We are so excited to be the one of the first board game cafes in the Southeast US! What is a board game cafe? It's a place you can go with family, friends, or even alone to choose from a selection of over 600 tabletop board and card games to play while you eat, drink, and be merry. The Rook & Pawn serves food, coffee, tea, and spirits to enjoy while you play Candyland, Monopoly, Settlers of Catan, Twilight Imperium, or whatever game you like! We first conceived the idea of The Rook & Pawn in 2014, but our love for games started as kids. We both loved playing board and card games with our families as children and have continued to do so with our own boys. We had heard of board game cafe success in Europe and of a few starting up here in the US, and we thought it would be great if Athens had somewhere everyone could enjoy the camaraderie that board games give. We wanted a place where you could put down your phone and really talk with your friends and family. It can sometimes be difficult to disconnect, or even once you do to start a conversation with your growing kids. Games give you a chance to really interact with the people you love while having fun!* We hope to see you there on opening day! Happy gaming!
