SUMMARY:Play 500+ Board Games
DESCRIPTION:Our library has over 500 board games\, both classic and modern.\n–Want to keep it simple with something like Monopoly or Jenga? We’ve got you covered. What something more modern like Catan or Ticket to ride? We’ve got those too. Want something brand spankin’ new you can’t even buy in the stores yet? WE’VE GOT THOSE TOO.\n–\nGame passes are $5/person for 2 hours and are first come first served for tables. We have lots of tools to help you choose a game (see our game picker linked below\,) learn a game without actually reading the rules (most games are stickered with a QR code that takes you to a how to play video….for those of you that hate reading rulebooks) or you can even bring in your own game/DND group/etc. Same game pass pricing applies.\n–PLUS we have snacks\, drinks\, alcohol\, cats (in their separate lounge but viewable from the cafe side through large windows) and all the good vibes.\n20% of the profits from our food\, drink and merch sales go back to our partner rescues. Hang out. Buy stuff. Help cats.\n–\nCheck out our full game list here:https://scratchingpostcu.com/game-table-reservations/\n–\nSee what our Game Picker suggests for you here: https://gamepicker.scratchingpostcu.com/

SUMMARY:TTRPG Night w/Professional Game Master Persephone Lovell
DESCRIPTION:About this Event:\nDive into a world of adventure through the classic midwestern art of tabletop role-playing games! Sessions are entirely private\, hosted in the cafe side of the Scratching Post\, and we do mean entirely private: the cafe will be closed to everyone but cafe staff\, and your group!  \n  \nSessions will last approximately four hours\, with an ideal group being 3-6 players. However\, the game system played is extremely flexible; our GM is fluent in a wide assortment of popular role-playing games\, and is willing to work with you to provide your ideal experience!  \n  \nQuestions? Feel free to email our GM at persephonelovell44@gmail.com  \n  \nSee you at the table! \n \nAbout the Host:\nPersephone Lovell (Seph for short) is a notorious gremlin\, with a skillset befitting a gremlin. Cursed with a lifelong interest in storytelling\, she’s been running (and occasionally making) role-playing games for over ten years! Moreover\, Seph is a classically trained actor\, who once flew very far away to study at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in Los Angeles\, and has appeared in countless independent theater productions and film projects! \nWhen not GMing\, you can usually find Seph with a blunt sword in her hand at Tempered Mettle Historical Fencing\, or pensively critiquing the last video game she played. Ask her about giant robots if you have a free couple of eternities! \n  \nReservations for this private event need to be made at least 48 hours in advance. We are closed on Mondays so your group will have the cafe to themselves.\nEmail info@scratchingpostcafe.com with the date you are interested in (Monday from 6-10) and we will send over the booking info!

SUMMARY:TTRPG Night w/Professional Game Master Persephone Lovell
DESCRIPTION:About this Event:\nDive into a world of adventure through the classic midwestern art of tabletop role-playing games! Sessions are entirely private\, hosted in the cafe side of the Scratching Post\, and we do mean entirely private: the cafe will be closed to everyone but cafe staff\, and your group!  \n  \nSessions will last approximately four hours\, with an ideal group being 3-6 players. However\, the game system played is extremely flexible; our GM is fluent in a wide assortment of popular role-playing games\, and is willing to work with you to provide your ideal experience!  \n  \nQuestions? Feel free to email our GM at persephonelovell44@gmail.com  \n  \nSee you at the table! \n \nAbout the Host:\nPersephone Lovell (Seph for short) is a notorious gremlin\, with a skillset befitting a gremlin. Cursed with a lifelong interest in storytelling\, she’s been running (and occasionally making) role-playing games for over ten years! Moreover\, Seph is a classically trained actor\, who once flew very far away to study at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in Los Angeles\, and has appeared in countless independent theater productions and film projects! \nWhen not GMing\, you can usually find Seph with a blunt sword in her hand at Tempered Mettle Historical Fencing\, or pensively critiquing the last video game she played. Ask her about giant robots if you have a free couple of eternities! \n  \nReservations for this private event need to be made at least 48 hours in advance. We are closed on Mondays so your group will have the cafe to themselves.\nEmail info@scratchingpostcafe.com with the date you are interested in (Monday from 6-10) and we will send over the booking info!

SUMMARY:Board Game Concierge Night - Learn to Play Stardew Valley
DESCRIPTION:What You Get\nIn November our board game concierge is teaching a cozy farming game about building a farm and friendships\, Stardew Valley! \nStardew Valley is a beloved video game that now has a board game adaptation.  Stardew Valley: The Board Game gives you the same warm and fuzzy vibes the video game does.  Harvest crops\, take care of livestock\, build your reputation with your new friends in the town of Stardew Valley. \nSome modern board game experience is necessary.  We will have the game setup when you arrive\, do a full teach of the rules and answer any questions along the way\, but these are much more complex games that will likely be difficult for someone brand new to the hobby. \nTicket includes full setup/teach/questions answered for the duration of the game\, your game pass for the entire day\, one free drink and a button for completing the concierge game!  You should expect any concierge game to take a minimum of 2 hours to complete. \nMore Info\nOne ticket per person. \nIt is always helpful to arrive 10-15 minutes early to park\, get your drink/snacks and get settled at your table.  Parking info can be found here. \nIf you love Stardew Valley: The Board Game\, we also will have copies for purchase.  We donate 20% of the profits from our food\, drink and merch sales back to our partner non-profit rescues\, so buying a game from us levels up your good vibes. 😎 \nOctober Concierge Game Schedule\nTickets for each night sold separately \n\nSunday\, Oct 12 – Inferno\nSunday\, Oct 26 – Inferno\n\nNovember Concierge Game Schedule\nTickets for each night sold separately \n\nSunday\, Nov 9 – Stardew Valley: The Board Game – SOLD OUT\nSunday\, Nov 16 – Stardew Valley: The Board Game – EXTRA DATE JUST ADDED!\nSunday\, Nov 23 – Stardew Valley: The Board Game – SOLD OUT\n\nDecember Concierge Game Schedule\nTickets for each night sold separately \n\nSunday\, Dec 7 – Cosmic Frog\nSunday\, Dec 21 – Cosmic Frog\n\n \n\n\nPowered by SimpleTix

SUMMARY:Play with 20+ Adoptable Cats!
DESCRIPTION:Spend 50 minutes in our cat lounges with 20+ adoptable cats. Your reservation not only helps to cover the cost of their care\, but it also helps to socialize them\, even if you aren’t looking to adopt. Thank you!\n–\nAll of our cats come from local non-profit rescues and 100% of their adoption fee goes to the originating rescue. They are all spayed/neutered\, microchipped\, vaccinated and tested for many common pathogens.\n–\nAdvance reservations are the only way to guarantee time in the lounge. We welcome walk-ins as long as there is space\, but if the hour is sold out\, it may be a while before the next available lounge time.\n–\nMAKE A RESERVATION!\n\n\n \n\n\nPowered by SimpleTix
