A Thursday board game night at Hiver's taproom on the Bermondsey Beer Mile, a few minutes from London Bridge. There's a spread of games from light party stuff to deeper strategy, an experienced host teaching, and solo players are welcome. Upstairs there's usually a separate game of Blood on the Clocktower with limited spaces.
Dulwich Board Games plays every Tuesday at The Plough at the top of Lordship Lane. It's a good one if you like heavier games: recent tables have included Brass Birmingham, Eclipse, Hansa Teutonica and Inis, alongside lighter stuff like Heat, Flamme Rouge and Skull King. Members bring the games, and you can park at the pub for free if you validate at the bar.
