A Great HotSpot in Sudbury

I have to tell you about a awesome new spot in Sudbury, which has officially gotten my business on Friday and Saturday nights. It's Called: "Let's Scrabbalatte" in downtown Sudbury on Elm St.



It's owned and operated by two young brothers, Erik and Lawrie Van Beek, who are running a board game, card game, coffee house, all in one. My fiance wanted to go there, and honestly, while it's still in it's infancy, I can see it becoming a huge hit.
We checked it out tonight, and there were tons of board games to choose from, including card games and Charades style games, even the new hit "Cards Against Humanity."
For a modest $6 admission, you can sit with friends from 6pm until 2am, and play as many games as you want, while drinking a fancy latte, or an energy drink if your needing that extra bit of energy.

I was really happy to see that by the time we were ready to leave, the place had  a solid mix of about fifty people, including a large number of teens. The thought that this was beginning to replace the typical teenage hang outs of underage bars, at home binge drinking parties, and gang activity, was nice to see. The music was current, and everywhere you looked there were people trying a new game, laughing and hanging out with their friends.

So if you find yourself at home thinking of something to do, or just in the city looking for something cheap and easy to do, check it out. It's a nice end to an evening, and something new from the typical dinner and a movie.

Kudos go out to these two guys. This is a great new adventure to undertake.
