This place is great to play chess with other people with the same passion regardless of your chess level. StrangerChess was one of my highlights when I visited Berlin.

Minik N.

A nice community run by a dedicated host, who makes it possible to play chess EVERY DAY and meet interesting people.

I went with a friend and we had so much fun! We met so many new people, those who had come for the event, but also passer-bys who stopped to chat and play.
