I’ve been to both this Draughts and the Hackney branch and I love them both. They are really nice, relaxed environments, the people who work there are lovely and happy to talk you through a new game, the range of games is great and the food and drink selection is really good quality too. I can’t recommend enough for those who like or would like to get into games.

Absolutely fabulous concept for a restaurant. Very friendly staff and a reasonable selection of food. Has a young and trendy feel and a unique atmosphere with a board game theme where you actually get to play the board games. This is a must for visitors and and party groups looking for that something special that you will talk about for ages. Please note that this restaurant is young and trendy and squirrelled away under a tunnel full of artist who spray can in to express themselves. It has to be seen to be believed.

I love this place, it's a great social spot. This is my 3rd time at the Waterloo branch over the years and I always recommend it as it's great fun being able to play games whilst eating good food/drinks. Always a good option to avoid awkward silences too as everyone is engaged in the game- so I would not only recommend you come here with friends but also people you don't know well like new colleagues, dates...etc. Theres a range of board game options (6 per person for whole session), good food range including vegan options where I tried the vegan fish and chips and it exceeded my expectations was so tasty and the chips were very crispy too- I wish I had complimented the chef on the dish! Great atmosphere and staff very friendly. Only thing I wish we had a longer session but like most restaurants now you have 2hrs for a table but still great fun! Note that the location is within a tunnel with art sprayed all over- very cool!

Had a couple of wonderful visits, as a couple and with the kid. Friendly team, lovely drinks and snacks and a great library. Happily played family games and got some heavy Euros in when just the two of us. Looking forward to returning after lockdown

Nice place but no one says that you will have to pay 7 per person for playing! Which is crazy, we were six so we could have bought most of the games twice for that price! The food is okay and the people was really kind. We had a nice time but we didn’t play which was a shame because there aren’t many options regarding food as the whole point is playing.

Great business set in a unique location on Leake St in the magnificent graffiti tunnel under Waterloo. Excellent board game collection and friendly, knowledgeable staff. Nice selection of beers as well. I hope to be able to return soon!

Brilliant place. Great selection of games ranging from the very simple to extremely complex. Good for two people, great for groups. Fantastic food, vegan friendly. Great selection of beverages hot and cold. Full recommendation.

Another place were prices are higher compared to before the pandemic. I really cannot stand businesses taking it up to their customer if they can allow less people because of new regulations. I loved the place but these things make me sick.
