I love this place!!! The atmosphere was lively and very welcoming when I came. It’s a good spot to come with friends or even family/kids. Our gamekeeper Wes was so helpful in narrowing down game options for us and we ended up enjoying each game. The people and service is amazing 😀 I’ll be returning in the future

What a FUN idea! Loads of board games are located on shelves for you to choose from yourself or you can ask a Game Sommelier to pick some for you to choose from. I suggest that you have the Game Sommelier ask you questions regarding games you like and see what they bring to your table. You may find your new favorite game!

Nice place for hangout with your friends. Eat and play. The food was okay, and absolutely a large selection of board games is a plus. They can help you if you need help to find fun games for your party. Unique concept and $7 per person for unlimited games is worth trying. Definitely will be back.

This is definitely a place to visit. The vegan/vegetarian menu was incredible. It was hard to pick something to try with so many delicious sounding items. It was sad to hear the seitan wings were sold out but the Buffalo “chicken” sandwich was so good. Plus the French fries were some of the best I ate. You could stay here for hours, eating and playing all the games! Plus with the added bar menu, amazing! It’s a great place for everyone! I’ll be back!

Fun place with great customer service! I love the vast game selection and the affordability of this place. It’s around $7 per person for about 3 hours. The lavender lemonade was pretty tart yet still tastes good. It would be best to set up a reservation here, if you go here. Luckily my wait wasn’t that long but it was definitely getting busy when I had gone

Queen & Rook is a wonderful place to spend time with friends. It’s a welcoming atmosphere with exceptionally friendly staff and a huge library of games. They have loads of events weekly and a great community to get in with. On weekends they even have game sommeliers to recommend a perfect game for your mood and teach you how to play.

Love the idea and theme of this restaurant! went with some friends to celebrate a couple birthdays. I’m not a vegan/vegetarian and usually like to choose places with a variety, but everything was amazing. The impossible Burger was one of the best I’ve tried, we wanted to order another but the kitchen was closing. Great choices in games by the game master, hoping to go back for trivia next time I’m in town.

One of the best places in the city to go out to. Nerd AND gay-friendly. Excellent place to meet people and play board games.

A really nice place in the city to have a good time. We ordered their Korean spiced Cauliflower (tasted good but could have been crispier), soy chorizo and potato pasteilillos (scrumptious filling in this one), street corn nachos (tasted great but we would have liked some more toppings on the chips at the bottom), salvadorean fish tacos (loved the crispy tofu and the tartar sauce combo in this one) and their icecream and ice cream float (can be skipped).

I’ve been here a couple of times and I love it so much that I keep forgetting to leave my review. The atmosphere is wonderful. The idea of grabbing a bite and playing board games is perfect.
