Gemoi Lifestyle Cafe — Restaurant in Chiang Mai Province

The idea of the place is nice: pay for drinks and play boardgames, but there are too much "but": The personnel is very unfriendly. I understand that they are not gamemasters and can't advise on games, but can they at least smile sometimes and say hello? You won't think about coming back to this place when you see their grumpy faces. It looks like the guests rudely break in their personal space and they have to tolerate their presence. The ramp to the second floor is just something I can't explain. The one who decided that this is a good solution should suffer as the visitors, who try not to fall while going down. No AC. There are a lot of fans, but it is still hot at the daytime. Toilet is hard to reach and there is no paper. Not very clean as well. The games are located on the narrow balcony of the second floor - not comfortable to get there and choose. Most of the games are in Thai language.

I won't come back here for sure, thankfully, one can find much better places with boardgames...

But they have a lot of games that you can borrow and play, so if youre looking for a modern, spacious & quiet place where you can play board games, this...

Nice place. I’ve been twice now. I’ve played about 8 board games total at both. You get drinks and snacks for 100 baht total and then can play as many games as you like very affordable. Nice selection of games. Interesting and unique atmosphere. I’d say the only downside to sitting on the floor for a long time is your legs cramping up but it’s all good. Also there are Nintendo switches but this cost...
