Game Point @ Bongo East

The first coffeehouse in East Nashville is now also home of the city’s first Board Game café.

Bongo East has partnered with Game Point Café, which means there is a curated game library of more than 400 classic, family, cooperative and strategic games for customers to play.  While playing, you are encouraged to have a drink from our extensive coffee menu, enjoy a local craft beer or fill up with a sandwich, salad or snack from our food menu. Throughout the day, we have Game Coaches on hand to help you learn your new favorite game.  There is also a retail section for you to take the fun home with you.   We have a robust selection of game titles priced competitively with online stores so that you can feel good spending your money locally while still getting a great game at a good price.  We can special order titles as well.

While playing a game at Game Point this month, be sure to have a steaming hot cup of our Coffee of the Month, Honduras Unwashed. From the Maroala region of Honduras, this coffee is a Bongo Premium Lot (meaning it is produced by one farmer instead of the entire coffee cooperative) and has notes of Strawberry and Dark Chocolate. It is also unwashed, meaning that the coffee is fermented out in the sun while still in the cherry instead of being pulped and fermented in holding tanks for two to three days. Being dried in the cherries imparts pronounced fruit notes, which you’ll be sure to notice when you try it out.

If you enjoy this offering, don’t forget you can purchase a retail bag right in our cafe. Our coffee of the month is always 10% off, and if you come in on a Tuesday, all bags are $2 off – a double bonus. Game on!

logo for Agricola night

In 2007, Uwe Rosenberg’s Agricola hit the market and suddenly running a subsistence farm was the new hot thing to do.  In it, players are a family starting out in a new farm – plant vegetables, raise livestock, have children, and then raise them to help work the fields — and above all make sure that everyone can be fed throughout the game.  For the past two decades, Agricola has been a popular game – consistently ranking in the top 50 games of all time.

The last Wednesday of the month, come on out and learn Agricola or just get in a game.  It’s a great chance to try a heavier game that you might not normally get to the table.

Unless otherwise noted, Game Point Cafe is open to the public
for gaming during our special events.
