“ A fun unique place to hang out! The building architecture design makes you feel like you’re in a medieval house. There are many free games to choose from to play while you’re there. The food is reasonably priced and good! I am definitely going back and I highly recommend! ”
“ I’ve been to a lot of LGS and what they have done here is wild! This is the spot. The place looks amazing, they really went all out with the decorations. Plus, the staff are super chill and know their stuff. Oh, and the food? Way better than you'd expect! I would come here just to eat even if I didn’t play! It's just a really cool, welcoming place. A must visit!!!! ”
“ A really cozy and fun atmosphere. Spending time here with friends and family, playing board games and eating burgers has been a blast. The staff is really friendly and you'll find a whole bunch a great people here from the front of the house to the kitchen. Not to mention the dishwasher person is pretty cool and has cool fashion. Please greet the dishwasher, she gets lonely sometimes and would love a nice hello to brighten his day. Thank you l. ”
“ After years of going to Mox while visiting Bellevue, my friends finally decided to drive us up to Zulu's since it's open a little later (Mox closes at 10PM, Zulu's closes at 11PM on some weekdays). What an awesome set-up! From the start, it really feels like you're walking into a medieval tavern. You enter a board game shop set-up with a welcoming bar and the smell of fried food. Tables are open seating and you can order on a QR code for speedy delivery. They have an "open play" board game selection at the back with some classics rated by complexity. We brought our own board game, found a spot within 10 minutes while it was packed, and got drinks pretty quickly. They were even nice enough to give us a complimentary drink for tapping out one of their kegs. The beer selection has reasonable variety and is very reasonably priced at $8-9/drink. I didn't get any food here, but my friends seemed to enjoy the burger and fries they ordered. Lot of fun and definitely a great offering for the community. Would love to come back if I'm in the area. The only downside is having to look for street parking. ”
“ A great spot for a day of gaming or a quick game with friends. Fun spot for a date night. Also liked that you could buy games on site too! ”
