Who is Mayhem?
The name 'Mayhem' comes from James' Dungeons and Dragons character. To James, this character not only led to the forging of lifelong friendships but also showcased the powerful connections and unforgettable adventures that tabletop gaming can foster. In honor of those bonds and the spirit of adventure, we named our café after Mayhem.
​
Beyond the name, Mayhem will be the inspiration behind our mascot, who embodies the joy, community, and a touch of chaos that Mayhem's Bookstore and Board Game Café stands for, inviting everyone into a world where stories and strategies come alive.
Your adventure, our quest!
