Look, for the most part the games and the venue were great and I love the concept. Some of the staff were very kind and helpful in finding games to choose as well. The lack of 5 stars is tied to 3 main factors: 1 - shoving virtue signaling in every corner of the store with pride flags and trans woke reminders does more harm then good. I'm all for love for everyone but why are you singling out trans and gay? It's virtue signaling and it's not needed to run your business. 2 - the $13 cocktail I ordered may have been 2-3 shots worth of liquid, basically it was so tiny and not worth the cost even remotely. 3 - the food is heavily focused on fried food, bread, French fries, i realize it's quick to cook but some healthier options would be nice. In general, I'm a fan of businesses thriving and standing out by shining through their product or service and not by shoving ideologies in peoples faces and virtue signaling. Until that changes, my family and I do not plan to return. read more

Shuffles: Board Game Cafe - Main foyer - Bars Near Me - Tulsa, Oklahoma

We dropped by to spend a Saturday afternoon here on a weekend getaway. We were greeted and had everything explained. We were sat at a table for two- that was the only thing I didn't love, we played a game that took up a lot of space and between that and the food and drinks we spread to the table beside ours until the place was packed. I get why, they were busy and needed to manage tables. Our server was very attentive- and the service was fast. The drink menu is huge and has a lot of fun themed sections. I appreciated the large section of mock-tails and non alcoholic options. We tried several things and it was all great. Great atmosphere and set up- some of the servers stopped by and chatted about the game we were playing, and we chatted with the other couples playing around us. Super fun vibes, they have a large game library with lots of options, set up to be easy to browse. $7 a person to stay as long as you like is a steal as a way to spend an afternoon. read more

Such a fun spot for a chill night out as a date or with a group! They have a game master who will recommend games based on how many players you have, skill level, and type of game you're in the mood for; silly, mystery, strategy, etc. we had so much fun! & tried 3 new games we've never played before and had a blast with all 3. What an underrated Tulsa gem. With it being only $7 a person for unlimited time to play you could spend hours here! They also have a coffee bar, bar and food! The espresso martinis are nice and strong and actually are made with espresso! We came on a Friday night and it was packed. We had to make reservations so you may want to call ahead just in case. Can't wait to come back! read more

We were in town visiting and decided to give this place a shot--and wow, I'm glad we did. We've got a board-game café back home that we love, but this spot blows it out of the water. Super friendly staff, awesome layout, and the food is ridiculously good. Definitely worth a stop! read more

Had a wonderful time at the Shuffles Cafe bar top! My husband and I played connect 4 from their free games while we had drinks and food! It was honestly a really great time!! They were super packed and the bartender remained attentive to us and even recommended some free games for us to play!! 10/10 we will be back again and we will call ahead next time to get a good seat!! read more

We are visiting Tulsa while on vacation and stumbled upon Shuffles. What a super cool place! We just had a drink at the bar but for $7 you can play all the games you want! They had so many unique and fun games. Great vibe. Super cute and perfect place for a date night! read more

Boardgames, drinks and fantastic food! Perfection found under one roof! We went with friends and it turned out to be the perfect rainy day pick. Price to play unlimited games all day and night if you wanted too is $7.00 a person. They have a full menu, snacks, drinks in a cooler and candy on the wall. If you wanted to keep it simple and snack... instead of order off the menu. We each took a turn picking out the game we would all play, We chose the section where they had party games, but they also have strategy games and also two player games. They have them all in sections which was very handy. Our waitress was very nice, refills kept coming all day, the fried pickles with their in house ranch was INCREDIBLE. I didn't get a pic because I was too busy enjoying those. I ordered the Kingsburger with the ranch to dip my fries in. VERY GOOD. You could literally stay there all day and game. Fun atmosphere. Great seeing friends and family spending good quality time with one another. We all can't wait to go back. read more

Some friends invited us here for lunch on Saturday. I had no idea this spot existed but glad we were introduced! They have a full food and bar menu. Currently, if you check in on Yelp (which why would you not?) there is an offer for a free drip coffee or mimosa! I tried the 'Fox in the Forest' mocktail. It's labeled as seasonal but they had the ingredients to make it for me. Zero proof rum (this tasted just like regular rum, it even burned a little bit), Pumpkin Butternut Spice Syrup, and Ginger Beer. If you like rum, but don't like how rum treats you, give this a try. For food, my husband and I split the 'Patchwork' pizza (build your own) with white sauce, mushrooms, green peppers, and black olives. This was phenomenal!! I was honestly shocked at the quality of their pizza. I kept telling everyone how amazing it was lol. The crust was even good - cooked perfectly, 10/10 will eat again! Our friends ordered the 'Rex' pizza (meat lovers) and they seemed to really enjoy it. They also ordered a Caesar salad. Their daughter ordered the breakfast burrito and a banana pudding milkshake. The table shared an order of 'Cinnamon Knots' that were good but not great. I think the dipping sauce was missing but not sure that would have made that much of a difference. We played a couple of games while we were there. The cost is $7 a person for a game pass, and you have access to unlimited games. I was a little overwhelmed by the amount of games they had lol. There were nostalgic games from my childhood, more current games, trivia, strategy, silly games, serious games, games for group and couples, just absolutely everything you could think of. They have a QR code available that leads to a game guide if you need help narrowing down your choices. Our server said they are in the process of updating the guide but they were available if we needed assistance. Overall a good experience. The pizza was excellent, service was ok (there was a bottle filler near our table so we got our own water refills), and I wish we had had more time to take full advantage of our $14 worth of game passes but not a big deal. We only ended up playing 2 short children's games while we were there, after eating and trying to clear off a spot for the games to go (lots of plates to clear off). Side note - when you're done with a game, put it on the return bookshelf instead of trying to put it back in its spot. This helps the staff with game organization. We'll definitely be back for the pizza! And games if friends want to go with us. read more

We decided to try shuffle for date night and it was a hit! They have a decent drink / cocktail menu and a few food items. We had a charcuterie board to snack on while trying new board games which was very fun! We were a little limited since there were only 2 of us but they have a good selection of games for 2 players. We would definitely go back with friends to try on more board games. The game pass you purchase allow you to play as many games as you want. On Thursday the game pass is half price. If you like one of the board games they also have some available to purchase. There is plenty of space for groups to come and play games. We saw a lot of other couples there on a date. The staff were friendly and helpful! read more

If I could give 10 stars, I would! Long story short, our party of 50 messed up and forgot to confirm our reservation. Thankfully, Amanda and Brandon took our call 1 hour before our suspected reservation, and made it work!!! We had a pizza buffet, 100 drinks, a game master, and our amazing personal server LANCE! Sure it was a bit chaotic to start, but within 10 minutes, they hit their groove and went above and beyond for our party with kids, people in wheelchairs, and multiple dietary restrictions. Seriously, I couldn't be happier that the team at Shuffles gave us an incredible experience! Thank you AMANDA, LANCE, BRANDON, and all of the shuffles staff! read more

Been here twice, and both times had to sit at the bar. The first time we sat at the bar due to how busy the place was. The second time we had to sit at the bar because they told us they could get a table ready pretty quickly and told us to wait at the bar... and then proceeded to forget about us. They need a better system of checking people in and putting people on a waitlist. They were not busy at all the second time we came in. Even though we sat at the bar both times, we had great service, great drinks, and great food. Had fun playing some new games as well. read more

Great selection of games and a very friendly staffed (if sometimes overworked due to the size of the crowds). The food and drink options are plentiful, though the portions of the wraps were pretty meager, especially compared to the salads. I was also pretty disappointed at a 4$ charge to make the chicken blackened, when that was a free option for the chicken Caesar salad. The food prices are frankly too high for what you get. Still, it's a lovely atmosphere and one of my favorite hang outs in Tulsa to come visit. I just won't come hungry next time. read more

Whether you're here on a date or with one other friend, or a group of friends, or even family with small children, you can find just about anything- it definitely helps that they have great staff who are knowledgeable about what games could suit you and have plenty of recommendations. I can easily spend a whole day here and want to come back for more! Shuffles is so well-organized, well-thought out, and an incredible place. The moment I stepped in, I was already overwhelmed with the massive selection of games they had in the best way, you can find almost anything here. Unlimited game play for super cheap! Their library of games is what you could imagine a library of books to be. They have posted some game recommendations if you're looking for something you'd like that is similar to games you know. It helps that it's also categorized online as well, with time length, number of people, and game category. Seriously- super well thought out. Once you're finished with the game, there's a return shelf (again, just like a library) where someone will put it back into its well-organized spot back into the library of games. The great thing about Shuffles is that you can also purchase some games that are for sale, whether a bit older for cheap or brand new! The ambiance is incredible. Pretty well-lit, colorful, and also lots of witty commentary on the walls about what the space is intended for. It's a very intentional and playful spot :) looking forward to coming back here in the future. It's definitely worth spending your time and money here! You can also find some delicious little snacks, drinks, or meals. read more

When we visit Tulsa we try to always make a stop here. We love the board game selection. We went on a Thursday so the game passes were half off. I'm hoping one day we can sit on the second level but so far both times we were there that area wasn't being utilized when we were seated. The food is good although a little pricy. Staff is always friendly, they are constantly checking in to make sure you are doing all right and are always happy to give board game selections. We'll continue to come visit when we are in the area. read more

Stoped in earlier this week to play a board game and grab a meal. Our server was Kaitlyn and she was awesome! Very attentive, polite and helpful. I'd not been back here for a few years and enjoyed it. The food may be a little better now than what it used to be. However, the homemade ranch has way too much dill in it guys...let's temper that down. I was stoked when Kaitlyn mentioned the ranch was homemade. Kind of a let down for a big ranch guy. Other than that it was probably an 8/10 with the service being the highlight. Thanks read more

Had a fantastic time with our adult kids. Good drinks, very knowledgeable staff, and so many fun games to play!

Fantastic full-service restaurant, bar, coffee shop, and open-box game library in downtown Tulsa to hang out and have a fun time with family and friends of all ages. There's a huge library of card/board games to choose from, and they also serve some delicious food for dinner and weekend brunch along with a variety of drinks. Their shareable appetizers are really yummy, especially the parmesan fries, fried pickles, and tempura broccoli. Some of their cocktails and mocktails are named based off of popular game or film franchises like Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Star Trek, Harry Potter, and various others. They also make adult boozy milkshakes and coffee! The owner and staff members are always very nice and have plenty of recommendations to suggest based what style of game you like. The price for playing the games is reasonable, and they will host weekly trivia nights and half-off game pass nights. Some of our favorite card/board games (many expansion packs are available too) include Settlers of Catan, Bang!, Dominion, Exploding Kittens, Pandemic, Ticket to Ride, and Betrayal at House on the Hill. Definitely a unique place worth checking out! read more

We were very pleased with the overall customer service, atmosphere, and the interactions with our server, Lance. Lots of games to choose from and also some amazing food! They need something like this in Indiana. Great location and would recommend to others. read more

I have been to shuffle's a couple of times and I went for Trivia last night. It was so fun! The guy running it was really nice and the app that you used was very easy. We had a lot of fun and definitely will go back to this again. We ordered the chicken pot stickers and the parmesan fries. The fries were very fresh and perfectly cooked. And nobody judged me when I ordered a bottle of champagne just for myself lol. I look forward to going for more Trivia! read more

This place has a fun family friendly vibe. 7$ per person to play as many board games as you want. Me and my friends really just came for dinner to celebrate my birthday and to try it out. We love coffee shops and places to eat out where we can chat. We ended up not wanting to play games. It started getting a little loud and tables are pretty close together. I kept wondering if our conversations were annoying to the family next to us. It literally felt like they were a part of our table...only like 6 inches apart. I feel like it's not really a coffee, tea, drink and chat sort of place. It's much more of come with friends or family with intent to pay 7$ a person to play board games. Cool concept, was pretty full when we left so I'm assuming very popular. Seems like a great place to make memories and spend quality time. Giving only 4 starts because the food was just ok, did not really enjoy a family being seated so close to us, and it seemed a bit pricey for the type of food that was served. I do think it is pretty good overall for the atmosphere and uniqueness they are trying to create. Others looking for this sort of thing will love it! read more

Came to shuffles recently with friends just to hang out. Weirdly enough, we didn't go to play games. We thought about it, but decided that since it was a Friday, $5 per person per hour was more than we were wanting to spend at the time. So instead we went for drinks and also ended up ordering an appetizer. I think what brought us here for drinks rather than a more typical spot was that we liked that it WASN'T a typical bar or club type situation, but also not a restaurant either. It was a good way to get drinks in a super casual (and chill) environment. Plus the drinks themselves are a decent price, at least comparable to other places if not cheaper, so that's always good. I ordered an LIT which wasn't on the menu. It was $7 or $8 dollars. I thought it was kind of weak. Even the tea part itself didn't seem very strong of a flavor for some reason. I had my friends try and they thought so too, so I knew I wasn't just being crazy. So we all agreed that they either disguised it really well, or there really wasn't much in there, haha. My friends thought I should say something, but I really don't like doing that so I decided to just finish it. I also tried my friend's bees knees cocktail. Personally I wasn't a fan, but I'm pretty picky when it comes to drinks. I can see how others might enjoy it, and I think she did. My other friend got a white claw which I also tried and also didn't like. I didn't realize it was basically just fizzy water (which I hate lol), so that makes sense that I didn't like that one for that specific reason. Oh! And I almost forgot about the food we got. We ordered the frites to share and they were yummy. They came out super hot too which is great. Thick fries (potato wedges, really) with a nice consistency- barely crispy on the outside, and smooth in the inside. I also liked the seasoning, which I believe was mostly garlic and some parmesan. They tasted peppery to me as well, but my friends didn't see it, so maybe I was imagining flavors! The frites came with three sauces: ranch, honey mustard, and ketchup. My friends thought it was the ranch that was spicy but I'm sticking to that it was pepper on the fries. Either way, they were a good snack. Hope to go back sometime when they have better deals, specifically for game playing!! read more

My boyfriend and I were really excited to come here, as a coworker recommended it to him (so we had our expectations high). Upon walking in, the front desk worker greets us and asks if it's our first time, to which we reply "yes". You'd think you would want newcomers to have the best impression, however we proceed to be sat in the corner directly next to another couple. And by directly, I mean the tables were not even a foot apart. I could hear the guy next to me thinking. We look at the menus, trying to shrug off the poor seating. We started with the fried pickles appetizer, which took FOREVER to come out. (The Society is 10/10 and maybe an 8 minute drive from here with free parking, their fried pickles are superior). My boyfriend reached in and grabs a pickle out that has a literal hair in it. I was so shocked & because of how close the couple was to us, I didn't want to make a scene, but I had to laugh and say "HAIR!!!" My boyfriend got so upset at this point because of just how dissatisfied we already were with the seating/atmosphere and wait time, that he flicked the hair off and threw the pickle aside (so unfortunately I got no photo proof of it). We text each other and decide not to order entrees, just play in their free trivia night and leave. Trivia didn't go much better. There needs to be a system to ensure no cheating, as it was evident the first place player googled all the answers. We got fed up and left. Wouldn't recommend coming here, save your money and go to The Society or Foxy Tacos. Not worth $7 each to play unpopular games with another couple practically sitting on your lap. read more

Be mindful when bringing your own games, they will tell you it's $7 per person to rent theirs but then fail to notify you that playing your OWN GAMES even a CARD GAME you WILL be charged 7$ per person. It's a gimmick to make more $, I'm very mad and will do my best to avoid them again. The server apologized for not explaining the rules correctly and instead of refunding the $14, gave a token for free game play "next time" (which I hope will be never) The drinks took FOREVER to come out and never came out at the same time (I was halfway through mine each time by the time my husbands came out. The coffee tasted over roasted, under sweet and no flavor of lavender or pumpkin spice. The server didn't check on the table often and seemed like she had too much on her plate. read more

Quite the cool place for a chill afternoon or anytime of day! We came here with the kids and everyone enjoyed it. The staff was very friendly, the owner came and said hi and suggested a few games. Our waitress suggested a few and showed us how they worked also. The food is great! We had the friend picked which were freshly made, the sauce was excellent. Kids had toast and jam and some bacon...there isn't a ton of stuff the kids would eat so we just made a few small selections which they loved. They have a great beer selection... We also ordered garlic knots, the one thing we both agreed is they were VERY much over seasoned and we are tasting garlic for the last day..the red sauce was also great but the same very garlicky...they were great and next time we are going to see if we can get them just plain /: the dough was great. We all agree we will be back! read more

I wanted to not like this place. But, it's just absolutely great. The owner treats you with respect. He reminds me of the guys I went to college with at University of Kentucky (Lexington and Louisville) he is very imaginative and creative. It's a safe space to express ideas... doesn't have a problem with women that love Jesus and bourbon. It reminds of the Kentucky attention to detail. He really could jump on a bandwagon of Tulsa's elite that hate women in business. But, it's not really his style. I don't feel judged for my opinions. It's not political. It's a fun atmosphere. It practices inclusiveness. I'm a DND person, so I love my friends at TCC that play here read more

Eh it was ok, they really didn't have that many games. Food is ok. Not sure if we'll go back but it was cool to go at least once.

We haven't been out that much since Covid and we ventured down town to Shuffles...this place was amazing!! We had such a wonderful time playing games and eating dinner. The food was wonderful and the game selection was enormous.The staff was great and we especially enjoyed the game "expert" helping us choose games and how to play them. It was so cool to see families gathered around tables playing games and everyone having a great time. We will definitely be back to Shuffles and will let our friends know read more

Food was great, Service was amazing, Ambiance felt quite tight but all in all had a great DINING experience. Though I do not agree with the pay to play option at the restaurant since there whole forte is around board games; at least should be free (for some games). But nonetheless I would return again for the food, and drink selection. read more

Incredible concept! The food was amazing!! My daughter said it was the best chicken and waffles she's ever had, and the pizza and Bacon chicken ranch wrap was delicious!

the concept of this place is dope. board games while enjoying food & beverage. i came strictly for brunch, ended up partaking in a game of tumblin' dice while waiting for my order. i got the german pancakes: griddle cakes rolled-up in butter, brown sugar & cinnamon. i wasn't convinced that syrup was in the mix (the bartender asked if i wanted extra), it taste like it. i kept thinking it was just the butter/brown sugar/cinnamon combo, it was the right amount in every bite. the bacon was slightly crispy while the bowl of fruit (grapes, banana, watermlon & orange) brings it all in. as i was waiting on my order, i was asked to play for somebody with 3 others. we played tumblin'-dice at the bar, it was cool. i liked the seating, you can sit a the booths on the side of the wall, the bar, a real big table in the middle that can sit about 15 people while there's other seating options going past the bar. as far as the games go, i'll have a better idea of what they have when i re-visit for a meeting. read more

Great game nerd spot. Large selection of games to choose from, from multi-hour to quick ones. On Sat night, there was definitely a wait you want to plan for - we lucked out cause we were only two people and a table opened up quickly. Didn't try much food as we went after dinner but we definitely saw attractive food around us. Highlight for me was the attention not just from wait staff but from the "Game Navigator" (rules and gameplay guru) who went around asking if people needed help with games, etc. Never played before? No problem... recommendations and tips. Better than a movie? Heck yea! read more

Shuffles is a unique concept where you can enjoy playing board games while you eat and drink. We went in on a Friday during lunch while board games are free, but I think it is 5 dollars per hour per person at night. The owner said weekends are packed. They have a massive selection of games that all seem very interesting. We also had the bean dip plate and a peanut butter shake that were both really tasty. read more
