I’ve been coming to this café for a while specifically for the yogurt parfait served in a ceramic bowl with fresh fruit. It was one of the reasons I would drive here.

On my recent visit, I was told by an Asian gentlemen to “grab one from the fridge.” The refrigerated version is served in a plastic cup and looks very different from the freshly made one I used to order. When I politely asked if I could have it prepared for here as before, I was told there was no time to make it.

I understand places can be busy, but the response felt dismissive and abrupt. If the café has changed its format and no longer prepares it fresh, that’s completely fine, but it would be helpful to communicate that clearly.

I was disappointed because the quality and presentation were noticeably different from what I’ve previously experienced here.

This is cool concept of a cafe and went to check it out w my friend but w soy milk and tip two lattes were $20 served in a tiny very pretty but tiny cup; only to learn that most board games are not free but $5 per hours. There is a small shelf with limited free options. Daminos were missing pieces and tiny cup of pumpkin latte which didnt hit the spot to begin with became cold very quickly since it was served lukewarm.

Cute concept but Im good with $10 coffee.

Went here twice in two days while staying at the Hyatt Regency. A really cute little place that opens early and closes late. Their specialty drinks are excellent. I didnt stay for a game, but it seems like a great place for a board game night with friends.

Plucky’s Board Game Cafe is world class for “3rd wave coffee” and excellent food. Yesterday we had a delicious lunch (I had the mushroom soup, my wife had smoked salmon toast) the. Then we stayed a couple more hours playing games.
We returned this morning for breakfast at Plucky’s. I had an awesome omelette. My wife grabbed a couple of protein balls for our hike in the Marin Headlands. I chatted with the chef to get tips on the grilled sourdough bread that comes with most meals at Plucky’s. The woman at the cash register was super friendly and upbeat. Another great experience at my favorite cafe. 5 stars out of 5.

This place is a blast! There are tons of games to play. Some are free, and most are $5 per hour per person. You can pick any game from the shelves and start playing right away. The host will put a timer next to you to remind you when it’s time to switch games after an hour or to remember that another hour would be charged after the mentioned time.

We only went there for coffee, so I can’t say anything about the food. But I’d definitely come back and spend some time here.

Stopped in around 10:30a for lunch. It was pretty busy. A table opened up a few minutes after we got there. Ordered smoke salmon toast and 2 meaty breakfast burritos. One beef and other sausage. The pictures on yelp were little deceiving as I was disappointed by portion size. Food was ok, not spectacular in my opinion, and not worth the price.

This place is really cool. The Leek Pastry is really tasty. I wasn’t able to play a board game today as it was a flyby, but will be making a plan to come back. Looks like a fun place to hang out.

Been eating here Saturday Morning after weekly workouts for 6 months or so food is consistent, cs very good & atmosphere is inviting with open seating,board games, specialized handicap seating,opens @ 7am. The Breakfast Burrito is tasty, consistent & protein packed my go to ask for their hot sauce you can’t go wrong with their Quinoa Bowls, healthy & protein packed of course make u get that Hot Sauce. Local Business come support em cause there wouldn’t be a community with em. Try it and definitely voice your opinion on this Platform.

It’s well decorated, but pretty much everything about this place is profoundly anti consumer and makes no sense as a cafe or a games spot.

It’s overpriced – food and coffee is insanely expensive, and there are no refills on drip coffee despite a high price tag. Buying food or drinks doesn’t get you a seat long term or give you access to games.

You can’t work in the cafe, even when it’s completely empty and tables aren’t being used (despite the fact you’d probably buy more food/drinks if you stayed longer). You don’t even get the option to pay to extend your time there.

Seats to play games are expensive by the hour, even if you bring your own games (sorry Magic players). They display games that imply they know about board games, but the staff is clueless and can provide little to no guidance.

To top it all off, owners are rude and dismissive.

If you’ve got a ton of money to blow on mediocre food and bad table pricing, go for it. As a neighborhood joint where people could work or play, it’s awful. This is a place that seems soullessly built to exploit a market niche without any true interest in building a good cafe or game spot.
