The Loch Café & Games

Honestly, I don’t get the high rating here. The muffin was hard as a rock, and the breakfast sandwich tasted like a frozen sandwich that was microwaved. Mine was still cold in the middle, too. The coffee wasn’t great either. Just really disappointing overall. Sharing in case anyone else is thinking about stopping here—I wish I had read a review like this first!

Parking can be tricky in this area, but this shop is worth any effort. The dude working was super friendly. My husband got a coffee and browsed the Magic: the Gathering cards, and ended up buying some. I enjoyed looking at the gaming books, plushies, and stickers. This feels like a geeky safe space.

Very friendly staff and great drinks! I appreciate that they have sugar free options as somebody who can't eat sugar. The board games are lots of fun! We really enjoyed coming here. If you are thinking about it, come support this great business!

Was driving through Duluth on our way home. We wanted something local for our coffee fix. The atmosphere is fantastic for people who love to be nerdy. The coffee and food were amazing would definitely recommend. The next time we're in Duluth definitely gonna stop again.

I stumbled along this game cafe heading to a nearby appointment. The energy and vibe was On-Point for a game cafe. It was fun to see so many people playing various board games upstairs, a local musician working on his music, a father hanging out with his son… just a very diverse crowd, but it was buzzing with good vibes! I’m not the gamer type, but I can 100% appreciate being in a space where people can come and genuinely enjoy their time there. I ordered my SF almond milk latte (made with local Duluth Coffee Company coffee), had stellar service, and the thought of it all made me smile on my way out. :-)
