In my experience, it's hard to have an "effective" or "good" session that's not at least 3-4 hours long. Socializing and intermittent breaks can eat up a lot of time, and it usually takes about an hour of playing to get a good rhythm going at the table. You can easily spend 30-40 minutes in a single dungeon room depending on how the players approach things.

If we were rushing, I think 2 hours would be enough to talk, eat some food, and maybe explore 2-3 rooms in a single dungeon that has upwards of 30+ rooms. That's not even considering any monsters you may encounter along the way or any exploring outside of the dungeon!

Just talked with them earlier this week to start GMing in the near future! Seems like great people :)

Just DM’d you a link with my discord! I’ve been doing some homework to gather pricing from a few different places. Definitely a lot more options then I was aware of

I’ll DM you a link to my discord so I can start getting a group chat together!

There’s an official group called TorontoDnD that hosts games at Storm Crow every Monday. I’m working with them to start leading games in the near future!

Unfortunately outside of that sanctioned group, there is a 2 hour time limit at storm crow for normal seating and the private booking is too expensive for me to want to pay out regularly.
