Upcoming events (4+)
See all- Fortnightly Board Games at Benito Lounge, ChorltonBenito Lounge, Manchester
Join us every two weeks for an evening of fun, food and friendly company at Benito Lounge, Chorlton. We play everything from casual party games to the latest in cutting edge strategy. It's an evening guaranteed to stimulate and entertain!
We don't charge for this event and there's no need to book, just come along on the night. If you're new to board games, people are always happy to explain the rules and get you up to speed. If you can't make it on time, games start throughout the evening. Turn up when it's good for you and we'll fit you in somewhere!
Typically, 30-50 attend with 5-10 games in progress at any time. Don't pay too much attention to how many sign up here. This event is advertised on Facebook and multiple meetup groups. Most regulars don't sign up at all!
Some of the Games We've Played
Coup - Concordia - Code Names - Decrypto - War of the Ring - Beyond the Sun - Heat: Pedal to the Metal - Cryptid - Wingspan - So CloverAnd many more!
Like many games nights, we are entirely dependant on the games people bring. So, if you have some favourites you think you can teach, please do! <3

Welcome to the Font of all Board Games! We meet at The Font, in Chorlton, every other week. If you're new, people are always happy to explain the rules and get you up to speed. We don't charge for this event and there's no need to book. Games start throughout the evening so turn up when it's good for you and we'll fit you in somewhere!
Some games we have played recently: Coup - Concordia - Code Names - Decrypto - War of the Ring - Beyond the Sun - Heat: Pedal to the Metal - Ark Nova - Cryptid - Wingspan - So Clover.
We don't have a games library from which people can borrow, so if you have some favourites think you can teach and bring along, please do. If people don't bring them, we'll have nothing to play!
Attendance is usually in the range 20-50. Don't be put off by the numbers who sign up here. This event is advertised in several meetup groups, Facebook and elsewhere. Most regulars don't sign up at all :)
Finding parking can be tricky on the adjacent streets so I recommend taking a look at Buckingham Road and Clarendon Road W, 2 minutes walk away. There's also paid for parking about 7 minutes walk away next to Chorlton precinct.
