Visited this small creative shop a few weeks ago and was immediately impressed by the employee who assisted me perhaps he was the owner but since this was my first time shopping there I’m not sure. I asked for a particular item which he readily found for me. He then let me know of the games/tournaments they hold and invited me to attend any time. I thanked him and made my purchase. He genuinely thanked me for my business! Very good experience! Will return! Show less

Always a welcoming environment here and today was no different! Shawn Michael Michael Shawn legit always cheers up my day! Excellent service from Mr. Vazquez too in the cafe area!!! The scones here are amazing and their tea and coffee is made so well every time! Their turmeric Lattes make a great spicy warm beverage and their board game rentals are such a great way to test out a game and enjoy the atmosphere to its entirety! I would recommend renting a room for a couple hours too for an exclusive experience within the cafe. Gluten free options are delicious and fluffy muffins and the blondies are amazing as well! Can’t go wrong with any day of the week and David makes the environment feel so inviting alongside all the rest of the staff! Frequently coming here for the past 9 months and will continue to come in for a place to disconnect from work and stress and reconnect with my inner child and fun! Show less

9 months agoThey have a great selection of both old and new cards; you can either buy them in boosters, decks, or if you want to treasure hunt they have binders of old cards to buy solo.

They have a great selection of both old and new cards; you can either buy them in boosters, decks, or if you want to treasure hunt they have binders of old cards to buy solo. I dare you to go through any of those and not find one card; they have a great selection. They also have a lot of merchandise aside from cards as well. But what really makes this place great is that the management has set it up to be a social hangout as well, with tables to do tournaments, trading, etc...Very cozy and welcoming atmosphere, even for little kids.

7 months agoThis place is a second home to me. I have found a second family there, and going there on Monday nights for Digimon locals has seriously helped my mental health improve a ton. Good and loving game-stores like this are hard to find.

An excellent place for kids and parents! MichaelSean is patient and attentive to my son's endless Pokemon questions. They have a great coffee bar.

If you're from Connecticut or visiting, you owe yourself a visit to this store. Management is awesome and hospitable. I went to play in the Locals scene for Digimon TCG. The players were all friendly and really cool. The prizing was great. In addition, I found Gundam TCG packs at MSRP...almost unheard of! The Gundam packs were limited to four per customer to give every player a chance to purchase them. This worked out for me as I am a visitor to this state. I was able to sample the Gundam TCG because of this store, where I vowed not to in my own country because of the prices. Glad I was able to visit here. I'll definitely be planning my future trips around the tournament scene here as it was just a 10/10 experience. The payment process was extremely smooth and easy. I don't see how you could go wrong with visiting this store. I will be back one day to play Dragon Ball Super Fusion World, as I unfortunately am unable to on this trip. Show less
