Questions About the Rhythm of the Room
Does the room run any special monthly events?
No — just the same seven games on rotation, week after week, all year.
Which nights suit a first visit best?
Monday or Wednesday — quieter floors and more time to ask questions.
Is the room busier at any particular time of year?
Race Round in September and Diggers and Dealers week in August both bring extra visitors through town.
Will there always be a seat for me?
Turn up on any open evening and the house dealer will find you one, even on the busiest Friday floor.
