Jon CassieJuly 30, 2013My pick for the finest friendly local game store in the whole country. Super nice owners and employees, HUGE play area, equally huge, comprehensive stock (they've got everything...).
There are no finer a game shop around Portland than here. Love the vast number of tables and the games you can play inside the "Adult" room. The prices here are also good.
I was amazed with the amount of products, they even have Issues from Dragon Magazine, also Dungeons & Dragons 1st edition books!
JayJanuary 6, 2019They have an extensive array of board games and other bits and bobs! They also hold game nights rather often for Magic etc.. A great place for kids too :)
Gordon MeiSeptember 27, 2014One of the largest board game stores I've ever seen. Beers served in the playing area in the back. Abundance of Crispin pear ciders.

Micah SpielerJanuary 11, 2015I can't believe how big this place is! So many board games, plus they have a bar in back if you want to have a beer while playing.
Eliot JohnsonAugust 15, 2012The staff is super friendly, they have the best selection of magic the gathering cards, and board games. Go to the 21+ game night! Free play magic night is awesome too.
Good library, great selection, friendly staff, and they have an onsite bar.
Joshua ConleyJanuary 3, 2016RPGs, cards, video games, miniatures, board games- these folks have you covered. The customer service is excellent.- Brad TaitMay 7, 2017Tremendous selection of board games, knowledgeable staff, and some fun special events!
Any game you can think of, lots of space to wonder & play in their new awesome digs. Woot Angel
Mary SFebruary 18, 2016Wow. Biggest selection I've ever seen. So many games! You can even play them too as a trial.
Helpful staff, but neither pushy or mansplainy. If they don’t have a particular game, they usually can order it for you.- If you are with a kid and want a drink, you can always leave it in the bar area.
If the lot is full, there's plenty of street parking on weekends.
