Nice place with a lovely lady who runs everything. 🙂 (Never really interact with the owner as he mostly plays games upstairs) -edit The owner is also lovely 🙂

My husband and I love board games and there were soooo many to choose from! For locals, they have a serious DND thing going on and Pokémon too. I was impressed

Fantastic little games cafe with a surprisingly sizeable basement and so many board games to choose from. Has great coffee and does wonderful food from meals and soups to great cakes and all at a great price

I was visiting Edinburgh and made the walk to the shop in hopes of trying out some board games. Within the shop, there was two people and I asked to go check out the games room... The basement room stank of dampness, the lack of music left the downstair area feeling eerie without people, and the lack of organisation of the board games made it hard to find what they have. The staff member I talked to did not seem super interested in the hobby, which probably isn't the best for a small store. Despite this, they had a quite reasonable selection of board games to rent and a good selection of Flames of war models to buy.

Looking to play some tabletop games whilst visiting the city? Check out Games Hub! On a recent visit to Auld Reekie my brother and I decided to check out the local tabletop gaming scene, and so came across Games Hub. The frontage is quite small given they’re on a corner plot, but they make quite efficient use of the awkward space inside. The first section of the shop is a small cafe/retail area, offering a selection of snacks and accessories for popular card and miniature games. The majority of the rest of the building is given over to gaming space, including the vast basement space which features hundreds of board games to play! Staff are friendly and helpful, making the visit enjoyable throughout. A great addition to the city, we look forward to visiting again when in Edinburgh next.

Great place to play games. It did get a little loud but I'd attribute that to the fact that it was full (which is great to see) They have food which I have heard is very good. As well as a discord server to make bookings. Will be coming back to fulfill all my board gaming needs!
