So Many Games. Zero Setup Hassle.
Whether you’re a lifelong dice-slinger or just game-curious, the Games Haven Board Game Library is your personal playground. We’ve curated a good range of shelves full of board games for every mood. From quick laughs to epic brain-burners.
No need to own a collection (or figure out the rules alone). Just drop in, pay the daily fee, and dive into a table of fun.
Got questions? If our board game guru is in, they’ll get you sorted. Rule explainer, vibe matcher, chaos enabler — they’ll help you find the perfect game and teach you how to play it.
So bring your friends, bring your curiosity, or just bring yourself — the games are waiting.
£6 for a whole day of play. No pressure. All welcome.

Board Game Socials – Find Your Game Group
Welcome to Nottingham’s Board Game HQ, where meeples march, friendships are forged (and occasionally fractured), and cardboard turns into battleground, buffet, or absurd adventure.
At Games Haven, we’re all about that tabletop magic. The sudden betrayal in a co-op game. The silent stare-down during a tense Euro. The accidental chaos of someone misreading the rules. Whether you’re a strategist, party game lover, or just curious, there’s a place here for you.
Our shelves are packed with games for every style and skill level– from quick classics to deep-cut strategy beasts. And our Board Game Socials every Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday are the perfect time to jump in. Come alone or with friends. Learn something new or teach your favourite. It’s casual, welcoming, and built for good times.
Don’t know the rules? No worries. If one of our usuall oard game playing gurus are around, (Nice bunch) they’ll get you sorted and into the games fast.
There’s always a seat waiting. Just grab a day pass and dive in.
