Board games?

I remember a while back people used to meetup and play board games at Boloco.

Do these meetups still happen?

That's too bad. They don't seem to be doing too well (at least that's my impression, based on the fact that whenever I walk by, they look nearly empty). I've been there once, and I enjoyed it, but my dining-out budget is strained and they're not usually at the top of the list whenever I can eat out. I'm guessing that, with the economy, a lot of people are eating out less (at least that's what my close personal friends on CCN and MSNBC tell me). Bad time for a new restaurant!

Yeah - the niche they seem to fit for me is more like wanting a tasty, inexpensive lunch or dinner when we're low on groceries or on energy to
cook something, or have to grab lunch on our way through Davis Square.
But I wouldn't choose them for a special meal. I do appreciate that there's an option that serves a variety of simple American foods (ie, not just sandwiches but also turkey, mashed potatoes, meat loaf, vegetables, etc.)
A little cheaper and more cafeteria-style than Rosebud, but I suppose that spot has once again been filled with something similar to what you can find elsewhere in Davis.
