Great board game store to visit with a date or group of friends…read more Came here in person at rush hour to pick up a game, as I didn't want to pay for shipping online. It's located in Richmond Hill in the business/warehouse district off a windy road called West Beaver Creek. The address is easy to find, lots of free plaza parking, it's next to a kids dance studio and very visible store sign. Nothing sus like another yelper stated. Inside is very spacious, clean and bright. I love how organised the shelving for new games were laid out and they even more games in back. Off the walk in, I was greeted immediately and four employees were excited to help me. They are game experts and could name off suggestions for games quickly, to pair with similar games I had in mind. Super fun to nerd off in the board game world here! I always cross reference with boardgamegeek.com first when planning to new purchases, but asked them in person to see if opinions lined up. I was impressed one employee was quick to suggest ones I never heard of. Prices are good to fair. I felt no pressure to buy anything there, they even offered if I wanted to test ones that they have opened or to get a feel of the pieces(card game quality for kid durability is real). I left with buying three games I had eyed online, and excited for the suggestions for the next visit. They have a free loyalty program, can't hurt to sign up when you're a board game investor, as this is one place to bookmark. No food or cafe noticed here, unlike other board game places. Maybe one day as they are still new.

Been here a couple times and it's a pretty neat board game spot. It's not too hard to find as it's…read morelocated in a small plaza. First impressions of the place was that they had a nice selection of board games as well as the place was very organized. If you're ever in Mississauga and not trying to travel all the way to Toronto I would recommend this place for playing board games with your friends or if you're looking to purchase games, as they do have a wide variety of selection to choose from. I went on a Thursday afternoon and it wasn't busy at all. They did look like as if they were restocking the place but I'm not too sure. They have a small cafe as well as a place to play board games and dine in which was cool. I ordered the matcha latte which you could choose flavours from: strawberry matcha latte, coconut matcha latte, plain matcha latte, and more. Overall, I liked the place and would definitely come back to dine in or play some games.

It's good to see board game cafes continue to evolve. The beverages at LVLUP are tasty and the game…read moreselection is good, and the staff are familiar with their stock of games. I was there for Free RPG day and the crowd was having a good time. Definitely a good place to go for a cup of coffee and a slice of cake.

It's been 6 years since I've been here and it's nice to see they survived the pandemic…read more Still a large library of board games available, both for purchase and to play in store. Apparently they also offer a consignment service where you can sell your products through them? Not too sure the details but there are shelves full of seemingly random stuff so if you're looking for an escrow to help sell valuables this could be an option..... You can come in and play games all day for a flat price of $7 (up from $5 six years ago, which is impressive). Have to bring in your own drinks though as there's no cafe although I guess fantuan does exist. Maybe there's a fridge of canned drinks I wasn't paying attention. There is also an annual membership that you can buy that includes various perks including a discount rate of $5 to sit and play Owner is friendly and knowledgeable and can teach various games, so if you're looking to learn something new or bring in a group for a board game event, this place is a fantastic option.

They were able to explain how to play Pokémon TCG too. The staff are very friendly also. There is also a variety of board games you can play there too.

Easily one of my favourite places to nerd out at. And DEFINITELY my favourite place to nerd out at…read morein the GTA. Legends has extremely competitive pricing (Games Workshop stuff usually 20% off!) and a very nice selection of board games, comic books, cards, minatures, and geeky merch (I definitely picked up a Rainbow Dash mug on my last visit here.) If they don't have something that you have your eye on, you can connect with them to see if they will order it for you (which they likely will, if they can!) Really flexible hours of operation, open late many nights of the week, and there are constantly events occuring here. They have a fairly large, well-lit, and clean gaming space in the back. Customer service here is quite friendly. I'd HIGHLY reccomend checking out Legends if you are in/around the Vaughan area to get your geek on :).

Legends is my go-to store for all my tabletop games. It's so close to my house that it's almost…read moredangerous. The first time I came here I left with 3 games! It's like Walmart lol you go in for one thing and leave with 10. There's a pretty good selection of board games, both popular and obscure. If they don't have what you're looking for they'll gladly order it for you and give you a call when it comes in. The guys who work there are all very nice and very knowledgeable. The first time I came, I was still fairly new to tabletop gaming so I wasn't sure what to get. I had my eyes set on Agricola but after talking to the associate I realized I wasn't ready for such a heavy euro game just yet. The associate asked us what we liked and then basically went through their entire collection with us, pointing out and explaining various games that he thought would appeal to us. You don't get customer service like that anymore! All the games are also much cheaper than you would find at Chapters or Mastermind Games. They've also got tons of other nerd stuff like comic books, figurines, and superhero paraphernalia. The store is located in the back of the plaza so it's difficult to find if you don't know where to look.

This place makes for a great time…read more There are less third spaces these days but this is an underrated one. They have starter packs for magic and has a bunch of board games. The service was friendly and they have a solid selection. Parking might be a little rough given the location.

Admittedly, it's okay to kill time in, if you don't mind having to root around like a truffle hunting hog, but it manages to combine strange selection (I found a bunch of Tron action figures) with strangely high prices. You might find a good value, or something. It violates pretty much every rule of retail in terms of organization and presentation, being more like a massive single retailer basement rummage sale. It's a shame, since the downtown store has been improving and the junction store is a good venue. I guess this is the picture in the attic.

The store has tons of staff to help you with tons of questions and they are all nerds of their own type too. The staff were friendly when I was here. They were attentive, and wanted to help all people just randomly browsing the store. Their selection of board games is huge, and they have an area of paints too for those who do paint figurines too.They literally have all your nerd stuff here in the middle of Downtown Toronto. I loved it. And to have a huge community of players to play MTG in the back of the store too, that was just epic. I registered for a night for EDH and the community is helpful and nice too. Will come again in the future for some more community nights!!

BUYERS BEWARE!!! stay away from this crooked seller unless you don't care for them to steal your money. highly NOT recommended

There's a few games I've been meaning to buy because I want to get into board gaming. I think they are so cool but I'm not ready for any heavy or long games. I had a list and while browsing I found one. The super helpful staff located the other two I wanted. They seem to know their games here which is great! There's also a huge chess section. Lots of fancy sets. Very cool to look at but I don't need to buy expensive chess sets at the moment. Their selection of games range in age/difficulty level so this is a great place for all ages. Will definitely come back once I'm comfortable with my new games and ready to expand my collection some more!

Never again! I went…read moreto this horrible place with my kids, and the experience was extremely unpleasant. The salesman with long hair became visibly anxious as soon as we entered the store and immediately started blaming my kids for an already-opened plastic bag. The attitude was completely unnecessary and uncomfortable. My kids were also blamed for touching the squishies, which are literally products being sold to children. There are much better ways to speak to customers and children. We definitely won't be coming back.
