    Murder Mystery passengers. ..or are they suspects
    Vikki C.

    I have attended special events at Side Quest for years. The crowd they bring in are all so kind, friendly and inclusive. The staff are fabulous and really make everyone feel welcomed and valued. The selection of games is great! They have a wide variety of miniatures and figurines. You can even paint your own figurines on special paint nights. Every Friday they stay open late for Magic Fridays. Everything I have ever bought at Side Quest was priced really well when compared with other shops. I think the owners really try to keep their prices as low as possible. The location is nice because it is near Cal Poly Pomona, dining, and a Starbucks. My family and I attended a Murder Mystery there last night. It was so incredibly fun. And all of the guests went all out on their costumes. They served a meal which was included in the price. And they had a professional Murder Mystery planner for the event! It was really well done. I can't wait for the next one.

    My first experiences with dnd were at side quest and I cannot recommend this shop enough to new and seasoned players.

    A&N Collectibles has become our go to card shop whenever my kids get the urge to rip some Pokémon…read morepacks. The funny thing is there are actually closer card shops to us, but we still choose to make the drive here because the prices are consistently better. I've compared them against a couple of other local shops and even many vendors at Frank & Sons, and A&N usually comes out ahead. What really stood out during our latest visit was how fair they were with store credit. I brought in some cards from my personal collection that I was willing to part with, and they offered a value that felt reasonable and honest. That store credit quickly turned into Pokémon packs for the kids, which immediately made their day. Seeing my kids walk out of the store excited and holding their new haul reminded me why we keep coming back. Good prices, fair trade values, and a family friendly experience go a long way. We'll be back once we've worked our way through this stack of packs.

    We love this store. There's a review below saying this store re seals packs - think about how…read morestupid that is. Why would they go though all that work to make a few extra dollars when if they do that they would not have a business. Ripping you off for a few dollars a pack is not the business model. Chances are, Desiree, your son doesn't know what comes with what set. The owner here is a stand up guy. We have been coming here for years and he's always been pleasant to deal with , and very fair. They have so much variety here , whether it's sports cards , pokemon , or other collectibles. I highly recommend.

Whether you're into Pokémon, One Piece, Magic, or board games, they have an awesome selection and a really friendly community vibe. What stood out most was how helpful everyone was -- no pressure, just people who love the hobby and want others to enjoy it too. The store is clean, organized, and has a great atmosphere for both casual players and serious collectors. You can tell they care about creating a fun space for the community.

He brushed us off and he looked annoyed that we didn't know what we were doing. I mean, yes, we didn't know what we were doing, because we're not in the realm of card games. We're just picking up a gift. When we tried getting a card binder that didn't have a price, he didn't even know what price the binder was so he had to ask. Then when we grabbed a less expensive one, he was like "that ones for top loaders." We didn't know what that was so when we asked, he seemed very annoyed. We went to go grab a different one real quick and got sent to the back of the line. Very poor taste left in our mouth, probably will end up going to a different card shop in the future.

    Walked over to the other side of Garey Ave to antique row after our early dinner and checked out…read moreGame Nights which is usually super packed during 2nd Saturday art walks. We chatted with Kyle the owner who has intimate knowledge of 80% of the games in the store, having played them at least once. My husband bought the newest version of Horrified which is a series of cooperative games in which you are vanquishing monsters and saving villagers, this one is Dungeons and Dragons themed. Meanwhile, I talked with Andrew, a game enthusiast who had just purchased a huge game box with cards and dragon figures and was learning how to play it. Tuesdays are game nights there for people looking to play board games with a group. There are several tables for that purpose, and so many games for single players, duos, and larger groups. Super fun store!

    Over the past year, we placed pre-orders for five separate releases. Five times, we were let down…read more Each time, we chose to support Game Nights because we believe in backing local game stores and building a healthy community. Each time, that trust was misplaced. Not only did we fail to receive our pre-orders on all five occasions, but the owner never once reached out to inform us that the products had not arrived. Every single time, we had to contact him ourselves on release day to discover--again--that nothing was coming. That lack of communication is what hurts the most. Even if product allocation was an issue, there was no courtesy, no transparency, and no respect shown toward loyal customers who planned ahead and committed to pre-order their products from Game Nights. A simple message would have allowed us to secure our orders elsewhere. Instead, we were left in the dark--repeatedly--and were informed too late to buy products at MSRP. This isn't just unprofessional; it makes it incredibly difficult to justify supporting this store at all. Adding to the frustration, the owner has also begun removing gaming space, further destroying the community that once made this shop special. Game Nights used to feel like a true community hub--a place where people gathered around Yu-Gi-Oh, One Piece, MTG, board games, parties, special occasions, and more. Now, it feels like a business focused solely on extracting every possible dollar, with little regard for the community that helped build it. We understand that running an LGS is hard. We can empathize with the challenges of keeping a struggling business afloat. What we cannot excuse is the ongoing, disrespect toward the very customers who go out of their way to offer consistent support, only to be mistreated time and time again. If you're looking to reliably pre-order TCG products, we strongly recommend considering these alternatives in the area: Lost Level - Strong community, active Discord, and dependable pre-orders A&N Collectible - Community could improve, but pre-orders are consistent Miss Play - New and growing; pre-orders may vary, but the community is welcoming Side Quest - Beautiful space; we haven't pre-ordered yet, but plan to in the future Ultimately, the repeated failures, lack of communication, and disregard for loyal customers are driving people away and have reduced this store to an empty shell of its former self. We mourn the loss of what was once a beautiful third space for our community, and it is deeply tragic that the owner shows no willingness to change. Supporting local businesses only works when that support is respected and reciprocated--and here, it simply wasn't. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Response to Kylan S.: While you may not have explicitly labeled them as "pre-orders," these transactions were consistently discussed as such with your players, and no clarifications were made regarding this "wish list." This left many members of the community with the clear impression that products had been reserved. Instead of out right lying to them, you are now having them lie to themselves. Your response only reinforces the concern about the lack of professional and transparent communication with your supporters. If this same level of clarity carries over to your distributors, it is unfortunately not surprising that product availability has been an ongoing issue. Thank you for the apology. We hope that Game Nights can one day return to being the space our community once loved.
