It was a fun and fulfilling day spent at Minds cafe. The staff were very helpful and friendly. They introduced and taught us games when we were not sure of what to play.

too noisy; free flow of drink but only 1 toilet is not enough for all; hard to find games; ordering of drink is also too slow.

Alcohol, better for options are needed. I also feel the place is a bit expensive... Also the quality of board games is going bad. They need to complete the games and keep them in alphabetical order or something.

The staff are all very friendly and welcoming. Their service is very good as the staff will explain the rules of the game in detail when you are unsure!! Highly recommended! Will definitely drop by again!

Service was bad. Supposed to be free flow of chips but they ran out of chips. They offered to compensate with two plates of wedges. For 15 pax! No apologies. Not going back there again.

The place is amazing... But having no alcoholic drinks kind of destroys the fun... Also all the games are in a bad shape it took us more than 1 hour to find all the things we needed to get the game going.

It would be helpful to know when some games are returned so that the next group can proceed to play. There should be a system for this.

As we are unable to find most of the instructions in the game box we look into the crews hopefully they will have knowledge on the games instructions, however they wouldnt be able to assist. Unlike last time, most crews are very knowledgable in their product. Service is good though, very friendly and patience staffs.

Most of the food in the Menu is not available. The board games are in working condition but I suggest they get new ones. The place is fine but it could be better with renovation.

Some of the games had missing pieces or didnt have instruction manuals. The staff were also busy so we were not able to approach them for help. It was hard finding games as well as they were stacked rather randomly.

The restaurant was a little smelly because of the food smell when walking up the stairs. Some of the board games have food smell as well. It was quite unpleasant to touch the board games.

It was fun and there were many games where we could choose from. Would be good to have at least 1-2 people who knows how to play some of the games. Overall, good place for groups to bond.

Food was average, a bit pricey so not worth the value for its taste. Should bring more people to play games then it would be fun! Most of the games are meant for 3 or more people

Very good team bonding. Maybe a small suggestion would be to separate those noisy games like jenga or taboo in separate rooms from those quiter ones

Its a very cool concept to eat and play games at the same time. Food were nice, however, the portion is a little small. Also, they probably need to have more staff. Overall, it was a pleasant experience! Will go over again 😊

Rundown place. Has the worst staff ever telling us that they're unable to teach us anything because they're "busy". Complete time waster. Don't even bother with this place. There are other way better board game cafes in Singapore.

Average experience. Nice place to spend some time on a sat night without blowing a hole in the pocket as they are opened till 7am. They were very busy though so use quandoo! Service was negligent so just go and play games so you don't need service.

1. Staff has no knowledge to play most of the games we have selected, they only know more of the popular games (e.g: exploding kittens). Told us to read instructions instead. Requested recommendation of games however the staff seem lost. 2. Ordered food and it didn't arrive - waited for 30minutes: upon inquiry to cancel as we are leaving, staff did not provide explaination Nor apology only to mentioned that it was not keyed in upon questioning. 3. Outlet is extremely understaffed and trying to seek for assistance was a extremely tedious chore. Left early despite taking the happy hour package, horrible experience and would never come back again.
