Knight Moves is a board game café located in Brookline, MA. The café offers coffee, snacks, and a massive board game library. Customers will enjoy a comfortable space, with knowledgeable staff and a relaxed atmosphere. An evening at Knight Moves is hassle-free entertainment and a chance to spend time face to face with family and friends.
Knight Moves is just one of many independent board game cafes opening up in the United States this year: Game Haus in LA, The Uncommons in NY, and Gaslamp in Seattle. Though Board Game Cafes have become a tradition in Asia, Europe, and Canada, they’ve yet to truly take root in the United States. As board games become increasingly popular, more and more people are looking for convenient public space to share their hobby. Additionally, as more and more board games enter the market, savvy consumers are interested in trying games out and learning the rules before buying the games.
The Board Game Community in Boston is a vibrant growing thing. There are dozens of board game groups in the Boston area. Groups of people meet and play games in less than perfect environments: cramped restaurants, college classrooms, and the back rooms of comic book shops. Knight Moves will provide a common space to enrich the board game playing experience and foster this growing community. Knight Moves will be your living room away from home.

Will you be offering gift certificates before Christmas?
