Buzzin' Meeples

Buzzin' Meeples is an independent board game venue located on Bury Old Road in Prestwich, offering a space for enthusiasts to play and rent from a library of hundreds of games. Established in August 2022, it aims to create a welcoming community hub for board game lovers.

The venue offers a selection of tables suitable for varying group sizes, from two to ten players, spread across a ground floor and basement area. Patrons will find six tables in all. Each table is equipped with cupholders to prevent spills and maximize playing space. The basement area offers a themed experience.

The atmosphere at Buzzin' Meeples is convivial and focused on gameplay. The gentle clatter of dice and rustling of cards fill the air as players immerse themselves in their chosen games. While not a café, Buzzin' Meeples offers a selection of cold drinks and snacks reminiscent of a "tuck shop," satisfying immediate cravings without interrupting gameplay.

A standout feature of Buzzin' Meeples is its extensive library of over 800 board games, with titles available for in-store play. Some games feature deluxe components for an enhanced playing experience. Moreover, the venue offers game rentals, allowing enthusiasts to continue the fun at home. Corkage is offered for those who would like to bring their own alcoholic beverages.

Buzzin' Meeples is located opposite the Heaton Park Metrolink station, making it easily accessible by public transport. Online booking is recommended due to the venue's limited table availability. Note that customers may not bring in their own food unless it is for a special dietary reason and has been agreed upon in advance.

Buzzin' Meeples is a fitting location for casual game nights, learn-to-play sessions, and organized events such as Dungeons & Dragons and other role-playing games.
