About Mahjong

A Chinese game, with a rich history

Mahjong is a Chinese tile-based game developed in Shanghai in the mid-19th century. As it spread across East Asia and America in the 20th century, distinct regional variations emerged — including Hong Kong, Japanese riichi, and American styles, each with their own rules and traditions.

American style (Mah Jongg, Mahj)

American Mahjong is its own distinct style — played with 152 tiles, jokers, and a standardised card updated every April by the National Mah Jongg League. It's fast, social, and community driven.

About Me — Andrew Robson

From South Africa to London, Through the US & back

I grew up in South Africa, where I studied a PPE, before moving to London to study a Master's in Law and work in the City.

Travelling across the US — West Coast through to the East Coast — and learning Mahj from family gave me a lasting appreciation of the game.

Why Mahjong?

I started American Mahjong London with the hopes of bringing that experience to others, whether you're new to the game or style, looking for a refresher, or looking to improve your gameplay.

With the hope of making Mahj more accessible in London — through lessons, events and equipment — and to introduce people to all styles of the game.
