Situated in the former butcher shop, Le Geek Shop is a welcome and refreshing change to the east end of Third Avenue. This shop offers video game paraphernalia (i.e. t-shirts, keychains), board games, card games and Pop! vinyl toys.
In the back, there are several wooden tables for geeks to gather over Magic: The Gathering. While you game, you can pick up a pack of Nerds, munch on chocolate bars or enjoy some freshly made buttered popcorn. Basically, the cash desk is the snack bar, where can pay for a cup of coffee or David's Tea to go along with your bon-bons.
I hope this space gives geeks a chance to build some more community here. It is much needed in Abitibi-Temiscamingue!
MUSIC: You'll love the music if you're in your 30s. I caught some Third Eye Blind and Sugar Ray while visiting. read more
