Fun experience playing board games with friends here. Just ask the staff for any game recommendations.

Objectively speaking, Thirsty Meeples is a poor board game cafe experience. Their selection of games is great but their staff are consistently unwelcoming and make the prospect of visiting wholly unappealing.

Loads of choice of games and helpful staff that explain the rules if needed. The coffee wasn't great though. Good to have a water station and nice high rooms with cool posters.

The shop often opens much later than the advertised opening. The manager is cold and never try's to help customers. Irrespective of errors with the booking system the manager shows no signs of empathy towards the customer. Very unprofessional and immature attitude.Staff understanding of the hottest new boardgames is incredibly limited.Regrettably I would not recommend any board game hobbiest attending this cafe.

I found the staff very unhelpful. I asked for help a couple of times on the rules for different games but none of the staff were interested in engaging with me or seemed to want to take time for a customer.

I was sooooo disappointed today and left with a very sad daughter! The acoustics are horrific and it was horribly, overwhelming loud. We couldn't hear each other, so learning a new game was impossible. One member of staff was kind and spent time trying to help us find a game we would enjoy but we really could have done with the extra help getting started. In the end we thought we would start with zombie kittens, as we know it. The deck was filthy! Unfortunately my husband knocked over his drink, and rather than letting us clean up and wipe off the cards they took the whole game away. By then things were getting pretty tense. We ended up abandoning ship, as it really was too loud, the chairs were super uncomfortable, and my husband was out of drink. Due to the cover charge we left almost £40 poorer after 45 minutes and with a huge headache to boot. I really wouldn't recommend this as a family activity on a Saturday. Maybe if you can find a quiet moment it wouldn't be the same experience.

I was eager to try this place for the experience and atmosphere, but it was disappointing.£5.30 for a dreadful, half-filled, heavily buttered sandwich. As I opened it to show the waiter, he just walked off while I was talking. Some food took over thirty minutes to arrive. The table next to us didn?t even get all of their food.Most of the staff behave as if the customers are an inconvenience and an interruption to their day. One was in a particularly officious mood. There was one member of staff who was professional and friendly.Very noisy environment to try and play a game, we couldn?t hear each other speaking.Stay at home and spend your money on a new game instead. Order takeaway and invite your friends over.
