I come here every week for different games and it's always good. I love that you can get a beer here. The community is very nice. Don't expect the food to be gourmet, but it's better than starving. Great shop, big shoutout to Tristan, Matt and Lexi.

I have more food related allergies than you can shake a stick at. I asked one of the employees here if their sauces/ flavoring syrups had any soy (one of my allergies). I can't tell you how many people or places I've asked that that have dismissed or brushed me off with an "i don't know" or "look online" The person I asked immediately checked all the ingredients in my requested drink to make sure there was nothing I couldn't have. Just no questions asked immediately accommodated me. That's not something you see everyday Made my heart happy

While the staff and the concept for the place are both great, the chairs suck, especially if you're there for more than half an hour, and it seems like whenever they're busy, they're so packed it's hard to find a spot to sit. That said, there are not many places like this and it's very special. The decor is great, The branding on the menu is really good, and while they don't have a huge selection of games, they do carry good products and their prices are reasonable.

I love coming to this place to hangout and build Lego or play a board game. It’s always very chill and everyone is so welcoming. Amber is such a pleasure to see and her drinks are fabulous!! Good drinks, atmosphere, and people!

Wonderfully friendly staff. Very roomy with plenty of tables to play any game that you feel like. The games that they have here for sale are very reasonably priced and there is a good selection. The coffee shop is very convenient and has good food. We will definitely be visiting again

The atmosphere is lovely! There's a diverse group of friendly players and helpful staff. The place is also covered in very artistic and immersive decorations! The food and drinks are good too. I've never gotten a bad coffee from them and their cinnamon rolls are delicious!

There are some fun flares to the food here. I remain optopistic for more variety. Service at this location is informative and friendly, very well done! The atmosphere esthetically is on point, however, the temperature inside mirrors outside, if it's cold out. Overall, I look forward to my excursions to Dungeon's & Javas. Keep up the great job!I'm looking forward with you to see how business evolves.

Bottom Line: This is my go-to place for gaming, specializing in RPGs of all kinds; board games; and card games (Magic: The Gathering and Yu-Gi-Oh), with every gaming convenience built in. The "Javas" in the name refers to the bar (coffee and alcohol) that also serves food, and while anyone can come in and order food/drink, the vibe is designed for this to be refreshments while gaming. First off, let's get to the gaming. I mainly play Magic, and I have played at several places in Colorado Springs. Dungeons & Javas (D&J) is, in my opinion, the best choice in several areas. It has the largest playing area I have seen, and they put it to use. I have attended events with more than 60 players in my event, even while they hosted another event with 30+ players simultaneously. I can't think of another store that could boast this turnout and the appropriate accommodations. Next for gaming comes the private rooms. They have several private rooms for rent to play RPGs (like the namesake Dungeons and Dragons) or board games, and they also have a selection of games off the shelf to borrow. I have not rented one yet, but I have seen several parties in there all having a blast, and I look forward to a chance for myself. Finally for gaming comes the singles counter. This is a defining area for serious gamers, and they have a great selection of singles in the case, organized binders of less valuable cards, and bulk common bins. One thing I really like is that when new Magic sets come out, they have a special section of rares they keep so that people can easily go through them (ranging from $1 to $200, everything is set aside and not in the case for the first month or so). This is really convenient for working through a collection or deck with new cards. They also have very good buy rates, especially if you do store credit (70% if I recall). Most importantly is the friendly staff helping at the singles counter. I have asked them to independently authenticate expensive cards (not for sale, so no conflict of interest), and they walked me through all their steps and spent a lot of time with me. They also have given (in my opinion) objectively good advice to kids about what cards or packs to buy, even steering them away from more expensive buys that better fit the kid's decks. As a parent, I love to see this. Then of course, there is the "Javas" section. Inside the store, there is a bar for coffee and alcohol. They come up with their own gamer-themed cocktails that are cool and interesting, and also taste great. Every time I go in there, they have expanded to a new offering, whether it's a seasonal menu, new alcohol, or new food. The food is, to my knowledge, not cooked on-prem, but the drinks are. The food is things like frozen pizza, which is a welcome snack for a long gaming session. They also have a-la-carte pastries, which I always make sure I get during a pre-release Magic event, as they are the perfect pick-me-up during a 6-hour event. Funnily, Google Reviews treats this like a restaurant in the review layout. It is one, and as I said before, anyone can come in and order - but realistically, the intent is to have a gamer convenience. This is just one of many details they get right as they set up an ideal location to game.
