Snakes and Lattes is a pair of board game cafes in Toronto, Canada, located at 600 Bloor Street West and 489 College Street.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Snakes and Lattes )〕 Guests pay a cover charge of $5 to play board games as long as they like, choosing from the cafes' collection of about 3,000 games.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Snakes and Lattes blog )〕 There is no wifi available at the cafes, as the focus is on playing games and socialising with friends. The cafes serves small food and beverage items including some draft beers. ==History== Snakes and Lattes was opened on August 30, 2010 by Aurélia Peynet and Ben Castanie,〔 at what is now known as their Snakes and Lattes Annex location. The couple had moved to Toronto from France four years earlier, and came up with the idea for Snakes and Lattes from a visit to a Chicago area game store in 2008.〔 Over the next two years, they slowly built up their sizable game collection to prepare for the 2010 opening.〔 As the cafe gained popularity it quickly outgrew its seating capacity. In 2011, the adjacent property was purchased and the wall between the two properties was demolished, adding roughly 2,000 square feet to the existing café and increasing capacity from 45 to 150 seats. In 2014, a sister location was announced, now called Snakes and Lattes College〔 in the space that was previously occupied by the Andy Poolhall bar. Later that year, Snakes and Lattes Annex introduced one of Toronto's first bitcoin ATMs, which has since disappeared.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bumblebeexchange.com/ )〕 Also in 2014, Snakes and Lattes became a sponsor of the Toronto International Film Festival, offering a board game concierge for interested visitors. In July 2015, ''The Globe and Mail'' reported that a sitcom, ''Snakes and Lattes: The Show'', would air starting in September as a fictionalized account of the cafe's early years. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Snakes and Lattes」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
