We came across Another Round while strolling through the downtown Portland streets. Upon entering the shop, we were greetes by hundreds of board games. This cozy space would be perfect for a board game night with friends. I liked the variety in the menu, we ended up ordering a chai tea and a smokey orange latte. Our favorite drink was the smokey orange latte. The staff was kind and the service was quick. read more

Absolutely loved this place! It was such a vibe the entire time I was here! I initially got the smoked orange latte, which was quite tasty with the nice orange and chocolate notes after. I still wanted more to drink, so I got the 500 Block Buck cocktail, which was quite refreshing with a nice bitter taste to it. I also purchased one of their shirts, which I thought was cute. A lot of games to choose from, but just note they do request a $5 per person fee if you play one game for more than 45 minutes. The staff were super friendly too. Definitely would come back if I was in the area! read more

I love the vibe in here, especially all of the different board and card games available! We ordered the smoked orange latte and iced chai which were both very flavorful. Everything came out quick and the workers were kind. They also have a lot of cute merch like hats, t-shirts, and stickers. This is a great place to hangout with friends! Seating can get filled up quickly because of this. read more

Another Round - Bars Near Me - Portland, Maine

My partner and I spent many a happy afternoon cozied up in Another Round on rainy days, and absolutely love this place. It has spacious tables of varying sizes, so you come as a duo or as a larger group, there are a ton of games on offer that range from shorter game plays to much longer campaigns, the staff are kind, the prices are fair, and the drinks are phenomenal. They also offer both coffee and alcohol, depending on what time of day it is / what you're in the mood for. Also, their smokey orange latte with black sea salt is one of the best coffee drinks I've ever had. This is the perfect place to kill anywhere from 1-4 hours, whether you're looking for something to do on a lazy afternoon or waiting for a reservation at a nearby restaurant. We've since moved out of Portland, but will definitely be returning the next time we visit. read more

Another Round - smokey orange latte with black sea salt - Bars Near Me - Portland, Maine

Amazing staff, great location, wonderful message. I have never had a dull moment here. I come to study, draw, and just hang out. Plenty of clean bathrooms. And an amazing latte. The Smokey Orange latte is made with peeled orange rinds, you can sometimes catch a glimpse of the prep and it is always so wonderful to see. I have had the privilege of drinking several in this lifetime. I get it warm with oat milk and it is seriously one of a kind. Such a great place, can't thank you guys enough. read more

We got to Portland early - for a play and decided to walk around - found a fab spot and decided to have a drink. Normally wouldn't have a martini before a 3+ hour play, but this is just right! Kyle was helpful and the martinis are so good! We need to come back & try the Coffee Manhattan read more

Another Round - Espresso Martinis! Yum..., - Bars Near Me - Portland, Maine

What a cute spot! A friend suggested we grab coffee here before the storm this week and I didn't realize they were also a MORNING spot. Excellent coffee and treats, and the NICEST baristas! Plenty of seating which was nice- a few of the tables have outlets which is also good to know in case I ever want to work/study from here. PLENTY of games if thats your thing. I only came in the am but will have to swing by soon for a cocktail and a hang. Super nice spot and a great addition to congress st. read more

Absolutely loved Another Round! Quickly stopped by for a coffee one day when we were in Portland and loved the cozy vibe. Can't wait to go back for a longer visit and play some games.

Our family is in Maine, from Long Island NY for a vacation and I this was my must see spot. I'm so glad we came, though we unfortunately didn't get to stay long, our visit was amazing. I ordered an oat milk mocha and my husband had a black iced tea, we shared a cookie and a convo while our toddler napped (when the planets align ever so nicely!). Hubby said tea was refreshing and given more time would have had a second. My mocha was smooth, rich and very delicious! The staff was patient and friendly with our group of 8. We fawned over the games, not having enough time to play but chatting about what games were on our wishlist and which we were interested in if we could make it back before heading home to NY. Environment- the overall vibe was so chill and cozy. Loved the peg board style shelving, seating was abundant and varied. We liked the couch corner we sat at. And I cannot say enough good things about the bathroom situation! Absolutely loving the inclusive bathrooms, hoping to see this become the standard! Thank you so much for creating such a lovely, welcoming spot! You can tell it was designed thoughtfully- with a lot of heart and a love for games and beverages! read more

Love everything about this place. Super laid back atmosphere and workers here are also amazing. Love their coffee, love their games, and I love their bathroom setup which is honestly super random but if you go there, you would understand why I love it. I can't stop going back, in love. read more

Such a charming place! I stopped by for coffee before the storm and was surprised to find out they're also a great morning spot. The coffee and pastries were excellent, and the baristas were incredibly friendly. There's lots of seating, including tables with outlets, which makes it great for working or studying.They also have a bunch of games if you're in the mood to hang out. I only came in the morning, but I'll definitely return to try their cocktails in the evening. read more

I was really excited to try this place but it didn't live up to my expectations. I'll start with the Pros: Lots of tables to sit and play games. Variety of games to choose from. Fun vibe. Cons: The drink I asked for they didn't have but it was on the menu. The drink I got was just okay. The service wasn't very friendly. They charge a fee per hour to sit there and play games which is fine but they didn't tell us that when we sat down. Overall I hope I just had a one time bad experience because I think this place is super cool! read more

We stopped in while wandering around Portland for my partner to get a coffee. The staff was super friendly when we walked in and had some interesting options for lattes and coffees. My partner said it was a high-quality oat milk latte. It was a smaller place, but they had good and comfortable seating options and more games than you could play in a year. I wasn't familiar with a majority of their game titles, but could tell there was a variety of classics, cult favorites, easy ones, involved ones, and some rare finds. We didn't have a ton of time to kill before our dinner reservation so we opted not to play any games but it was tempting. I'd make some time to play next time we're in town. read more

absolutely amazing :))) temperature is perfect, games are super fun, and there's trivia on Tuesdays from 6:30-8:30!!! I usually just get an iced latte, and I can sit there for hours. There are places to charge your devices, places to sit 5+ people, and if you just want to go there by yourself, they have 2 person tables for that too :) read more

Went here the other night looking to play some games and have some fun. That's what this place is perfect for. In the heart of congress this spacious spot has an unlimited amount of board games of all varieties. We could spend hours here. Staff is super friendly and helpful and will help you find any game you desire! The drinks are also great! Got the pumpkin espresso martini which was delicious. They have a pretty great beer selection too! Would highly recommend coming here with an group of friend and I'm sure you won't want to leave. It's a great time here and I will be back to try out more games. read more

Another Round is a wonderful concept that I'm so glad exists. Perfect for a rainy day--come in and enjoy board games galore (and drinks and light bites!) in a cute space. I enjoyed my gingerbread espresso martini, and noticed they had pastries from Bread & Friends, as well as other light bites and beer/wine. Don't see a board game you like? Fill out the form on their website. Another Round's founder (who's such a friendly dude!) will guarantee it's on their shelves if it's not already. read more

Perfect spot for our Gen X women's meetup. Another Round nails cozy, nostalgic fun--board games, good drinks, easy conversation, zero pressure. Board games are basically in our DNA, and this place lets you lean into that (orange flat vibes included). Great for groups and anyone who misses hanging out without staring at their phone. read more

Could not be happier with Another Round. The staff are beyond helpful and welcoming. Harry has the rules for many of the games more or less memorized and is happy to help teach you to play if it's a game you have never played before. They have tons of drink options, including non-alcoholic. They have a nitro earl grey with yuzu that is made in house and is PHENOMENAL. Another round is clean, peaceful and fun. What more could you ask for? read more

My wife and I had fun time here on a rainy afternoon! There's a really great game selection here, from more casual trivia and card games to super complex, lengthier games. There were also many games from smaller game publishers which were cool to peruse. The atmosphere is really nice and the coffee was great. read more

Tonight we stumbled across Another Round: the cutest coffee shop meets board games establishment as we were walking along Congress Avenue. Harry, the owner, was very welcoming and personable. The decor was very unique. There was a huge collection of games: well loved old favorites and ones we had never heard of. Ambience was great: such a happy, relaxed vibe. They have a good selection of hot and cold beverages that includes adult beverages. This would be a great gathering place for friends or families. Both myself and my 12yr old son agreed that it was a 5 star experience. My son even asked Harry if he would consider opening up a franchise in Texas! If you are ever in Portland, Maine please support this small business. You won't be disappointed! read more
