Extremely rude staff

A lovely geeky space to share fantasy stories and learn nerdy table top games. I wanted to get into Magic: The Gathering and one of the staff member, Chase, took the time to give me the rundown of the game’s format and mechanics very well. He even introduced me to other players to share their views and insights which was very helpful for me to understand the game. Super excited to visit here again.

Amazing card shop! I've literally spent thousands of dollars here and I plan on doing it more. The staff at The Side Deck are amazing, always greeting you and asking if they can help you with anything and always great to talk to. Robert "Bobby" is especially great. Bobby is always helpful and is great at selling me amazing quality cards. Bobby is very friendly and polite. He shows me amazing cards every time I come in and I usually leave with a few he showed me. He also makes the best coffee I've ever had. Their drink items are exceptional and way better than the other top companies out there. The Side Deck makes me feel like a kid again and I'm so greatful for them.

Cool place to hang out and play board games, TCG games, and even video games. Tournaments are hosted for various types of games listed, and there is a wide array of items to shop and purchase from, whether it be the games itself, accessories, and snack items and drinks. Speaking of drinks, this places serves as a cafe as well, and there are a variety of hot and cold drinks that are made in house. Worth checking out especially if you have an interest or hobby in any of the aforementioned activities.

My kids love this store. The people who work there are always so patient with them while they pick out Pokémon cards. They have a really good selection of Pokémon card singles. Some rare and desirable ones on display up front, and they have a larger inventory in the back. They price their cards based on TCGplayer.There’s always events and tournaments going on there for other card games and board games too. Lots of tables for people to play. It’s just a friendly, fun place to go.

Great place with great people. Had heard about them for a while, stopped in for the first time today and was blown away. Definitely my go to spot moving forward!and hopefully to get my daughter in for some casual league play. Thank you so much Side Deck!

This place is always fantastic. The staff are super friendly, and play a lot of the games themselves. Also they are really good at getting me to buy more things than I meant to

Great place to get all your gaming supplies. They have a wide variety of Role Playing Game books, minitures, and table top games as well as your favorite card based games. The staff is friendly and very helpful. They have several tabletops to play on as well as Game / Dungeon masters to help you get your game on. You can check on their website for a list of games and events including family friendly game times and games.

This was, by no exaggeration, the best card shop experience I’ve ever had. They were welcoming, nice, and had an incredible stock. I will ABSOLUTELY return and continue returning each time I’m in the area. 6/5 stars if I could!

Wonderful little hobby and card game shop. Think of Firefly but smaller and more familiar. Polite staff and informative.

Great service! I had questions about citadel paints, store staff showed and demonstrated the diffrence in types of paint and application. Very helpful.

This place really went downhill. The service is still good, the nice employee are the only thing making it a two star. The atmosphere is dry and boring. And their inventory has decreased a significant amount. As a TCG player there is no significant reason to come here

Atmosphere: 1

Food: 2

Service: 3

My son came in to sell his Pokémon cards and the staff was so wonderful. They were patient with him, gave him options, guided him and encouraged his decisions when it came to his cards! I checked out the games and learned about three different games. They are very knowledgeable and genuinely care about your experience! We were helped by -I hope I spell their names correctly!- Macey, Haley and Tess. :)
