Must-Have Games Room Items for Our Long Canadian Winters
Unfortunately, our time outside is limited in Canada. Once winter arrives, we tend to stay indoors. To avoid boredom during a long, cold winter, you can always turn to a fun winter games room. Deck your game room out with these must-have items, and you’ll have a much more exciting (or at least bearable) winter.
1. A Billiards Table
A classic. Playing pool is the perfect winter pastime. It’s a competitive game in that you can really sharpen your skills, but it’s also easy for beginners to play too. Our billiard tables are made from premium materials and come in a range of styles, so they are an essential addition to any games room.
2. Comfortable Seating
You might be tempted to put a plastic patio set or other cheap seating in your games room, but that isn’t the best idea for winter. You’ll be spending a lot of time in this small space, so you want it to be comfortable and also warm. Choose fabric or leather seating and add throws and pillows for maximum comfort.

3. Shuffleboard
If you have a long games room, you should consider adding a shuffleboard. Shuffleboard is a fun game that attracts people of all ages. We offer these boards in a range of styles, so you can find one that works with your space.

4. Bar and Stools
Alcohol can be as warm and comforting in winter as it is cool and refreshing in summer. Every winter games room should have a dedicated bar and comfortable stools. Also, consider a cabinet to keep your winter-themed drink ingredients nearby.
Top OHL tip: Serve these winter favourites at your bar:
- Mexican hot chocolate: This spicy drink, with Patrida Añejo and cinnamon, is sure to warm up your guests.
- Winter spiced old-fashioned: Try this old-fashioned with winter-spiced simple syrup and cinnamon for a Christmas-inspired kick.
- Rum eggnog: Add simple syrup, an egg and nutmeg to rum and port wine to make this creamy winter treat.
5. Poker Table
Heat things up with a poker table in your game room. Poker can be a thrilling game, and many people love learning to read other people’s tells.
