The Glass Die - Reno

Sad that they got rid of the old tavern wooden tables. Poker tables are lame (we already have casinos in Reno). Love the games for sale section. One of the workers is rude about collecting the $6 sitting fee and we got loudly called out for having an inflatable club (poetry for Neanderthals game). While it’s understandable to not allow it since there can be broken glass. It felt like we were scolded from behind the bar while everyone in the place just looked at us. Pretty embarrassing. We’ll just host game nights at home from now on.

Friends invited us to play some games at The Glass Die. Didn't know much about the place, but we were up for it. We're so glad we did. While parking is a bit of a challenge, it was well worth the extra walk. When we got there the array of choices of what game to play is a bit overwhelming. I had no idea that there were so many board games in the world, much less in one place. Add to the atmosphere of tables and games surrounding you, they have a well stocked bar with lots of choices of beer, coffee, and tea. The tables are well maintained and suited for enjoying conversations with friends as well as playing a game or two. The staff was ever so helpful and pleasant. Makes for a fun time. My only quibble is that the games are not subdivided by the type of games, just the number of people who can play. Unless you're familiar with them, you spend a lot of time figuring out what to choose. Maybe a menu would help us neophytes.
