Covid-19 Update
Just like you, we have been watching small (and large) businesses closing up, or at least altering their store hours and services. As a small business, we totally get it, and day-by-day we are trying to make critical decisions which are difficult to make.
Today we are announcing a new decision. It may last for a little while, it may be as temporary as some of the others. We are going to give this a try, read the response and respond in kind.
First, for the next little while Mancala Monk will be CLOSED Mondays-Wednesdays and OPEN only during these hours:
Thursdays 4-9pm
Fridays Noon-9pm
Saturdays Noon-9pm
Sundays Noon-9pm
Second, we are limiting our services to Retail Sales as well as Food & Drink Take-out, with the addition of a new service, Board Game Rentals. This means that we will not be inviting customers in to play Board Games in groups, for the time being. We will instead be renting out Board Games. For details, please see the Board Game Rentals Tab on this website.
The main thing thing we would like to say is this: This is only temporary. It is our attempt to help mitigate against the spread of Covid-19, to help encourage the public to practice responsible social distancing and to help flatten the curve of this outbreak. We may, in the future, shut the doors completely, but we would like to give this a try first, to continue to help provide our beloved #hamont with the joy of Board Games, and some snacks and drinks along with it. The owner, Matt - many of you know me personally by now - will be alone in the store for this purpose, Thursday-Sunday. Come on by for a quick visit, buy a delicious Latte-to-go to help support a small business, and maybe leave with a Board Game or two, so that you have something fun to play with loved ones at home, during this isolating moment in time.
We plan to get back to business as usual as soon as possible.
