The store is a great space to play DnD, Magic, Pokemon or video games. The staff is helpful and friendly. They have a great collection of Pokemon cards got some greatly priced rare cards in great condition. Definitely recommend going here for your card buying.

Great shop despite COVID difficulties. Only the front was open, but there was still a great selection of cards and games. The girl behind the counter was amazing and knowledgeable. We had some great conversations with her. Ended up leaving with great priced Pokemon and Magic cards. My boyfriend and I will definitely be going here again.

Great little store, with a surprising variety of items densely packed and well organized. I called ahead to see if they had a few board games in stock, which they offered to order for me. They were super friendly and helpful, and Ill definitely be back!

This game store is awesome. They have some very unique offerings - I personally love the custom handmade dice. It is a very welcoming space. There is lots of space for playing games and it seems like every time I’ve been here there is an RPG game underway. Lots of board games, MTG cards, a virtual reality room and video games too. I wish I had gone here sooner but I wasn’t sure where to park. You can park in the parking area behind Jiffy Lube.

Everyone is super friendly and helpful! The Adventurers League is really fun and accessible for people new to D&D. I appreciate that its not all dudes at this store, because I dont feel comfortable being the only woman in a game shop, and that it is not stinky like other places.

Review №24

I highly-recommend Excelsior. The first day I visited, I was welcomed by the owners very warmly, and they talked about MtG, Pokemon and comics with my boyfriend and I for quite a long time. Very enjoyable conversation! This small business sells their goods at very reasonable prices, and I am extremely happy to support them whenever I can. I come back for casual game nights just about every week, especially when it draws such a friendly crowd. If you are nerdy and need your fix for fun and social gatherings, head to Excelsior! :)

Excellent staff. Very friendly and knowledgeable with everything in the store. Very wide selection of games. MTG and Pokemon is big there, plenty of tables to play on. My kids love going to hang out. When we first showed up we were greeted by an owner immediately at the door, and then 3 others within minutes, given a grand tour and shown how it all works. Not your typical comic/game store.

A warm and welcoming staff and clientel base provide a wonderful experience for both the experienced and novice to the world of Comics and Games. This shop is a place where people go to have fun and unwind from the stresses of the world, and I cannot give high enough praise to the personal touch the owners put into any and all transactions. If youre looking for a place to Role play, game, or even play some Magic the gathering, then please pay this amazing store a visit.

Great space for fun gaming and learning - the knowledge is vast and the team there encourages even the youngest to learn the right strategies and stick with it. Pokemon games are now serious business around here and we go on Wednesdays with a group of 7 year olds. Older kids and serious collectors/gamers are also in abundance and willing to help out and play. Ive seen board gaming, video gaming and MTG as well - also, Tiana and Bobby help oversee all trades to be sure they are fair and the pricing at the store is best in town. This is a non-profit labor of love and the kids win. My son wants everyone to know that every Pokemon Pack he has gotten there has had an awesome pull!
