Ailie ChangMarch 22, 2017Check out the huge variety of chess sets! So beautiful. My favorites are the Egyptian ones.
ShalimarDecember 20, 2020Very 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!
Berk KapiciogluMay 30, 2014A 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.
Margot MazurNovember 13, 2014You 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.- Julia FreidlyAugust 8, 2015There are quality books and BEAUTIFUL chess sets. It's a nice, quiet place to sit and play

Zachary McCuneSeptember 15, 2013$5 per person buys you an hour of chess. Game on when the weather turns.

Make sure to ask how much a chess set costs, they are all or sale!- That militant asshole is in the chess shop, not the forum.
