2-in-1 Escape: Play, Snack, and Relax at JB’s Boardgame Café in Mount Austin

#favouriteitinerary We recently stumbled upon an absolute gem in Mount Austin – *A Boardgame Café*, a one-of-a-kind spot that cleverly combines the charm of a cozy café with the convenience of a store, offering an experience that's both relaxing and thrilling. The café boasts a spacious interior with large tables and comfy seating, creating a welcoming atmosphere perfect for enjoying hours of fun. Whether you're grabbing a quick snack or settling in for a longer session, the menu features a range of delicious treats, from crispy waffles and juicy chicken nuggets to an impressive selection of instant noodles and chilled bottled drinks that cater to all tastes. The real magic lies in the boardgame offerings. For just RM20 per person for 2 hours or RM30 for a full day, you get unlimited access to an expansive collection of games – an unbeatable deal for boardgame enthusiasts. The staff at *A Boardgame Café* are incredibly friendly and always ready to assist. They're eager to help you choose the perfect game based on your preferences – whether you’re in the mood for a strategic challenge, a game of luck, or a fun team-based game for larger groups. Their recommendations were spot-on, making it easy for us to jump into games like *Marrakech* and *Splendor*, which we played for hours on end. As first-time visitors, we had an amazing time, and it quickly became the highlight of our JB day trip. The relaxed atmosphere, the delicious snacks, and the friendly staff all made for an unforgettable experience. We’re already planning our next visit to *A Boardgame Café* and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun and affordable way to spend the day. Whether you’re a boardgame aficionado or just looking for a unique place to hang out with friends, this spot in Mount Austin is a must-visit! #myitinerary #localfood #couplestrip #thingstodo #citydaytours
