This place is so cute and unique! Going there is like talking a trip to Wonderland. The comic books, and the artwork, games, and wonderful cartoons they play - amazing! Also don't miss out on their delicious beverages and snacks.
I love the Watchtower Cafe. My friend and I serendipitously stumbled upon this place and were delighted by the delicious coffee, fresh bubble tea, all the comics and just the overall vibe. It's so positive and fun! We also discovered the Escape Room and took our sister and her friend yesterday. We were all surprised by how unique and challenging it was, and had a great time. Our host was enthusiastic, takes a lot of pride in the escape room, and is really keen for his guests to enjoy themselves. I highly recommend it!
Tons of seating in quiet, secluded little areas. A study nook with power available for you to charge your laptop, some old couches around an accurately named coffee table, booths, and tables in the main floor area. A few board games in house (though I would love to see more options there). It'd be a great place for meeting up with friends for the weekly D&D, Pathfinder, board game, whatever. Free WiFi. Oh and of course excellent coffee with great names from all corners of the geekdom universe. If you haven't been here and are of the geek spectrum, then go here!! I'll upload some pics of the place on my next visit!
I really enjoy their themed decor but the customer service is complete garbage as of late, they've stopped selling substantial food (only snacks now), and I wish the owners would institute a better restroom process. The gendered single stall bathrooms are completely unnecessary. Also, the baristas are clearly putout about instituting the current key process, as shown by my experience today. I understand the need for locked bathrooms, however, no customer should be treated like an idiot for returning the key to the wrong place. "Don't put that there! It's a food prep area! You're gonna have to pick it back up and bring it over here." He says to me with the tone of a recess monitor, as he's putting in an order on the register *while wearing his food prep gloves*. Do not lecture me about food safety while you violate food prep law. There is no possible way for me to determine what the counter areas are for. Totally unacceptable.
The barista is friendly, the atmosphere inviting and just the right amount of snarky (think a pan-handling Superman and signs clarifying "This establishment is registered as a school for highly gifted students, not a support group for mutants"), and the drinks are well crafted. I loved that we could grab a coffee and pass the night playing several of their many boardgames. I was also interested by the different arcade games and being kinds of seating offered throughout the establishment. Overall, a great spot!
