The Ludoquist - Board Game Cafe Bar

Nice venue with a generous selection of games to choose from, place was let down by the uncomfortable seating and it would be nice to have a larger selection for the food menu. Hit and miss with staff as some were not friendly but last lady who served us was very nice. Would I go again? Probably not, unless the menu and atmosphere improves.

Amazing place to go with friends. Always try there best to get you a spot if not booked. Perfect pizzas and drinks

Great place ! If you like board games you must visit. Great selection of games, great casual environment, decent food and reasonable prices.

I really like how it's so easy to search and find games.

Honestly this is my third time here and the best experience I've had but leaves me over all confused about the other bad experiences I've had here. Was 7 pounds from 4-till close. But the previous time I was asked to pay another 7 pounds after 4 hours of being there?
Staff were nicer this time compared to previous times where they wouldn't even talk to me.
Food was better this time also. Drinks are expensive and small but nice.
Seems like maybe they've got better control of it and I would come back again and hopefully get the same standard.
The choice of board games is pretty amazing tbh and there's so much to choose from.

Very nice place u can go to hangout and play games and chill

One of my favourite places in London! Inclusive, awesome games and a generous happy hour!

Kid-friendliness: Super family friendly, had a great day out with so many games to choose from

There is SOOO much choice of board games. There's also a super extensive menu of hot food, cold snacks, cocktails and beer. Service is super fast. The food is just standard pub fare, nothing to write home about but it does the job

Kind enough to let me bring my guinea pigs, lovely staff, good food definitely recommend

Absolutely loved the atmosphere here. Playing board games with mates is an absolute must and they literally have everything, many many things I had never heard of.

Service was quite slow but it didn't curb our fun. Highly recommended

Great place to come and play board games with friends. Decent food, good board game selection and friendly staff
