For many of us, board games were an integral part of our childhood. Whether your household favorite was Candyland, Clue, Mad Gab, or another classic, you likely enjoyed countless evenings filled with laughter, a bit of sibling rivalry, and good old-fashioned family bonding. While many of us haven’t picked up these old games in years, the cherished memories of family game nights can be relived at an amazing cafe in Tempe that has a delightful menu, a full bar, and over 1,000 different card and board games for guests to enjoy for free!

Snakes & Lattes is a Canada-based business, but Tempe is the proud home of its only U.S. location.

It might look like an unassuming coffee shop on the outside, but you’ll find a fantastically fun surprise inside.

Named after the board game "Snakes & Ladders," this hip cafe is a perfect hangout spot for families and friends alike.

The impressive collection of games includes everything from classic childhood favorites to modern-day tabletop games that you may have never even heard of before. You might even walk away with a brand new favorite!

The 1,000+ games are easy to get lost in, but you won’t have any trouble finding the one you are looking for; the collection is alphabetically organized for easy access.

There is plenty of table space available for playing card games like Magic the Gathering, rolling dice with you D&D adventuring party, or just spreading out a nostalgic favorite like Clue. It’s hard to find a game that isn’t played at Snakes & Lattes!

To keep the hunger pangs at bay, peruse the menu offering everything from snacks and small bites to full meals.

Juicy burgers, pizza, salads, mac & cheese, and soft pretzel bites are just a few of the delicious options.

Have you ever tried poutine? This dish definitely shows off Snakes & Lattes’ Canadian roots, and it’s a must-try while you’re here.

Crispy fries are topped with cheese curds, gravy, and scallions - and that’s just the basic version. If you're feeling especially adventurous, try the Southwestern or Korean styles.

Chances are you'll get a little thirsty as well, so head over to the full bar for a cocktail, glass of wine, or one of several on-tap draft beers.

Happy Hour takes place daily from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. and on Monday through Thursday from 10 p.m. until closing time.

There are plenty of non-alcoholic beverages as well, including an extensive coffee menu.

Nutella, caramel, and chai lattes only scratch the surface of indulgent, comforting concoctions (not to mention the talented baristas' handiwork!)

The next time you’re in the mood for a nostalgic night that takes you back to your childhood or you want to have a carefree day trying out a brand new game with friends, head for Snakes & Lattes in Tempe.

With great food, delicious drinks, and thousands of game options to choose from, this awesome spot has everything you need to have an excellent experience.
