About Chess Forum
Chess Forum combines a specialist game shop with a physical space associated with New York chess. Its online assortment is relevant to players buying practical equipment as well as shoppers looking for a decorative set or a gift.
Products and specialties
- Chess pieces, boards and complete sets
- Chess clocks and playing accessories
- Backgammon and other classic games
Online shopping
The Shopify catalog allows buyers to compare and order equipment online. A visually appealing set is not automatically the right playing set: board size, square dimensions and piece proportions should be considered together.
New York location
Chess Forum is at 219 Thompson Street in Greenwich Village, Manhattan. Contact the shop for current in-person activities and availability rather than treating the online catalog as an event schedule.
Before you order
- Confirm whether a listing includes pieces, a board or both.
- Match piece size to the board's square dimensions.
- Check clock features and the intended use of the equipment.
