Tuesdays are Free Stay 'N Play with purchase from menu. Wednesday nights are Open Gaming (get matched up with other small groups or individuals - great way to meet new people and friends).

Probably my favourite place in Ottawa. Hot chocolate was great. Perfect for groups and dates. Great staff also! Highly recommended!

Kyle Turner

Lots of games! We even found a new game that was great (check out Anomia)! The service was good (staff took themselves a bit too seriously) but the drink selection isn't huge

Shalynn H.

Great for a couple or group. $5+tax cover per person. Be prepared for a wait list on Friday night, but they will call you when your table opens up. I highly recommend this place!

Reena B-S

They now have gluten-free options. Tables have glass tops and shelves underneath, perfect for storing food or board game boxes while you play.

Hina

Great selection of board games ! A fun way to spend an evening. It can get a bit loud sometimes, especially in the evenings and on weekends.

The Loft Board Game Lounge

Our busiest times are Fridays and Saturdays after 8. We don't take reservations , so if you want to make sure you get a table, try to come in before 7!

Colin Brown

Wide-selection of board games , decent beer/wine list and menu, and relaxing atmosphere . Would be a good spot for a double date

David Ramalho

Great for groups of 2-6. There aren't any large circular tables for bigger groups to comfortably play a game. Delicious baked snacks , but small beer selection .

linnie

A great option for anyone who doesn't want to get drunk and go dancing with the university students. Amazing bar food!

Jessica Caseley

Lots of board games , super friendly staff , good food.. On busy nights the wait to get a table wasn't bad (less than 15 minutes)

Mari Olmedo

Ok so, we arrived outside the main door with slices of pizza and a sandwich because we were really hungry after a long day of tourist attractions , and a guy asked us to go eat on the street.

Boni Dean

Best place to spend an afternoon playing crib or monopoly!!! Lots of variety!

They have a new place called Level One downstairs now - it's equally as fun.

Nice selection of games and video games ! However, only 4 hours during weekends:(

Food is good, drinks are ok, the games are awesome.

Better than the Byward location! Friendly staff. The hot chocolate was okay. Crepe was hard, but pretty good. Aesthetically pleasing. I'd definitely go back! - Charysse G. R
