Been coming for over a year. Great spot to host D&D. They have a private room with a large table for parties or game nights. The owner is very nice and accommodating. Will continue to return and recommend to other people

We have been to quite a few different board game cafe and this is by far the best. There is plenty of parking for the plaza. The food choices are more than other places and not just chips & dips! There are many game selection. Even though it's not the one with most, the variety is more than plenty. They also have video games and an interactive game table! The owner is friendly and approachable. We feel welcomed. $10 cover per person is higher than others but it has no time limit. The place is quite spacious and has a great atmosphere. Could it be better? Yes, there are some areas that could use some improvement. The washrooms look tired and the stall door is short (which makes our 12yo a bit anxious). It might be helpful to organize the games vertically if there are more shelves. When the games are all stacked, it's sometimes challenging to pull one out. However, these doesn't affect our experience too much. We had a great time and would recommend this place.

We had a really great time here and will return. I was going to give 5 stars but honestly each area could've been slightly better. The food was mostly really good but we found 2/3 underwhelming. Admittedly this one is a little picky as the food was better than other places and there's a great selection. The service was good but other places may offer help for recommendations and sometimes service was a bit slow. It's hard to play when cups and drinks pile up on the table. The room is nice and big but not all seats are well lit making it hard to read instructions. And as other reviews pointed out, the washrooms need some work. We would return here and there's no reason for you to go somewhere else. It's a great location with a few opportunities to improve. I just couldn't rate it "perfect" yet.

I really like this place! I join a weekly game that takes place in the side room and am impressed with the set up of this place. There are a LOT of games and a lot of tables. Their food is pretty good, the pizza is a major stand out for me. They have coffee, soft drinks, beer, smoothies so there is something for everyone. I think a $10 cover charge is very reasonable for no time limit and access to all the games they provide. You are also not at all forced to order food and drinks so the cover charge can stretch pretty far.

The atmosphere is really great, the owner is very nice and welcoming. I haven’t had food here, but it smells really good when others order, haha And tbeir game collection is very much comprehensive. They have three two rooms other than the main cafe area. You can find games for the adults, and kids as well as an adventurous night!

Food was okay, but the board game selection, staff, and environment was fantastic. It’s fairly dimly lit so in the booths they include a little wall mounted spot light which is great to help read any cards, etc. I’d say my only real complaint is the bathrooms. They’re pretty tired/grungy and weren’t very clean. I’ve only visited once so I can’t comment if it’s a chronic issue or not. My 8 year old daughter had the same comment to me about the bathrooms. Food wise, the grilled cheese was fantastic. My daughter ordered it and I was jealous!

Amazingly open space and variety of board games is probably the best I've seen so far. Staff is wonderfully friendly and always excited to give recommendations. Would highly recommend.
