Geeky Teas & Games - Burbank, California

Megan P.

The best game store in the world! The friendly and knowledgeable staff has helped us many times find the perfect game for ourselves and others. We’re so excited about and happy with the new space. So much room for tables and gaming! The showroom is always well-stocked with a wide variety of games for groups of all sizes, interests, and skill levels. So grateful Geeky Teas is our local spot. We look forward to coming back over and over for years to come!

This is the best game store I have ever been in! It is HUGE. They have several private rooms with different themes, a huge play area for warhammer-esque games and a separate room that connects to it for painting your miniatures, 2 large rooms for playing tabletop games with the option to borrow games as well, and lastly the main store room with their products for sale.

Everything was well dusted and organized, with even more artwork to view.

Mr. President a tuxedo cat has free reign of the place and is the cherry on top of the best game store I have ever entered.

Crossed the country for a week to run games here. All the staff were very friendly. Mr. President and the other cats were a nice touch. I rented three of their themed rooms to GM three different games. My players all had a great time and the rooms added that extra touch. A very enjoyable gaming shop.

Lovely shop! Had a good selection of Battletech boxes, although no scheduled play.
There were kitties! One was free roaming with a toy, while most were in a small side room.
I'd visit again.

I live in the central valley and this is by far the best game shop in my 2 hour drive radius. Now if I am ever in the area I make a point of stopping.
1st their selection is top notch, it rivals most online game stores and prices are all super reasonable. I bought 3 games I haven't seen on any shelves after looking for years (2 Rooms and a Boom looking at you).
2nd their name sake looseleaf teas are amazing, most have witty punny nerd names we now have 4 miscellaneous bags in our cupboard so far none have disappointed.
3rd play space and library are awesome great price for play time and solid library of games to choose also they have private rooms you can get too.

Minor downsides I've been twice one was busy but I could have played the second was about an hour wait for a table, so plan ahead.

Second I would love if they had some hot water kettles to drink said teas.

This spot is fantastic. Bought card sleeves, three board games, and rented out a room for a few hours. All very reasonably priced and the staff love what they do and are just huge fans of all geekdom.

I even came to a Pokémon prerelease event and it was so fun! I’m a beginner and new to the TCG world and everyone was so welcoming as they crushed my hastily built decks.

A great experience to be sure.

Another note. Their rewards program is actually quite robust and you can build up point very quickly. I highly recommend utilizing it if you’re planning on building out your game collection.

Be sure to say hi to Mr President (the store cat) and maybe adopt a kitty next time your there 🥰

This was really a magical place that I'm so glad to have stumbled upon during my search for the latest "Magic: The Gathering" release.

Well before entering, it's clear that you're about to be among friends. Welcomed by a life size TARDIS outside the main doors, I was already grinning before I stepped inside. But the real show starts once you walk in, and only gets better as you continue to explore the building.

I understand they're moving soon, to a larger building, so if you want to experience what I did, make your way there soon!

Once you enter, you're greeted on your left by the friendly staff behind the counter, eager to inform and aid the stream of gamers coming and going. On your right, several windows give view to a room made out to look like a medieval dungeon; the perfect spot to pray for Nat 20s as you adventure through the forgotten realms.

Continuing through, a lively noise begins to pick up as you realize how many excited gamers have come to play. Countless tables, filled with all sorts of different games, are occupied by exuberant gamers, surrounded by walls painted with fanciful murals, and decorated with a host of medieval swords and shields. Adding to the aesthetic are a host of fun obscure items, ranging from small tables arranged with gaming materials, to a life-size Dalek positioned in the center of the first floor.

"This place is great!", I commented to a man selling me a booster pack, "I love all the gaming rooms!"

"Thanks!", he replied, "Did you see the one in the back?"

My eyes widened. There was more to behold?!? True to his word, the gentleman pointed me down a hallway, where even more gamers played the hours away in a comfortable, inviting store that I can't wait to return to.

What a cool place to geek out over some games! The outside looks a bit sketch but the inside is full of fun surprises. Helpful staff, nice folks. There’s a small room for cat rescue (volunteers only, though you can see the babies through the window), there’s a nook selling specialty teas that you can sample/smell, and there are private rooms and tables you can reserve to play DnD campaigns or the likes. Place is packed to the brim with all sorts of board games and supplies to paint miniatures. If you pay the $5 fee you can go into a separate area to play whatever games are stocked on the shelves, and there are plenty! Great fun for all ages, am definitely coming back with a larger group next time.
