How a visit works

  1. Book, or check what's on

    Book a table or a seat in a TTRPG session. Card nights? Just turn up and grab a booster at the counter.

  2. Come upstairs

    We're upstairs in Royal Oak Mall, above Whitcoulls, across the road from BurgerFuel. The lift is next to Whitcoulls, and on weekends it runs 10am to 5pm.

  3. Pay at the counter

    Pay when you arrive, along with any drinks and snacks.

Can't make it? Cancel in My Lair, or from your reminder email, up to 24 hours before.

  • 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.

  • Awesome shop. Super friendly owner, really good drinks, reasonable prices, and a great board game/ttrpg suggestion. Can't recommend enough!

  • 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.
