Bards & Cards

Went to this place a few months ago as I just happened to be in the downtown area. This place shines on a street that’s mostly dead during the daytime. From the great front windows display to the first table you see when walking in this super is a gem. I’m a big D&D player and a board game enthusiast and this place has a good amount of both. Some tables in the back were there for card games and some Warhammer TT. Lots of painted miniatures on display in cases in the back of the store. Plenty of dice sets to pick from in the glass counter at check out as well. Games workshops top line gets a good treatment here as well. Next time I’m in downtown I’ll def be back. Maybe host some D&D games there or you his host an episode of the Nerd Expansion Pod??! Show less

This is a rare place, a real third place - a community hub. I was traveling in San Diego and looking for a place to hang out around people. Inside I saw a Magic game going on with friends, people walking in and out who knew each other, regulars having interesting conversations with the owner about books and history. I bought something to support them because hell yeah we need this kind of thing in society where there aren't enough places to meet people and socialize, or just hang out in a friendly environment. Thank you! Show less

Name? 10/10 Super cute store with lots of games that I hadn't seen before but looked insanely fun. If I hadn't been flying I would have definitely grabbed the "Happy Little Dinosaurs" because literally look at it, it's perfect. Staff was nice and had good vibes.

A nice store with a great selection of games and excellent staff. You can even get some snacks here! They allow people to play games in store (basically Magic), but it's a bummer they don't host Dungeons and Dragons games. At least that's what I heard from a worker here...

Especially for someone like me who has never played DnD before and was looking to giving it a try since I heard online how fun to play it was so I wanted to check it out in a setting like this.
