Came here on a whim since it was a rainy day and was absolutely delighted with my experience. A reasonable $10 gets you access to an expansive game library of hundreds of titles, and if you are in for a long game, the café will keep you fed and hydrated enough with their well priced assorted goods. ...

I’ve been to this cafe a couple of times by now. Each time has been such a pleasure. The prices to play are fair considering you are given a wide variety of games to play. In fact, all of the games they offer range in different amount of players, experience-level, and age demographics. Essentially, there is a game for everyone to play. The food and drinks offered are yummy and reasonably priced. Their custom sodas are worth the try, since the flavors they provide are unique. The staff is always polite and helpful, especially when I ask them about how a game is to be played. If you ever find yourself in downtown Middletown, I highly suggest you visit Back Again Board Game Cafe and play a game or two. Show less

Snacks are at a nice price and for those like us who stayed for a good five hours, the ability to bring in outside food was a nice touch. The people working were so pleasant and helpful.

The cutest gem in Middletown! An easy walk from the Main Street parking lot, this cafe welcomes you in with a relaxed, calming atmosphere perfect for a mellow but fun outing. The staff was super kind and friendly and was able to answer any questions you had. There were so so many board games to browse, and if you had one in mind they were quick to retrieve it for you. The prices were incredible- I got the game and a treat pass for $15, giving me an excellent cup of tea (I think it was called shadow something- suuuuper good), a blueberry muffin (I love muffins) and hours of fun with my friend. I went home and immediately told everyone I know that I need to take them there. Show less

My husband and I went as part of a date night and were so happy we found this place. What a gem! The first thing I noticed is that the owners are very welcoming! The friendly woman gave us a tour of how the games are set up with different coded stickers. For example, if you want a quick game, look for the certain color sticker on the game box. The games are also in great condition and are very organized. My husband and I had a great time playing the game we chose. We also love that you have excellent coffee and tasty snacks/pastries including gluten free and vegan options. We are also Tolkien fans, so it was pretty cool that it had a Lord of the Rings theme for the decor. We are definitely planning on going back and bringing our daughter with us next time! Show less

Went back in December 2024 — absolutely phenomenal cafe! It’s so unique and the owners are extraordinarily kind! My friend and I didn’t play games because we were meeting there for tea. You do not need to play games to sit and enjoy the cafe. However, they do give table priority to those who pay to play games, and will kindly ask you to move if there are no available tables for players that just came in. It’s $10 per person to play board games for the whole day! They have many bookshelves filled with various board games to choose from that are meant for everyone. Additionally, (please, correct me if I am wrong. It’s been a while since my visit!) I think they have Dungeon and Dragon nights, or something similar. I’m not celiac, however I am gluten-free. Gluten cross contamination doesn’t affect me. The reason I mention this is because they have delicious gluten-free brownie. When I ordered the brownie, the staff kindly informed me it is not celiac friendly. Which is totally okay! But, i hope my input helps anyone who is celiac or cannot have cross contamination :) Long story short: this cafe is a rare gem in Connecticut. If you come to visit, or if you are a local, you must go to Back Again Board Game Cafe! You won’t regret it! Show less

The events can be either drop-in or requiring a sign-up. Board Game clubs are as good as their community. And the community here is great and welcoming to newcomers. Owners - Jen and Chris - are onsite, and they are always ready to help. There is a good selection of snacks and a coffee/tea bar with tasty options.

I didn’t take any pictures of our group, but my boyfriend and I were invited to a board game night the night prior to our friends’ wedding. This was THE best place they could have chosen to have us all together! It was the first time I’d met any of them, and for him, it was a place to meet new friends he’d gamed online with for years (and even reconnected with some after several years). This small business offers a wide variety of drinks, snacks, and they were so patient when taking my drink orders. Their recommendations were spot on to what I was looking for. There are many tables available in the area, and they were able to accommodate our large, rowdy group. This is such a neat space. I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a game night or to try something different. I’m not a board gamer by any means, but even I was hooked on a 4-hour board game session by playing many fun games. A side note: there is a note in the bathroom above the sink where a mirror would be that reads, “You look great today!” You never know how much something so small can mean to someone, especially when you’re meeting a group of new people for the first time. It made my night. Thank you for the top-notch experience! Show less

I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a game night or to try something different. I’m not a board gamer by any means, but even I was hooked on a 4-hour board game session by playing many fun games. A side note: there is a note in the bathroom above the sink where a mirror would be that reads, “You look great today!” You never know how much something so small can mean to someone, especially when you’re meeting a group of new people for the first time. It made my night. Thank you for the top-notch experience! Show less

My wife and I made it a point to stop in during our long weekend getaway for our anniversary after seeing videos of the cafe online. I was impressed with the amount of tables that were available along with the amount of options available in terms of snacks and drinks, not to mention the nearly 1,000 board games available. I am not exaggerating about the amount of board games available. We were there for a board game demo and as the afternoon went on, the place became more and more busy. It genuinely seemed full of joy with families playing together, friend groups enjoying several different games, and parents playing games while their kids were at an adjacent table enjoying their own choices of game. At 4pm, a large group came in for what I believe is the weekly Blood on the Clocktower game. The group was large enough and had enough newcomers where they split the game into two smaller groups to accommodate the newer players. We did not partake in the game, but it was a great thing to see. They have an event calendar on their website, Facebook page, and Discord server. It appears that they have quite the variety of offerings for people to partake in. The baked goods and beverages we had were quite good. My wife has the lemonade and I had an iced apple cider. We also tried a s'mores fried dough, peanut butter cookies, and oatmeal raisin cookies. The staff was very friendly and made an honest effort to remember your name. We live about 100 minutes from the cafe, but left wanting to come back. We're hoping that we can make time to take the trek down once every month or so, but with our crazy schedules, we know that will be difficult. If you find yourself in the area, I recommend you stop in and try out some games. Show less

Just go already you nerd It's ten bucks yes they even have that game, they have 400+. Yes You can have your 4-Hour campaign with the other 10 people. Let your nerd flag fly. It's not a sausage fest. Everybody's welcome everybody's kind because they're not paying attention to you they're paying attention to the people playing their game. If you got smart kids go visit. If you need a place for a date go visit. Jen the owner is awesome she's knowledgeable and kind and will answer your questions or leave you alone it's up to you. The cookies are good. The sodas are interesting and varied. The rest of food is kind of meh but good enough buy something anyway because at $10 a person shes doing us a huge favor It's would be a value at $20. Just go already so you can come back. I love 45 minutes away and it's absolutely worth the drive. Show less
