    Great selection of boardgames to play & buy. You can bring in your own drinks/snacks and the $5 cover charge can be used towards any game you decide to purchase. They have a new and used section - they can see your old boardgames for you for store credit. Staff were super friendly and allowed us to stay an extra 20 min past closing. *Note - The picture is of a game purchased there. The space doesn't actually have carpets or a couch.

    Nov2022 Update: in store gaming is now allowed. Cost is $5 per person and the fee can be applied as a credit towards a purchase if made on the same day. Sep2022 Update: Still a great board game store with the widest selection of games around and competitive prices. The new space is bright and cheery with a whole wall devoted to used games sold on consignment. ------------------- One of the best board game retailers in the GTA, if not the best. The store carries the widest range of boardgames in the GTA (more titles than even 401 Games), some not available otherwise, and has excellent, friendly customer service. The store's website loads well on phones, is easy to navigate, and showcases new releases.

    Clean and well organized place. Shopped online and picked up from the store. Lots of parking, and looks like it would be a great night of game-playing on their games night. Do check out their online sales. They also sell used games in-store as well.

    Absolutely fantastic game store! Their selection, service, store presentation and prices are all A+. I discovered this store searching in Google Shopping for a certain board game, and then again for Magic sealed product. I had no idea they were like 5 minutes down the road from my office. Their selection of tabletop and board games, and sealed Magic: The Gathering is really great! They have pretty much every board game or Magic product I've wanted to buy available online and in-store. The staff is friendly and helpful, and knows their product so they can quickly find something. They have a good website that shows their up-to-date product availability with in-store pick up or shipping options. Even offering pre-orders on upcoming releases! However, I have noticed they don't put everything online right away - so sometimes the website will say "out of stock" but they actually have stock. So I strongly recommend visiting or calling to see if they actually have something you're looking for - you might be pleasantly surprised! Their prices are all really fair on everything from board games to collectible card games to accessories like playmats and card sleeves. It's a really clean store with a half dozen tables for board games or card games. I haven't played any games or participated in events in the store yet but this would be a nice environment to play in! I can't recommend this store enough. They're great!

    Haven't been there physically, but I frequently order Online. They have better prices than any of the stores I've been to in Quebec and everything is always shipped quickly and super well packed. They've quickly grown to be the very first place I check whenever I want a new board game. Thanks!

    Fair Prices, Excellent customer service, Quality Shipping. My orders only had minor issues, and the support team was amazing, resolved my issues promptly and fairly. Would absolutely recommend to anyone who is just starting their board game collection or looking to grow their existing collection. Free shipping with a minimum order is great and highly recommended when ordering.

    A huge selection of games at a great price. I love how they also have used games for sale with lots of info (condition, coming from a pet or smoking household). Will definitely be coming back.

    When I order board games online they always arrive in great condition and in a timely manner. They have the best selection prices and customer service. The best board game store ever :)

    Couldn’t be happier ordering, live in the GTA, made a purchase Wednesday and received game Friday. Super well packaged and flashbox is a great shipping service with tracking. One of the largest ranges of games offered in the province from what I can tell. Can’t comment on retail storefront but planning on visiting soon!

    Drove all the way from Peterborough and turns out it’s closed for an employee dinner. Notice on google or on your site would have been helpful and saved me a trip.

  • 5/5 shaver t. 1 year ago on Google
    Really nice and clean store that you would never notice unless already knew it was there. I tried to order a few games online from them and the checkout was having issues so I decided to take the short drive. The store was quiet on a weekday after 5, one group playing magic, and one guy behind the counter. He was nice and super helpful. I will absolutely choose to come here and support this business in the future.

    Awesome store! Amazing staff! Also the prices are very competitive against other stores. I have to do my best not to spend too much when I am here haha

    Just ordered Mr. Jack online and it came within a week (I live in Ottawa). After spending countless hours looking for a copy, I was glad that these people had one in stock. Buying it online was a straightforward process and I received an email when it was shipped and when I could pick it up. Will buy another board game from this business in the future.

    The place itself was a little difficult to find - Google Maps kept taking me in circles around the building for some reason. It is directly facing West Beaver Creek and is located next to a dance studio. I didn't realize that this place was near me as I have never heard of them before - but they have SUCH a wide selection of games at a very good price. My fiance had been looking for the Dodge City expansion pack of BANG! for soo long. It was often sold together with the original/base game which we already had, and I was so surprised that Board Game Bliss carried it. They only had one left in stock so you're darn right I bought it immediately! I also made a pre-order for the holiday Here to Slay expansion pack at the same time. It was very simple and they use another tool to schedule a pickup time. I did arrive earlier than my pickup time and I was still able to pick up the game without any trouble. I asked when my pre-order was supposed to arrive and they were very helpful in trying to help me find it in their system. 10/10 service and experience with my order!

    I rarely write reviews but this board game store is worth it. The staff were so helpful and friendly and they have an excellent selection of fun, hard-to-find games from the likes of Big Potato etc. I like that the website is also accurate and reflects stock well. Overall, clean layout and organization in-store and many prices were surprisingly below typical retail I’ve seen with no apparent sale. Definitely cheaper than Amazon, Indigo etc. This has become my new favourite go-to board game store.

  • 5/5 Micah N. 1 year ago on Google
    Board Game Bliss prices are great but I'm giving it low stars because pre-pandemic, they had a retail space where I could come in and purchase without paying for shipping. Post pandemic, they seem to have shifted to a warehouse type business and their curb side pick up times are only 3 weekdays a week for like 4 hours each day (2pm-6pm), unfortunately hours I work. I know I'm in the minority of being unhappy about the lack of retail space or even better pick up times on the weekend. EDIT: They've reopen their retail SPACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    We went there to look at games and possibly get a recommendation, but the staff barely greeted us and never came to check up on us to see if we needed any help. After 20 minutes of browsing, we simply decided to leave and go to the other local board game store. Very disappointed since the store is nice and has a good selection of pre-owned games.

  • 5/5 Andy T. 9 months ago on Google
    Typically has one of the most competitive prices overall compared to other local game stores in the GTA, often competing closely with 401Games for best prices. Had an excellent trouble-free customer support experience in which they addressed a months-past order that involved them delivering the incorrect items upon pickup. They were able to rectify the situation by owning up to their mistake.

  • 5/5 Its m. 11 months ago on Google
    Great local game store with fair prices and sells games not usually found elsewhere in the GTA. Been going here for a few years now. Store front is not the biggest, doesn't carry everything in stock on it's shelves, so best to check online for availability. I like the pre-owned section as well.

  • 5/5 Hugo G. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing store, they have a lot of boardgame and the price is really good. Shipping is fast and the customer service is amazing. This is my go to store for the boardgame.

  • 3/5 travelingbyfrenchtraveler 1 year ago on Google
    You can buy, sell and play games at Board Game Bliss. It's a good place but gave 3 stars bc they're low stock in games I was looking for with no ETA.

  • 5/5 Jared P. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent selection, fantastic service, and a great all around store. My go-to for all things gaming related. I especially enjoy the variety of games imported from other countries, I can't think of another company in Canada that does this. So with confidence, a great store.

  • 5/5 Steven R. 1 year ago on Google
    Reasonable pricing Great selection Great customer service Interest in satisfying buyer in a friendly timely manner Shipping through Canada Post is slow. Not their fault. Thank you for a positive experience. Been a long time since I have ordered anything outside of Amazon. I saved $60 on buying 2 games hrough them.

  • 5/5 Keswick P. 10 months ago on Google
    Board game prices here in Quebec are marked up significantly more than elsewhere in Canada. At these super low prices, buying from here is a no brainer. They have a great selection with a lot of discounts. I also appreciate the fact that they're willing to hold your order for up 3 months so that you can reach the free shipping threshold by adding on to your purchase within that time frame.

  • 5/5 JH R. 1 year ago on Google
    Wonderful and caring customer service with a great catalog of games. I ordered during a busy period expecting to wait for a bit, but the delivery arrived extremely quickly.

  • 1/5 Alex C. 1 year ago on Google
    I preordered one of the new MTG Compleat Bundles from Board Game Bliss as their online store still listed them in stock. These are now selling for $20-30 more (at different stores) than what I paid them. They just cancelled my order and gave me some of their in-store points, not even enough for $5 off a purchase, for my troubles. This extremely unprofessional and wildly insulting to offer a preorder that they cannot fulfill and not even provide any way for me to get my product at the new price. I will not be ordering from them again

  • 5/5 Yvonne 1 year ago on Google
    Staff is super knowledgeable & love the clean layout. You have to go just to check out the long wall of used games for sale. Happy 2 support our friendly local game store.

  • 5/5 Kevin L. 1 year ago on Google
    What an incredible community gem of a gaming community. Our family had a wonderful time this afternoon playing a sealed deck at the store (we purchased the cards there and used their gaming space). The store is very family friendly (3 adults, 3 teens) and we enjoyed playing magic the gathering at the store. Spacious and clean, they even have some space to play games that you purchase / bring there. I believe they are starting up some commander events. Pricing for products was excellent and they had a good selection. Highly recommend that you check them out.

    Great selection of Kickstarter board games. The staff always answers questions in a timely manner especially with online orders. Opening an account is worth it.
