The Baird Cafe & Lounge

Really nice place! We were visiting South Orange for a day and stopped at the place for a lunch. Food was good, prices good and it's really well located. We even were able to take a sit outside because we were with out puppy. Inside there're many board games, so if you're visiting with friends – you can have a good time. On top of that the personell was really nice and friendly. If by any chance I'll be again in South Orange – I'll come back for sure.

Very cute cafe. Friendly staff. I enjoyed their fries. A nice place to hang out for all ages. Loved the board game selection. Would definitely visit again.

Awesome board game collection, and they are free to play! The founder even helped us pick out good games for our family and helped by answering some of our questions. Totally fantastic!

Large cafeteria with games and activities for the community. Staff is attentive and courteous with lots of activities within the facility.

The board game cafe at the new Baird Center is really fantastic. They have dozens and dozens of board games, from family friendly to heavier strategy games. The staff are really nice and the owners are happy to help you figure out the rules for a new game. They don't even have a cover charge or hourly fee to play the games, so support them by getting food or the Paper Plane coffee from the cafe! Everything is priced extremely reasonably.
