Every Thursday - Open Game Night
Every Thursday - Here's a chance to have fun and connect with others! In the German tradition of Stammtisch, where cafes have designated tables for locals to drop by and chat with others, and inspired by all the fun board game cafes, we will open the Henniker Dining Room on Thursdays from 3:00-7:00 pm for games - starting 1/9/25! There’s no obligation to order food or drink, but we will offer $3 off anything ordered. We’ll also put out some cookies and coffee, or maybe even some cheese! We have plenty of games, but feel free to bring your own. We just ask that you be open to playing with people you don’t know, or invite a single person to join in. There’s no need to RSVP, but it could be useful to know, for example, that someone wants to play a game of Scrabble at 4:30 pm so we can let others know. If only one person shows up, we’ll be happy to join in!
