I keep going back! Since "discovering this place with one friend group, I've been back every week with a different group. They must have hundreds of games and Shaun was so knowledgeable about so many of them. He explains the rules so simply that you don't have to be intimidated by then. The snacks and drinks round out the feeling of an at home game night without the cleanup! Great experience.

OMG OMG OMG! What a great place to spend a few hours with your friends. First of all, the pricing is very cheap (6$ per person for 3-4 hours) and the food/alcohol/coffee/desserts aren't pricey as well.
Then the team is fantastic. They show a lot of enthusiasm and patience in explaining you the rules of the games especially if you are trying a new game.
Shaun and Jeannette make sure that you have a wonderful experience. Very kind and very knowledgeable team.
Finally, a great collection of games and overall, a highly recommended place.

Came here for a chill Friday date night, they have a HUGE selection of games! The people working here are also so kind to help you understand any game without having to read through instruction manuals.
The menu has a good number of food options, we got the chai tea latte with the brownie cake (ok-ish tbh).
Would come again for a fun night of bots games, signed up for a 45 min slot, and ended up going nearly 1.5hrs :)

My family and friends have being frequenting this spot since the beginning and have always had an excellent time.
The two owners are knowledgable and friendly and are able to recommend and explain new games to you based on ones that you already know.
They offer a very welcoming atmosphere that appeals to friends, families and an interesting date spot.
During the pandemic, their weekend game rentals offered a cheap and fun way to stay off screen while spending time with the people you care about.
Now in stage 3, they maintained the same level of customer care with an emphasis on minimizing touch

My husband and I went for lunch today for his birthday, great atmosphere and staff was very helpful. They take the time and explain the game, which was explained so well we only needed to look back at the directions when calculating our score at the end! Look forward to visiting again and trying a new game

I went to Games on Tap for the first time tonight. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the game selection was amazing! My friend and I very much enjoyed playing the Friends Trivia game, and I loved my… decaf Nutella Latte! Next time I'll need to try the peanut butter mousse, because that looked delicious! I can't wait to come back! Thanks for the great experience!!
