Board Game Cafe FAQ

DO YOU CHARGE COVER?
We charge a board game library fee only for patrons that play board games. If you want to come to the lounge to enjoy a drink or bite, you will not be charged “cover”. This board game library fee ($5 + tax) will allow us to keep all of our games replenished and in working order. It also covers your seat for 5 hours as you are in the cafe playing games. If you leave and come back later in the day to play more board games, you will be required to pay the $5 board game library fee again. If a Board Game Curator is available, they will also be able to help teach you some games!

IF I'M COMING IN TO PLAY AN ESCAPE ROOM, DO I HAVE TO PAY THE BOARD GAME LIBRARY FEE?
If you have an escape room booking with us, you will be able to play board games for free without cover 1 hour before and after the booking, if space is available!

DO I HAVE TO PAY COVER IF I'M NOT PLAYING A BOARD GAME?
No! If you’re dropping by to grab a drink, study, read, etc., you do not have to pay the $5 board game library fee. We ask that you be considerate of how long you are occupying a table.

ARE CHILDREN WELCOME?
YES! We are a family-friendly facility. Children under the age of 3 are free with a paying adult.

CAN I RESERVE A TABLE?
Tables will be first come first serve for groups of 6 players or less. If you have a group larger than 6, please send us an email at info@sweetescapes.ca to reserve.

CAN I BRING MY OWN GAMES?
Yes, but you will still be required to pay the $5 board game library fee, and you will need to check your personal game in/out. The $5 board game library fee helps us stay open. We don’t want your games to get mixed in with ours, so we ask that you check your game in with a curator when you arrive, then check it out as you leave.
