First off, Goodtime has a great selection of games for any number of players, perhaps as one would expect from a board game cafe. They also have a good range of food (we had snacks and bits n bobs, but I understand their pizza is their main event). We had the milkshake (made from local ingredients) which was absolutely delicious, some tortilla chips with dips (generous helping of delicious guacamole, salsa and hummus). We later ordered a round of cauliflower wings (which we found slightly mushy) and wedges (nothing special, and the chipotle mayo was basically just normal mayo). The staff were very helpful in selecting and recommending good games, the food came reasonably fast. The only negative with service was there was some confusion as we arrived as to whether there was availability, and we were only given a five minute warning to finish up our game on our table (I think half hour warnings would be far more appropriate for this type of venue). Overall, great and will be returning!
