Where do you go when you want to buy a copy of Settlers of Catan, Carcassone, Agricola, Castle Panic, or any of the hundreds of other board games surging in popularity these days? Here's a list! :)
518 Yonge St. (btwn Breadalbane & Grosvenor), Toronto, ON
Hobby Store · 25 tips and reviews
Moira Fogarty: Centrally located downtown TO, with good prices & great selection, this is my go-to shop for board games. Be warned: It gets crowded right after work at 5pm, and is crammed with dudes. Sausage party!
202 - 290 Carlaw Ave. (btw Dundas St. E & Queen St. E), Toronto, ON
Hobby Store · Leslieville · 1 tip
Moira Fogarty: Weird hours, hard to find at street level, but friendly staff, great website, super prices & an awesome selection of board games. Lots of guys go there to paint miniatures; fear not, they don't bite.
600 Bloor St. W (btwn Markham St. & Palmerston Ave.), Toronto, ON
Café · Koreatown · 105 tips and reviews
Moira Fogarty: Crowded and a little pricier than 401 Games or Meeplemart, but of course you can try before you buy for just $5, AND they serve booze! You can get good advice from staff if you're seeking suggestions.
Moira Fogarty: Not a wide selection of board games - mostly Settlers variations, etc. but prices are good and it's nice to support a local comic shop. The staff are nice, and it's a peaceful shopping experience. :)
