Session Zero · before the table is built

The Expedition Company

A tabletop gaming venue and bar coming to Richmond's West End.

Employee Dungeon Masters running scheduled games by the seat. Private rooms for your own table. Summer camps and after-school programs for kids. Team-building for the office down the road. A proper bar — The Long Rest — carrying the evening. Before any of it is built, we want to know one thing: would you actually come? This page is how we find out — and it's the same page we're showing the people helping us finance it.

Target grand open: June 2028 Henrico County, West End Session seats from $20 Summer camp from $375/wk
A dark wood gaming table with a recessed center screen for displaying maps, miniatures set out mid-session, and six chairs with gold cushions around it.
Built by hand, not rendered This is the actual screen-inset table design — built at home — that every room in the venue is modeled on.
Three ways in

Tell us which seat is yours

No payment today, no obligation — just a real signal. The more specific you can be, the better we can plan the room you'll actually sit in. We only use what you send to follow up about The Expedition Company.

Join the table

General interest — weekly games, DMing, membership, or just the bar.
Founding members lock in first-year pricing once the lease signs.

Reserve a camp seat

Summer camp, Jun–Aug. First year's camps are the single biggest thing we need to get right.
This isn't a payment. If the numbers hold up, we'll follow up to collect a fully refundable $25 deposit.

Bring your guild

Team-building, offsites, holiday parties — we run the game so your team talks to each other.
We'll follow up with pricing and a date before any space exists.
Where we stand

The numbers that tell us whether to build

We set these targets before we started collecting — see the full reasoning in the project's Risk Register. Clearing them is what turns this from a plan into a lease.
