A southampton gem! Great place to support.

Lovely relaxed atmosphere. Wonderful staff. A whole load of board games, almost anything and everything you can imagine. You need to book in advance as this place gets busy

Friendly and helpful staff with a great knowledge of the many hundreds of games they must have on the shelves. Spent nearly 5hrs there on a Sat afternoon and wished I could have stayed longer. The food and drinks are good value I think, but it's really about the games.

First time I visited this place and definitely won't be the last. The staff are so genuinely nice and enjoy interacting with customers. The food is really reasonably priced and delicious, choice of chocolate (room temperature or refrigerated!) and 100's of games.

Good range of games and a great venue for hosting events if you reach out to them. Parking near by is almost impossible until after 6p. It's highly recommended to go with friends.

A great range of games. Staff are very knowledgeable and introduced us to some new games. It's a very community spirited enterprise that thoroughly deserves to be successful. You should visit, enjoy some games and give your money to a worthwhile community project.

Fantastic little place!Perfect if you want to try a game before you buy it!Loads of games to choose from and fantastic staff that are more than happy to help teach you games if you learn them better by having them explained rather than reading them!
