Great place for everyone, very extensive selection of board games. You need to pay extra for games as expected.
The latte is good, nothing special but good. There are lots of chairs and comfy couches.
Really cool place to relax and play a game or 2 with friends and family. Many tables and comfortable seating options available for different play styles. Wide selection of games. Clean location. 4 toilets available. Deals available to invite people to use space for working. Events frequently offered so you can find a new friend or 2.
We had a day out to the Dice and a Slice, we took the family which included the very small people. Place was tidy and well presented and the person working till gave us an overview of where we would find everything.
The board game selection is massive, although the ones suitable for small people as you would perhaps expect is far smaller. Kids enjoyed the ones we played, and thankfully all contents were there. Table we was on was plenty big enough to spread out as well.
We had some warm drinks fairly early on, mostly hot chocolates (orange one was very nice!) Lunch was perhaps a little more of a mixed bag, jacket potato's were good but some of the other meals didn't quite hit the mark unfortunately. Perhaps need a few more kid friendly options on the menu to. Kids weren't keen on the milkshakes, and to be fair I tried one and was a bit disappointed too.
We had a good time, and a perfect option if you don't want to be stuck inside at home / weather not great outside...!
A cosy little place to lounge with friends, have a coffee and play some board games. The food was really good and we loved the hot chocolate. Very friendly staff and this place had a huge collection of board games to choose from!
Love coming in here when I visit Colchester. Loads of games to try and play and reasonably priced coffee and cake.
This is our favourite place to go on our days off. My partner and I visit at least once a week. Incredible selection of Board games available to play and staff that are obviously familiar with many of them and are passionate. The space is great and whether it's busy or not, and it's a very good price for hours of fun.
If you get hungry through the day they have a great selection of sandwiches and jacket potatoes and cakes to keep you going.
Spot on! First time but won't be the last, staff are friendly and food was delicious. HUGE range of games for all age ranges.. Thoroughly enjoyed our day there. Thank you
Walked past on my way to Colchester Castle with family and thought it looked like the kind of place I’d like to visit, but sadly wouldn’t be able to at the time due to having other plans.
On our way back from the castle and park my 4 year old announced she needed the toilet so we popped inside and asked if we could use the facilities. Staff were very friendly and helpful, directing us to the toilets without any issues.
As my visit only involved using the loo, I can’t comment on the quality of the food, but I can say the toilets were very good; spacious and inclusive, which I always like to see.
Cake on the counter looked yummy and I would have liked to have had time to stop and get some, as well as having a quick game as the place looked very nice and inviting.
Will try to visit again properly in future!
Really great place, had a friends birthday here, loads of games to play, good food, found some cracking boardgames and had a great time
Love this place! Excellent selection of games both to play in the café & to buy to take home. You can pay to play the games for an hour or the whole day. Best to choose your game before you pay if you're only playing for an hour though. The drinks, cakes & food are all excellent. Lovely choice. Good variety including gluten free options and all very reasonably priced. The staff are all very friendly & helpful and there is a lovely atmosphere as a result.
