7 months agoGreat store with great selections, we get everything we need for our growing Wargammer 40k addiction. Staff is top shelf, event nights and game section is amazing. One of the best community building spots I've ever seen, one of my favorite stores.

3 years agoThis is our second time in this store. Big selection of board games, stuff for RPG players, and miniatures. Staff welcomed us right as we came in. The space is small, but they are moving to a new location soon that is much bigger!

4 months agoRecommended for Pokemon people who need a league place. Speak with the Professor, he’s usually in but you might miss him if he’s not there, but trust me he is local to the shop, he appears in like 1-2 minutes.

1 year agoA veritable wonderland of games. It definitely leaned more towards D & D and similar games. Game in with the kids for their birthday. I found some cute otter pens. Would definitely bring hubby and the kids back.

5 months agoThis is my favorite local board game store. Such a good variety and the prices are decent for local. Only a couple of dollars more than Amazon and I’d much rather support these peeps. They’re also always willing to answer questions and help me pick out sleeves.

I am temporarily in the area, but I’ve been visiting game stores for over 20 years. I must say, Gamer's Haven is one of the rare few that truly brings back those fond memories of stepping into a game store and immediately knowing it’s a welcoming place to be. The staff is always courteous, the store’s organization is impeccable, the prices are unbeatable, and the selection is refreshingly unique (though I wouldn’t mind seeing more Dungeon Crawl Classics—but that’s just me). Truly a gem, and a place that should be treasured by the local community Show less

The staff here was very friendly and very knowledgeable about all things to gaming and even though they didn’t have the game we where looking for at the time( which I am surprised they didn’t have it because they have a absolutely HUGE selection of stuff) we still left with 5 different games. We are extremely happpy we found this place and would definitely recommend checking this place out. Huge selection!!! They also have a whole area where you can play games and paint the pieces you purchased for you games. Thank you again! Show less

They have a decent sized staff, so someone is always available to help in person, and they put on an amazing board games / miniatures auction twice a year, catering to anyone who wants to either sell or buy. These guys have been my solid #1 go to for years, and I honestly can't see why I would ever change that habit. Show less

Best game store in town. Staff are friendly and super helpful. The selection is awesome and they can place special orders for you. They have tons of tables for different formats of games and even have a section where people can paint and build models. There's a large selection of board games available to play in store if you want to try before you buy. They have gigantic selections of citadel paint and army painter. They have big selections of Vallejo and well. Did I mention they do special orders? That's one of my favorite things they do. I have gotten so many hard to get 40k boxes because of Gamers Haven.

This is definitely the BIGGEST game shop in Colorado Springs! They have such a huge selection of board games and table top games! The card games like MTG and Pokemon are a little lacking, but that is probably the only downside to this place. Besides having a huge variety, it also provides plenty of room to walk around and the atmosphere is great. There is a separate area for gaming and it is big as well. I have not played here before, but this seems to be the shop to go for board games if you can't find what you're looking for at other shops. Show less

I ordered their signature buffalo wings, which were spicy and crispy, served with a side of ranch for dipping. The portion sizes were generous, and they had a variety of sauces to choose from. The staff was attentive, ensuring my drink was always full and that I didn’t miss any of the action. I also appreciated their extensive drink menu, featuring local craft beers and signature cocktails. The prices are reasonable, making it an ideal spot for gathering with friends to catch a game.
