friendly games of chess in a queer friendly space.
It's the perfect opportunity to meet new people, learn new strategies, and of course, enjoy some drinks. We'll bring the boards, you bring yourselves. Don't miss out on this awesome evening!
More about us on [yasqueen.uk](https://www.yasqueen.uk)

*Yas Queen! Code of Conduct:*
We are an LGBTQ+ club. All allies are welcome. We reserve the right to exclude anyone from our events in case of any behaviour (at our events or otherwise) which does not support our aim of creating a safe space for LGBTQ+ club members.
Board Games at Cabbage Patch, Twickenham
Join us for board games and drinks at the Cabbage Patch in Twickenham.
We play a wide range of modern board and card games and typically start the evening with some light party games before getting into other favourites. All are welcome, please come and say hello.
This event has a chat group, you’ll get an invitation to join it once you register.
To find us: Head to the back of the pub to the restaurant area.
There is no charge for the event but it helps maintain our use of the space if people buy food and/or drink from the restaurant.

Your friendly game leader will explain the rules and kick off the first game! Games last about 50 minutes, with about 10 minutes of social time in-between to laugh about who got marooned and who got rich! At the end of the meetup we get food and hang out until the owls are hooting

Follow the map and use the app to dig for treasure... Then the real fun begins! Your destiny is in your hands: embrace the life of a pirate and plunder as much booty as possible? Become a merchant and trade your way to victory? Or become a Kingsman with a royal decree to clean up the pirate menace? It really is up to you how you play, the more creative the better! Board your boat to leave the island before the game time runs out. At the end you will see a leaderboard showing everyone’s scores

Board Games in Finsbury Park 🎲♟️🐺
**Whether you’re brand new to board games or just looking for a cosy way to meet people, this night is designed with you in mind.**
We run our board game night every two weeks, always in the same venue, and with the same familiar hosts. Our aim is simple: create the kind of event you enjoy so much that you want to come back - and maybe make a few new friends along the way.
**Please use the link below to purchase tickets for this event.**
[https://dplsk.eventcube.io/events/95986/board-games-at-finsbury-park/](https://dplsk.eventcube.io/events/95986/board-games-at-finsbury-park/)
**⭐ What Makes This Event Special ⭐**
**The Venue:** Blighty is cosy, colourful, and just a little bit quirky — like the living room of your eccentric aunt. It also has a fabulous garden where we play board games when the weather is nice.
**The Games:** We currently own over 50 games, including favourites like Articulate, Codenames, and Secret Hitler. Every game is hand‑picked for maximum fun and easy learning.
**Blood on the Clocktower:** We often run Blood on the Clocktower as a special feature of the night. It’s completely optional, always beginner‑friendly, and a brilliant way to meet people through laughter, bluffing, and bold accusations.
**The Hosts:** They are some of the loveliest people you will ever meet on Meetup. It doesn’t matter if it is your 1st time or 100th time coming to the board game night, they will always make you feel welcome.
**Who This Event Is For**
This night is perfect for people who are new to board games or just want something light, social, and easy going.
* You don’t need to know any games beforehand.
* You’re welcome to come alone or with a friend - either is completely fine.
This is not a hardcore gaming night. You won’t find Dungeons & Dragons or Magic: The Gathering here.
**Price — £5 per person**
Your contribution helps us keep the event fresh and fun:
* We buy new games every month to expand and update our collection.
* Any games we no longer need are donated back to the community through regular giveaways.
Please note that tickets are non-refundable and non-transferrable.

🤓 Everyone’s welcome: regulars are happy to teach, and hosts can introduce you or suggest games. **Drop in anytime**; new games start as people arrive.
🤤 The venue hosts us for free, so please grab some food or drinks from the **100% vegan kitchen and bar** to support them.

Sunday Gaming at The Bedford
This event will take place in the Ballroom, so more space for everyone.
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 are of course welcome to stay as long you like, you can leave when you've scratched your gaming itch at any time.
As these sessions are normally for longer games, a lot of people arrange games before hand in the chat, if you see one you would like to play, just reply and ask if there is space, easy.
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, or someone in the hi-vis jacket. Some of our old hands will be wearing badges, so you could ask them. We'll endeavour to get you into a game that suits you and your gaming level.
Please remember to read the club description for our rules (there aren't many), and remember, please don't bring in food or drink from outside, we are getting the room for free and we don't want to jeopardise this. Also please be aware that being a Sunday our members will be playing longer games, so if you do turn up late or without organising a game, there maybe quite a wait.
Hope to see you there.
