What we’re about
Join us to meet local gamers! We play a variety of American and Euro style games, such as Apples-to-Apples, Blokkus, Carcassonne, Resistance, Betrayal at House on the Hill, Puerto Rico, Settlers of Catan, Taboo, Ticket to Ride and Uno. We provide a way for fellow gamers to have fun, meet new people, and play various types of games any night of the week. Our members love to share their games, are very willing to teach others how to play something if they've never played before, and love learning new games. Everyone is always welcome to join us - from the seasoned gamer to those who like to casually play every once in a while. If you just want to watch a game and not actually play, you are welcome too!
Don't worry if it there are few registered event attendees on Meetup - lots of regulars don't use it and we use it primarily to promote Boardgaming to prospective members that want to join in the fun. You can also find us on Facebook and join our Discord.

Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale,
A tale of a meetup trip
That started from a small cafe
In a Texas shopping strip.
The medic was a mighty fixing man,
The leader brave and sane.
Five passengers would play that day
In a three hour game, a three hour game.
The rules to learn were very rough,
Some time to game was lost,
If not for the courage of the fearless crew
The Cafe would be lost, the Cafe would be lost.
The ship set ground on the shore of this tableau building isle
With Anderson
A Mike or two,
The Air of Rick and his Reed,
The Bollywood star
Some guys whose names start with "C",
Here on Meyerland's Isle!!!
Like many of the meet up groups we do not have many people who RSVP here, however have been averaging 12 - 20 people per meet up session all year. Looking forward to a great second half of the year and hopefully many of you can reach our 25, 50, and 100 meetings a year milestones.
While we do give notifications, most of our chats are usually on Facebook here https://www.facebook.com/groups/1793158480903996
Come check us out!
Cafe Express has a Happy Hour from 3 - 6pm everyday that the early crew can take advantage of.
Please thank the general manager Nancy if you see her and buy food so we can continue to coexist peacefully and don't be surprised if Danielle remembers your order better than you do. See Less
