Really nice game shop with a strong selection and helpful and knowledgeable staff. One of the afternoons I was there they were getting set up for D&D for kids/young people and they had a great turnout. Cool place. read more

This establishment and the plaza it rests in is awesome! Loved the setup here with the games, snacks, and overall ambiance. I was traveling thru Bend so only got to pop in and take a quick look but I would totally go back if I lived here or wanted a cool spot to buy and enjoy games and laughs! read more

I go about once a year while visiting my cousins and every time is a treat. I bought a bloom burrow prerelease kit and they threw on an extra card unprompted. Made my trip. That card is Flubs the fool and he's now the commander of my favorite commander deck! read more

Everyone is super helpful and nice. Fantastic selection of hot new games but also the modern classics. In addition to boardgames, they have everything you need for D&D including locally made things! Their paint selection has grown to include some hard to find paint ranges. Also, their nice drink selections are reasonably priced! read more

My dad goes there but it's a little expensive but they have a great selection of TCG's and others.

Never left a review before but had such a great experience here tonight. The gentleman working was exceptionally helpful. We asked for recommendations on 2 person games, and told him some other games we enjoy. He showed us 5 different options that we'd never heard of. For each he gave a concise rundown of the concept and playstyle. We ended up purchasing 2 of them - the first we played when we got home and had a great time. As an extra note, I was also surprised at the reasonable pricing (compared to online retailers). If you're into board games, go support this local shop. read more

Very cute store. I love the fact they sell reused games & also have a huge selection of games to play while the in the store.

Charming and comfortable with a very well curated selection of games. Beers on tap, so stay and play a while. read more

So impressed with this place! We stopped in during our recent trip to Bend since we were looking for non TV related things to do while on our trip. The nice employee recommended this game where you build a bear park- sounds crazy but it has been the best game and the perfect two player game. We played it over 30 times while on our vacation and ordered the expansion pack. We stopped by a second time on our way out of town for another two player game. Haven't played the new one yet but looking forward to a quiet weekend to play. read more

I love living here, people love to refer you, as needed to the right place. In my search for a birthday gift to an 11 years old intellectual boy, I was on the look for a good jigsaw puzzle. Luckily I've found this beautiful gem. Knowledgeable Brian is running the show, you can come in have a drink AND play board games (after 6 pm). Kids and adults friendly read more

See all

Well stocked game store. Minus one star for having to pay 5 dollars per person to stay and play a game at their tables. Most places do not charge read more

I have friends who think that Monopoly is a good board game. I'd rather drive an ice pick into my eyes than play Monopoly ever again. Execrable games like that are history. Just say no and get yourself to this great little store in the Box Factory near the Old Mill. This store has the best new games available today. This is the perfect place to discover prize-winning modern games like 7 Wonders, Dixit, Azul, Splendor, and many more. The owners are friendly and knowledgeable--they have played nearly everything and can help you choose the right game for you. But beware -- once you start playing the latest games, you'll find yourself hosting game nights with friends who claim that they're "not into games." It's easy to get addicted! read more

Great find mid trip for us. They had solid pricing and exceptional inventory. We still play the games we picked up there. If I lived in this town i would certainly be a happier person- and I'm sure I would make this a 5 star review. Thus, I am holding a star hostage until I become a local. read more

Sadly, my friends and I were disappointed by Modern Boardshop. We all went in and bought beers, stoked to play some games, and after we purchased our beers we were informed that it is an additional $5 fee to play games. I understand charging a fee if a person doesn't purchase anything else, but we had just bought $50 in drinks. If we had been allowed to play games without the additional fee, we would have continued to order more drinks and they would have made more money off of us in the long run. When I brought this up, the owner snapped at us and was quite rude. They get two stars because at least their beer and cider was good... read more

If you're into Eurogames, tabletop games, or DnD, this is the game store you want. Brian and Susan are super friendly. There are games galore. Puzzles too. Lots of tables for playing and a game library for trying games out. There's nothing not to like here. Just an all around great place. Other games tend to be open to new players and friendly, too. read more

Nice selection of games and the staff is extremely helpful. Unfortunately, prices are much higher than Amazon. I want to go back to try out some of the games they rent, as the price is much cheaper than typical entertainment in Bend. read more

Very cute shop with all the interesting games that you can't find anywhere else in town. Located close to the Old Mill and they have craft beer and tables to sit down and play games! Guy working there was knowledgable and helpful. He said they just opened 3 months ago and have game nights on Thursdays which sounds fun. Would love to see this shop succeed! read more

The host was so welcoming and enthusiastic-he was like a sommelier for games. He expertly steered my friend and I into a two person game, succinctly explained the instructions so we didn't have to waste time reading them, and checked in on us a few times to ensure we were having a good time. Pricing was super fair, and we each bought the game he recommended we play. We will both be back, with friends and family in tow. read more

Super fun game shop. Head in for a local beer and play a game from their giant lending library or pick up the latest board game you've been itching to play. Chances are they'll have it or can get it for you! read more

Great shop! Modern games and classic games for the family! Games like Pandemic, Cards Against Humanity and the most Classic games - and more modern games that I'm excited to play! There are games you can borrow to try out, and really delicious snacks at a great price. They have alcohol for those over 21, and game night on Thursdays. Very fun! read more

I love this store!! So many amazing games and the staff is phenomenal. Very helpful, kind and knowledgeable. I didn't realize there were so many really cool games that I had never heard of. I also love that they have tables and open games that we can sit and play in a very friendly environment. We will definitely be back again and again and again! :-) read more

It's nice to have a shop with a diverse array of board games in town. Although they are smaller than some of the shops in bigger cities, they keep up with recent editions and offer the latest kickstarter and indi games as well as top sellers. Looking for a 2 player version of Settlers of Catan? It's there. Seeking a game night with others so you can play your 3+ player games when your friends are busy? Every Thursday night from 6-9 p.m. is game night. Join others or bring your own game and pals. The big plus is they are helpful and super friendly! read more

Small, but well-curated selection of euro-style and R.P.G. Big tables for tournaments. The owner is very friendly and knows his stuff.
