Game night tips for Düsseldorf

A few things worth knowing before you work through Düsseldorf's board game cafés:

• Check the party packages at Brettspielbude. Birthdays and team events at game cafés are excellent. Book ahead — weekends sell out.
• End with a quick filler. A ten-minute card game after the big one sends everyone home happy. Ask the staff for the closer.
• Tip the games teachers. If someone spent twenty minutes teaching your table, that's service. Tip like it.
• Bring the right group. Game night lives or dies on the people. Four engaged players beat eight distracted ones.

Good to know

We searched about 40 km around Düsseldorf — that covers the town itself plus the surrounding communities you'd reasonably drive to. Listings come from OpenStreetMap, mapped by local volunteers, so a brand-new board game café in Düsseldorf can take a while to appear. For board game cafés we also seed from Foursquare's venue directory, since cafés are poorly tagged on the map. The 1 above are only as current as the community map. A board game café that's shut, or a new one nobody's added yet, gets fixed with a single OpenStreetMap edit.

We don't list cover charges or menus — those change. What we list is the where: real venues from community mapping and Foursquare, with no favourites.

If you run one of the 1 listed here and something's wrong — a closure, a move, new hours — the fix is the same: update the shop on OpenStreetMap and the correction flows through to this page on the next daily refresh.
