The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and you can tell they genuinely care about the community and the hobby. One thing I really respect is how they changed their Pokémon card policy to help combat scalpers. Real Pokémon fans usually don't mind if the factory seal is cut when buying product because the cards and packs inside are still untouched, and it helps keep product in the hands of actual collectors and players instead of resellers clearing shelves. If you do want fully sealed product, they still offer it at current market price, which is a fair balance for everyone. Great atmosphere, great people, and a store that actually looks out for the community

I had never heard of Space Cadets until my son wanted to purchase the Box of Power for Clash for…read moreEternia. I went online and many other sites had it for 120.00 + . I then found it listed for 19.99 on Space Cadets. I messaged them to confirm this price is correct, and they messaged back saying that was the proper MSRP price and it came with the base set of the game so they didn't feel right charging more. The game was then sent quickly and looked great. Will definitely be shopping from them again!

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!

Walking in I was greeted by the owner, I'm guessing. (I'm terrible with names) I let him know how clueless to what my N/N were into. He took his time and explained everything to me, and what each age group was into, and suggested items that looked familiar. What made the experience great was no up sell attempts, to get me to buy a bunch of things I didn't know, but he advised me on what names and types of things to look for when I visit the N/N's so I could get the right gifts. Overall very knowledgeable staff, great selection of different games and gift ideas. And very personable. Would definitely stop by this shop for holiday gift ideas! With Gas prices increasing, items seem very affordable!

Store has large gaming and hobbying area, including paint stations with free to try paints. #1 place in Texas (only legit place) to get Monument Hobby Paints (best in the business). Terrain is the greatest Ive ever seen out of the dozen or so stores in Houston, they have no equal guaranteed. The community is very open and inviting (and you don't have to worry about Gamer Funk...if you smell what I mean lol). The community at this store is non-cliquey, unlike most stores in Houston. Meaning, if you don't play game A or B, then you are ignored. Not at Board and Brew; they are welcoming for everyone and the crowd regularly try each others games out. Been here for 11 years and this is by far the highest quality community and staff.

I arrived today to…read morecheck out this new store and I found a group of Tabletop Role-playing gamers happily rolling dice and having fun. The store owner greeted me amidst the cheers of a successful die roll. He was friendly and welcoming, encouraging me to look around and let him know if there is anything he could help me with. Located East of Tomball, well before the railroad tracks that marked the unofficial​ entry into the town proper. The store has a large parking area with nearby food (Artega's Mexican Grill and a Subway) across the street from a local high school, (Concordia Lutheran). The store is small, but has several fold up tables for games. The selection comprises a large Warmachine and Hordes selection, Pathfinder RPG books, the latest Magic the Gathering booster packs, along with dice, and some dice bags. A selection of drinks and snacks are available for purchase. His inventory is small, but he informed me that he is going to expand it soon. I'm always happy to see a new game store open and the community enjoying it so quickly. I have hopes this new store will endure the difficulties that come and thrive and grow.
