Meeple Valley Board Game Cafe

Best $7 (each) I’ve spent in a while! My husband and I love board games and we love to play new ones without having to buy them first (then find out we hate them). They have a great library of games to play and an awesome selection of games to buy. They also have snacks and drinks for a super reasonable price. Super friendly and helpful, their gaming tables are awesome. We had a great time and will be back.

This is a wonderful business. There are lots of tabletop products, minis, paint, books, and tons of card and board games. The prices are good! It's very affordable to rent table space for the day and try out board games! You can play as long as you want,and this lets you try boardgames before you buy them. Definitely come here with some friends to play and support a good local business. I definitely want this place to stay open. They also have lots of events and groups you can join. Check them out!

It's an awsome lil store. Owners are very nice and the atmosphere is pretty chill. Highly recommend.

One of the best board game shops around. You can sit and play any of over 200 board games in their library. The shop is very clean and is run by very friendly staff. I will be back soon!

Great place to have fun, play game's of all variety including boardgames, RPG and more. Game rentals and for purchase. Lots of tables. Open every day. The owner operators are great, friendly and you could come in off the street and start playing. Cheaper than going to the movies or out to eat and twice as fun. Meet awesome people and make friendships along the way.

Rob and Bob are awesome and the game selection in the library cannot be beat. Pay one low price for a day full of gaming with any game in the library, or buy a game to take home.

Super happy to have a local boardgame cafe/shop! Great selection of boardgames to play and buy! The space is nice and the owner is friendly. We'll definitely be back regularly!

Board game cafes the new #1 fun first date place. Love this even place! #1 simply for the ability to explore and try out their massive board game library for a very economical cost.

I love this place! Welcoming staff and full of friendly people. There’s a great selection of games for sale that are very well displayed. I’m definitely coming back to do my Christmas shopping!

So cool to have a place like this in Modesto! Wide selection of fantastic games, both available in their library and for purchase. Owners are super friendly too!

Meeple Valley has been a breath of fresh air for the folks of Modesto. Day by day we see the value of "third places"--as in not work/school or home where folks can spend time, becoming more and more important. Meeple Valley is a safe, fun place where you can make friends, try new things, and spend time with your loved ones without having to stress about 'what will we do' or 'does the living room look nice enough' or 'what if we get hungry'? With the addition of snacks and beverages available for purchase, along with a Mexican restaurant next door that delivers, and the most wonderful hosts in Bob and Rob you can take it easy and have a great time. The entry fee is affordable, the monthly membership is a deal, and the memories will last a lifetime.

Very lovely people! We got to meet the creator of a game we were interested in, she was wonderful. We bought some games and were able to play them right then and there at the tables. If we wanted to try out a game before buying, theres a big library of board games to be able to play too! Such a cool place.

Meeple Valley is a hidden gem! We were visiting from out of town and stumbled across this place—so glad we did. The staff were incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home. Their game library is fantastic, with a wide variety of titles for all types of players. Whether you're into strategy games, party games, or something in between, you'll find something to enjoy here. The atmosphere was welcoming, relaxed, and perfect for spending an afternoon or evening gaming. Highly recommended for locals and travelers alike!

Super comfortable and welcoming game (nerd) store. They have a huge game library so you can grab a table and play for 7 bucks each! All of the employees were helpful and kind. POPS Comics Board games Dice Figurines. Great for date night or BFF get together. They have snacks and drinks for sale.

Absolutely fantastic local game store! For $7 you can come in and play board games all day long, using their broad board game library. The AC is rock solid, so it's super comfortable in there If you're looking to get into DnD (Dungeons and Dragons) or any other tabletop role playing games, this is the BEST place in town, hands down. Go join their Discord that's listed on their website, there are DMs constantly recruiting to play games, mostly in the 5e DnD system. If you're nervous about playing because you're afraid that players won't be welcoming to someone brand new, don't worry at all, everyone is extremely supportive 10/10 place, I'm here at least once a week to play DnD games with friends I met here
