This was an awesome find on our last trip, friendly staff, amazing game selection, stuff available for all ages and abilities. The clientele was even super friendly, openly inviting my 9 year old to join their table and check out the game they were playing. Board gamers are the best, and this place was no exception.

Popped in on a whim with the fam on Valentine's weekend. Owner was very welcoming and engaging. The game library alone makes it hard to leave. Cozy, inviting, and inclusive. Planning to return ASAP!

I love the atmosphere here. I enjoy hanging out with friends playing games and this is a great place to hang! Drinks are good and they have good toasts bagels and muffins to keep you fueled up.

Loved this place! Service was great, coffee was delicious and you get pretty big portions for the price. Excellent selection of games and activities and plenty of space to sit. The place and bathrooms were clean and the bathrooms are gender neutral (single toilet) which I liked.

We are so glad we found Critical Grind. Our son loves D&D but it's hard to find a place where he can participate. We have come for the kids D&D as well as had his birthday party here. The DMs are so kind and patient with the (very excited) kids. Excellent, welcoming staff, great cafe snacks and drinks, fun place. One of the birthday party guests asked for the information for his own birthday, so it must have been a great time.

They have free to play board games and gaming tables, delicious toast, great coffee, comfortable furniture and many cool events. The staff and owners are great people! I love hanging out here.

Critical grind is a great place to meet up for a game of DND, sit and chat over a cup of coffee, or just relax. The staff is friendly & knowledgeable about games & coffee. They even have some space setup to be able to play some larger tabletop wargames. Highly recommend if you are looking to meet some friendly new faces, maybe play a ttrpg or board game, and have some good coffee.

I visited today for the first time, although I had been wanting to stop in for months now. The person working who helped me was super sweet and funny and I very much enjoyed their company! I love the laid back inclusive atmosphere they've created here and wish I had more time to peruse their many different games, but I suppose that's just a reason to come back 😉 my coffee and toast were AMAZING and I can't wait to visit again. My companion mentioned that her "mouth was singing" because of how delicious the coffee was 🥰 I really loved my time here and will definitely be back!

This place is so fun! I enjoy a nice, relaxing, low stress environment and this board game cafe really feels cozy. My husband and I stopped in to try their coffee and toast as well as see their super large selection of games! It was AWESOME! I can see myself bringing a couple of friends and doing a DND campaign here. What I love about this place is that it gives off a relaxing home atmosphere. Its an awesome place to meet up with friends or to bring kids and family.

The coffee here is actually delicious with a lot of flavor options!! I got an iced vanilla latte with oatmilk and my husband a hot latte with almond and sf coconut. Cute space and really lovely owner (love a woman-owned business!). Over 700+ board games are available, and I love the concept of the games offered here where there's an option to rent them out. I also love that there's community events. Will definitely be back!
