Is a place to play games. They have tons of board games but people bring their own. Their play fee is $3... but is not the place itself but the people that goes there what makes this place great. Very friendly people, eager to help and to teach. What I like most is the atmosphere
For those who love board games, this is the place. They have an area to play more traditional games, and elevated tables for the big games that you build worlds.
I take my boys there and they always have a great time. They have games for all ages and the food is pretty good too.
Very cool game shop. For less than $4 a person, you can play any of their games. Many small tables and some large ones for standing up gaming. We played Splendor and Codename.
Love playing Magic the Gathering here. Excellently run place. And the cafe inside is perfect to get what you need while playing games.
Been here the last 2 sundays. Great place to play games and adventure with new board games. One thing that's bad is the baristas/ food servers they give attitude and look and act like they hate their life specially one of the girls.
Food was great and had a huge selection of games.
Definitely my go to place to meet up with friends to play board games. I come multiple times a week, even playing with the owner, Doug. Can't wait to see how they keep expanding the café and kitchen menu!
Awesome place I love playing MTG here... My cats approve of this review!
The staff here are always so welcoming and sweet! Place is always clean and well kept, and prices for renting rooms are very fair. There's a lot of table game and tcg variety as well. Definitely a hangout spot I'd frequent more if I lived closer :)

Great environment. Okay selection of games but lots of table space to play.
Decent place to hang out if you have friends to go with (no one ever uses the LFG sign, so don't bother hoping to join strangers since they're also going there with their friend group). Not worth buying from though. They charge $50 for Azul, a game with an MSRP of $30. Laughable.
The library is good, but the copies are all worn and falling apart. At least staple your rulebooks back together.
The standing wargaming room also gets hot and stuffy, they need a fan back there or something.
Are you a nerd? Do you like Magic The Gathering, D&D, Pathfinder or other TTRPGs? Do want a place where you can mingle with your fellow nerds and play the above mentioned games plus other? Do you want a place where you can enjoy something to eat and drink while you game? Java Game Haus has you covered for all you nerd needs. Rule books, games, figures, all the stuff you need in one place.
Normally I don't do reviews, but I will say that Java Game Haus has been an absolute awesome blast of a place to go hang out at. My first impression had me think of the place as a miniature board game theme park. It's not just a shop where sweaty peeps can play TCG, it's a place that actually caters to all the tabletop gamers for all ages and backgrounds. There is a real local community at Java Game Haus that you don't see too much of in this digital age and struggling economy. The food and drink are fantastic and affordable too. I think it's the perfect place to trap and introduce your normie friends to board games while you guys eat. Whatever business formula Java Game Haus is using, all I can say is that it's working. Great job, guys!
