Entry requirments and cost
We take reservations, walk-ins, groups, and we are also kid-friendly. A reservation is recommended to guarantee a table. To keep our business sustainable, we apply our entrance fees at all times.
Children under 14 must be accompanied by an adult, so we are unable to take bookings for children only.
Private Hire Rooms
Along with our open areas, we have a dedicated room for large scale strategy, which is available to rent out for as long as you need.
We also have a dedicated, private function room to rent, kitted out with a large TV, dynamic LED lighting, and wall mounted speakers so your games can really come alive! Alongside this we can contact a DM for you to hire to run a DnD session.
The private function room and upper level of the café can also serve for group meetings of any nature. Prices vary based on player count and day (but will tend to be between £40-£90) so please contact us to find out more.
Parking
There is limited 2hr on street parking available in the general vicinity of the cafe. Restrictions apply 8am-6pm Mon-Sat. Please read the signs before you park! There are also public car parks a few minutes walk away for longer stays such as Ordnance Road, Kings Park Road, Compton Walk or Bevois Valley Road.
Public transport
We can also be accessed by bus. The U6C, U6H and the 20 running in both directions stop at Denzil avenue, right in front of our door. The 1, 2, U1C, U1A, U2C, U2B also all stop at law courts, only a 5 minute walk away.
Accessibility
Our building is wheelchair accessible, with a disabled toilet and a ramp for the 1 step in the building. Also the building is well lit and normally a comfortable talking level, however this may be increased during big events.
We want to be as accessible as possible so if you have any questions please contact us.
