Casual Chess Sundays

About Casual Chess Sundays

Looking for a relaxed way to spend your Sunday? Join us for Casual Chess Sundays, where the focus is on friendly games, cozy vibes, and good conversation.

Whether you're brand new to the game or a seasoned player who just wants a break from the pressure—this is your space. No rankings. No timers. Just open boards, warm drinks, and welcoming company.

We’ll have chess sets ready, comfy seating, and a menu of hot drinks and snacks to keep you fueled as you play, chat, or simply watch the pieces move.

Come solo or with a friend—everyone’s welcome. Stay for a game or the whole afternoon.

Because sometimes, the best moves are made over a mug of coffee.
