Nice clean shop with friendly service. Limited selection of food and drinks, including coffee and some beers.
Good selection of popular games. As an rpg enthusiast I wish they carried a little more variety, but I'm happy to have a source for my DND needs.

Probably great. Super nice staff. No more gluten free cinnamon rolls as of 10/15/24
Great coffee, and it was fun to browse the game selection while I visited. The groups playing games added a lovely, friendly atmosphere to the space.

Cafe and game store. Lots of boardgames to borrow and play. Limited, but nice selection of teas. Hot and cold drink options. Seasonal specials. (I had the apple chaider and enjoyed it.) Not a huge food menu, but everything I've had has been good.
All in all, a great place to hang out. Parking is somewhat limited, but there's usually street parking a block or two away. If it were closer to where I live, I'd likely spend a lot more time there.
Parking: Smallish lot shared with a few other businesses. Street parking down the block and on nearby side streets.

Fantastic place to play new and old board games, to grab a chai tea latte, or to have a tasty sweet snack. The speciality drinks rotate and the ones I've tried have been delicious and creative.
Parking: There is a small free parking lot right in front of the cafe. I can almost always find a spot.

Was exploring different areas of Seattle, and since my friend lives West Seattle, decided to see all the little neighbourhood areas, and this was for sure a stop as I wanted to see how board game/nerd store are in the little suburbs of Seattle.
This was considered more of a café first before the boardgames, nerdy stuff. But at the same time, they have dedicated private rooms for large groups who want to have a private gaming space too. The coolest thing is that they have such a good espresso machine to boot as well, with your games! They have SOO many tables in the café, and they were all the large ones too so you and your friends can play a decent board game. The coolest thing is that the location of the café is in West Seattle close to a lot of residential housing and it is literally a neighborhood gaming store. I love it a lot.
When we visited, it was a Sunday morning, and there weren't a lot of people here, so it was the best time to visit, to grab a quick coffee and a bite to eat. I ordered a typical iced latte, and was invited by a bunch of ladies who brunch for a couple games of American style Mah-jong. I was extremely surprised by the style and on top of that it was extremely fun! I have played a lot of variety of MJ but this version is VERY new to me. I loved the game and the ladies were nice and lovely.
Next time I want to come back here with a couple of friends, use one of their private rooms, and play a whole day of board games & magic the gathering.

My husband and I had so much fun here playing board games and enjoying white mochas. We played Azul and borrowed someone else’s game for Cascadia which we ended up buying afterwards! The staff was so friendly and the coffee was delicious. The atmosphere is so relaxing and chill. If you’re in the area and need a chill pick me up with some friends (or your partner) this place is perfect.

I didn't eat, but the Coffee was very good. The place is amazing, clean, we'll thought out. I played mahjongg there for the first time. Many other people were playing other games too. I was impressed..........

Picked up my first ever Too Good To Go app order here and had a positive experience. Staff was pleasant, and pick up was quick. I arrived a few minutes before the pickup window at 7:30 am so I could browse the store and cafe a bit beforehand. They had a lot of games, cafe selections, tables, and two tabletop gaming rooms that you could reserve. I would love to go back to try the tamales and buy some of the little loose leaf teas in tube containers. It’s nice to know there is a tabletop gaming space out here in West Seattle so I wouldn’t have to drive out to Mox or other anymore. In terms of my order, I got three large pastries in my Large baked goods box for $5.51 including tax, purchased via the app mentioned above. They were really tasty despite being a day or so old and refrigerated. They were also bigger than pastries I’ve gotten at other local cafes before (it’s hard to tell in my pictures, but the round ones were bigger in diameter compared to your average bagel). The chocolate croissant and savory round one were the standouts; I would return for those two. I didn’t order or purchase anything else at this time. I ate my pastries cold with coffee I brewed at home, but I bet if you put these in an air fryer or toaster oven they would have tasted fresh.
