    Where can a man get a good cup of Turkish coffee in Tyler? At boards and bites Café, of course where else would you be able to do that. I had 20 minutes to kill while my mother had a doctors appointment, I was still dragging in one of the booths so I search for a coffee house and this was the closest place to CHRISTUS healthcare and I showed up and being a smart ass that I am ask for a cup of Turkish coffee,. Jacob, who is the barista on duty asked me what I meant and acknowledge that no he was not aware of Turkish coffee, but Matt, his highly knowledgeable manager, Was overhearing a conversation and I asked him for recommendations on a trip and he recommended the equator phlegm which I had and then a few minutes later, Emerged with a little cup of cardamom spices to do an experiment making Turkish coffee without the traditional equipment that the turks do it wth. A few minutes later the 1st cup of Turkish coffee rolled off the custom assembly line and the three of us I've got to sample it. Where else would you get such attentive service, probably not at the SBUX store I don't imagine... but I have never asked so you never know as I learn if you don't ask you were not find out which was my experiment this morning. I will not say that it was the same kind of Turkish coffee experience that I enjoyed during my summer during college in the Middle East almost 50 years ago, , It was a alpha test, a first try, so the coffee really wasn't the important thing I discover there it was the experience of talking to some really nice guys, Matt and Jacob who were so solicitous and gracious to humor me and to please my palate, all of our curiosities were heightened by this experience. So be careful what you ask for, because you might just get it even if you're not expecting it! The moral to the story, ask and you shall receive more than you even expect. I will tell everybody about this place and make a point if it means going out of my way to return again to see what they doWhen I ask for a sandwich that's not on their menu and see what they do with that! Bon appétit! A world traveler reacquainting myself with the treasures of Tyler and I just found one today.

    Great selection of food and drinks! I had a Philadelphier Sandwich. It was really tasty and made quickly, as I was in there during my lunch hour. The amount of board games they have is staggering! Friendly customer service; I will definitely be back!

    Signature Latte

    Excellent customer service and amazing drinks! The barista was very welcoming and friendly. Definitely coming back to try the food. I got a signature drink with rose and lavender 10/10!

    When I walked in I was greeted by a smile from behind a mask and ordered a cold brew and a southwestern sandwich.

    They have a great selection, though prices are higher than MSRP and can verge into scalping…read moreterritory for some products despite them being easily found online. Easily solved by...buying online. The card playing experience is amazing though and just night and day compared to the other card store I used to go to in town. I had become used to people being awkward, standoffish, unreceptive to social interaction, and dealing with overbearing store rules. It was turning me away from Magic The Gathering because I was starting to think that's what it was like. But here at Geek World? The people act normal. They're talking, joking, and having fun. The employees are chill and a joy to interact with. You can find a few groups playing every day even outside of events. Friday Night Magic is incentivized to be extra friendly because instead of a prize pack, the first person to take combat damage gets a promo pack. With nobody pulling out all the stops to win, games are balanced and fair. Honestly, this place reignited my desire to play by completely changing the environment in which I do so for the better.

    Geek World left me speechless. The place is awesome the staff are so nice and every one…read moreIn their was nice.

    I stopped into the store a couple of times when GD05 came out, and I brought my 84-year-old dad…read morewith me. Quest gave us such an incredible experience. He took the time to talk with my dad, listen to his stories, and genuinely made him feel welcome. It honestly turned what could have been just another trip to the store into a really special memory for both of us. You can tell Quest truly cares about the people who walk through the door, and that kind of customer service is rare. Someone please give this man a box of his favorite cards--he absolutely deserves it! He's a huge part of what makes this place such a great place to be.

    I've been a long time supporter of Game Nerdz and have told others about the site too…read more Unfortunately, I recently purchased a number of items including the newest expansion for Root which had a Kickstarter logo on the listing photo, and was in the Kickstarter area of the website. The only thing available from the original Root Kickstarter was the Expansion which included 2 additional items - a new deck and a hirelings pack. I was surprised when upon receiving my items, it did NOT include the new deck or hirelings pack. Thinking this was an oversight given Game Nerdz clear avertising that this was the Kickstarter version, I contacted them. They said I could return the item, but they stated they made no mistake, refused to even update their false listing, and "no one else complained". To be clear, the Kickstarter cost $50, as did the Game Nerdz listing, so nothing flagged me as being off in pricing. No other site is advertising the stand alone retail expansion as "Kickstarter", and I even sent customer service 4 other sites showing those sites listings DO NOT claim to have the KS version. Game Nerdz is advertising the wrong thing, but worse still is their refusal to fix their listing or admit anything wrong or misleading. They stated "well we got it from KS, so that's why it's there". But... they got the kickstarter version and SEPERATED the KS into 3 different SKUs - fine but that is RETAIL, not KS, so don't advertise it wrong. Given the clear false advertising, I can no longer trust Game Nerdz to ship me what is actually advertised on their website. I've spent thousands on this site, and will no longer support them given they refused to even update their listing, admit anything wrong, or make it right with me. They are taking it back as a return, so that's a positive. Oddly enough, they could've just made this right by sending me the 2 additional items which are worth $22 (they paid less than this). Instead, they're paying for me to ship it back to them as a return, and the expansion is opened so they can't even sell it new. I'm returning other items too, so they're losing sales on multiple items plus the LOSS on the now used expansion. They're going to lose money on this transaction, and lose me as a customer. A smart business would make it right instead, and come out way ahead even in the short term.
