What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"Came here excited to pick up some cards, but the prices were honestly ridiculous. Everything was marked way higher than other local shops and even well above online market value. I’m all for supporting local businesses, but the markup here makes it really hard to justify buying anything. Ended up walking out without purchasing because it just wasn’t worth it. Pretty disappointing experience overall."
"We really enjoyed the games and environment here! I took some kids on an adventure to a train ride and had some extra time around in the early afternoon. Out of curiosity we went into the quiet game cafe. It was conveniently right across from the Metra. It was a superb bonus to our day! There weren't too many games for these little people that can't read but the games suggested were great and we adjusted games as needed."
"Really nice board game/card shop with schedule activities/events. The place also operate a small coffee shop. Stoped by to have a look and had a great conversation with Eli. He told me about the place and gave me an hour+ explanation of MTG (super interesting). Will definitely be back for some playing."
"Great local game shop. The owner is there all the time and very knowledge and friendly. There are no organized games right now due to COVID bit typically this place is busy with board, card and D&D type game play. They sell all kinds of board and card games. During non-Covjd times you can even try many of the games first through their store copies. There is also a small cafe for sandwiches ana drinks. My boys love the hot chocolate. One of the best things about this place is the other patrons. Everyone is very friendly and helpful. It's a nice little community. Go drop in and say hello."
"This is a coffee shop and a boardgame store. The espresso and food is pretty good, although the latter is mostly sandwiches and soup. There's a counter that you can sit and work at for a while, and if you want to try out any board games there is an extensive demo library in the back. The store has a pretty good boardgame selection, although it's not exhaustive. If you play Magic: The Gathering, this is your hangout spot."
"Perfect spot for a game meet up. Great coffee. James expertly facilitates games, the space, and is an excellent barista! 10/10 recommend! Join us for Sunday..."
