Chain Puzzle: Tabletop Games #03 - Down and out in London

_{This is the third Chain Puzzle in the Tabletop Games series, in which all puzzles are themed around board games, card games, tile games, and the like. The answer to this puzzle is a thematic word or phrase. The solver whose answer is awarded the green checkmark has first refusal on the opportunity to create the next puzzle in the series, which must somehow incorporate the answer to this puzzle somewhere within its construction. The solver is under no obligation to create the next puzzle – in the event that the solver does not wish to take up this opportunity, the puzzle’s setter may take up the offer of a willing substitute setter or choose to continue the chain themselves.}

The weekly neighbourhood games night had come around again quite quickly, and I found myself once more at my friend’s house and wondering what we would be playing that evening.

"Ah, everyone’s here now," said my friend as I entered. "Let me tell you all about my day out in London yesterday…"

I started my day at the SPA in TEMPLE, where I’d stayed the night. From there I made a quick trip to a PHARMACY on the EMBANKMENT, before an appointment at the OPTICIANS on TOTTENHAM COURT ROAD. After that I realised I’d skipped breakfast, so picked up a bite to eat from a HYPERMARKET in HOLBORN.

Next, I had an appointment for my nails in a SALON on TOTTENHAM COURT ROAD (again), and afterwards I couldn’t resist popping in to my favourite TAKEAWAY in WARREN STREET to grab a cheeky brunch.

Remembering I needed to buy my mum a birthday gift, I hightailed it to an OFF-LICENCE in LEICESTER SQUARE for a bottle of wine. But they didn’t have her favourite in stock, so I had to travel to a NEWSAGENT in GREEN PARK as well. After that I met her at a STEAKHOUSE in the BAKER STREET area for lunch and we had a jolly nice time!

In the afternoon, I made my way to the EMBASSY in PADDINGTON to pick up a travel visa, then pottered round a CHARITY SHOP by NOTTING HILL GATE. Of course I couldn’t resist having a look around the beautiful ANTIQUE STORE on QUEENSWAY, so I nipped in just before closing time, then returned to NOTTING HILL GATE to visit the LIBRARY. Finally, I made my way to a PUB, which of course was in…"

"Mornington Crescent!" I cried. My friend shook her head. "Nope, VICTORIA, I’m afraid… And that was my day."

I considered her story for a while but had to concede. "I’m sorry – I haven’t a clue," said I.

Do you?

TASK: The name of a board game is concealed in my friend’s itinerary for the day – can you read between the lines and find it?
