Board game cafe gets huge boost of more than 100 games from generous donor
A Telford board game cafe has received a major donation to add more than 100 extra games to its collection.
The Boardroom Gaming Cafe in Wellington has seen a generous donation of 105 games from a single person – bringing their tally of in-house games to 500.
Steve Briscoe, a local gaming enthusiast, wanted to downsize his considerable board game collection and was looking for a venue where he knew the games would be loved and played with.
After a quick search online he discovered the Boardroom Gaming Cafe.
“We received a phone call from a very friendly gentleman looking to donate some games to our collection,” said Jon Drew, owner of the Boardroom. “We were expecting maybe two or three games like previous donations from our supportive community - so imagine our surprise when Steve offered us over 100 games."
Cafe co-owner Jenni Drew added: “We have been so lucky to have developed such a supportive community around us in the past 11 months we’ve been open. Steve didn’t want anything in return other than to know his games are being loved, so in celebration of his amazing contribution and our one-year anniversary, we are offering free play sessions from March 6 to 10.”
The Boardroom Gaming Cafe opened its doors to the public in March 2022 and offers a wide selection of food and drink catering to all needs as well as a pay to play system, allowing access to the large board game library for just a small charge.
