Queen & Rook Game Cafe

Thank you Annemarie Dooling of Eater Philly for including Queen & Rook in your newest roundup of Philly’s best kid-friendly restaurants! We have plenty of games and good eats for the entire family! Read it at the LINK in the comments; reservations via Resy.

It’s true - we’re opening a second location in Fairmount!

Our second location will feature an extensive board game library, full bar, and restaurant service like our flagship South Street location. Instead of stepping into the past, this new location will celebrate futuristic fantasy and design, aligning with our mission of creating welcoming spaces centered around gaming, community, and connection.✨🤖

We’re thrilled to open a new set of doors to Philadelphia’s gaming community. 🚪🎮🎱🎲 We look forward to continuing to support locally-owned gaming spaces, fostering connection, creativity, and optimism for the future!
