    One of the few shops in London where you can get Magic: The Gathering cards (but only sealed and new editions)

    A special shop for game fans, detailing complexity, length and aggression levels that each game requires, and leads to. All you have to do is ask.

    It's a small shop, but with a great selection of board games and RPGs. Definitely a must visit if you are in the hobby!

    Best place near Soho for boardgames and card games. Most of the games we play at the SCEE boardgame socials are purchased from here. Read more
