We were so excited to check out another Hex & Company location! This space was larger in both square footage and in game selection. Just like the other locations, they have a retail section as well. We love that we found a place to check out new tabletop games and chill.

Board game cafe, what a fantastic concept! Such a fun experience for only $10. I can't wait to come back again. Many many board games to choose from. You can stay as long or as little as you like. We ended up playing two board games in the nearly three hours we were there. Drinks are also offered, both alcoholic and nonalcoholic, on tap and in the fridge.

This place is such a vibe. Jeremy is awesome. The private gaming areas feel so intimate and are decorated nicely. Can't wait to come back - my friends and I are already planning for some D&D sessions here!

Hex & Company: A Game of Two Halves Hex & Company, a quirky blend of board game cafe and retail store, is a delightful haven for gamers and coffee enthusiasts alike. The eclectic decor and inviting atmosphere create a unique and enjoyable experience. The coffee, a caffeinated concoction that rivals the best of them, was a perfect pick-me-up. And the cheesecake pumpkin slice? A divine dessert that would make even the most discerning pastry chef swoon. The staff, for the most part, were friendly and helpful, guiding us through the labyrinth of board games and coffee options. However, our experience took a turn for the worse on a second visit later that day when a staff member, perhaps having a particularly rough day or perhaps just a bit too invested in board game etiquette, confronted one of our group members for browsing the games without prior permission and renting. It was a bit like a librarian scolding a child for touching a book. While it's understandable that the establishment has rules to ensure a fair and enjoyable experience for all patrons, the way the situation was handled could have been more tactful. A gentler approach, perhaps with a friendly reminder about the rental process, would have been more effective than the hostile approach we received from her. Despite this minor hiccup, Hex & Company remains a charming place to spend an afternoon. Just remember to play by the rules, check with the staff before touching anything, or risk the wrath of the board game gods.

What a really cool idea! We visited from Maryland with our daughter and son in law and look forward to many more visits. The selection of board and card games is incredible, I would never have guessed there was that may games in the entire world! Must be thousands on their shelves to choose from to play while enjoying a beer with friends or family. I recommend NOT drinking until you find the game you really like and learn the rules of that game! Only after getting started should you go grab a beer. A little alcohol goes a long way to making the rules of a new game harder to understand!!! Price to play was inexpensive. Their beer selection is not huge but they have something for everyone, it is decent beer and well priced. They have food but it is not something to rave about. None of it was bad. Think of it as something to snack on while playing games. Pretzel Bites and chicken tenders were what we ordered. The atmosphere is loud and fun as everyone around you is having a great time. They also have games for sale if you find a game you really enjoyed. This is certainly a place to go if you like beer and board/card games.

The game selection for sale is pretty decent. The game library is huge, and the tables are decent size. Some games may not be really feasible within the space though. The staff is a mix of very knowledgeable and "im here because I got bills", but all around pleasant. A fun visit, always.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hex & Company is a fantastic spot in New York for both coffee lovers and board game enthusiasts. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, with a unique vibe that's perfect for anyone who enjoys gaming. The coffee here is top-notch, making it worth every visit. What makes Hex & Company stand out is its dedication to board gamers. They regularly host activities and competitions, which adds a lively energy to the place. Just be aware that during these events, seating might be limited—but trust me, the experience is worth it! Whether you're there for the games, the coffee, or just to soak in the great ambiance, Hex & Company is a must-visit.

It’s quite refreshing to see board game themed cafe. Great board game collection, great vibe!
