4 - Where would you host a first game?

Someplace nice.

I’d like a room with a biggish table, comfortable chairs, access to facilities and snacks.

Student unions often have great rooms if you’re in a university or college group, and if not there may be classrooms available. One room to a group is ideal for noise levels. For school-age groups, a classroom or library?

Game stores and other dedicated gaming spaces can be great if available. Pubs are a popular choice for off-campus game groups as social spaces which might have back rooms you can book in the evenings, but often are or feel like 18+ spaces. Cafes don’t have such spaces, so mostly good for weekends. 

Gaming outside depends on the weather.

And I’ve been running games online for two years now and while it’s great in many ways, not least having a player currently who’s on another continent, I do miss the energy of the table.
