Thirsty Dice is a laid-back board game café in Fairmount offering over 800 games, tasty comfort food, and a solid menu of cocktails and milkshakes, making it a great spot for friends and family to unwind and battle it out over games.
"There are plenty of bars with pool tables, darts, and everything a coordinated person needs to prove they lettered in something during high school. It’s only fair that people with iffy hand-eye coordination get a spot to gloat about how they kept their “x” in Scrabble to destroy you. That’s where Fairmount’s Thirsty Dice comes in. Although it’s an all-day cafe, they have a full bar serving up classic cocktails, beers on tap, and even some boozy milkshakes. Whichever drink you choose, pair it with an order of the crunchy garlic parm wings and shrimp tacos with a cheesy elote breading before you hit the Monopoly board. There are over 80 games to choose from, so you’ll have plenty of options when you grab a comfortable spot in the corner and plan your night of domination." - candis mclean

The food and drink menu caters to everyone’s tastes, offering a mix of comforting appetizers, mains, and three different variations of mac and cheese. Its beverage list includes ‘light’ (non-alcoholic) versions of its most popular cocktails, such as the blackjack light—a twist on a moscow mule with ginger beer and black currant syrup—and the strawberry basil light, its take on a spritz made with lemon-lime soda, basil syrup, and strawberries." - George Banks-Weston
