Alway a great experience here. The staff is friendly and we never feel rushed. Great environment to chill and play some fun games while you wait. Bottomless mimosas are great!

I always love coming here--the vibes are absolutely amazing, and the service is always so great. The food is always a hit or miss, though. My burger was super salty, and the ground beef on the nachos was burnt. This was the first time the food was poor quality, as it's usually pretty good! I have no problem returning again, as I love this place, but the food is mediocre and I would say this establishment is more for the experience rather than the eating.

Fun concept with all the board games. I made a Sunday 11:30 a.m. OpenTable reservation, thinking it would be packed. Upon arrival the place was empty, only 2 other tables with customers. Very open feel, tables spread apart, seemed very clean. The menu is an order & pay on your phone which I've only experienced once at another restaurant. LOL, for us "old-timers" it took awhile to get everyone's order in. We ordered Bloody Mary's, Cheeseburger, French Toast and the Classic Breakfast. The young man that delivered all the food was extremely nice, checked up on us regularly. The food was good. My bad in the order and pay to request on extra notes: salt around the rim of the Bloody Mary and medium rare on the burger that was well done. I assume, since this restaurant is on the main drag of the U of A Campus this place must be packed at night with the college students. I'm glad I tried it. Atmosphere: big, open, clean, board game fun. Food: good. Service: phone order and pay.

The concept is cute….but the food was really bad! I ordered the chicken curry bowl and it was terrible. My drink were not great either. I would not go back again. If you like board games and just want to play games and have a drink it is perfect! But is you es t to enjoy your meal….eat before going please.

Love this concept and had a great time eating dinner and playing games with our family. The food is okay and portions are good. Service was outstanding and super friendly. I don’t think you should charge $3 for kids though. The $5 per adult should cover it. That’s all I would change.

It was ok. I think if they did a little better job on the menu they would have more people there continually.

Surprised my boyfriend with a date night experience with a mixologist here! Super fun and would definitely recommend. By our last drink our mixologist curated a drink in which both my boyfriend and I really enjoyed which was exceptionally impressive seeing as my sweet and I have two totally different tastes in liquor. Overall really fun night, learned to play some new games that my boyfriend and I can play on our own as well. The food was delicious as well the garlic bread and marinara 😌👌🏽 Great Experience!! 🙌🏽

Super fun concept if you’re wanting to gather for game play. But totally fine if you’re not. Food was very good. Excellent service. Just a fun vibe!
