After Googling local card shops to purchase some cards, I went in to grab a couple packs. I was…read moreimmediately greeted by Kole. He's super nice and helpful. I made a purchase and left. I was pleased enough with the store I made a second trip in the same evening to purchase some more cards. The store was / is extremely clean and neat. While there, my wife and I inquired about obtaining some helpful tips since we are noobies, and we were met with an open invitation to seek help from advanced people on the scheduled game nights. Kole was extremely nice and polite and answered all my questions. I would highly recommend this place if you're into games or trading card games.

The workers were super nice and knowledgeable. The store was split into two parts, which seemed…read morelike a really cool design choice, with one side being the storefront and the back half being the play area. I loved the whole vibe and feel the store had. The play area was just about the right size--not too big, not too small. It felt like the area could comfortably seat 8, maybe 10 Commander pods of 4 players. It felt cozy, like I was in my teens again playing some TCGs at a friend's house. The player base also seemed pretty nice from the people I got to interact with. I didn't really get to change up pods much, but that's more on me than a reflection of the store or its player base due to deck tweaking after a few good rounds. They did seem like they had a healthy little cEDH playgroup there too. Also, at one point, they handed out a free promo card, and I got a Retro Frame Syr Konrad, which was neat! And man, one thing I never even thought about judging a card shop on was how clean their bathrooms were... which, spoilers!!!! Were immaculate. I've never been in a storefront, let alone a card shop, with such a clean bathroom. Most card shop bathrooms look like they belong in a gymnasium. All in all, I'd definitely give this place a 10/10. If you're in the Spring, TX area and need a home TCG store for Tuesday Night Magic (EDH), I couldn't recommend this place more!

I have come to this location many times. Even though I do not profess to be a gamer, I have always…read moreenjoyed my time here. In truth, I am usually here working while my spouse plays. They have themed nights based on different games. They have an assortment of Warmachine, Magic the Gathering, Star Wars X-wing, D&D, dice, assorted supplies, snacks, drinks (even coasters), and board games. There are many times people at the store will choose to play together over a board game while waiting for their other games to begin. The store also hosts local tournaments. On a side note, I appreciate the store's cleanliness. However, what may set this store apart over others is its owner, Justin, and the relationships he has built with his customers. He is a very kind man, considerate and caring, attentive, and helpful. He is funny and curious, two traits that greatly pique interest in conversations where we have an opportunity to learn about each other more so than I think would happen without his involvement. The other customers there have certainly made the store their own. A running joke with a hint of bittersweetness from truth is how Justin may own the store, but it truly belongs to his customers -- that is, until actual responsibility must be invoked. The community he houses within its walls are welcoming and engaging. I am glad this place is here, because it is great to have friends I may otherwise not have known if not for the dynamic of this guild of sorts.

Selection isn't great, and the environment kind of sucks if you're new to Magic or any other nerdy…read morehobby. Lots of schadenfreude and try hards in this shop. "I don't care for the new out of universe stuff." Insert smirk. The environment heavily caters to the LGBT community, they're allowed to have their own little hubs and what not.... so if you don't look like them, talk like them, or act like them... they'll treat you accordingly.. It's like I couldn't breathe in there. This is def the "pronouns" crowd. I remember trying to play and I kept getting interrupted by the two guys behind the counter talking about my deck being this, and how I can't do that, and according to blah blah blah I shouldn't do this. It makes it not fun to play when you have people like this around you. I get that there are rules and I'm learning.. but jeez, no need to laugh and jest all because I've only been playing for a month! The tables to play on were ok, but the overhead lights and constant flickering made me feel like I was going to have a seizure. There's constant conversation from the dudes behind the counter about how one of them has a "non binary" partner, and how to use the correct pronouns, and I'm just fatigued with this madness already. Can't there be a card shop that isn't obsessed with LGBT, pronouns, and schadenfreude? Idk, the environment isn't welcoming if you're not a far leftist or new to the games. It just isn't. That's how I felt while in there, that's my opinion. I'm not interested in politics from either side while I'm playing my cards.

Cool, unique coffee spot! They also have a nice selection of pastries to enjoy with your coffee.read more

I first learned about this spot through my sister, as she and her boyfriend are huge board game…read moreenthusiasts. Whenever they invite me here, it is hard to say no. It is such a cozy and welcoming café, and I always enjoy spending a few hours getting immersed in different board games. The concept alone makes this place a fun and unique destination. That being said, while I love the atmosphere and experience, I do not think the drinks are particularly impressive. In fact, I would consider them below average compared to other cafés in the area. The iced matcha latte tasted noticeably low quality, and the hibiscus tea was reminiscent of feet. The only drink I have consistently enjoyed has been the iced chai latte, which was flavorful and well balanced. The food, however, is a different story. I have generally had much better experiences with the food than with the beverages, making it a better option if you are looking for something to snack on while playing games. If your main goal is to enjoy the board game selection and spend time with friends, I would recommend ordering food rather than coming specifically for the drinks. Overall, this place shines because of its atmosphere, board game collection, and the experience it offers. While the beverages leave something to be desired, the fun environment and solid food options keep me coming back.
