Cafés and bars with chess in Vilnius 3
More about this list
Chess in Vilnius bars is the work of the city club rather than of the bars themselves. At Užupio kavinė, Užupio gatvė 2, the Tuesday blitz begins at 19:00 and runs eleven rounds at three minutes plus two seconds a move; the café’s own site does not mention chess, so the entry rests on the club’s calendar and the tournament server.
Rūsio Aidai, a bar on Savičiaus gatvė, has the club’s Monday evenings from 19:00: no tournament, no fee, and a host who also teaches. Before that the Monday games were held in the Dialogai food court of the Europa shopping centre, where a page with no date invites beginners from 18:00 to 20:00; nothing newer shows them still running there, so that entry stays unconfirmed.
