These places already exist, they're your local game stores! Show up, play games with other people. If you like competition most host official tournaments for various TCG's and table top war-games. These tournaments usually forbid devices while playing, since they can be used to gain unfair advantage, so you are forced to be offline by default. (Plus it's considered rude to be on your phone during a match.)

The problem is the weirdo problem someone else mentioned. You can only put up with so many stinky man children till you decide it's not worth going

The local shop scene never appealed, but big love for my gaming crew. Been playing games with the same lads for twenty years, and we've all learned how to wash!
