My partner and I have been coming to this card shop about every other week since he got really into…read moreLorcana, and we've had a great experience every time. They have a really good selection of Lorcana cards and booster boxes, and the staff is always kind, patient, and helpful. Since we're still pretty new to collecting, we've asked a lot of questions, and they've been great about giving recommendations on what is worth buying and what we probably don't need to spend money on. I really appreciate that they're helpful without making you feel pressured to buy something. They also run tournaments during the week and on weekends for different card games, so it seems like a great place if you're looking for more of a community rather than just somewhere to buy cards. As someone who wasn't originally into trading cards, I did feel a little out of place at first since there usually aren't many women in the shop, but everyone has always been welcoming. Now that I'm getting into Pokémon cards myself, I actually enjoy coming here too! Parking has always been easy for us with plenty of spaces available. The shop is across from Diamond Bar High School and tucked into the corner of the plaza, so keep an eye out for it. Definitely a great local card shop, especially if you're new to the hobby and want knowledgeable people who are actually willing to help.

To be honest, I came here because I'm just getting into Magic and wanted to pick up a few booster…read morepacks. The shop is close to where I live, so I figured I'd check it out. As soon as I walked in, I noticed it was pretty busy, but the store was bright, clean, and welcoming. There were people all around playing matches, which was really cool to see and gave the place a great atmosphere. The checkout counter was located toward the back of the store. I wanted to ask about some Final Fantasy booster packs, so I waited at the counter to speak with an employee. There was an Asian guy wearing a cap, glasses, and a purple jacket working behind the counter. I stood there for about 15-20 minutes waiting to be helped. During that time, I wasn't acknowledged once, even though he was quick to chat with people he seemed to know and assist other customers. After waiting that long without even a simple "I'll be with you in a moment," I left with a bad taste in my mouth. It was frustrating because I came in ready to make a purchase, but instead I ended up pissed off

From the moment you walk in, the individuals here really want to connect and learn about what your needs are. I actually came here for a DnD one-shot for my friend's birthday. I absolutely love the side room they have for this that is very well organized and accomodating. The best, this place isn't just about DnD, there are also Warhammer, Pokemon, One Piece and all sorts of other item you can look forward to. Pricing is on par with other ma and pa game shops, however, what absolutely stands out - how they want to ensure you are taken care of.

In addition they always have pretty exclusive pops. Check out their Instagram @thepokimart and message them to hold something for you and they definitely will. I wish they had their own store so I can visit more than just Wednesdays & Saturdays.

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!

After losing the Game Haus to post-pandemic fallout, there's been a sense of loss in the gaming…read morecommunity. Sure, it was pretty far away (Glendale) from Riverside, but I always enjoyed the trek and good times. Fortunately, Kyle, opened the Game Nights Cafe about 1.5 years ago as of this writing (01/01/2025), and the two-level shop and gamespace provides games to purchase, an impressive library of games to play in-house, and necessary hobby materials, such as Citadel paint, brushes, tools, and even a nifty airbrush set for about $70. After two visits here I'm Reviewing the shop, setting, atmosphere, and special New Year's Eve event. First, my long-time gaming buddy happened upon the store while antique shopping across the street. While Gameology in Upland has been our go-to, the initial appeal was the later hours of operation, especially on Sundays, the day we typically line up. There's a game cover fee, a reasonable $6 per player and good for the entire day. Otherwise, as Kyle mentioned to me, people would stay all day and not even purchase anything. Purchases, however, do offset the cover charge. The basement is where the bright track lights make the full-lenghth space inviting. Many hundreds of games line one wall. All are available for anyone wanting to play. And a significant number of tables and comfortable chairs are another draw. There's also a sizeable space upstairs adjacent to the retail area for games. Kyle invited us to come back for New Year's Eve for food, beverages, and a generous playtime that surpassed 2am. For $40 I was down, especially when I saw how much food was provided. A fullscale Middle Eastern feast, as well as charcuterie, sides, and desserts. Wow! The crowd was also fun and my group quickly befriended another and we played lots of fun games that could support 6 players, including Heat, Acquire, and Inca Gold. All three were in the extensive library previously referenced. In short, they host many events for Magic the Gathering (MTG), Dungeons and Dragons, open play nights, and hopefully more NYE celebrations. Finally, they also have a lot of games and things marked down for quick sales, so consider browsing. Not far away is the Glass House, and somewhere close by is Zoink Records.

That place felt massive. This location does feel a little smaller, but it's still massive. Plenty of vendors and variety, some shady vendors that will overcharge too much or just be plain rude, but overall it's a great experience as you will find very niche and interesting/weird stuff. You will also find vendors selling things for great prices. Make sure to bring cash and most vendors will give you a discount. The only downside is even with the ridiculously large parking area, it STILL fills up every single day. It's literally always busy, so prepare to walk a lot. Always fun to visit every once in a while.

One time, I was looking at buying some TCG cards, when a guy bought a whole booster box, opened them all, picked out the couple cards he wanted and asked the vender if they wanted to buy the rest back. Vender refused, so I offered $20 for everything. It was amazing. Now, it's gotten way too commercial for my liking. Everything cost way more than they should, and You can't find a deal anywhere. Last week, I came in looking for a couple MTG to fill out my cEDH deck. Seller says they price things competitive off TCGPlayer website, and then quoted me $6over the tcg price for a $20 card. He says they have to charge more since the booth costs them money. So... I could just buy online, save the upcharge, and you will have to pay for shipping? Thanks but no thanks.
