Sunday Chess/shogi (and Go!) - Central Phoenix

For more than two years now, we've been faithfully gathering every Sunday at this cozy coffee spot! It boasts a laid-back atmosphere, complete with spacious tables perfect for gaming side by side. We've managed to keep around half a dozen chess sets and a Go board on hand, plus there's a sweet perk for anyone with an active US Chess membership: 10% off all menu items!

Chances are, you'll find players matched perfectly to your skill level. We've got regulars with ratings over 1600, as well as a few beginners under 500, and plenty in between. Whether it's your first visit or your hundredth, you'll be welcomed like an old friend. Each week, there's a mix of players just getting started and others gladly sharing tips and strategies.

And if Go is your game, you're in luck! We've got a growing community of Go players here, with skill levels spanning the spectrum.
Feel free to drop in whenever suits you best and do whatever feels right: watch, play, learn, or even snack on a chess piece (from your own set, of course).
