Excellent all around. Firehammer sandwich is aptly named because it was fire! Coffee was also on point. Great service, super friendly staff. One of the best cafes in town!

Very nice Coffee Shop and Game store. Very good menu to also eat like sandwiches including breakfast items. Very friendly staff. Would go there again. Nice addition to downtown Sturgeon Bay.

Wonderful board game cafe. The selection of both games to play and games to purchase is quite large. The food was great. There are so many choices for both breakfast, lunch, and coffee. I really like that the chai latte was not sweetened by default, so that you could choose your sweetener if desired. I had it unsweetened and it was very good. The folks who work here are excellent, cheerful, attentive and truly seem to care that customers are enjoying their experience. I strongly recommend stopping in when in Sturgeon Bay.

A delightful combination of cafe and game seller, with delicious food, fabulous coffee (much better tasting, generous and priced than most cafes) and packed full of games for all ages. The more than 80 open games to try is a real treasure! Combined, this made our hour's drive well worth it. We'll definitely be back!

I had the ham and cheddar melt which was excellent. The cindersap coffee (new) was delicious as well. Give both a try— you won’t be sorry!

Fantastic lunch and relaxing atmosphere. The grilled cheese sandwich was delicious with the melted cheese stretch being perfect. The owners are top notch-couldn’t be better!

This is a fantastic little board game café that has captured our hearts! Any time we’re in town, we stop for a delicious breakfast (their croissant bread is fantastic) and pick a new game to try. I love being able to try a game before purchasing- and we’ve definitely brought home a few new favorites because of this place! One game we played was out of stock, but the kind and helpful staff ordered the game for us and it was ready for pickup within two business days. Awesome! Highly recommend stopping by here. Great people and great atmosphere. Thank you!

What a great experience here. Brady, the barista was very efficient, kind and made an awesome cappuccino! The cafe is very clean, loaded with games for all ages and the soup was delicious. They also have events all throughout the week for all interests. This unique cafe is for anyone who simply wants to enjoy their time out!

We finally stopped in on Fire & Ice weekend and were back the following weekend. Great coffee and breakfast sandwiches! Love all the sugar free syrup choices for the coffee. Everyone is so friendly and owner makes it a point to stop at every table to see how things are. We look forward to being frequent customers!
