What is the Stay & Play Game Library?
One of the things that makes The Gnoshery special is our Stay & Play Game Library. We’ve built a collection of more than 100 board and card games that our guests are welcome to enjoy right here in the shop. Our hope is that when you walk through the door, you feel like you’ve found a place where you can slow down for a while—grab a drink, share a meal, pull a game off the shelf, and spend time with the people around you.

Etiquette
Access to the library is simple. As long as you’ve made any purchase in the store, you’re welcome to enjoy the games. That purchase can be anything—from a cup of coffee or a grilled sandwich to a pack of cards or a new set of dice. Once you’ve made a purchase, the entire library is open for you to browse. Pick a game that catches your eye, bring it to your table, and stay awhile.
Because the library is shared by everyone who visits, we ask our guests to help us take care of the games so others can enjoy them too. Please handle the games with care, keep the pieces together, and return them to their proper place on the shelf when you’re finished. A little care goes a long way in keeping the collection complete and ready for the next group to enjoy.
Why We Created It
Because the library is shared by everyone who visits, we just ask that you help us take care of the games. Please handle them with care, keep all the pieces together, and return them to the correct spot on the shelf when you’re finished so the next group can easily find them. Our community has been wonderful about helping keep the collection in great shape, and we truly appreciate it. 
We created the Stay & Play Library because we believe games bring people together in a way that’s hard to replace. In a world that moves fast and revolves around screens, a board game invites people to sit down, laugh, compete, cooperate, and simply enjoy being together. Our goal has always been to create a welcoming place where friends can gather, families can make memories, and people can take a break from the rush of everyday life. So grab a seat, pick a game, and stay awhile. 🎲
