My pick for the finest friendly local game store in the whole country. Super nice owners and employees, HUGE play area, equally huge, comprehensive stock (they've got everything...).

There are no finer a game shop around Portland than here. Love the vast number of tables and the games you can play inside the "Adult" room. The prices here are also good.

I can't believe how big this place is! So many board games, plus they have a bar in back if you want to have a beer while playing.

Helpful staff, but neither pushy or mansplainy. If they don’t have a particular game, they usually can order it for you.

If you are with a kid and want a drink, you can always leave it in the bar area.
