Amazing! We should have booked longer. I can't wait to go again. A great selection of food (with vegan and gf options available). Lots of hit & cold drinks - even alcoholic ones.

Amazing! We should have booked longer. I can't wait to go again. A great selection of food (with vegan and gf options available). Lots of hit & cold drinks - even alcoholic ones. They provided water for the table too and the selection of games to play is off the chart! Very reasonably priced and in a great location with loads of parking in the surrounding streets as well as a massive car park just round the corner. The toilets were very clean but I didn't see any baby change or accessable toilets (the toilets I used were down a flight of stairs). Just because I didn't see them doesn't mean they don't have them though, so give them a call to check. This place definitely needs more merch! 😆 Show less

Incredible experience for newbies! Never been to a board game cafe before and it was super fun especially as we were a lot of people! You get carried away with the games and it's highly entertaining. Great establishment and a lovely atmosphere!

I loved this place! So did my kids. It was our first visit. Travelling from outside the city, it was easy to find and easy to park. When we arrived we were the first there but even when almost at full capacity at the end of our visit it was still a very personal service offered by the staff and we still felt "private" on our table. There is a vast selection of games to choose from, the staff offer suggestions for things you may like and they genuinely seem to enjoy what they do and don't hate going to work each day. For all of these reasons I would definitely be back. My 4 star is menu based... The booking itself is inexpensive and we thoroughly enjoyed our 4 hours there and would repeatedly visit throughout the school holidays despite the distance.....HOWEVER given the length of time we were there, selecting from the menu is unavoidable and in my opinion isn't pocket friendly or particularly kid friendly for that matter. Fancy crisps at £3.50, £3 for soft drinks, and a bagel with anything more than ham or cheese costing around £7.50, it soon as up.... And maybe it's just my kids but I've never known them to ask for hummus as veggies as a cheaper snack alternative! I will say, the food is absolutely delicious and as an adult visiting I would order again but I do think the menu would benefit from a few more "kid friendly" options, a bowl of chips even and a regular packet of crisps.

A fun place with an impressive selection of board games, both short & lengthy ones. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable, offering to show how to play the game and giving advice about which ones to pick. Drinks choice was good, and the food was very tasty too. Would recommend to visit.

Awesome place with plenty of games to choose from, tasty cocktails and a friendly staff. Reasonably priced and a great way to pass the time. Only minor thing is that it would be nice if you could hear the music in the side room too.

Gosh I wish I had a place like this in my town! Group of six of us, some from Manchester, York and Derby so we wanted somewhere in the middle, The Treehouse came up as number 1 for boardgames cafe. The BG Cafe I had been to before was in London. The Treehouse is sooooo clean and tidy, as soon as you walk in it's just so beautiful! So much choice for board games, I love that they had recommendations on like "best for beginners" and "good game for 2 people". It's also a great system so you can return the games back yourselves. There is a qr code on the table, this shows you the menu and also recommendations for board games for the number of players. We found this very useful. Booking online was very simple, we didn't have to pay in advance which was great. It was £2 per person per house which we thought was a bargain considering how much choice of board games there are. You can buy board games there was well. You order easily at the bar and they put it on your table tab or you can pay there and then. The only downside which is no fault of there own as it is such a busy place is that the food and drinks do not all come at the same time. My partner needs a drink to digest food so having our food out 20-30 minutes before the drinks arrived wasn't ideal, luckily I had a bottle of water on me at the time. It also meant me and my partner had finished our food way before the rest of the table even though we all ordered at the same time (the only difference was we paid ours straight away but I can't see why this would change as we were all on the same table and ordered the same time....) we will try differently next time and see if it works. The food choices are great, lots of vegetarian and vegan options too! I had a mushroom, cheese and spinach toastie and it completely filled me up! I was really surprised. The portions for the whole table were really good. (toastie was £9.50) Very fun atmosphere, the max you can have a table for is 6 hours which made it £12 per person - amazing!! Toilets were also clean, with disabled toilet on the same level as the games as well. As soon as we left we all agreed we would 100% be back! Show less

I spent a fantastic full day here with my friend. The selection of games was huge and we were never bored. The food was delicious, especially the grilled cheese. As we are both students, we both appreciated the student discount very much and we will be returning because of it.

So good we came back the next day with friends! Lovely food and snacks. A varied drinks menu (although as the designated driver I'd have liked a non-alcoholic cider option, dandelion and burdock saved the day instead). Staff couldn't be more friendly. The set up is great for different sessions, a long session to get your teeth into an expensive game you don't want to buy but would love to play or lots of shorter social games with friends. It's a great way to introduce people to board gaming and we plan to come again with our 7 year old (who is currently obsessed with exploding kittens) so we can test out some different ones to see what she prefers. Pricing is very fair if compared to other afternoon/nights out. Looking forward to coming back again, just wish there was another one in Barnsley! Show less

honestly the best place in the world. great game selection, great food, amazing staff. really good soundtrack too. If I had to, HAD TO, fault one thing: the fluting on the water bottles isn't ideal and could be a lot smoother. but that's literally it. no where else I'd rather spend my weekend.

Excellent evening. Really friendly and helpful team that helped us choose a game to start with. Moved on to second and third games later with great support. Very tasty home made food and cakes. Really good selection. Great evening out for five of us with wide age range.
