Weekday unlimited play at ₩5,000: is it good for elementary kids?
A great spot for my elementary son and his friend to meet and play! Hero Board Game Cafe Nowon Branch has a weekday unlimited plan, so ₩5,000 gets you a whole day of playing!
At the snack bar corner you can order various drinks and snacks.
The self-service corner even has blankets ready. There's a puzzle event going on too!!
Such a variety of board games, wow~~ so many kinds! Well maintained too.
Great taste in the playlist too~~ music and all.
It's much bigger than I expected~
You can play in each room, but
there are also games you can play in the main hall. A PlayStation is set up too.
Rooms let you choose floor seating or tables. 2-, 4-, 6-, 8-person seats and more, even a large party room. Open the side door and it becomes an even bigger room. Would be great for a group of university students too.
Rates and menu at Hero Board Game Cafe Nowon
Enter before 2pm on weekends and get a free drink (americano or iced tea). On weekdays, the unlimited rate is ₩5,000 per person, the basic rate is ₩3,000 per hour, and teens pay ₩2,000 per hour.
There are over 30 kinds of bingsu (shaved ice dessert). With drinks, snacks, and full meals too, you could play here all day and get dinner sorted as well.
Asking for the Nintendo room on a Friday evening
The kids love Nintendo, so I asked for the Nintendo room right at check-in. You leave your ID or a card and can use the Nintendo cartridges.
Friday evening — let the kids blow off a week's worth of stress too.
Dinner sorted: chicken mayo rice bowl and honey butter garlic fries
My son's friend came straight from academy, so before dinner~ ordered the chicken mayo rice bowl, honey butter garlic fries, and iced tea~~
I asked for the honey butter garlic fries sauce on the side, and they gave it separately like this. Nice being able to dip as much sauce as you want this way.
Dinner sorted~ chicken mayo rice bowl.
With the unlimited plan we didn't have to watch the clock and could play as much as we wanted, which was great. Last time we had to stop halfway through a game because it took too long to finish~ this time we finished everything we wanted to play before leaving.
Who is Hero Board Game Cafe Nowon best for?
My son's friend said he'd use his free birthday month coupon — with birthday perks like that, you could even throw a birthday party here. It's a great indoor spot to enjoy board games with family, and a nice board game room for couples' indoor dates too.
Hero Board Game Cafe Nowon Branch feels like the kind of place you'd think of more on cold days, hot days, or rainy days. I'll have to come back often on weekdays for that unlimited plan.
