DNA Board Games Cafe

Amazing time at DNA board games and cafe yesterday. We went arouns 12.30 to go in for some food at games. A huge variety of games to play for all ages and players. We were only 2 of us so we opted for MOB (great game), Jenga (the bridge version), My City, and a few others. The staff are very helpful. We ordered some drinks, hot chocolate and pistachio latte (iced) and then some food - nachoes, tomato soup and chickafil (business lunch deal) and a bbq burger. Amazing food great quality. We got some drinks after too - insanely good, best drinks in UAE! Dragon fruit mocktail and oreo milkshake! Highly suggest you pop in with friends or family!

The service was very very slow, they need more employees overall the food was good and drinks

We spent more than 3 hours without feeling the time running because of the nice environment, playing board games food is nice service is so professional. Will bring my friends / family & back for long playing time with everyone

First time visiting and surly not the last! I absolutely loved this place and will defiantly be recommending it to my friends

Nii was amazing and explained the games very clearly. He even recommended some fun games for us to try

Mocktails were refreshing

Thank you Nii! =)

Such a great concept, they have all sorts of games and the food here is great. Sooo many options for meals & drinks, so you’re entertained in all ways possible. I really enjoyed the avocado toast.
One of the best hangout ideas to do with your friends, so fun

Best place to have quality time and supper fun with kids, friends and loved ones.food and coffee are so yammy.board games are so fun and competitive

I decided to visit this restaurant due to my kids knocking on my head, so we did it finally. Once my son opener the door I was pleased. The decorations, wall design, Flooring, the shelves well organized (games by categories).

The kids ordered Turkish Breakfast, Tea and Deserts. Nothing new but worth it.

The restroom very clean, lovely smell as well.

The service took longtime to have our order but the staff very kind and professional.

We didn't have the chance to play anything as I was committed to something else, but definitely we will be back. Nice to try and recommended.

A very chill place to hangout and play games with your friends.they have all sorts of games with amazing hosts to explain how to play. 10/10 gonna go again.

Amazing idea of a coffee shop, the kids have great time and they can order the drinks they like.
Staff are friendly and the service is very good.
Prices can be dropped for big groups to encourage more people to visit, a thought for future development if you are interested.

We had our company team building event there, the support we got from the staff was enormous, they helped us arrange and organize everything in no time, the food was great, the games were amazing; the staff helped explaining the rules, they were there to make sure everything was perfect, and the service was amazing.highly recommended!

Great night with "friends trivia".
Good time we had, and the service was good, all friendly staff and food was good. Variety of drinks and different dishes. Definitely will go back again.

Visit with friends or family!
Reasonable and guaranteed that you will never be bored!
A good selection of games too!
Hot chocolate to die for
And other coffees as well

Really fun cafe experience! There were so many different board games we could play which was very fun! The food took a bit long to arrive though

Such a fun place, good collection of games and good food. Zee is very helpful and sweet and had excellent service

Amazing place to sit with friends and chill.
Food is good. Ambiance is great.

Zee was helping us with games. He is so amazinggggg and so good in explaining games.

I came here several times before, absolutely love the place and it’s vibe. Very cozy to chill at and play

A cool concept, however, it still lacks a lot of implementation. I have been to similar cafes in the US and Canada and there varities are endless.
One more thing I didnt like is they charge every player on the table by the hour rather than a table charge. I would suggest if this was revised. Paying 80 dirhams and hour per table for a 4 persons table is pretty expensive.

A lot of games, tasty food, nice staff. They have nice cake shop! Worth to visit and play with friends!

The service was great along with the food and drinks. The servers are willing to take their time to teach and suggest you games. My server was Jem and she made sure that the food was good and recommended me games.

Amazing value and amazing breakfast! I loved the built your Own breakfast I could finally get the exact breakfast I craved ……great idea for a group of friends with something for everyone!

Such friendly service and amazing value for money! The portion size was very generous

Will definitely be coming back!

Staff extremely wonderful. Enjoyed iced DNA coffee and sequence board games. I asked for my food for take away but forgot it there and left staff followed us all the way to hand it to us. It was a nice gesture. Definitely coming back to it.

BEST STAFF! They are all so sweet and fun and make the experience an absolute joy. They take the time to explain any games you don’t understand and their overall service was very professional & efficient. The place itself has such a great atmosphere with endless game options. Their food and drink selection was nice and the things we tried were all really good. Highly recommend.

Great Ambience for games and finger food!

They’ve got a room for private parties as well. Definitely a place to check out if you’re into board games.

Wide selection of board games too!

Our waiter was Max and she was the cutest person ever! She patiently guided us to how to play the game and she was really nice to us

If you wanna have fun and enjoy your time with friends and family this is the best cafe everr! I had so much fun with my friends and it was an excellent experience and am sure I will come again the waiter Harsha was so lovely and helpful?

The place is super fun and cozy, highly recommend when you’re a group of friends. Also, the staff there is the best I’ve ever seen! ️
Would definitely go again

The experience at the cafe was really great! Huge variety of delicious food and drinks available. The board games were fun to play, had a blast. Our server Harsha has accompanied us through everything, very good service.

The cafe is beautiful, the atmosphere is cozy and comfortable. The food and drinks are great! The grilled chicken quesadilla is a must try, as well as the DNA ice shaken cold coffee. There’s a huge variety of board games and card games to play from. The servers are really interactive and helpful with the requirements.

Nice decor but missing the vibes
Its a Boardgame cafe but you can still go chill & not play games
Menu is limited, food is average
Was empty when i visited during the day so its a calm place if you want to work or have a meeting
Parking is not available
Friendly staff

The food was really good and the staff is amazing too. Harsha was also a good one you should fine him he explains all games.

The food was amazing! I love this place so much, there are so many board games to choose from and the staff are so friendly! 10/10 recommend, not to mention the truffle risotto! Perfectly in the heart of Khalidiyah, its location from the beach is perfect! I love it

I liked it there as my first time I recommended it you won’t regret it at all take my word plus the coffee was amazing also the stuff is magnificent

This place has over 200 board games.so play eat drink and spend some wonderful time with friends and family. They have a little fairytale like cake shop in the board game cafe. The cake we had was so delicious and very artistic!

The experience was amazing, the service is the best thing ever a big thanks to Rovic, Isiah, Joseph, and Nicole for being the best servers I have ever encountered, the menu is very versatile, and the vibes in the cafe are jus immaculate.

I absolutely love this place, it's great for bonding and just having a quick fun time with friends. The playing prices are reasonable though the food is a little overpriced but it still tastes great! The staff are amazing and friendly, they can help you out with games you're not familiar with and give great recommendations to have the most fun!

The prices are per 1 hour/2 hours/ full day which you can decide once you start playing and extend if required (believe me, you will!)

They also have a small area for private bookings and celebration for up to 10 people with a minimum bill amount (Please check with them for the accurate info!)

P. S. Call beforehand as it tends to get full quickly!

احلا كوفي في بوظبي كلها. ودوم زحمه. انتظرنا ساعه بس يستاهل. الالعاب الي فيه تجنننن صدق تستمتع فيه. والاكل بعد لذيذ. السبانش لاتيه ولا غلطه.

This place is fantastic! The atmosphere is relaxed and calm, yet the staff is also really pleasant. They know what they're talking about and what they're doing, and you can see that making consumers happy is their first concern. The food is really delicious, with some interesting dishes and variations, and the prices are well worth it.

I came to the cafe with my friends the day after it opened and it was one of the best cafe's i have been to. Their food is much tastier than they advertise and the games selection only make the experience that much better.not to mention to the lovely staff and how superb the interior decorations are.cant wait to go back again <3

Literally can't get enough of this place! It's such a fun cafe to visit with friends and relatives. There's a wide range of board games to pick from, and the food is surely appetising. The game masters/waiters are really friendly and nice too! Love this place

Such a cool fun place and the food is amazing! They have so many board games to choose from and the food quality is 5 stars.

This cafe is so beautiful decorated, and has tons of board games to choose from! The environment was so lively, and the staff was wonderful. They charge you per person and by the hour, and after 2 hours you can do an all day pass. They have a menu for sweets, food, and drinks as well! They also have a cute cake shop inside! We got the molten lava cake, which was to die for.

Ambience is nice!
Games selection is good. Food is pricey but I would definitely go back again. Gaming price is well priced. Overall an amazing experience, will visit again.

DNA cafe is the perfect mix of comfort, luxury and fun! The menu is absolutely amazing, the staff is so friendly and professional.
I never write reviews but I want people to know that this is a gem in the UAE. You won't get this experience anywhere else.
If you're looking for delicious food and fun with your friends and family, DNA is the choice.

Love this place so much! Their coffee is so amazing honestly, this place is a must try for coffee lovers (so much to choose from in the menu) <3 the interior is so unique and aesthetic

The staff are all so nice and friendly:) Overall, the place is very comfortable and lovely, would definitely come back and bring some friends to play some board games as well!

This place is just amazinggg! They have all kind of boardgames, spent around 2 hrs and I didn’t even notice that time was passing.
The staff is so helpful & friendly and the food was great.
Layla (i guess she’s the owner) is so down to earth, (have a safe flight gorgeous).
You won’t regret visiting this cafe

We had a lovely time with Isiah, Melody and John! They are all so friendly! Great games and a wonderful time!

I was so excited to go since I LOVE boardgames and I go to similar places often but it i was really a huge disappointment.

Good things:
-Overall decor and food
-Great variety of boardgames

Bad things:
-We were SHOCKED to be charged 19 aed for an 1 hour for EACH player and 29 aed for 2 hours per player! This is separate from ordering food and drinks! Honestly sounds like a big joke and we will never go back again. I just don't get it there are other boardgame places that charge nothing for playing OR they charge minimum amount including drinks and food.
-Music was SO loud and distracting, not suitable for a boardgame cafe, we don't mind hearing other people playing their games but the music was on another level.
-The whole place smelled like fried oil because of the open kitchen, the smell really clinged to our clothes and we hd to wash everything when we went back home.

The place is so amazing, it has such a nice vibe and the staff are really friendly and kind! Playing board games for the whole day is very worth it, plus the food is really good. Would totally recommend <33

The board games cafe itself is very well-made. The environment is calm and friendly. My server was Mr. Isiah and he made sure that my friends and I were entertained and comfortable with our table. He's very professional with his job. The baristas Nee and Tohib made such good coffee and the truffle burger is one of the tastiest burger I've ever tasted. The variety of games is good for everyone, great job to Mr. Isiah for always making sure that we know the game and his suggestions are very fun to play with friends. Will definitely come back and book the VIP room.
