Hi! This meetup is for NYC Singles age 21-35 who'd enjoy playing board games over drinks after work and meeting fun new friends. We meet every two weeks on Tuesday Nights 6PM-10PM upstairs at the Downtown Galway Hooker Pub (The Jameson Room)  (It's NOT THAT KIND OF BAR! A Galway Hooker is a BOAT silly!) (133 7th Ave South between Charles St. & 10th Street, West Village, NY) This great Irish pub has amazing bar food and has extended their happy hour for our group to 10PM. ($4 All Drafts, Well d …

The Has-Bros (alternatively Has-Brats for the female persuasion) first joined together in April 2012 to promote social bonding over a varied selection of board games, beer and warm fuzzy feelings. They meet once (or sometimes twice) a month to commence in merry-making with a bit of competition and strategy thrown in. Be a Has-Bro. Join today.

We play Settlers of Catan and all its exapnsions.  Seasoned players as well as those new to the game are welcome. Besides the basic game, our group owns and plays many of the expansion sets. Anybody who enjoys board games should come and join our group. We play a mix of traditional (3-4 player) or expansion (5-6 player) Settlers as well as Knights & Cities and/or Seafarers. Recently, we have been trying the new Traders and Barbarians expansion games like Fishermen and Barbarian Attack. Newbies a …

8 Bit and Up Video Games has gone Zero Bit! We are interested in working together with gamers in New York City to help us build a community in the East Village and Lower East Side. Board and card gamers looking for a place to play should feel free to contact us.

This group is designed to match tabletop game designers with playtesters. The idea is that everyone wins when we play each others prototypes and share our experience. You don't have to be a designer to join. You just have to want to be part of a community that helps games get made.

There are so few places where we as gay men, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgenders can meet each other in person outside of bars.  We've found that it's much easier to meet friends and partners in an environment that is fun doing an activity that isn't focused on meeting new people.  You can just sit down with us and play an old favorite game or learn a new one.  We tend toward strategy games, but word games and party games are welcome.

Come one, come all! Join our family of fierce spades players! Not only do we play spades, but we play all games! You bring it, we'll play it! Great convo, cheap happy hour drinks, cheap food also comes along with being a member. Can't wait to meet ya! Btw, we host at some of the nicest and laid back venues in NYC so come experience NYC with us!

This is a group where we will all get together and play board games. I have found there are several board game communities on here, but none involve our favorite social lubricant, alcohol! My hope is to get together and play silly games in a bar. I will bring a couple of games (feel free to bring your own) but this won't be real "gamer" territory. No D&D, etc. and we will figure out by vote one or two to play as a group. I find people make friends (or more) well when they are having a good …

This is a group for those who like games based on trivia. Games to be played include Trivial Pursuit (natch), Bezzerwizzer, Blast From The Past, Chronology, Facts in Five, The Logo Game, Smart Ass, 20 Questions, Wits and Wagers, You Must Be An Idiot and more. Different games will be played at each meetup, and there's over 30 games. Meetups will take place in Manhattan on weekends, at least twice a month, more often if the group catches on. IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ - while these games are mostly e …

Meet in Brooklyn. Play board games. Drink craft beer. :)

We are throwing our first gaming night event. On April 19 come by and bring any friends you want. We are going to have different board and group games, liquor and food. There is a $5 door fee but if you bring a friend they will get in for free. It's something different than the club and bar where you can drink and meet people. The environment will be high energy but it will be easy to meet a new friend by sitting down and playing your favorite games. We will have group games and individual games …

This group meets in Manhattan on weekends to play board games and card games. The emphasis is on party games more than Eurogames and we are happy to teach games to newcomers. Games played include Apples to Apples, Scattergories, Uno, and many others. A list of games played is in the Discussions section.  Different games are played at each meetup. Both singles and couples are welcome. Adults of all ages are welcome. Meetups are free and we often meet in pubs and restaurants.

The featured game for most of this group's events is: SCRABBLE brand crossword game. SCRABBLE is a trademark of Hasbro in the United States and Canada. The No-Drama Crossword Game Club is not affiliated with Hasbro, Inc. or any of its affiliates. Hasbro, Inc. does not sponsor, and has not endorsed, this club or any of its events. [End of disclaimer-LOL!] Yes, THAT game! Do you love to make words, score points and have fun? Well, this group is NOT about heavy-handed management, long-winded lectur …

Our purpose is to organize a regular game night hosted either in a sports/game bar like Fat Cat's or Dive 75, or any other comfortable setting where we can play some games. If you've seen the movie "The Breakup", you know what we mean. Couples with or without kids are welcome. Board games: Outburst, Monopoly, Jenga, Cranium, Scrabble, Risk and many other games and activities. Word games, puzzle games and even Rock Band are in our repertoire. LOL Alert: Laughing out loud is often associated with …

I am taking over this meetup since the former organizer is not doing it any more. I am definitely open to adding co-organizers, so please let me know if you want to do that. And/or if you can host an event at your place or a venue that you know and like. I am asking for $1 from everyone when they come to a meetup event to help with the cost of having this meetup site - it's $12/month so 2 meetups per month with 6 people at each should do it. I am not trying to make $ but don't really want to cov …

This group is for social folk in the city who love the kind of games played in bars. For people who recognize that the bar can be a relaxed place to meet people while having fun over drinks.  And, obviously, for folks 21+. NYC Social Sports Club offers full 7-week seasons of Bowling, Team Trivia, Euchre, & Spades. And since 2004, players of our other leagues (including Kickball, Flag Football, Volleyball, Ultimate Frisbee, Dodgeball, and Soccer) have enjoyed lively games at the bar after thei …

Apples to Apples, Scrabble, Uno, Bullsh!t, anything is game in this meetup! I will be on the hunt for the best drink specials and happy hours in Astoria to set up camp and gather fellow boozy boardgamers for some laughter and friendly competition! It should be fun so....who's game??

This is a group for anyone interested in having a few pints of Brew and settling scores over the Classic board game of RISK! Come one, come all for some strategy, laughs, and beer!!

Would you enjoy having a circle of friends that share an interest in cards, possibly unlike your other friends? This group is intended to bring back the simpler times, when a night of cards/cheating/inevitable debauchery could make for a rad time! Please join, it will be good fun! This is specifically to learn and play the card game of hearts. All levels and anyone interested is welcome.  It is easy to learn - and more fun to play with people (if you play on the computer ;.)) Disclaimer: The gro …

Nyeek is a social get together for board game enthusiasts in the New York City area. If that sounds kind of geeky let me assure you that it absolutely is. We play all types of board games (abstract, party, thematic), but we tend to lean towards Euro Games. Games that usually have simple rules, relatively short playing times, and no player elimination, so they’re pretty accessible to newcomers. If you want to know more feel free to check out the (still being written) FAQ, but in a nutshell we're …

We are dedicated to playing board and card games and having fun. Games vary from classics like: Monopoly or Scrabble to Card based games like: Hearts or Euchre to german style games like: Carcassonne or Settlers to Wargaming ones like: Risk, Diplomacy, Axis and Allies, depending on who brought what and what people want to play.

Welcome to the NY Mostly Go Club! The "Mostly" is there since it's fun to do other things besides Go once in a while. For example, dinner or drinks after a tough tournament, a picnic with Go boards under blooming cherry trees in spring, whatever fun things we can think of. We'd love to meet other people who are interested in the game of igo/weiqi/baduk in the NYC area. Don't know how to play but saw it on some TV show or something and want to see what the game is about? We also host NYAMIGO Beg …

So you live in Brooklyn*, the hippest, trendiest, judge-a-book-by-its cover part of the Country. And you are also a nerd. In this group, you can let your NERD! colors shine like Gandalf's light. You can be a movie nerd, a comic nerd, a food nerd, a ZOMBIE nerd....you can even be Nate Silver. Hell, you can even be a part-time nerd. This group is non-judgmental to all nerdome. We will have meet and greets, watch B horror films, take restaurant suggestions from the food nerds, play board games...lo …

I decided to start this group because I love playing Scrabble while tipsy, but no one I know likes to play at all. I'm fairly competitive at the game, but amateur players are welcome. I envision having different levels of games going on. Also, players of other board games are welcome, for instance Boggle-afficianados. Members are encouraged to bring their own games if they have them, as I only have 2 Scrabble boards, 1 Othello board and a set of Banagrams. I think maybe I have Checkers, too, som …

Welcome to the New York City Monopoly Meetup Group! I am Organizer of 2 other Monopoly Meetup Groups, The DC Maryland Virginia Metro Area Monopoly Meetup Group and The Boston Monopoly Meetup Group. I have been playing Monopoly since I was a child and started collecting Monopoly Games in the 1980's. I currently have over 300 different sets from all over the world (different countries, different cities, themed editions, you name it). My goal is to share my love of this great game with others. I of …
