Found a board game cafe in Portland with a whole wall of rulebooks you can borrow

Went to Mox Boarding House over the weekend and saw they have binders for every game, sorted by title. It saved our group a solid 20 minutes of setup on a new game. Does any other place do this?

Yeah, that binder system is a total game changer. @dixon.amy is right, they really set the standard. My local spot started doing the same thing after seeing how well it worked at Mox.

Oh, that's actually Mox's thing, they're the ones who started it.

Huh, that binder system sounds like a lifesaver. I just bring a cheat sheet I print off at home for our game nights, saves me digging through the box when the kids scatter the cards everywhere. Really does cut down on the arguing over who gets to read the rules first.
