Visited this excellent shop for the first time to let the family choose a game for a rainy Sunday. There was an excellent selection of games and we were very appreciative of the information and insight provided by the employees. The kids are already asking when they can go back.

We only went to go buy some board games but they had a wide selection to choose from! It was quite busy with all the tables booked so definitely book one in advance if you're wanting to sit down. I definitely want to go back to hang out more

Amazing! Such a huge collection! Had to go through twice to make sure I hadn't missed anything. Boardgame shop and cafe. Drinks and Treats. Great atmosphere and really kind, welcoming and professional staff

We got to Edinburgh and stumbled upon this place. We were immediately warmly welcomed by two super friendly team members who gave us a great start to our stay in the city. Beautiful variety of games, vastly knowledgeable team, good coffee and more make this an absolute gem. Tables can be booked to play games from an extensive game library. Such a cool place! Thank you so much :)
