We love visiting Cardboard Corner (and sister store Tabletop) whenever we’re in KC! Good food, a nice selection of games, and a beautiful store to spend time in.

Pros: (1) has lots of games for people to play (2) Free entry Cons: (1) Awful food (3+ times of different foods). The time I had their west bottoms waffle and the beans were served cold (actually cold), the meat was full of fat, the onion ring was worse than I could make at home on an air fryer, etc. Overall it was utterly terrible food (2) Often very crowded Tip: (1) Don’t come for the food - Icome for the games, maybe by some “food” to support them

This is a culmination of my favorite things; waffles, board games, and amazing atmosphere. Everyone is there to enjoy good food and fun drinks, play board games, and have a great time together. You can try out a board game while enjoying your food, and then walk next door to buy the game if you love it!

This is the best board game cafe I've been to across multiple cities. I go about one to two times a year when I'm in the area. Fun food (although I'm sad that they no longer carry my favorite fried pickles! please bring them back!) as always, and now they do seasonal drinks which is great. We got two plates of the loaded nachos, artichoke dip, and various drinks. Huge selection of board games and lots of table space. My party of 6 and I stayed for 6+ hours and bought board games on the way out. Thank you for always providing the best experience!! We love cardboard corner.

This was a great evening. We got the Blackberry, Brie, and Bacon Waffle and The Sea Devil Mocktail. The waffle was unique and quite good. The Mocktail was rather believable in the flavor of the alcohol free rum. We played Star Wars Outer Rim and had just enough time to learn and play Hey, That’s My Fish! The staff were friendly, polite, and helpful. We will definitely be coming back!

Hello Cardboard Corner Cafe, Very first I am impressed with your idea 💡 and the Entire theme of cafe is different with lot of cardboard games and other retrofit style of games. There are lot of people hanging out with food and coffee and games especially. I have seen many games which I have never seen before, they were so so classy and interesting to play with a gang. The place is so big and lot of seating like an escape room theme. Coming to the food 🍱 The food was so so bad, even the coffee tooo worse, Don’t go to eat any food 🥘 here even the coffee is so bad, the service quality is literally horrible you won’t like at all. They are like let it be , let it be kinda people. Disclaimer and warning ⚠️ If you are planning to go to coffee shop and study this is not at all the place for sure, don’t even imagine to open laptop and keep wireless headphones. Feedback to cafe, 🍵 Customers are your life, add value to them via food and service don’t be a staff to involve and play games kinda off. Everything regarding cafe should be improved. Cheers 🥂 Have a good one. 1️⃣

What a fun place! We had been to Pawn & Pint and enjoyed it but live on the KS side so I’m glad Overland Park has a place like this too. We went on a Wednesday night and it was pretty full, so it seems like it’s often lively. It’s totally free to go in and play any of their MANY games but there are games and items for purchase as well if you so choose. Their food menu is interestingly waffle focused but I unfortunately did not have during our visit. Decent beer selection and I appreciate that they have a few mocktails on their menu that they’ve put thought into. My wife and I had a blast playing the game Fitz for the first time. Can’t wait to come back.

I basically live here on my days off. A fun place to chill and unwind. Servers after a few visits really try to recognize you. After a bit of reasonable time they will call you by name when they serve you. Great Place! Probably some of the cleanest restrooms in a dining establishment. On the amount of price per person, I usually splurge when here. Only during special events or New Year's Eve is it very loud. Fun for the whole family or just a kid at heart.

I've been coming here since 2023 and it has easily became my favorite establishment in the Kansas City metro. While I am not even a huge game board fanatic nor player, this cafe provides a welcoming and fun space for everyone. I always bring my friends with many different interests here and we always still find a fun game that suits everyone as this cafe has an extremely broad selection of games to pick from, and it is completely free to play the games! While the games are a majority of the theme, the menu is what really wins me over. The rotating monthly menu is always great, the waffle selection is broad enough to always have a waffle that hits the spot and the drink selection is also fantastic and creative. I love that they have boba, hot tea sourced from Savoy Tea Co. (a great tea spot), matcha, coffee and a fun cocktail and beer selection. A huge advantage is their affordability as well! Cheap drinks and affordable, fulfilling waffles is a major win. Cardboard Corner Cafe also provides a safe space for people of all backgrounds and ages. The staff has always been consistently kind and helpful and the people who work here are passionate about their workplace. Not only is the staff kind but the crowd they bring in is also great. This place hosts many themed nights which is great if you are looking to socialize, learn a board game, or try out something new. Service is always fast even when they are slammed packed and I love the open, cozy seating arrangement and atmosphere. There is quite a bit of seating, even for larger groups. I will always be a huge fan of Cardboard Corner Cafe, I cannot recommend this place enough to literally anyone. There is something for everyone here and this is one of the few establishments I will highly miss when I move out of the Kansas City area.

We came for a demo by Allplay. We stayed because of the vibe and service. We got a few drinks (didn't try any food). There is plenty of space here and you won't be disappointed! You can choose from a wall of board games to play.

Their waffles are terrible, although their pizza waffle is passable. They have very few options other than waffles which is wild to me. Not even basic French fries! I tried a fried pickle waffle and it cut up my mouth and was too greasy and salty. Still, I come here because it's a great board game space. It can get really busy during certain times, especially on weekend afternoons when it's almost impossible to snag a table.

I absolutely love cardboard corner! The OP location is my favorite, though I've visited and enjoyed both. The food and drinks are great, I especially love their boba and the fact that they offer mocktails as well as gluten free and vegan options for food (I myself cannot have eggs due to an allergy, and I have family who are gluten free due to allergies). Their board game selection is epic as well. Cardboard Corner is truly my default place for hanging out with friends! I also like that the staff is friendly and they have a good system for letting you know when your order is ready both by calling your name and/or by sending a text alert to your phone. My one critique is that sometimes the mocktails have more ice than I'd prefer and therefore less of the actual drink, that said at my most recent visit this didn't happen so they may be improving on that issue already! Some neutral observations are that it can be very busy and loud, and it can be hard to find a table in the evenings regardless of the day of the week, so be sure to take that into consideration if you're planning to go there for the first time!

I met here for coffee and some info on D & D play, terminology etc. what a great space. The house coffee was perfect, and the price was great. Plenty of space to move around and while they offer noshes, I didn't partake. They have many...MANY!! games to choose from and from what I can tell, are in alphabetical order. Very clean and organized space with adjoining gaming room and then further along a place to purchase games, gaming pieces, dice etc.

Never been to a board game cafe before! Was a chill vibe, it was packed with people playing games, enjoying food and drinks. Pretty straightforward place - order at the bar, find a game and a table and they'll text you to come grab your food when it's ready. The waffles were fun and tastey. Cool twist in the classic waffle. We discovered some new games and enjoyed our time here. Would definitely go back, great spot for big groups as well!

The have lots a games to choose from. As for food, they have something for everyone. We eat vegan so it's very amazing they accommodate for the vegans. We personally don't consume alcohol but they have many fun drinks to choose from. If you go on the weekends, tables fill up quickly.

If you're looking for a new local board game bar then this is it! There is no cover fee and an entire wall of board games you can try out before you buy. Also a cool perk is they have a board game store attached where you can walk over to and buy board games, figurines, dice and all sorts of other goodies. Cardboard also offers food options that are pretty limited to waffles which leads to a bit of a stinky room at times. Totally worth it by the end of the night though. There are also tons of classes you can take throughout the year, I took a figurine painting class a few months back and had a blast! If you are looking to support your local game shops definitely stop by and check them out.

I truly adore this place! A haven for gamers, waffle-lovers, and anyone looking for a fun and different alternative to bar hopping with friends! The cocktails here are fire, the staff is always friendly and you can tell how well-loved it is in the community by how busy it always is! I've tried a few different savory waffles but the sweet ones are truly where it's at. The red velvet waffle special for February is perfection, with a great balance of flavors that aren't overly sweet or too rich. What is truly impressive is the massive selection of board games! They have something for everyone here - fast past word games, fun physical puzzle games, mysteries and RPGs and everything in between. You can't go wrong! They also feature local artwork and are attached to one of the most comprehensive game shops in OP, a place you can peruse for solid hours. Thanks for existing, Tabletop & Cardboard Corner Cafe!

I love this place. It is the place to be on a weeknight. I've gone several weeknights and been completely taken aback at how packed and lively it is. It is great to see so many people out and socializing in such a fun environment. Another huge plus for this place is that it is the only board game cafe I've ever been to that doesn't make you pay a game fee. I can't describe how much more that makes me want to go here - it just takes the pressure off the whole experience. Pick a bad game? No harm, just try a different one next time. Stuff is so expensive these days, it's awesome to just have an all inclusive board gaming experience. That's not to say I don't pay anything when I go here. I always order food and a drink because they have such a fabulous menu. The menu is centered around waffles of all types - both sweet and savory. One of my favorites is the Jalapeno Popper Waffle, made out of cornbread. They have a variety of beer and cocktails, coffee, sodas, candy.. it truly is a vast and diverse menu. I get excited to try new things. Additionally, this space is huge! There are ample tables of different sizes to accommodate your group and there is an adjoining room with mega tables for more serious gamer groups. And if you want to pick up a game to take home, the whole place is connected to a board game store! I also love that this place is open until 10 pm. Honestly that is refreshing in a post-Covid world when I feel like everytime I want to go somewhere, I find out they are closed. Cardboard Cafe also has a bunch of different events like game demos and open play, so if you're solo, you can play games with others, or try new games with new friends. Overall, this place just feels like a gamers heaven - unlimited gaming, plenty of drinks and snacks, lots of space, good vibes. I love it.

As a non-gamer, what excited me most about this place is that their kitchen is open fairly late most nights, so I thought it would be a good place to stop by for a late dessert, all of which sounded delish on their menu. (What this town REALLY needs is a great late-night dessert restaurant!) However, after at least a 20-minute wait for Chaffles & Tomato Bisque Soup to go, on what didn't seem like an incredibly busy afternoon, my enthusiasm dimmed. And it dimmed even more when I tasted my food. The Ch(eddarW)affles were really dry, devoid of any pleasant cheese flavor, and the soup/dipping sauce was very thin, nothing like any tomato bisque I've ever had before. But all the other food I saw people getting LOOKED really good, even mouth-watering! Despite the fact that the guy in charge (not the owner), manning the store that day, taking orders and barking out names, did absolutely nothing that made me feel at all welcome, I can see this being a terrific, comfortable, hospitable place for those who love board games, and even for families. But you don't have to play games to hang out, even though they DO have a about a billion free-to-use boxed games of every variety on two walls. And their extensive menu, based mostly on waffles of every sort, sweet to savory, and any concoction of toppings you could possibly imagine, had me all excited. I hope the offerings (unlike mine this time) taste as good as they sound, and as good as the ones I saw coming out of the kitchen looked. They also have some interesting and creative alcoholic beverage offerings, like a Flight of Mimosas (classic, passion fruit , cranberry orange, and piña colada) for $12. I will go back JUST for those, and to try a dessert waffle. I'm game, even if not a game player! However, IF they have CLUE on their Wall of Game, and IF I can find three other people old enough to fully appreciate that one, I might dive into the whole experience...after a Mimosa Flight...or two!

Such a fun place! Come with a friend or a group, and plan to hang out for at least a few hours. In my experience, once you come, you won't want to leave for a while. Cardboard Corner has table sizes for nearly all groups, but there's only one or two very large tables (6+) in the main area. There's an adjacent side of the cafe through a door where there are more large tables. If you want to make sure a table will be available or you want a room for an event, you can reserve one of the private rooms in the back. There are QR codes on each table that will link you to the menu and provide game recommendations for groups of varying sizes, so don't worry about coming and not knowing what to play! The staff are also super helpful with recommendations. As for the food, it's very fun (much of it is waffle-themed) and very accessible (many sweet, savory, and gluten-free options), but ultimately unimpressive. The buffalo chicken waffle had a dino nuggets quality to it, and there wasn't much crispness to the cornbread waffle that came with it. It was a similar story for the pulled pork waffle. I don't mind that so much though; it makes me feel like I'm back in college playing board games in the cafeteria. Come, have fun, and save the foodie review for another place.

Cool concept. Unfortunately, it took 35 minutes for our food to come out. The guy at the counter wasn't particularly nice when my girlfriend's latte came out. The food itself was kinda bland. Their waffles were SUPER dry. I was also a bit disappointed our table hadn't been wiped off or cleared of dishes. It might also be helpful to wipe down the games at the end of the business day. The Giant Uno cards we used were really grimey.

So much fun! They have a HUGE selection of games to play--for free--and great waffles! I love the chicken and waffles, and the blueberry strudel waffles. Consistently very tasty. It's so easy to order if you have social anxiety--just scan the QR code on the table and order online, they will text you to pick it up when it's ready. Very fun ambiance. If you don't have anyone to play with, you can set up with a flag saying "looking for players" and make some friends! Love that you can just pop next door to buy the game if you really love it. Great experience, I come all the time!

Ambience and games is a 5, food is a 2 (barely) Ambience: We had a great time hanging out with friends here. The assortment of games is amazing. We enjoyed trying out a new to us game and wound up really liking it. Food: We ordered the chicken and waffles and the Monte Cristo waffle sandwich. The chicken had to just be Sisco brand. The breading was soggy (perhaps just reheated in a microwave) and lacked flavor. The waffle was cold, dry and didn't have any flavor without syrup. The Monte Cristo was okay with the ham, cheese, and jam but again the waffle was dry and had no flavor. Ego frozen waffles would have had more flavor. It truly felt like they were freezer waffles warmed in a toaster. The pictures in the menu do not look like the food you'll receive. (Which I know is a hit or miss but definitely keep that in mind.)

My colleagues asked me what I wanted for a birthday lunch. I really wanted something new, so I got on Yelp and found Cardboard Corner Cafe. I was immediately interested when I read their menu, convinced to try then when I saw the gluten free options, and hooked when I ate (inhaled may be a more apt description) my Italian sausage on gluten free waffle, and was giggling like a child when I ate my birthday cake waffle. I've been telling everyone about the Cardboard Corner Cafe and can't wait to take my daughter and husband!

I liked the unique menu, friendly service, and the extensive (800+) selection of free table top game play options at this new café. My wacho (nacho toppings on cornbread waffles) was served in ten minutes, reasonably priced at $8.99, and tasted great, with a good portion of nicely seasoned meat and tasty waffles, although salsa would have been a nice addition. The menu includes sweet waffles, savory waffles, custom waffles, shareables, coffees, teas, cocoas, cocktails, beers and wines.

Man I love this place. The vibe is so fun there are so many games to choose from. If you like waffles this is the place to go for food. I personally do not but my girl loves them so it's a treat to go here for sure. The service is great they do a good job of getting the food and drinks out there. I love this place and will continue to go here as long as they are open.

Amazing if you love games. Great unique food creations and a very pleasant atmosphere. Be prepared to pay up a bit more than McDonalds, but it's well worth the price tag. Also, all the games are completely free to use while your there.

coffee was fine, the cashier was lovely. the guy in making drinksput my order slip down right in front of me then went through the orders and made drinks for at least 10 orders that came in after me. He didn't make my drink until I asked him when he was going to do it. i had been waiting 15 minutes.

This place is really cool. Tons of board games, old school and new so something for everyone. I came as a group of 4 on a Saturday night around 9pm and it was pretty quiet with maybe 3-4 other groups there. We ordered dessert waffles, the peaches/cream and blueberry compote. Really liked that it wasn't overly sweet and it came with four slices each so we shared and everyone sampled both. Peaches/cream was def my favorite. Would come back again. It makes for a cute first date spot to help break the ice!

What a neat concept! I found this by accident from a GF Facebook page I am on for the local area. They offer a plethora of gluten free waffles, savory and sweet. They are clearly marked on the menu and the person taking our order was extremely helpful in explaining the waffles and the set up of the place. We ordered the chicken and waffle and the PB and J, we would not recommend the chicken at all. It was the microwave chicken strips that you can tell are not really chicken. The PB and J on the other hand! Wow! Perfect amount of sweet, crunch, texture and flavor. Amazing. They have a really good selection of drinks including ciders and mixed drinks. When you walk in there is a bar/cash register/bar where you order food and drinks. They call your name once it's ready. Find a table and grab a game! They have at least 150+ games, many I have never ever heard of. You could spend a whole day here. The place is clean, friendly and a fun new place to try out if you're in the area. I wouldn't recommend more than 6-8 people in your party.

This place is so neat! It's fun being able to choose from hundreds of available board and tabletop games to play while dining in. You can also bring in your own board games to play while eating as well. Their cafe specialty is waffles both sweet and savory. We had the savory pulled pork waffles and the s'mores waffles. They were delicious. They also have many beverages like handcrafted teas, cocktails, lemonade, and more. I liked that there were both tables and long booths with pillows that had plenty of room for games. There are also private event rooms available since it's adjacent to TableTop. Overall, it was a great time and would recommend this establishment to anyone wanting a relaxing afternoon with friends and family.

Cool place. Lots of boardgames to pick from. Great for families or a place for a casual and fun date. I love waffles so this place was great. My friend and I got sweet waffles but the savory ones the people next to us ordered also looked delicious too. We went when it was a bit crowded so it took a while to get our food but besides that was a good experience.

This place has really gross food. Definitely all made in the microwave or toaster over. We came here specifically since they had a gluten free menu. I asked for the gluten free chicken and waffles and no bleu cheese and when I got my order it was covered in bleu cheese and she looked at me like it was my fault but it showed clearly on the ticket that I had asked for it. Also the gf is supposed to come with grilled chicken and since the food had to be remade I got it to go. They gave me the fried chicken on top so I can't even eat this. I didn't even say anything the second time she messed up. I just went to eat elsewhere. Cool atmosphere with potential (since they have a whole wall of games) but don't recommend eating here. Only a game kind of place.

Cardboard corner is a fantastic place to go for playing games with friends! They don't charge anything to play the games, so if you want to either try games out or have an inexpensive date, this is your place. However We tried the fried pickles there. Beware of these, as they are not what you would expect. We were expecting fried pickles, but received cheese pickle waffles. Imagine chedder cheese cooked with pickles in a waffle press. They were not what we expected, and really did not taste that good. Though the waffles did not fit the expectation. The experience still was pretty good. Which is why I give the 4 stars. Good place, stay clear of the cheesy fried pickle waffles.

What a fantastic experience! As a family, we rented the sci-fi room and settled in for a game night. Chase was extremely helpful in getting us set up with instructions on using the Bluetooth sound bar for music and offering up a menu. He even offered to help us understand a new game we had purchased, Betrayal at House on the Hill. We made frequent trips to the bar to order drinks and food. The menu was creative and tasty! With all the potential combinations of waffle treats, we certainly didn't walk away wanting. The furnishings and decor were unique and creative as well. The entire place had a welcoming and relaxing vibe for a fun game night out. We enjoyed ourselves so much, we ended up buying an additional 2 hours of time in the room to finish our game and then rush through a "quick" game of Pandemic. We will definitely be back and can't recommend this place highly enough!

My new "happy place" In JoCo. Great staff , food that is as fun as it is tasty, and even the caffeinated beverages are well-made. I've been half a dozen times, and the weakest menu item was only 4 out of five stars. If only the didn't charge to use their games... oh wait. THEY DON'T. Favorite discovery of 2022.

This is a great space. I took my son for his birthday and we rented one of the two private rooms for several hours. We didn't need to, as they had plenty of space all over the bar area, but it was fun to have our own area where we could spread out our things and be as loud as we wanted. The game selection is first rate. We played the Fireball Island remake and Catapult Kingdoms (which is not actually out in retail yet), both of which were in great condition. Their food is entirely waffle-based. My son had waffles with whipped cream, I had cornbread waffles with pulled pork. It was pretty good. All in all, a great place we look forward to revisiting.

My hubby wanted to go to the game store and I wasn't overly happy about it, but he said "there is a coffee shop"! That place is the best. They made an amazing chai. The tables were filled with people playing board games. There is a huge wall of board games for anyone to use. It was so warm and inviting. There was a cozy chair area. I wish we had a place like this in Minnesota. We went twice and I could of gone back again. He went to the game store which is joined to the coffee shop. It was just great to see so many people having fun with board games.

Hmm- I was a tad disappointed after tying this place- especially after reading all the reviews. So have not given up on it yet! I decided it's not a take-out place. Need to eat there to fully appreciate and bet the experience will be completely different. Cute place, great idea. Socially distanced tables, employees were all wearing masks. All positives. We got the s'mores (from the sweet) and chicken/waffle (from the savory). I can understand the reasoning but was disappointed all the ingredients were separate and we had to put it together; my son thought the waffles were very crumbly. Also the chicken quantity was minuscule, I think needs to be more generous and we did not like the breaded small pieces. The best chicken waffles we have had, had fried chicken breast- that's what we were expecting. So overall not what I was expecting, but still think eating there would be better and different- even with the things I mentioned I did not like about the food. I think I am going to try at least one more time.

I love this place especially when there's games and food. I come here sometimes with my friends and we have so much fun. The food is hit or miss depending what you order but I say the tea is really good.

Cute spot with lots and lots of board games. If you're looking for a hang out spot to spend time with your friends, this is it. Large groups were hanging out in the back and smaller groups (mom and two small kids) were in front playing with huge UNO cards. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. We came after eating dinner and were looking for something sweet that wasn't ice cream. We ended up ordering two waffles- Smores and Black Forest. Both were equally delicious! The smores waffle was a little on the sweet side - due to the marshmallows and Nutella - so if that's your thing, you won't be disappointed. The black forest waffle was a perfect combo of tart cherry pie filling and chocolate waffle with whipped cream and a sweet cream drizzle. Perfect for someone who just wants a little sweetness and not to crazy combinations. My only compliant would be the wait time for the waffles. I believe we waited about 40 minutes from ordering to getting both waffles. They weren't that busy and it was about 8pm in the evening. So, I'm not sure what was taking them so long, but I'm sure the time wouldn't have been in an issue if we were busy playing games instead of just enjoying an evening out and small talking. Overall, I would recommend this place for overall environment and food.

Did waffles to go. They seemed dry, but obviously I'm not sure if that is because we took them to go. The blackberry hot chocolate was absolutely amazing.

This is a great cafe to go with family and friends for a game night! We had lots of fun and they have so many games to play. I was just not a fan of the food. It was waffled themed so every meal you had it would have a waffle. It was a little sketchy because when I ordered their chicken and waffles the chicken seemed very old and it was very chewy and pink. The only thing you should eat her would be there desserts.

This place is amazing. On several days me and my friends have driven up here and spent hours playing Magic the Gathering or some other games they have. This place's food is outstanding, it would be my favorite café if it didn't even have the board games, but with board games being one of my favorite things it just takes it to the next level. Everything is a waffle, which is just insanely fun and creative, not to mention delicious. My singular issue with this place is that it is about 30 min away from me. I would give it 6 stars if I could!
