If you are a tabletop or role playing gamer looking for local play, this is the place to be! Mo was amazing and his collection of games that you can play is impressive! We played some games and had great conversation. I wish we could have stayed longer!

You can't go wrong with Dice Goblin. It's a wonderful place to visit, play some games and just have a jolly good time in a safe space. There's so many awesome games to choose from and the staff are incredible.

Awesome shop. Super friendly owner, really good drinks, reasonable prices, and a great board game/ttrpg suggestion. Can't recommend enough!
Jackson -
10/10 their deluxe room for hire is amazing for D&D!!!!! They also have a great selection of board games to play with some mates. I recommend their discord if you're interested in playing tabletop RPGs.

Dice Goblin is a second home for my family for more than three years. … The consistency, kindness, and genuine mutual friendship at Dice Goblin has made a real difference in our lives.
