Check out the huge variety of chess sets ! So beautiful. My favorites are the Egyptian ones.
Very cool spot with literature, equipment and all types of chess , checkers and backgammon boards. You can also mix and boards and pieces for a custom set. Highly recommended!
A decades old chess store that was originally owned by a Russian grandmaster. Great for hanging out with chess enthusiasts, buying chess pieces, or learning how to play from world-class players .
You can bargain with the guys. The stuff in the window is their priciest and most awesome, but they have behind the scenes cheaper boards as well .
There are quality books and BEAUTIFUL chess sets . It's a nice, quiet place to sit and play
What a magic place! Highly recommended

$5 per person buys you an hour of chess . Game on when the weather turns.
Play Eric. Older guy. He doesn't play book openings, has never played tournaments, but is probably a solid 1800+ blitz player .
Cooler than a speak easy
Definitely worth checking out for its old-school charm and rivalry with the other chess establishments on Thompson Street. Read more
