Another place not directly in the valley or in LA has opened up for gaming, card games and board games. Soon the Meetup and Reddit events will be piling up. Until then, enjoy board games with pie and coffee.
Game Haus Cafe has their list of games up on their site, so you don't have to bring your own stuff, unless you want to.

Let's hope their menu expands over time, they do have some sandwiches with plays on current game names.
