Crystal Bar And Restaurant

Really great place to enjoy family or friends and some good food and drinks to go along with quite literally EVERY board game you can imagine at your fingertips. The ONLY reason they didn't get 5 stars is because they have a fee of $5 PER PERSON just to sit down. I understand they don't want someone coming in and loafing all day playing games, but if we're ordering cocktails and food, it should be waived entirely.

10 out of 10. Great for a date night, families, friends. I adore this place. My family goes as often as our schedule allows and often on one of birthdays. Cute story, was super pregnant and went in there for blt dip and it was taken off the menu and the lovely owner gave me the recipe to make at home. Love their whole system of ordering, getting help with a game and checking out. Drinks are great. All the food is amazing. The chef or chefs rock. Beautiful atmosphere that has housed so much fun and laughter for us.

Pieces Board Game Bar and Grill was a real treat and one I want to visit again soon. Fun and fantastic food, games, and atmosphere. When we went last night we were the first ones to try their newer flag system (literally brought them out and swapped them on tables while we were there). It is a little easier to understand than the old one. The flag system is great because it helps those working from interrupting your games. The concept is intriguing to say the least. When you come, there is a $5 “library fee” per person. It decreases by $1 for each food or drink item you buy. When you are ready to order you raise up the appropriate (blue) flag. If you need any help with games, you raise the red flag. When you are finished playing, eating, and drinking then you raise the yellow flag for your check. There are countless games from a wide range of genres that works for everyone including solo, two-player, family-friendly, and large group games. Even though alcohol is served, families with even young children should feel comfortable here. We went with friends familiar with the place, but it was our first time and I am excited to go back again soon.

I went to Pieces for their board game meeting on Wednesday. We stayed pretty late and staff checking on us very frequently for drink re-fills and to bring food. They offer free water and food and drink menu with serving staff as desired. The atmosphere was decorated with class board games. They do have some board games available to play; however for meet ups usually people bring their own to play.

Food was good. Had a breakfast burrito with sausage mushrooms potatoes and eggs. Cinnamon rolls are great. Kids love selection of games! Great for the whole family. They also have trivia nights with drink specials. Right next to the Darkness in the heart of Soulard. Great spot to hit before Cards game or after a stroll through the market. Give it a shot, you'll be back.
