I took my niece here and I was not sure what to expect. I was blown away by how clean and nice the place looked. The staff were very helpfull and very polite. We played games for almost 5 hours and they let us stay longer than the 4 hour "reservation time" as it was not busy.
My niece told me that what she liked the most was that the tables have another shelf under them to put her cards, she is 9 and finds it hard to hold 5+ cards. I like this part of the tables also as you could put unwanted boxes or rule book out of sight but close to hand.
I drove 2 hours to come check it out and I would do that again for sure!
5/5 stars
Well decorated, nicely designed, friendly boardgame café with lots of choice. Love that the tables had space underneath them to place the boardgame boxes.
A big thank you to the female staff member working on Nov 2nd who was incredibly friendly and very kindly explained to us how Sushi Go! was played.
Also there was a great choice of food to eat on the menu, I loved the pepper and chilli rice bowl. Was a lovely way to spend my birthday 🥳
Loved it, the café has a really fun vibe and the food is so good! I've been struggling with my appetite but the cauliflower bites with blue cheese ranch cured me, so delicious. Affordable too!
Great venue.
We had 34 of us. Great communication before hand. Well managed on the eve. Big selection of games for all ages, room to move around, a great night out. Smaller groups make for better gaming sessions if you want a serious session.
Enjoyable afternoon, great way to catch up with friends and play some good games - old and new. The atmosphere is nice and friendly and the staff are great too. It's clean, tidy and very well laid out. The toilet were immaculate as was the food service area which served great beer and snacks. Only downside was the uncomfortable seating, my butt fell to sleep - due to the inadequate cushioning. That aside it is an enjoyable experience which I'll do again... Just maybe take a rubber ring next time. Lol.
Superb food, excellent range of boardgames, and incredibly friendly staff that are more than willing to go the extra mile with help with orders or even suggesting and explaining the games they have on selection. If I had any complaints it would be that (through no fault of their own) some games might have one or two smaller pieces missing or a slightly very well used sticky card. But that comes with the territory.
Also the pizzas are genuinely fantastic.
Great place! Lovely owner and staff, always have greats tips for games and tactics. Lots of different games, from easy fun simple games to more strategic long games.
Wonder food and drink, mulled wine this time of the year is always a win. The coffees are lush too.
Twist the "Board game Cafe" is a place I have been meaning to visit for months. When I heard of the concept for the place before opening I was excited, something new and exciting for Plymouth and finally seeing it my expectations have been more then met.
Twist Cafe serves Coffee's and Tea's, have a variety of flavoured syrups and offer milk alternatives including Oat milk at No extra charge which is quite pleasantly unusual.
They also serve a good selection of alcoholic drinks including Ciders, Beers, Ales and spirits intact the drink selection was much more extensive then I expected by far.
I had a Caramel Latte which was very nice and a great partner to the podcast I was listening to. I was a little peckish so decided to have a slice of Carrot Cake which was nice and decently sized and tasty.
The main attraction however is the HUNDREDS of board games you can play and I mean hundreds! Shelves full of them and apparently even more had hiding upstairs that I did not see. The board game goes from classics like versions of Monopoly (from classic to Mario Kart edition and more) to Catan, Dark Souls, Wingspan basically all the board games you can think of and so many more you have never heard of.
This will be a perfect place to have a nice drink, play a game and just have a laugh the decor and atmosphere is nice and relaxed that is perfect to play some games.
Will have to return with company to play some games can't wait to return to Twist 😊.
Fabulous celebration night at Twist last night with a group of girlfriends.
The team at Twist were so accommodating and supportive with the planning and organising. We requested to pre-order and pay for the game sessions, the food and some of the drinks prior to the evening - quality cocktails and nibbles on arrival, very tasty pizzas and fries delivered to the table half an hour later and then an evening full of games with frequent replenishment of those incredible cocktails 🍹 🍸
The Twist Team had been asked if they could recommend a selection of games for a group of people who didn’t all know each other. A large selection had been put on the table ready for our arrival - every game we played was a huge success, lots of fun and laughter!
I can’t recommend Twist enough for an entertaining group night out. Staff are attentive, food and drink is top notch and there is a massive choice of games. Range of diets catered for and a really good selection of mocktails as well as cocktails.
By the end of the evening a few of us were ready for a cup of tea 😆 - Wild Rooibos and decaf tea with teapots that poured well into gorgeous cups and saucers.
10/10 and we will be back ❤️❤️
If you haven’t already, pay Twist a visit. You can pop in for just a coffee (or something stronger) and a bite to eat and there are always staff on hand to explain things if you did want to play a game.
We walked in but booking is also available. There's plenty of games and a good bar. There are cocktails and a food menu too. Great facilities. Highly recommended.
