Love the cafe as usual; the games selection is pretty decent and staff are very friendly. Food and comfort level (seats) can be better though.

has a wide selection of games and staff were helpful too! but was not very convenient for a group of us 9 ppl as we were seated at a long rectangular table which made it abit difficult while playing games.

Food was good but service can be further improved on. The cafe should schedule more staffs during peak periods such as new year's eve.

It was nice, just that I hope I was asked if whether I would want to extend initially before asking us to go to our designated area would be better, because I didn't know I was not allowed to extend after my time is up.

Minds Cafe Staff were generally helpful, friendly and patient in teaching the games. However, they did seem slightly understaffed. Also, they no longer accept cash payments which makes things harder for students.

It was pretty fun for team bonding with colleagues. Drinks and snacks options are not very wide spread, would be good to have more options for free flow.

Good place to interact with friends and relive childhood with board games, away from smart phones! A place buzzing with noises and laughter. Food is pretty good but the main aim is really about the board games. ;))

Staff is friendly. Ambience is good. Would come again with my friends. Would prefer that more variety of games be included. Perhaps a printed list of games for us to take a look would be good

It was really fun playing those games at the cafe. Just one feedback,staff could be more friendly to all customers such as asking whether they are first time patronising to serve all customers better.

We are a group of 12 people visited Mind Cafe on Sunday. I would say it is a great place for small groups of 4 to 5. Since at Dhoby Ghaut, it was not possible to reserve a private room, it can be verrrry noisy in the hall, especially trying to engage 12 people across a long table. We manage to get into the smaller sofa room, and had a much better experience. I would say the staff is extremely helpful!! 5 stars service. If more privacy it would be much better!

I like the idea of the cafe where friends or family can gather together to play and have fun. However, I feel that the place is in need of serious refurbishment as it does not look very welcoming. In addition, there was no soundproofing which made the whole place really noisy. Having different rooms would greatly elevate the entire experience and minimize the noise level significantly. Additionally, the staff there were not too helpful and rude while explaining the games.

I came on a relatively busy day. They were a little slow in serving me at the counter but it was understandable as they had quite a bit of traffic. The staff are very knowledgable in their games. They are able to explain in great detail and yet still make it fun and enjoyable. Do ask for their recommendations as they know more about their games than most other people. If you're looking for a place where you can spend hours on end playing, yet don't want to spend a lot of money, here is the place to go.

My friend and I both really loved this cafe because of its unique concept and also because unlike many popular cafes, this one was not packed with people making it a nice space to relax and unwind. The food was pretty good as well and I'd definitely recommend this cafe for anyone looking to go somewhere quiet and fun.

Service there was EXCELLENT!! Food is AMAZING!!! Great atmosphere and best of all, the package that Mind Cafe have is really really affordable. This is the reasons why more people should check out this place as it has not just a wide range of board games available but the many different promotions at different days which are guaranteed to make you come back for more. However it can get abit loud when groups of people come, as they may shout and scream which is still fairly understandable as its a big group. Overall AMAZING EXPERIENCE, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 10/10.

Everything from food to drinks to games are good and delicious. The only setback is... why the cafe doesn't accept cash payment? And also why minimum 25 words for review? (This qns is to fill up 25 words)
