Fantasy Flight Games Review

What an amazing place! You can go in and play a huge wall of games for free! They have food that you can buy and a huge selection of games for sale. We went there with a group and had no trouble finding a game we all wanted to play, and there were plenty of places to sit. The play wall even has the kid versions of some games. This may be our new family game night location!

Great atmosphere, amazing library of games, friendly staff, and decent food. It's a bit spendy to eat here, but if you just want a snack while gaming, get the fries.

2nd time here & this is a place to enjoy family & friends with what I believe to be over a 1,000 games to play & purchase. We are from SD, Ca, moved here a year ago. Didn't play board games there but meet church friends that became family & now my wife & I have fun playing games. Family came in for the holidays, from Seattle, SD, & North Carolina plus our church family & had a blast laughing & notice that there are a lot of people have a good time. So we recommend this place for getting to know each other, meet new people & the food here is fast food but pretty tasty. Plus the staff seemed to like their job which made it nice for us. Restrooms are clean. Plus it keeps people engaged instead of isolated with video gaming, if you understand what I mean. Have a peaceful Christmas & a New new year.

Pros: Huge selections of games to both buy and try. Food and drink to purchase.
Cons: Parking can be a nightmare. Food feels slightly over priced. Service could have been better. They kept charging me for refills even though I spent over $100 on food and games. Went I pointed it out I was basically told "tough s**t" because they had already charged my card.

Fun location. Large play area and great food. Get the pretzels. Don't argue, just do it :-). I only wish they'd sell their own branded stuff for a bit of a discount. You can find it on discount at most of the other retailers around the TC area.

Neat place where you can get a beer and play free board games.

Games and game supplies, food, beer, and a huge area to play games. They also have a wall full of games that you can play for free to try before you buy.

Gotta love a gaming location where you can buy what you play, have a beer, and eat.

Love this place
Best board games 2019

An amazing array of games to play, good food and beer.

Bright, clean, huge. Wow, I am very jealous I don't have anything like this in my hometown. Good selection of food and drinks at the bar. Lots of tables to play different games at and the customers inside give the place a really nice vibe.

I will be coming back to Minneapolis from Winnipeg and count the FFGC as one of the reasons.

Good selection, good natural light. Feels welcoming. Serves a limited selection of food and drinks.

Do you like games? Do you like an environment that's warm and welcoming to play games? Do you like having the opportunity to eat some not-awful food while playing games? Well then the FFG Event Center is for you!

Big space, friendly staff, lots of games for sale (because it shares the parking lot of Asmode), and the food is edible. My only real complaint is that the food, while better than I'd expect, is also really expensive for what it is. But they have Furious on tap, so all is forgiven.

Great staff! Fantastic food and atmosphere and so much space!

The fryer was down and a cooler was down, so it limited the options from the kitchen.

Lots of space to play games w/ friends and family. They also have a ton of board games you can play and sample before buying. Their food is very tasty, but a little expensive.

Great selection of games available to try out, good beer, tea, coffee and food. Cool place for nerds. :)

Mandatory visit for anyone interested in board or card games. The store has the whole catalogue of games available, with several tables to play, daily exhibition games, a small restaurant, lots of supplies, etc.

Games as far as the eye can see. Can't wait to import my nerds from Mankato to check this place out.

One of the greatest places to get food, hang out, and play games.

Probably the largest gaming area in the Twin Cities. Not your typical jam as many tables in as you can as lots of other places can be. They also have food and drinks, including beer! Unfortunately the parking lot can be over flowing on weekdays.

Simple place to play board games with groups of any size. I enjoyed the tap beer selections (3 local craft options- dark, hoppy or light) and the food that I ordered.

The person explaining the games to me was too touchy and worried about my reactions.
Have to put sleeves on cards.
Employee told me they only sell table top games but they were also selling food and books, etc.
I was in the mens room and a female employee burst in there with a clip board looking around and inspecting.

Awesome space for multiple parties to play whatever. Great food. Friendly staff.

Bright and clean. Really good (if pricy) food options. Large game library and large selection for purchase. Huge open gaming space.

This is a hidden gem in Roseville. Tucked into a relatively plain industrial park building the game center is truly hidden. There is an extensive (free to play) game library with seemingly endless titles. Plenty of open space and accessories for brining your own games. The store has a large selection of games and not just FFG ones either. The onsite cafe serves up pretty good food with lots of variety, tap beer is a big plus. Only downside is that the food portions are small and the prices are high. But given the other services its worth the price.

Awesome new space, my favorite place to game with friends. Plenty of room and friendly staff. The menu has great food options.

Did, games, beer! Best game playing store I've ever been too. Not much selection of games, but if you need a place to play it is awesome.

Best board game place in Minneapolis!! Very friendly staff and a lot of games to choose from. Space is huge

Some friends of mine have game night every Tuesday. We used to go to Fantasy Flight to play because they have free games, food and drink, and plenty of space. However, we found ourselves bringing our own games, and the prices for their food and drinks is pretty high. It lead us to start playing games at some local breweries instead. If they knocked a buck off their drinks, or their sides weren't a la carte, we probably would still be playing there.

Or, maybe think about a punch card or loyalty program or something for regulars? We do still go to purchase games of course, and also to play Firefly because it takes a lot of room.

If you like playing games and eating and drinking. This is the place to go.

Love this place! Great food and drinks. I play D&D on Thursday nights

Lots of demo games to play for free in the library, good food and drink. You always can find something new being played, and staff and patrons are all very friendly.

The best place to hang out and game with your friends! They have:
> an expansive game library where you can choose from a hundred-plus games and play for free
> a gourmet kitchen that serves amazing food
> a wine and beer selection as well as an espresso bar
> a large retail space with all the latest games
> seating and play tables for 100+ of your closest friends

Amazing selection of the top tier of board games. Great space for playing theirs and other company's products!

Good food and a great space to hang out withvsome friends and play some games.

Great place to enjoy playing new games with your friends for free! Full kitchen for food as well.

Come for the big tables and good food, stay for the weird, obscenity filled rants from the balding libertarian guy playing 1st ed D&D in the corner.

Love this place. My networking group meets here every Thursday. It s always clean. And the staff is extremely nice!

Great place to meet friends for something to do. They have a ton of sample games to play and also are welcomeing to bringing your own. This can be a busy place in the weekends, but we always find a place for our group. It's nice that they have some decent food and drink available although you can't bring your own. They keep the place very clean and welcoming to everyone. Not your typical dude card shop with weird smells and no girls. I never feel weird when I go and is a nice atmosphere for families.

I love this place. Staff are always awesome, helpful, friendly.

It is a nice, big place. They require you to buy their food, but the quality of the food seems better than average. Great customer service. My biggest issue with the place is that it's REALLY loud in there. Maybe they could put up some fabric partitions to cut down on some of the noise?

Great space, friendly staff, yummy food at good prices.

Inviting store, friendly staff, great Warhammer selection.

Enjoyable lunch and snack food, lots of tables, perfect lighting, ALL the tabletop games.

Love this place. Friendly atmosphere, clean, and good food and beverage selection.

This place is amazing! Not sure why some of their prices are higher than you can find online, but there's a nice military discount to balance things out. Quite the selection of beer and food as well! Very knowledgeable and helpful staff!

Their kitchen closes abruptly mid day, you re trying to game there the whole day. Employee Craig won t let people get food from outside despite not being able to purchase it inside. What a jerk. Was about to buy expansion packs from them but I ll just purchase online then

One of the best ways to spend time friends and family, great food, free games to play and an excellent selection if you want to take something home to play.

Shelves of games to play for free and plenty of space and tables.

I was there for Worlds, and they kept the convention center clean and pleasant with hundreds of people around.

The food is expensive but really good. Free to sit and play board games with friends. They have a huge library of games that you can play for free.

The staff here are amazing, and this really is a self-contained gaming space. Complete with a restaurant in the center, a huge board game library you can borrow from, and a great gaming area. I was here about every day for a week, and loved it.

Decent game store. They have lots of games and an area to play in. A bit higher prices then some, but would shop again.

Fantastic place to set your inner geek free. Only real problem is the food. Other than a burger the rest of it is really not that great.

Didn't even realize that is was there. Drove by one day. Stopped in with my 11 yr old daughter. They have a wall of games that you can sit down and play. They are well labeled for difficulty level and number of players. We sat down and played for a few hours.

We also at dinner there. Food was good. Average fair, but unusual for a gaming place.

Since discovering it, we have been back a few times over the last few weeks.

Umm.... Free game room? Need I say more? No. Will I? Yes: also has friendly staff, great concessions, and once you find that game that clicks, they have it in stock at the front!

This place had a great vibe going on. Fun atmosphere, always lots of gamers and families. The game library is both well stocked and /organized/! Fun food choices. Only suggestion would be to cozy up the lighting a bit. The light is pretty harsh and white off of the white walls and ceilings.

They have so many games to buy, not only games made by Fantasy Flight. Plus they have a huge games library if you want to sit & play a game. They also serve food & beer/wine, though I've never taken advantage of it

Always love coming here, friendly knowledgeable staff, great game selection to play for free, food is good and reasonably priced and they even have beer!!

We bought a Rick n Morty set here! They have a bar, food, plenty of selections and lots of open seating.

Hundreds of games for sale. Good food and large playing area!

awesome boardgame store has an amayzing selesction of boardgames and a wall full of demos for people to try and have an awesome community good landscape and figure builder help and good food thats not expensive

Lots of cool games to play, lots for sale, and fun to be had by all! I really enjoy playing games here.

Good selection of games, great in store for that's not priced crazy, tons of room for gaming with lots of seating and tables, though it does fill up on a weekend evening. A while selection of games to try

Great food, great games, great employees, great events

Has become one of the best places to meet and play games.

This is heaven for gamers. Great staff. Serves food and drinks. And all the gaming you could ask for.

Awesome place play games, eat good food, and hang out with friends! The space is clean (especially the bathrooms), and the staff is informed and friendly. Good, solid management. The selection of games to sell as well as to try out in the library is great!

I not only come here the play games and RPGs with friends, I like to come here after seeing a movie at the nearby Rosedale AMC because most night they are open until MIDNIGHT!! :D

The space fills up fast on busy nights, so I recommend coming earlier rather than later, or even better, reserving a table 24 hours in advance.

So all in all, geek heaven! <3 <3

Great gaming space, nice people. Food and beer served. The chicken is great! The grilled cheese is a tragedy. Thick toast with ONE slice of cheese for $6. You should be ashamed of such blatant robbery.

Fun atmosphere. Excellent selection for sale, plenty of room for playing games, decent food and drinks. Staff is passionate about games and provide great service. Always a great experience.

Place was nice. The guy working was great to converse with. Sad to see a store like this be so dead because of covid (being in such a largely populated area). Much bigger play area compared to similar stores where I live in Oregon. Hopefully it's more lively next time we go there.

Good food, GIANT "library" wall or board games you can play for free, and friendly staff. My 9-year-old son is always begging me to go!

Interesting to browse and lots of table space, but prices are not competitive.

So excited to find this space. Plenty of space available to play games, and plenty of gsmes to borrow if you didn't bring your own.

Wish they'd have more a la carte game pieces for sale

Fantasy Flight's gaming area is one of the best in the cities. With a massive amount of space and a full service kitchen to prepare snacks and meals (and they even serve beer; a real rarity among gaming establishments), one can hardly ask for more.

Like board and card games? Then this is your place. Not only do they sell games, but they have a large area to play, tryout, eat, and be jolly. Good food.
