  • "Lovely selection of food and drinks."
  • "The food was lovely and shop was really well set up."
  • "An amazing treasure trove of a store! Could easily spend all my time here, love my new dice."

  • "Space is open, warm and clean."
  • "This place is a hidden gem in Nottingham."

Cons:

  • "The experience was very much ruined by the lack of management of the kids and teenagers running around."
  • "The games on selection to play was also quite limited."
  • "Their food selection is basic, the interior is in serious need of decorating and they don't even serve alcohol! XD"
  • "Some games are old, missing pieces and falling apart."
  • "Tables are very tired, which is a shame and chairs are not the most comfortable."
  • "The furniture is a bit old and the toilets might need a rework but that stuff comes with time."
  • "However, size of windows makes temperature regulation tricky and it is often sweltering in the summer and quite chilly during the winter."

Food & Drink

Pros:

  • "The food and drink is a bit pricey but was very nice (you'd never know it was vegan)."

  • "Food we tried was delicious and coffee drinks were yummy as well!"

Cons:

  • "Unfortunately this place had really really garbage vegan food."
  • "Found several hairs in different items of food."
  • "The panini was terrible and just inedible, the burger was ok, and the chips were awful."
  • "However, the food is pretty lacklustre, and they only serve vegan. Drink options are terrible."

  • "While the price for entry is cheap, the additional prices for drinks and food can be high, especially for their average quality."
