Gather and Play Cafe

“Such a wonderful business run by genuinely kind people that enjoy the small community they are apart of (tcg, games, ect). I’ve only recently started going to this store for TCG products, and most of the time I go it’s only just to take a quick peek at what they got, so I’m definitely not considered a regular/anything remotely similar to that… I’ve been in there like 3 times before LOL—yet the two women I spoke to today (I believe they both own the store) treated me with such kindness and made me feel extremely welcome. A perfect example of why this store feels like a genuine community/is extremely welcoming, aka the reason I decided to write this review: One of the women, the one at the register, immediately noticed that I am pregnant as I walked in, congratulated me, and gave me a baby blanket product as a gift before I could even say anything—out of nowhere. Obviously that was such a sweet thing to do for a stranger/customer (me) anyway, but what these two women didn’t know, is that I’ve been going through the ROUGHEST time right now in my life due to so many things (too many to name lol) and their completely random act of kindness really meant the world to me. So, naturally I teared up at the gift while thanking her and the woman asked if I wanted a hug, gave me one, and talked to me for a few minutes (about babies and grandchildren, ect) like I’m wasn’t just a random customer shopping for TCG. Sorry for the long review haha—but, thank you guys for being the kindness in the world that I hope to see more of from others, especially when it was done so effortlessly while making such a big impact at the same time.”

“Dropped in for the first time tonight to play Magic and was very nervous as a super new player. The staff were incredible, so kind and inviting. There were amazing people there who were so nice and happy to play with a newbie. There were Pride flags inside the store that instantly made me feel safe. Beyond thrilled I’ve found a LGS with such a positive vibe!”

“It's nice to have a local game store to play magic at! The place has a great atmosphere and customer service is good. Spend most of my Friday nights there with friends or new people just slinging spells!”

“I stopped by here and had such a great experience. The owners were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and took the time to have a genuine chat with me. I will most definitely be back!”
