Hexagon Board Game Cafe

Went here on a date with the Mrs as we've always had good experiences previously! We only had a hour and a bit but we asked for recommendations and played both of them (Splendor and Kulami). Both were fun, easy to learn and had a good balance of strategy/fun. We ordered a couple drinks and had to ... Read more

Went here on a date with the Mrs as we've always had good experiences previously! We only had a hour and a bit but we asked for recommendations and played both of them (Splendor and Kulami). Both were fun, easy to learn and had a good balance of strategy/fun. We ordered a couple drinks and had to follow-up 25 minutes after ordering. Their was some miscommunication between our server and barista which they quickly resolved the problem (and apologized) and even discounted the drinks. You pay hourly for the games but they round down when just a bit over which is nice! We'll be back! Show less

Well organized and clean environment, when I first walked in I felt like this was a perfect place in establishing new friends while playing board games! The only problem that I encountered was that some of the games had either missing pieces or were vandalized by other people. The workers there helped explain how to play the games when the instruction manual was missing, very nice and kind. Show less

Terrible management. We came in for yyc hot chocolate fest to try their hot chocolate. Upon ordering we were instructed to sit down. We began playing a short game as we finished our drink. Upon finishing our game the staff notified us we had to pay for an hour worth of games even though we were not initially notified and had only played for 20min while we finished our drink. The staff offered no apology and we were forced to pay the fee we had not initially been aware of even though they instructed us to take a seat. I would not recommend coming here unless you are looking to be scammed. The hot chocolate was also poorly presented as it had syrup all over the outside of the cup and we were not provided a plate or napkin to deal with it. Show less

Amazing place to play board games! Definitely a must-go for anyone who's into that or just want to spend some quality time, having fun without alcohol.

Amazing place to spend a few hours, whether it’s you and a friend playing catan or a group of 6+ people dungeoning some dragons. Coffee and snack/food options are delicious, but a tiny bit expensive (especially the snacks), but I don’t mind paying those prices if it pays the bills for this place. ... Read more

Coffee and snack/food options are delicious, but a tiny bit expensive (especially the snacks), but I don’t mind paying those prices if it pays the bills for this place. Staff are amazingly friendly and incredibly knowledgeable about pretty much every game they carry. My only criticism is their Vanilla Latte. I don’t know what’s up with it but I’ve ordered it multiple times, hoping it’s just a one off thing but its never tasted quite right. Show less

Honestly, there were way too many little flies that kept getting in our faces and our drinks that it ruined my first experience at Hex the other day.

My friends kept raving about this place, but if they can't even keep the place free of flies, I don't think it's that great... Their games are also in such a dismal state with so many pieces missing we could barely play anything. Staff were nice and they even gave us a little discount, but because the place was so dirty, I don't wanna come back. Also just the fact some of our games were sticky... ew... I don't even wanna know... Show less

Put our name on the waitlist and were called back an hour later. Found $0.75/hour street parking. Go up to the front to get water, ask for help on a game, etc. $4.50/hour per person + each person is required to buy food/beverage. Cookies ($3.50) were nicely warmed up. Good selection of board games to choose from. We were there for a couple of hours and played a mix of old and new games. Show less
