Davis Cards and Games is a great place to get board games, trading cards, and build community. I've…read morebeen going to their weekly Riftbound night for a couple of months and always have a great time when I go. There's plenty of other events whether it be Magic, Pokemon, DnD, or any number of other games. I highly recommend this store for anyone who is interested in getting into a trading card game or just finding a group of people to play with. Additionally, the play area is in a slightly separate area from the main storefront which I think makes it more approachable if you are just shopping and if you're in the play area it feels like a place you can hangout.

We were treated poorly by the lead employee during our experience today. We felt belittled and were…read moretreated in an unwelcoming manner from the gentleman working there. Additionally, the way he was talking to the young female worker was quite rude and made us feel rather uncomfortable. He was treating her unfairly and no one should have to endure that from a higher up.

But most of the main comics that would you would expect are there. They have a huge selection of dollar comics. At least 30 boxers. So much fun to look through for some old comics to complete a run. They have a whole long box full of signed comics if you are into that. They also have about 30 long boxes full of complete runs that you can buy. I could spend hours in that store.

They truly have something here for everyone, and it's one of the last places you can get a print newspaper. You should bring cash if you can - newspaper sales cost more to process on card - and be prepared to be in some tight corners, because they really make good use of the space. Sadly, they no longer stock Jellycats, but it is what it is.

They have things for both boys and girls but the main room is mostly all for girls. The second room to the left has a lot of toys and boy clothing. It's not just baby stuff either, they have plenty of larger sizes for big kids too! It can be a bit pricey - I ended up spending nearly $75 for one outfit, a bow, and a little book, but I'm familiar with the brands and I knew it would be high quality (highly recommend anything bamboo fabric...softest thing ever!). I'm happy to spend that extra price tag if it's going toward a local small business too. Everything here would make such a cute gift and the items are more unique than something you'd find at a big box store.
