Board Game Cafe will Return!
We offer a full menu of specialty drinks and coffees, crafted by our talented baristas. Fresh, high-quality beans are supplied by a variety of small roasters in the nearby Kansas City, MO area.
The Coffee
I just want coffee. Read your favorite book over a bottomless brew, stop by for a chat and a Chai to go, or work for a bit with a London Fog in hand. There is no cover charge to come in and enjoy your drink and the atmosphere. Playing games is optional! You can choose to play games (or not) at any time. Purchasing a game pass gives access to the game library.
The Library
What if I want more than just coffee? With 500+ board games to choose from, our library includes award-winning titles from Mensa Mind Games, Origins, and Spiel des Jahres. Our Game Gurus are on hand to help you choose a game to match playing abilities and mood. They can also help with set up, teaching the rules, or act as judges when a tough call needs made.
Our Staff
The secret ingredient to our great experience? Our baristas and game gurus.
And while they’ve moved on to better and bigger things, we’ll never forget our legacy staff.
