Caverns & Forests Board Game Café

We went on a Wednesday night while the roads were icy and were surprised to find ourselves the only guests! Although we had different expectations, it became an absolutely perfect date. Matt greeted and seated us, explaining how they operate (lanterns on your table number to "call" for a server, organization of the games, where to place games when finished, how to close out your tab...), and then suavely taught us how to play the game my wife chose.

The food was simple but delicious and perfectly executed, the drink selection small but diverse in taste, and the game selection enormous - something for any and everyone!

My favorite part, in the bizarrely intimate circumstances, were Matt and Radiance's situational awareness. They had a perfect sense of when to interact with us and when to let us enjoy ourselves.

Obviously this was a one-off unique experience. We had to return when the place wasn't empty to get a real feel. So we returned Friday night after the roads had cleared. JAM PACKED. Same great food, same great service. Added benefit of having the opportunity to socialize and play with others.

The significant difference is ambient noise. If you prefer playing in a quiet setting, you'll want to go when it's less busy.

Finally of note, seating options are brilliantly mixed. There are round tables, bench tables, tables for 2, a lounge area, and a bar. Appropriate for any size group playing any type of game!

This place was great. They refilled are drinks multiple times. Everyone on the staff was friendly, and the atmosphere is laid back. Great for D&D or other group games!

If you're into tabletop gaming, board games, or cards, this is a great hangout. The staff is awesome and friendly, tons of games to choose from (or bring your own), and good fresh food choices.

This place is amazing! What a cool idea for a fun evening! They make you feel so completely welcome and at home from the first second you walk in. Not sure what to do? They guide you each step. We will be back again for sure. This will be where we bring friends and family who are visiting from out of town. You have to check this place out!

I wouldn't say that I'm a huge board game person but I play occasionally. I would say this place is really great for folks of all experience levels. It feels they really focus the venue more on being a place to hang out / play vs selling games and I love that everything is marked based on difficulty level and time required. We'll definitely be back, and in greater numbers!! My party went super close to their opening day so I definitely can't wait to see how the business develops.
