    BYOB and endless games to choose from. This place is a gem! Almost a little overwhelming with the amount of choices... we went with classic Yahtzee but you could easily spend all day in there trying new games.

    Huge selection of games that one can play for free. Like most places in Chicago, it's a BYOB. I am new to boardgaming and I love this place. There's tons of new and old games, but there's no order to arranging them so they are kinda all over the place and takes a bit of time to find, but they are still good. The games shop is attached to the play area and has shiny new versions of the games.

    Y'all are insane, but in a good way. Visited the store on a few occasions and it's really an amazing store. From the helpful employees, to the great selection of games to purchase, to the gaming area - we we're thoroughly impressed. Then, we recently decided to purchase a game from the online store this week (during these hard times) and the quality/speed of the delivery was insane. Granted, the game was about $5 more than you can buy from other sources, but I wanted to support local and the way my order was handled sealed the deal for me to support the store regardless of the price in the future. Thank you all.

    I'm not a huge gamer of any sort, so I don't really have much to compare this place to, but I do interact with people and the people here are always super nice and helpful! :) That's basically all I need.

    See all

    What a great spot!…read more I'm a huge gamer, and I love tabletop games, so when I had the chance to check this place out with some friends I was super excited. The ambiance is fun - designed with decor to feel like a castle/fantasy place, with tables large enough to accommodate games. The centerpiece is the game vault. Walking into it was really cool, seeing all of the games organized by categories, and getting to chat with their game experts was helpful for learning about new games that would work for our group size. Part of the $7 per person game charge is that it covers having one of the game experts come over and get the group started on their game - reading through rule books is often the most laborious part of setting up and getting going with a new game, so having someone be able to skip that part and get us right into game play was worth it. The menu is a bit lacking. It's basically bar food, and the drinks are centered around alcohol (which I get, large profit margin). If you have some niche dietary requirements you may struggle here, I'd recommend looking over the menu before deciding if you want to plan to eat here. I can say the coffee is tasty, my partner had tea and enjoyed it, but if you're also not a drinker there isn't a whole lot for you, either. The food I did get (pretzel bites and a flatbread) was solid, so no complaints there from me. All in all, I do plan to go back sooner than later - it was great for finding new games!

    Came here for an impromptu date with my boyfriend and ended up having a really fun time. They have…read morea huge selection of games, which is great, but it can also be a bit overwhelming. I wasn't sure what to pick, and while they do have staff to help with games, it wasn't very clear who to ask. Better guidance or labeling for group sizes would help. The drinks were good, but the food was just okay. We ordered mozzarella sticks, and they weren't great pretty bland. I'd recommend eating before or after. Service was friendly, and the overall vibe was fun. I think this spot is even better with a group of three or more, but it still made for a nice, spontaneous date. I'd go back. Would rate 3.5 if they had half stars
