Players of all levels and ages are welcome. Tables are available for speed chess, PlunderChess™, and bughouse. For players new to chess, instruction can be found in all aspects of the game including strategy, tactics, common openings, endgame themes, the use of a chess clock, and more.

Subway is a non-smoking establishment.

Remember what it feels like to be 'the new guy', and also how great it feels when an experienced player is willing to spend the time to help you. Someday you will be the experienced player and a 'new guy' will ask you the same favor. Help him the best that you can, and keep the fellowship of the game alive.  You too can be a ChessNut.
