Amazing place, great people, such fun vibes and variety of stuff. Got food and milkshakes and played some two player games, talked to the staff for suggestions, bought dice and a couple books to do with games.

Scam store. Will charge a non-refundable deposit for a preorder and then not honor the preorder. Actually just thieves, never shop here.

I went here to check the place out since I was interested in the DnD origin package. I had questions. When I asked two workers that were seated in front of the back area. The male worker spoke up and looked annoyed with me and gave off the vibe that he wanted me to gtfo. Mind you. I did apologized for interrupting his attempt at workplace romance. (had his arm around his coworker and she was being affectionate back). I didn't ask all the questions I wanted to ask since I felt really uncomfortable with how he curt he was. So I said thank you and apologized again for interrupting. I would have ask someone else for help but I saw no one else.
The cashier was nice and but at that point I simply wanted to go home. I was a bit bothered on why they have one person to handle the RPG stuff. Especially if they're not there. Someone should be available to handle that stuff when the guy in charge isn't there. Due to this experience I won't be coming back. Not even to buy something. My drink didn't taste good and there are bigger places with more selections when it comes to traditional gaming merch.
I'm sure others had a good experience here, but my first impression tells me that I'm not wanted as a customer.
pulled a 115 dollar magic card last week

This place is such a vibe. Jeremy is awesome. The private gaming areas feel so intimate and are decorated nicely. Can't wait to come back - my friends and I are already planning for some D&D sessions here!

I recently went for the first time with a bunch of friends, and we had an absolute blast. Jeremy, and the crew took stellar care of us, and variety of games to play made it a lively evening. Will definitely return

Rude staff & expensive to enter! Check out Tidal Tea or any cafe with a great FREE selection of games

I enjoy coming here with my friends to catch up. They did increase their prices. First it $5 for students but then I recently went and it was $10 for students.

went in for the first time today! I work next door at the Costume store! A coworker said they had good drinks! I didn't know they even had food etc! just games! so I went in today for a HOT chocolate! I waited at the counter while the counter lady was talking to a guy w a beard! just chatting! so I continued to wait and be ignored while they chatted!! until I spoke up asking for service and a hot Chocolate! no Apology no Hello! no Thank you! she just leaned on the counter talking to some guy! the hot chocolate was good! a bit overpriced but I enjoyed my cocoa! but the service was terrible! it was my first time and my last time going to this establishment
Terribly rude worker who made fun of my friend for her disability right in front of us. What is wrong with your staff

Hex & Company: A Game of Two Halves
Hex & Company, a quirky blend of board game cafe and retail store, is a delightful haven for gamers and coffee enthusiasts alike. The eclectic decor and inviting atmosphere create a unique and enjoyable experience.
The coffee, a caffeinated concoction that rivals the best of them, was a perfect pick-me-up. And the cheesecake pumpkin slice? A divine dessert that would make even the most discerning pastry chef swoon. The staff, for the most part, were friendly and helpful, guiding us through the labyrinth of board games and coffee options.
However, our experience took a turn for the worse on a second visit later that day when a staff member, perhaps having a particularly rough day or perhaps just a bit too invested in board game etiquette, confronted one of our group members for browsing the games without prior permission and renting. It was a bit like a librarian scolding a child for touching a book.
While it's understandable that the establishment has rules to ensure a fair and enjoyable experience for all patrons, the way the situation was handled could have been more tactful. A gentler approach, perhaps with a friendly reminder about the rental process, would have been more effective than the hostile approach we received from her.
Despite this minor hiccup, Hex & Company remains a charming place to spend an afternoon. Just remember to play by the rules, check with the staff before touching anything, or risk the wrath of the board game gods.
