The waitstaff deals with enough gamers that we were taken care of without our big moments interrupted. So we were taken care of on extra fronts, and I couldn't be happier. And of course, as a perpetual sufferer of annoying allergies I am always worried about new places. But our server was so great, and made sure I was able to find something to eat either my group. Downtown is annoying for me, but I'll make the pilgrimage again.

This store is AWESOME. Every square inch is packed with vintage treasures -- the kind of stuff you…read moredon't just stumble across, you quest for. I was visiting from out of town and headed to Powell's for some used books when a fuzzy memory hit me: Wasn't there a killer vintage shop I used to buy PEZ from back when I lived in Oregon? No way it was still around, right? One quick search later... it's still alive and kicking -- and I was literally 500 feet from the front door. Fate. Destiny. The Collectible Gods smiling upon me. Inside? Same owner I remembered from decades ago. That alone blew my mind. The inventory is unreal. Every one of my fandoms -- PEZ, Hanna-Barbera, Godzilla, King Kong, classic monsters -- all crammed into this cozy, nostalgia‑soaked cave of wonders. I could pretend I tried to play it cool, but who am I kidding? This place fed my soul. Did I buy more than I should have? Absolutely. Do I regret it? Not even a little. Prices are firm, but honestly, they're fair -- and half this stuff you never see in the wild anymore, even on eBay. If you love vintage collectibles, this shop isn't just a stop -- it's a pilgrimage. P.S. Please don't tell my wife what I spent.
