Make a Day of It:
Start with food and drinks around Merrion Street, then settle in at Chance & Counters for a proper board game session. If you’re heading to the arena or catching a show nearby, it’s a great warm-up spot, as long as nobody suggests “one more game” five minutes before you need to leave.
The Tidy Take:
Tidy Guides recommends Chance & Counters for its massive game selection, friendly social vibe and brilliant city-centre location. It’s the kind of place where losing badly still counts as a good night, unless you’re the sore loser at the table.
