We are opening

We're pleased to announce that Tabletop Library will be for members this Thursday, August 27th.

Opening FAQ

What do you mean that it's open for "members"?

Eventually, anyone will be able to walk in off the street and get a tour or buy a game... but for the first week or so, we're going to keep the front door locked while we get our bearings.

If you want a tour during that first period, no problem, email us and we'll set it up.

When are you opening for non-members?

We are thinking it will ramp up like this:

• Tuesday, September 8th: Low-key open for everyone, i.e. we unlock the front door and people can come in and buy games.
• Saturday October 3rd: Grand Opening Weekend. This is when it’s really on — like, we’ll try to get Berkeleyside to write an article, hire one of those sign spinners to stand on the corner of Claremont & Ashby, etc.

OK got it. I'm a member. How do I book a table?

Either use the reservation form, or text our AI concierge at (510) 616-4555 (add that number to your contacts if you haven’t already).

You're also welcome to drop-in without a membership.

What events are coming up?

Events are on our homepage. Official events will be light for the first couple of weeks until the grand opening, but there should be at least a few member-hosted tables each day. We expect new events to pop up daily, so keep checking back.

I have a game I’m itching to play. Can you help me find other members?

Yes. Just book a table like normal and you’ll see that you can post it on the event calendar for other members to join. You can even make the reservation conditional on getting enough players and finding a time that works for everyone.
