The Kobold's Lair LLC — Local services in Crescent City

Found this gem of a place randomly while visiting Redwoods on vacation ("wait - stop the car, I think I just saw a Magic: the Gathering poster...")

Classy place! Nice interior and some great tables set up for cards or even wargaming with terrain.

They also have board games alongside the deep-nerdery stuff like D&D.

I was impressed at the caliber of this store considering how small Crescent City is, and will definitely be back the next time we're hiking the Redwoods!

Thanks...

Loving the magic the gathering events so far. The owner, John, is probably one of the nicest, most helpful, humans there is too. Support your...
