Crema's Take
“The $5 game pass deal (with a $10 food minimum) makes this the most affordable way to spend an afternoon surrounded by board games and genuinely enthusiastic staff who double as game guides. The food punches above typical cafe weight—think yucca fries and plantains alongside solid coffee and mocktails—so you're not just tolerating the food while you play, you're actually looking forward to it. It's the rare spot that nails the balance between casual hangout and properly fun event space, drawing everyone from birthday crews to NYE parties.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

Wonderful board game cafe with a great atmosphere. Really nice food and drink selection- we had some yucca fries and delicious coffees and mocktails. The cafe team was so sweet and the owner taught us to play a fun new game. Can’t wait to come back.
This place is amazing! We went for their NYE event and had such a great time. They didn't over book so there was space for everyone to play, plenty of options on the buffet, from appetizers, entree and sweets, all of which were amazing. The board game selection is also great.…
First time here and definitely coming back! Came in to celebrate a friends birthday and we ended up playing Puerto Rican bingo. Food was delicious and so were the drinks.
