I visited on a Saturday and found the place josting a bachelor's gamong party. I think they do birthdays too. Gamer's Haven is a relaxing place to play role playing games and such away from home with like minded people. Most of the gamers connect through the website meetup which shows the date and times gaming groups play. They regularly look for new players. The establishment has an extensive collection of roleplaying books for a variety of games. Think of it as a library of sorts only devoted to roleplaying. The owner/manager(s) (Dave) are thoughtful and considerate men who appear to run their business 1st to provide an atmosphere where grownups can enjoy each others company like a book or chess club only role playing games. Dungeons and Dragons, Pathfinder, Warhammer 40k, Rifts and card games like Exploding Unicorns and such. They have three private rooms for private gaming. The place is mature. You can bring your own beer as no one there is under 21 and everyone is polite. They have a membership program ($35 a month) but you can pay by the day ($5 a day). First day of play is free as a trail to see if you like it. They take cash, venmo, etc. They also have some paints and figurines if your into personalizing your character piece. Gaming materials (dice and such) for sale and can order. They even have a 3d print you can use by the hour (they charge by the hour). I like their snack section that comes with a number of candy bars, nuts, ramon, ice cream bars and drinks. They have a microwave, frig, and sink.the place is made up of 3 sections. The back appears to be dedicated to Warhammer 40k. They have free wi-fi at Gamer's Haven too. Overall I think the place is a must see once in your life as an alternative to the library. Your not in an awkward position of having people over late at night if you have kids and such. However, unlike the library their hours are open past 8 pm. I think members can stay after management leaves with membership access. They have security cc cameras inside and the doors lock after you leave. Atmosphere: 6 star. Clean. Fair temperature. Wifi Service: 5 star. Quality: 5 star. They have a gaming table with a monitor. A collection of gaming books. Value: not sure of the going rate in the industry. Still if one lives close enough and has they friend to play with its better than online gaming or watching TV read more

Gamer's Haven - My treasure haul. - Tabletop Games Near Me - Colton, California

Very cool store! Met one of the owners Andrew and he was super nice and helpful. They have a decent collection of boardgames and a healthy membership of Magic and Warhammer players. Gamer's Haven also has great deals of board games, minis and paints. Overall, supercool space for gaming and fun. read more

I picked up Warhammer in January this year. As I was painting my army, I wondered what the community was like in the Inland Empire. I had no experience or friends related to table top gaming. I had my first introduction game here and every game ever since. The staff are excellent and welcoming. All of the members are great too. It seems tight knit but welcoming. I decided to become a member and was surprised about the cool perks! I highly doubt Ill play anywhere else at this point. I really enjoy the atmosphere here and the people. read more

In 2016, a friend and I were looking for a place to participate in free RPG Day. We Googled and found Gamer's Haven - at it's first location. We'd never heard of the place and decided to check it out. We parked in the business park complex and found the location. We weren't sure what to expect but as soon as we walked in we were amazed at what we saw. Big cabinets filled with games, more cabinets filled with minis for all your table top needs, and more cabinets of rpg & wargame books! Seriously the collection here is like a crash course in the history of our nerdy hobby. I was greeted by Dave, one of the partners who runs the place. He was immediately friendly and gave us a tour. It was a small building, at the time, but cozy and there was plenty of room to for many war games and a giant RPG table with a tv inside if digital maps are your thing (they are mine, as I can't draw to save my life). Dave explained a bit about the place; that is a membership-based club, however open to non-members who can play at a per diem cost. My friend and I were impressed and decided this place was for us. "Let's give it a try for 6 months and see how we like it," we said. As I write this, we are on the cusp of the summer of 2022 and my membership has remained since I first started. Gamer's Haven is now a much bigger location from when it first started (well more than double the original size.) Yes, this place does have a store and it has plenty of wares. If there is anything they don't have in stock they will be sure to order it and have it for you as soon as possible. My favorite part about this place is that it is more than a club or a store. It is a community; one I am so glad to be a part of. I have made such amazing life-long friends here, the kind that make you think how did I ever get by without these people in my life. Everyone is friendly, everyone is a nerd in someway, and we are inclusive as everyone is welcome. We love playing games and if you love playing games you should check out Gamer's Haven. read more

I've been a member of Gamer's Haven since I first moved to the area in, early 2017. I initially found them through Meetup, as that had been useful in finding people/groups for TTRPGs in the past. I'm glad I did. If you are into TTRPGs/Wargaming/Magic/Boardgames/etc... and live within a reasonable distance, Gamer's Haven is without a doubt something you didn't realize you needed in your life. Let's be real, you can spend $35 to go a movie with small popcorn/drink for a couple hours or you can have access to a location that is the Sistine Chapel of our nerdy interests for an entire month... The movie will probably suck anyway lol. It's a great community, even if gamers happen to be more socially awkward on average, the actual troublemakers/dissidents get weeded out quickly... Leading to a cultivated community consisting of good hearted individuals who like to play games of all shapes and sizes. I'm one of the "forever DMs" that looks forward to murdering your charac... Oops, damn inner monologue... I meant, sharing interesting and engaging stories with you in the future. read more

By far my favorite place to play games. This club offers opportunities for board games, card games like Magic, Role Playing games and table top games as well. The community is welcoming and active. There are many opportunities for each of these genres. In regards to table top games, there is a very active and welcoming community that plays Warhammer 40k, Horus Heresy, Age of Sigmar, as well as other table top favorites. The store supports several types of events for table top players including weekend tournaments, masters leagues, slow grow leagues as well as narrative. Wednesday nights are the main evening for tabletop gaming and the store arranges for food from a great pop up restaurant called Cozi na. Gamers Haven also carries all of your hobby and gaming needs, and if it is not in stock the store will look to order the merchandise for you. By Far my Favorite place to play games and hang out with my friends. read more

A great place to come and play games! The club is big with multiple rooms for tabletop rpgs, a large open area with large tables for miniature war gaming, board games, and magic the gathering. Both the space and the bathrooms are well kept and clean. Great community with regular updates and events. Dave keeps the store stocked with whatever the club needs. Come down and play some games with us! read more

Gamers Haven is a club. Members have access to the facility, including games, rule books, tables, miniatures, and other game aids for a wide variety of wargames, roleplaying games, card games, and board games. This is truly a haven for gamers. With so many of the old Friendly Local Game Stores gone, this provides a location for people who don't know each other well (yet) to gather and play games. Although not a store in the traditional sense, members can purchase game products through the club at a discount off the regular retail price. If you're in the Inland Empire and into pretty much any kind of face-to-face gaming, do yourself a favor and check this place out! read more

I love my time at Gamers Haven!! Everyone has been so nice and respectful. The games are interesting and so much fun. I love DnD so I play in 2 awesome groups and 1 out of this world star wars game. Check out my photos for a glimpse into the fun! read more

I've been a member at GH now for a few months, and its a great space and environment for all things gaming. There is a little bit of everything for everyone, and the people and variety of gaming are awesome. There are busy nights that feel more like a party (there is even oftentimes a guy there cooking great food and people just hanging out) and there is access to the space anytime you can fit a game into your schedule as well. There are plenty of gaming tables, an admirable little shop, RPG rooms with doors so you can let loose, terrain, a library, everything. I personally play Battletech, Gaslands, FoW, Team Yankee and dabble in a few others. All the big games have a tournament sized following, and there is a Discord to set up any type of game you want. Its a cool little community, come check it out! I play Battletech every 1st and 3rd Tuesday at 6pm, Gaslands Saturday mornings, come roll some dice at the club. read more

I've been playing fantasy games ranging from DND to warhammer table top and even delved in TCGs like Magic and I don't think I've found a community of players quite like the one they Gamers Haven brings. I've played all over SoCal and now moving up north recently solidifies what a gem this location truly is. David and David (yes there are two of them) both really make this place feel inclusive and friendly. They have tons of active players in all aspects of gaming (board games, TCG, RPGs) and are always open to adding more if there are people looking to play other things. I recommend checking their pages out on FB or IG and you won't regret it! I miss my days of hanging out with the many friends I made there. 10/10 always. read more

Great games with a great community. Gamer's Haven not only has an excellent stock of games but provides a great way to find other gamers to join you in whatever tabletop game you are into. read more

One of a kind place in the inland empire where you have great place for any rpg/board/card/tabletop game. They offer amazing prices for their products if you have a membership which will pay for itself. I love having the access the game area 24/7 for the late gaming nights! No more trying to finish a game before closing. Though keep in mind the store front isn't open 24/7. The gaming space is very large with plenty of tables and a couple a rooms dedicated for RPGs. For wargaming nearly all the tables are large enough 40k and AOS games with a nice selection of terrain. I don't think I can ever play or shop at any other store. Heck I don't even game at my own place any more since I been coming here. read more

This club and All the people I've met here have been so friendly, helpful, and amazing. I'm so lucky to have found gamer's Haven as I was getting back into tabletop games after a 10+ year break. It's been my favorite place to play games and I've been lucky to see it grow and I'm excited to see it grow even more. read more

I've been a member for about 3 years now and I couldn't recommend this place more. It's a great place to play games. They have a very active warhammer community and a growing MTG group. They have a couple of separate rooms available for RPGs if thats your thing. The owner is also great to work with if you want to get something new started. If you're interested in games stop by and check it out! Wednesday nights are warhammer Wednesdays! read more

Gamer's Haven is what it says it is, that being a great place to play and learn games and meet new people interested in the same games you are.
