Neat spot! I came earlier in the morning around 9 and appreciated the gentle mood music playing overhead so that I could work on some things on my laptop. As the day progressed toward lunch time it seemed like the music got louder but maybe it was just the additional people that were visiting! Seems like a cool place to plat board games with friends. I would come again!

What a really cool idea! We visited from Maryland with our daughter and son in law and look forward to many more visits. The selection of board and card games is incredible, I would never have guessed there was that may games in the entire world! Must be thousands on their shelves to choose from to play while enjoying a beer with friends or family. I recommend NOT drinking until you find the game you really like and learn the rules of that game! Only after getting started should you go grab a beer. A little alcohol goes a long way to making the rules of a new game harder to understand!!! 😉 Price to play was inexpensive. Their beer selection is not huge but they have something for everyone, it is decent beer and well priced. They have food but it is not something to rave about. None of it was bad. Think of it as something to snack on while playing games. Pretzel Bites and chicken tenders were what we ordered. The atmosphere is loud and fun as everyone around you is having a great time. They also have games for sale if you find a game you really enjoyed. This is certainly a place to go if you like beer and board/card games.

What a cool place. The amount of games was overwhelming for me and didn’t recognize most of them but it’s a pretty chill place. Beers and snacks. Perfect place to go with friends or on a date. I’ll be back

Board game cafe, what a fantastic concept! Such a fun experience for only $10. I can't wait to come back again. Many many board games to choose from. You can stay as long or as little as you like. We ended up playing two board games in the nearly three hours we were there. Drinks are also offered, both alcoholic and nonalcoholic, on tap and in the fridge.

Hex & Company: A Game of Two Halves Hex & Company, a quirky blend of board game cafe and retail store, is a delightful haven for gamers and coffee enthusiasts alike. The eclectic decor and inviting atmosphere create a unique and enjoyable experience. The coffee, a caffeinated concoction that rivals the best of them, was a perfect pick-me-up. And the cheesecake pumpkin slice? A divine dessert that would make even the most discerning pastry chef swoon. The staff, for the most part, were friendly and helpful, guiding us through the labyrinth of board games and coffee options. However, our experience took a turn for the worse on a second visit later that day when a staff member, perhaps having a particularly rough day or perhaps just a bit too invested in board game etiquette, confronted one of our group members for browsing the games without prior permission and renting. It was a bit like a librarian scolding a child for touching a book. While it's understandable that the establishment has rules to ensure a fair and enjoyable experience for all patrons, the way the situation was handled could have been more tactful. A gentler approach, perhaps with a friendly reminder about the rental process, would have been more effective than the hostile approach we received from her. Despite this minor hiccup, Hex & Company remains a charming place to spend an afternoon. Just remember to play by the rules, check with the staff before touching anything, or risk the wrath of the board game gods.

Friendly staff, good selection of games (to play or purchase) and delicious food options -- I really enjoy the hot honey chicken sandwich. Updating this to include the tuna melt and the tater tots as delicious too! Great range of alcoholic, soft and hot beverages available -- the hot chocolate and the cider are both really good. $10 per person to play all day or $5 each for students, which is reasonable but it's a shame they don't have a minimum food spend for free play offer. They are however, happy to fill your reusable cup for the cost of a small sized drink!

I really really enjoyed this place. We arrived late, but still got in an hour to enjoy the games, plus after 7pm you can park in the bus lanes so I was directly in front of the store. The ambiance is very relaxing. And I ended up with the drink something 75 lol, it was great though!

Was disappointed that I spent $15 to only play board games for two hours. The staff knew they had an event at 6:30 pm and didn’t think to mention that we would only have 2 ish hours to play before they kicked us out despite the 11 pm closure. Also very cold inside and there was no heater where we were sat (literally next to the door on a 23F day!!!)

Today, we were charged $15 per person, including for my 3 year old, after we were told there were appropriate games and puzzles for my kids to use. However, there were no puzzles available unless I purchased the puzzle first and then the game my other daughter wanted to play (Sleeping Queens) was nowhere to be found and needed to be purchased as well. It was clear this was not a viable experience after 15 minutes but the person working at the front counter refused to give me a refund of the cover charges. Will not be returning, clearly not kid friendly.
