Why play Chess?
Chess is much more than moving wooden pieces on a checkered board. It is a mental workout that sharpens your focus, improves your memory, and trains you to think several steps ahead. Every single game is a brand-new puzzle with infinite possibilities. No two games played in human history are completely alike.
Here at Boobooks chess players of all ages and all abilities, from beginners to competive players gather here every Saturday from 10.30am on.
Have a drink from our cafe and something to eat to keep up your strength and mental focus while challenging an opponent!
It is free and a great way to get out and meet other people
