Mentiin iltasella kaverien kanssa pelaamaan lautapelejä ja juomaan olutta, ja paikassa on myös aika laaja lanitusalue. Oli kiva pelivalikoima ja saatiin kasattua pöydistä, sohvasta ja penkeistä meille sopiva istuma-alue, ja viihdytti myös sivusta seurata viereisen seurueen MtG-taisteluita. Kiva että tällasia luolia Suomessakin vielä löytyy. Went here in the evening with some friends to grab drinks and play some tabletop games, and there's a whole LAN setup in the back. Game selection was good, and was able to rearrange some seating a bit to meet our group's needs, and watched a few close MtG duels in the next table over. Really nice that dens like this still exist in Finland.

Internet cafe and board game area, also some video game stations. Not bad but not that exciting unless you want to play something specifically. A few beers and cocktails but not cheap, $8-11.
