We're a board game café—with scratch food (Latin + Southern comfort fusion), craft cocktails, and thoughtful service at the core, plus 500+ games and gametenders to teach you the rules, if you’re in the mood to play. Just like at Relish, we are known for our Southern Comfort focus on craft foods and craft cocktails with a “new Southern” twist. And there are two big twists at the Kitchen Table--fi
rst, the food is a Latin + Southern Fusion. It’s the best of both worlds: bold and bright with plenty of spice, but still rich, playful, soulful, and all about comfort. We’re talking tacos cozying up next to shrimp and grits, beignets coated churro-style in cinnamon sugar, unconventional burritos like our philly cheesesteak topped with queso, and hush puppies with a jalapeño kick. It’s a mash-up, sure—but one that feels like it was meant to be. And the second is that we are also a board game café with 500+ GAMES plus fabulous GAMETENDERS to help you choose, learn, and play any one you like. We have a library of over 500 games that we have been sacrificing ourselves to learn to play—including the old standbys like Scrabble, Backgammon, and Sorry to the newest releases like Cascadia, Azul, Century Spice Road, Wingspan/Wyrmspan, and deeper dives like Scythe or Terraforming Mars. Beginning in 2025, we also host many Mahjong events--both open play and beginner lession. If Relish is our "main dining room", then we consider this expansion space as our smaller more intimate “kitchen table”. We love the images that a kitchen table invokes. As the heart of the home it is the place where meals and memories are made and where you invite close family and friends to cozy and intimate gatherings. So—check out our menus at kitchentableraleigh.com —and come on out to PLAY with us!!
