    This is my favorite place in town to go! There milkshakes have always been the best in town and the store is upgrading everyday it seems! Today I had a pleasant surprise when I went in, they had 3 arcade mechanics that cost nothing to play! Not even a quarter! Last time I was there they only had one mechanic. I got the orange creamsicle milkshake (freakshake) and it tasted so good totally worth the $10!🍨❤❤❤

    I recently had the pleasure of visiting Goblin and Goblets, and I was blown away by the amazing combination of a board game store and a restaurant. The staff at Goblin and Goblets are incredibly friendly and passionate about their offerings, whether it be games or food. The board game selection is fantastic, with a wide variety of games for all ages and skill levels. The staff are knowledgeable and always happy to recommend a game that fits your interests and preferences. The store is also well-stocked with a range of gaming accessories and supplies. The restaurant is equally impressive, with a cozy and inviting atmosphere and a delicious menu that is sure to satisfy. The food is expertly prepared and presented, and the menu features a range of options to suit all tastes and dietary needs. I particularly enjoyed the unique cocktails and craft beers on offer, which perfectly complemented my meal. The combination of a board game store and a restaurant is truly unique and creates an incredible atmosphere. Whether you're looking for a fun night out with friends or a family-friendly dining experience, Goblin and Goblets has it all. Overall, I highly recommend Goblin and Goblets to anyone looking for a unique and memorable dining and gaming experience. Thank you, Goblin and Goblets, for providing such an amazing and enjoyable experience!

    ***Edit: I felt the need to edit and update my review following a recent drop in quality of service. My family and I have been to Goblets and Goblins about 4 times before and had great times. But hopefully our recent visit was an off day and not a sign of things to come. The wait for our food to arrive following our order was an hour. This was not a peak busy time, it was a Sunday afternoon. The food itself was okay, the biggest notable change food wise was the fries seemed to have changed, which was disappointing (I talked those up to few people). I myself had also had the Nashville hot chicken sandwich with the highest level of hot sauce, which was presented as a challenge of some sort. The sandwich itself was alright. There was talk of free ice cream for finishing it with a certain time. But no one checked in on us to verify anything, so I never got any. A chef did come out to see how it was, which was appreciated. Im pretty easy to please, I don’t expect to be waited on at all times and coddled. I’m leaving my original rating and review below but it does feel like things have changed in such a short period of time that I hope it reaches the right person to avoid any further degradation. ***** My family and I had lunch at Goblets and Goblins and it was a fantastic experience. The staff was very friendly, helpful, and accommodating, taking care of any questions or requests we had. The food was also really great, the smash burgers were delicious. The fries were stand outs especially, with a crisp texture and great seasoning. My daughter absolutely loved the mac and cheese, and she can be a bit of a picky eater. While we didnt partake in any games, the selection is vast and has options for just about any genre. We will definitely be visiting for many game sessions

    Lovely place! A great spot to spend a couple of hours with friends, on a date or with family. We have been coming here for about a year, they have a great selection of drinks (including allergy sensitive options) and there are some great unheard of games. Milkshakes are also fantastic and a good set up. Most people don't know about it downtown so it's really a gem of a spot 😊

    I can't say enough good things about Goblets & Goblins. The atmosphere is every geek/nerd's dream, and even if you don't vibe with that, it's still welcoming for anyone of any age. Their music choice is also top notch - from The All American Rejects to the Lion King soundtrack - it's all head boppin' goodness! On top of being a board game cafe/restaurant with a great selection of games, their food is actually delicious with big portion sizes and fair pricing. My personal faves - the chicken sandwich, smash burger and fried cheese curds. My bf's faves - unicorn milkshake and poutine. Fun local sodas with interesting flavours too! The staff are always incredibly friendly and make you feel like you're amongst friends. Don't sleep on their events either. They're planned out and thoughtful, and great fun for anyone. We personally went for all 3 LOTR trivia nights and had a blast. Perfect balance of challenging and fun! There are lots of events suitable for anyone, from competitive puzzle nights to DnD camps. It's a great way to get the community together. This is me and my boyfriend's go-to on chill dates for delicious food and a good time. (Photos from 2 different visits, the pot pie, Lembas bread and cocktails were LOTR night exclusive). In my dreams, their Lembas bread would be available regularly!

    Pretty Awesome Milkshakes!! Presentation is awesome and tasty as hell! I got the Creamsickle Milkshake and even the milkshake itself tasted like Creamsickle. And YES, that's a full ACTUAL Creamsickle on top - AWESOME! Only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because of the price - it is a little pricey in my opinion, but as a treat?? Perfect.

    Wonderful location to cozy up with some friends and nerd out! The decorations are awesome, the staff is friendly, and there's a great selection of board games. My favorite thing however is the layout - I don't want to leave after sitting down.

    Great atmosphere and really wonderful service!! Love the idea of this place and just having a place to hang out and play with friends or family, not in the house was fun. The "No bad days" milkshake was super delicious and like a whole meal itself. The other food was very basic and not the best, but perfect for a snack while you play whatever games you want! I will definitely be going back!

    Loved visiting this place with a friend today. Such a vast selection of games, drinks food and great staff who can guide you through their menu and games. An amazing way to spend a weekend evening now that it's getting colder outside. Will definitely be revisiting with a bigger group. Reservations during weekend would be a good idea.

    The owners are wonderful and kind, the atmosphere is welcoming and cozy and they’ve got a great and growing collection of games. One of my favourite spots to go with friends, the menu is a lot of fun (especially the milkshakes) and has quite the variety. Whether you want a coffee or a cocktail they’ve got you covered. Keep killing it, will be coming back again and again!

This space is perfect to host corporate events / staff parties too. Drop by and see for yourself! We’ll be back thanks guys for a fun evening!

    Dined in this past Saturday evening with a couple buddies. We were brought to a table within minutes, and seated with menus. Was told by wait staff they'd be back in a few minutes to take our order - 45 min to an hour passed before coming back to our table, and nearly the same for the food to arrive. Atmosphere was rather loud given the day and time, so it was hard to flag anyone down. The table next to us (who sat down 10 min after us) were asked twice if they were helped, before we were even remembered about. Please be more attentive to customers. Maybe provide tables with a booklet of pencil games like Tic-Tac-Toe to pass the time? Food made this rating a 3-star!

    We’ve been here a few times and love it! The new location is great. Great selection of board games and food, and lots of space for large groups! Everyone is really friendly and welcoming!

    I came in to show them how to play Genesis and they were super kind. Got a vanilla latte and actually finished it. Lol. I loved the vibe of the place. Definitely a good place to enjoy your favorite events.

  • 5/5 Franky C. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place for boardgame, TCG, TTRPG, and various other game activities. To start, the owners are incredibly friendly and welcoming. They make efforts to ensure guests feel comfortable in the shop. Food and drinks menu is creative and often fits the season. Milkshake for summer, pumpkin related items for fall, etc. They're also very generous with the portion and fits the price reasonably. Game selection is average. Most of the big-name boardgames are available, though some lesser known indie titles may be missing. Their game library is growing nonetheless. For TCG, they have a pretty massive collection. The store often hosts various events for the community. Kids camp, trivia night, game tournament are just some examples. Overall this is a store I recommend to my friends, and have been revisiting regularly.

    Great place to hang out and play games. I only stopped by for a few minutes but there are a plethora of board games to play. Not to mention cool drinks that are freshly made. I also witnessed a D&D tutorial being taught to some kids in the back, who seemed to be having a blast!!! I will definitely comeback for some games another date.

😠 If you look through my reviews over the years, all but a couple are 5 stars. I understand things aren't perfect anywhere you go. I do like to throw 5 stars when they are deserved. We have been Montana fans for years, its a safe pic for us never having a bad meal. This weekend we were out of town...
