What if your dream job was owning a board game café?
Turn your love of games, people and great hospitality into a business of your own.
Chance & Counters is opening the door to franchise partners across the UK.
We’ve spent 10 years learning what makes a board game café thrive. Now we’re ready to share it.
Why Chance & Counters?
Chance & Counters is about creating places people genuinely love spending time in.
We build welcoming spaces, train brilliant teams and teach hundreds of thousands of games a year.
Our cafés are full of regulars, first dates, family catch-ups and “just one more game” nights.
Now we’re looking for franchise partners who want to build that kind of place in their city.
Is this you?
You don't need hospitality experience. You do need..
A decent head for business.
A love for people and community.
A willingness to learn.
A belief that work should actually be fun.
If this sounds like you, we should probably talk.
