Nice and quiet on a tuesday night. Top it up with ladies night makes it a good place to chill in. Spaghetti could have been better as 2 portions of it were both overcooked. Dessert fared much better.

I am glad that the staff are starting to learn more games and can recommend some to us. Hope they keep the good progress up and be able to teach us more good games. In general they are friendly and good natured, though the choice of food is always quite disappointing because what we want is always not available. Perhaps a smaller, more consistent menu is what they need.

Service was great. Did not have to wait much when we arrived on time. Service staff were prompt in asking us whether we want our drinks refilled. Cosy environment with many board games to choose from. A good place to hangout with friends on a weekend. Overall, a great experience for first timer like me. (cafe was full house on my visit, so do remember to make reservation)

I loved how the price is kept affordable. Staffs are nice and generally know the games well ! The food is like normal cafe price but maybe slightly cheaper which is great!! Especially since many students , myself included, go there.

Would be great if 1) more games which are suitable for kids aged 6-10 can be included 2) there were more staff on duty during peak hours. The staff were too busy serving food n drinks n had no time to advice us on the games. Our orders are even served wrongly!

Service sucks though we were the first customers in the empty cafe and not worth me paying 10% service charge for the lousy service. One particularly tall Server at the prinsep street branch gave all sorts of excuses to mend the monopoly board that's broken into half upon my request. Guess he'd used the same excuses cos of his laziness. After me being frankly sick of his excuses, he reluctantly mended the board. Definitely will be our first and last visit there

as the place says it. had a thoroughly good time with the games. a wide variety and packaged timing was very good. however food is terribly subpar and the wait staff are young and unattentive, unapolgetic and not well versed at the games.

Nice and cozy place. Celebrated my son's 11th birthday there.... Great facilitation of the boardgames. Value for money. Good place for even older couples and families with young kids to spend a wholesome Sat evening afternoon. It beats playing on tablets and computers any time !

Wide range of board games, cosy atmosphere makes it a perfect space to spend a chill afternoon with a close knit group of friends. I went on a Monday afternoon, so it wasn't too crowded since there were only 4 groups of people there. 3 hours and free flow of drinks at only $7.80 (w/o GST) makes it perfect for first-timers like us!

good place to have games and celebrate a birthday party. tho' you might want to check what are the food options as every time I go there, the stuff my friends want to eat are always out... I like the cajun chicken rice a lot, but would rate the food low simply because of above.

Great place however it was quite small. As we had 4 people and was given only table so if we were to eat and play at the same time is kind of hard. In term of service, there are rooms for improvement. It would be better if the staff are more attentive when we are requesting for foods and drinks. Will visit again but would avoid peak period.

The food was not up to standard and most of us did not even finish our meal. The free flow drinks were all very diluted as well. We would revisit just for theiir selection of games but no more eating there.
