1 year agoThe cafe is very lively and cozy. The coconut and honey milk tea was super delicious, as well as the Oreo cake we tried. There’s a huge selection of games and it’s a nice place to chill with friends 😋

2 years agoI loved the food selection here (from what i see a lot of Korean food) and it’s pretty decent pricing too most things are under $10. And also $10-12 admission for 3 hours is really nice, definitely a good place to chill at and pass time!

I can with a group of 8, so we got a private room. There are multiple room, the one I went to has an underwater/space theme and is very beautiful. There are hundreds of board games to choose from. There are also a lot of merchandise from different anime. It cost $12 per person for entry and then food is separate. I spent $16 for my food. Show less

This is such great place to hangout. First of all, they have many board games and live rpg scripts. The staffs are very helpful, if you dont know how to play a game or missing players, their staff will gladly teach you, be the moderator for the group or play along. They are also open to recommendations for new games. Secondly, they have a smack menu, their best to me are chicken wings and fries. The milk tea selections are good too. From entry fee to food, all within reasonable pricing. Sometimes me and my friends have couple hours to kill, e.g. we go and play the game killer lol. Thirdly, its a big space, they also hosts for parties, holiday events, and tournaments. Whatever, whenever u want, you name it they will make it happen. All in all had great times playing there, its a wonderful place to stop by and have fun. Show less

1 year agoCozy place to play games and chill with friends! Lots of selection, but some games are definitely more beat up than others. Menu has something for everyone. Time limit is not enforced unless it’s full capacity. I come back quite often! I love their new chicken cutlet curry.

Came with a party of five on a Sunday afternoon and there weren’t many people, which was great for us. They have a lot of games available to play so we were able to try some new games. Admission fee is only $12 for 3 whole hours on Fridays - Sundays. $10 on Mondays - Thursdays so price is really cheap compared to other board game cafes. We played this category game called Tapple that was really fun. There’s also a card game called taco cat goat cheese pizza that’s super simple to play and is really similar to slap jack. The inside of this place is really spacious and they also have a decent variety of food/drinks. You can choose to become a member and earn points to unlock certain deals. When you register for the first time, you spin their wheel of fortune, which gives you a certain type of perk depending on what you land on (ex: free drink, free candy, free fries, etc). All your purchases also get accounted for in their points system where you can redeem for free things once you reach a certain amount. There’s also a section where they sell their own merchandise that includes tote bags and water bottles. The workers were all really nice and kind, taking the time to explain to us how things worked at the cafe and also helped us find the category game that my friend forgot the name of originally. Highly recommend coming here if you’re looking for a place to play board games without worrying about it being too crowded! Show less

If you are going to play in a TCG tournament, you pay a fee. That’s a given. Now, if you want to stay even after the tournament.. they would charge you.. again?? After the Pokemon tournament I played in happened, I bought approximately 33 dollars worth of food + packs together. Even with that, they will want to charge you the admission fee. This to me is absurd as other places will not charge you any fees as long as you buy something.. Show less
