Knight Moves Cafe

About

Knight Moves Cafe is a board game cafe in Brookline’s Coolidge Corner with a library of thousands of games, a kitchen and a menu of food and drinks. Visitors pay a single game fee that covers each player from open until close, so groups can play as many games as they like and come and go as they please. For players unsure what to choose, the cafe is beta testing an online board game recommender and invites feedback on it.

The cafe also works as a community hub for tabletop players. It runs mahjong drop-in free play sessions and has been gauging interest in mahjong classes for both beginners and experienced players, and it hosts social nights such as Sapphic + Social. Non-gamers can order from the menu and hang out while space allows, though players get priority for table space.

What to Know
