Mox Boarding House, the tabletop game store and dining experience that started in Seattle, is expanding to Arizona with a new location opening in the city of Chandler next week.

Started in 2011, Mox has locations in Seattle’s Ballard neighborhood, Bellevue, Wash., and Portland. Gaming enthusiasts of all skill levels can connect over board games and events, drinks and food, and a selection of titles available to play for free and/or purchase.

The location in Chandler, at 1371 N. Alma School Road, has been in the works since 2021 and will feature a restaurant with room for 86 guests and an event hall that accommodates up to 64 people.

Mox is planning a grand opening weekend celebration Sept. 20-22, with a ribbon cutting ceremony featuring Chandler’s mayor, games and activities, in-store promotions and discounts, and more. The event will also feature a pre-release for “Duskmourn,” a new “Magic: The Gathering” expansion.
