  Had such a great experience at the shop today coming in to sell some of my Pokemon collection. Jason and Erin were super friendly. Jason took the time to make sure he didnt buy anything I was too attached to, walked me through comps and condition and was super straightforward and honest about how he purchases cards. I honestly lost track of time chatting because he’s such a nice and interesting guy to just nerd out with. Great vibes. Walked away feeling good about the deal we made. Very honest shop and staff. Also kind of cool and homey feeling in the little attic above the bar. Not sterile

  Neat little game store on the second floor of a bar. The people managing it are great to talk to; they clearly have a lot of passion about games, anime, and nerdy stuff in general. The prices are fair, and they have a lot of stuff, both mainstream and niche. They have events, too, and parking is easy to find. I would definitely be a regular if I lived in Baltimore.

  I've been all over North America and have seen game stores in all corners of it. This is the *coziest* one I've visited. It felt like a really comfy large gaming den that belongs in someone's home, but also there's a cash register and you can buy things. You go in the bar and walk up the staircase in the far corner to get here. At the top of the stairs, there's a calmly-lit, quiet room with 2 large tables, and a few rows of merchandise. I was met with the friendly face and soft voice of the owner. I spoke with him and his one employee for a while and traded in a few pokémon cards. One of the l

  Staff were friendly and even helped guide via phone to store location (upstairs from bar). The area was a little cluttered, but I was able to navigate with no issue. They had a unique selection of ps2 video games, but most I've viewed didn't have a price tag (no worries). When asked for pricing on a few ps2 games, I understood some might be expensive (didn't hurt to ask). I found a ps2 game, I've been eyeing for a while and this store had the best price. The only neg, the owner tossed the games to the side, I wasn't interested in at the moment. Which left me shocked, as I offered to put them b

  I've been here twice and each time the owner and staff were extremely friendly and helpful. This is a great visit for anyone who loves games (board, video, card, etc.) It is located above (and entered through) an adorable bar called The Back Yard.

  This is a very cool, small game store above a corner bar called The Back Yard. This store sells many gaming items, from board games, both new and old, classic video games and consoles, Warhammer minis...honestly, they have a little of everything. If you like games you should just come check it out. It's not exactly like many other game stores; it's in a space above a bar, as I mentioned, and it's a little crowded. it's not a sterile commercial space with rows of identical products for sale. It's the kind of place where you can look around and probably find cool things that you'll enjoy. I play

  Needed some time to kill so I figured I check out this store based on their reviews and late closing time. Ended up talking to the owner, who is a very cool nerdy guy, for more than two hours about collection pieces and tcg. This is an awesome hole in the wall in Baltimore for retro gaming and other collectibles. His prices were fair and there are treasures/gaming history hidden in every corner! I ended up grabbing some bulk cards and gamecube games for my personal collection; definitely will be visiting again whenever i’m in Baltimore
