Been here 2 times. Food was great the first time, then got back trying their Unlimited wings for 298 only (lunch). Who knew you can play board games while you eat.🌟
Been here a lot of times already with my large group of friends (staff already knew us lmao). This is our favorite barkada stop because obviously for their variety of games and flavored wings!!!
❣ Unli wings
❣ Unli rice
❣ Unli iced tea
❣ Unli mac & cheese
The staff were nice and accommodating, there are a lot of board games which is cool and their wings are delicious, esp. garlic parmesan. Will drop by again!
the wings was really good esp yung spicy siracha & they have A LOT of board games talaga kaso lang, mainit yung place ☹️
Always fun to eat here because of the free games. Their chicken wings are the best! Also try their brownie dessert it has ice cream on top. Staff is also very nice
More choices of flavors yung wings and sobrang sarap nya lalo na yung garlic parmesan and honey bbq. nabusong kami. Will definitely go back there!

The food was fantastic and not too oily. The sauce of the chicken wings wasn't overloaded unlike other wing places. The milkshake however, was somehow typical --- too many decors but the shake itself tastes 'okay.' Medyo kulang sa stuff but the overall service, ambience, and price for the food was worth pouring my money into this. 👌
[GOLD]
Food was ok. I ordered the Chix Wings (4x) (Honey BBQ) meal. It. They didn’t have mashed potato so I went with buttered vegetables. My wings tasted good! No too strong flavors. Although my friends didn’t like theirs that much.
We unexpectedly came and played here. The number of games was ok for the size of the restaurant.
Will try the Unlimited Wings next time! (not included in the Zomato Gold promo)
Their chicken wings are tasty and soft. They have lots of choices too and different sides to choose from. I like their stir fry veggies except the carrots on it. Love their board games too! Try the giant jenga!
Great place. Delicious food. The service was a little slow though. Definitely going back again. The food was so good it made me crave for it for daaaaysss.
Staffs are accommodating and friendly, especially the one who taught us the mechanics of some board games, he’s witty and he even joined us playing some cards. I just forgot to ask his name. You can ask them about recommended games and how to play it, they are approachable. Their food is good and sulit. The price is reasonable than other boardgame restos. Me and my friends enjoyed our experience in Cranium. 🙂
It was a really neat place to hang out and food were good!
I highly recommend their fish fillet, it’s a hefty serving that I have to share it with my partner!
The establishment was clean, servers are polite, and there is a wide array of games to choose from! Seriously, this os a worthwhile place to hang out!
This place is perfect for bonding with friends. They have a wide selection of board games and good food. The location was spacious with two separate areas for playing. I liked their chicken wings, but it still needs improvement to match those of other wings restaurants. The staff was okay, but I think the game master needs to be more approachable like the ones in Table Taft or Ludo.
A great place to visit with friends and spend time playing board games. The staffs are very friendly and accomodating. They will suggest games to play based on your preference. I ordered toasted marshmallow milkshake. It tastes soooooo goood. 😊
Isa to sa mga favorite naming kainan. Every week siguro, nandito kami kasi ang sarap balikbalikan. Sobrang malasa ng chicken unlike sa ibang unli wings na natry namin. Nakakaenjoy din yung mga board games, may mga board games kaming nadiscover dito then binili namin online. And lastly, sobrang kind ng owner. Kapag may board games kaming di alam laruin, ang dali niyang iapproach para magpaturo.
I’ve visited Cranium many times before but this is the first time I’ve used any promo when eating at their restaurant. Thanks to Zomato Gold I’ve saved more than half of the regular price! The waiters are very accommodating, the ambiance is very welcoming and the vibe of everyone is all fun. The food is of great quality and I most definitely love their Miloception! It’s not too sweet for a sweet tooth like me, it’s not something you’ll get tired of tasting! I love their presentation and I love how their food taste too! Will come back again and again :)
We always order the unli wings and baked mac cause its the best! So it’s our first time to order entrees. I’d say its very affordable price range 150-200 because it has huge servings, taste is so-so. Plus they have fun board games to play. Definitely going back here 😍
Great wings
Great atmosphere
Hope that you could lower the serving of mac and cheese so that customers could finish it and enjoy the wings also without having to force eat the big serving of mac and cheese.

Ambience: 5/5
The place is your typical boardgame cafe that is fully stocked with various types of boardgames. A great place to have a date or play with your friends. They also have a boardgame group which is called Troopers that is solely created for meeting and playing with other people. It has 2 areas and we stayed at the 2nd area which doesn't have the counter.
Menu: 5/5
Their menu has great selections. Ranging from chicken dishes to deserts, you can stay here for hours and you'd still have a lot to choose from after playing a few games. We ordered the Sriracha Ribs and Big Ol' Breaded Fish. I was supposed to order the unlimited wings but it was a bad idea since we arrived late so if you're planning to get that, I suggest going there 3 hours before closing time. Their deserts are good so you might want to try them out. They also have poutine fries which are amazing.
Service: 3/5
Tables weren't cleaned and the floor was slightly dirty. I was informed late that their wings was unavailable. Servers aren't attentive but there are moments that owners(?) or game masters that will help you in playing a new boardgame.
Taste: 4/5
I really quite enjoyed their Sriracha Ribs. It was the sauce that really made an impact to the dish. The ribs itself wasn't that flavorful but at least the meat was tender and falls of the bone. The Big Ol' Breaded Fish was underwhelming. The aioli sauce wasn't that good.
Value: 3/5
For what its worth, it wasn't a bang for the buck dish for me. The taste didn't match the price tag. I prefer paying that much and still receive a tasteful dish. The deserts are different though so you might want to go for that instead of having dinner here unless you're planning to get the unlimited wings.
Star Rating: 4 Star Rating
With a score of 20/25, 4 stars is an impressive feat. You won't get dissapointed with their selection of games and great snacks. I recommend this place for dates or when you just want to hang out with your friends.
Price point based on the taste of their foods are okay for me. The place have lots of customer even on sundays based on my visit today. They also have pleasant and attentive employees which is a big 👍.
Well accomodating naman although medyo mahina yung ac. The food is good pero yung ibang games nila medyo sira na and worn-out na. Sana maextend yung open hours nila.
The unli chicken wings were really good, better than any chicken wing I’ve tasted. The place is nice and you can never run out of board games to play here. Would definitely come back some time soon
It is my first time to visit a boardgame lounge/resto and I'm glad that I experienced it with Cranium. I love the way the staff handles their customers tho at that time the place was packed.
We ordered the unlimited wings promo that they have, my highly suggested flavors are Garlic Parmesand and Mango Habanero. If it was not for my preggy tummy I think I'd be devouring more than 2 sets of these wings.
I also appreciate that the game master approached us and suggested a couple of games that we can play. Hopefully next time we can try out more of the games as well as other food in their menu.
Only down side is the parking, its only for street side parking which we canmot guarantee that it would be safe.
This place is perfect for friends who want to hangout but don't want to spoil their wallets. The crew is very accommodating and nice. The food is super delicious!!
I really like the idea of this resto where you can dine and play at the same time. The resto has wide variety of board games (as in!). When it comes to their menu, we have tasted many because we ordered a group meal for 12. All the foods(wings, garlic parmesan fries, cheesy bacon fries, jojo mojos, breaded fish and nachos) are worth it! I just really didn't like the ventilation of the place. Kinda hot.
Food is good. Medyo masikip lang place good thing you can also occupy the space sa tapat nila. Madaming board games available though yung iba hindi masyado familiar. Good thing their personnel can assist you. Medyo mahina lang din signal since nasa baba sila, free wifi sana for customers.
A restaurant/cafe that offers instagrammable yet delectable desserts and has a variety of board/card/etc games to choose from, which you can use for free as long as you order anything from their menu.
For starters, we ordered their group meal that is good for 2pax, which consists of: 2 Half-pound Wings (Garlic Parmesan & Honey BBQ), choice of 4 rice or Smores Skillet, Garlic Parmesan fries, and a pitcher of iced tea. And added Rainbow Milkshake and Triple Chocolate Diabetus Milkshake! (while typing this review, I'm currently listening to "Starving" lol) Their wings are good down to bones, also their Smores is heavenly, fries are perfect, and the milkshakes overly satisfy my sweet tooth!
Wanting to come back soon to try their unlimited wings + mac & cheese promo!
![Zomato]( "Recensione")
Overall experience is great!
Food - The food is good, especially for its price. The wings are well seasoned. The mashed potato though is a little bit gummy on the outside, but it’s my fault for leaving it on open air for a long time (because we’re taking photos and playing games lol). My cousin really liked her wings and mac & cheese. Not much comment about the food but it was good!
Service - The staff is very accommodating. Our group of three has been pointing fingers to each other on who should first enter, and when one of the staff saw us, he opened the door for the three of us. The staff is very patient and you can’t see a hint in them showing that they’re tired of something even though there are quite a number of customers plus we’re all noisy because of the games lol. They even borrowed a game (Jenga) from a group of diners because Kuya saw us pointing at each other (again) on who should borrow the game from the previous players since they’re not using it anymore. They are very nice and accommodating!
Ambience - The place is a very fun place. It can be quite noisy though because of the excitement, probably, that the diners feel lol. The place is small, but they have two rooms (the other one is just across the room we’re in). My cousin and her friend told me that the other room was way moooore quiet so if you don’t like noisy and excited people (like us) then you can choose to go there instead (i’m not sure if that’s always the case though). The same, nice and friendly staff will assist you din.
Games - There are a lot of games, we were almost overwhelmed. Lol. Most games aren’t familiar to me because I don’t usually play but it’s worth trying! They also have a not there that if you’re trying a game that’s unfamiliar to you then you can always ask for assistance from their game master.
Food - 4/5
Service - 5/5
Ambience - 5/5
Price - 5/5
Overall - 3.6/5 (idk how to rate halves and stuff like that so it’s a 4 lol)
The foods are not so good (for me and my friends) but I love their gimmick of using board games to attract customers most especially the students or the so called millennials.
We celebrated our friend's birthday here. The place looks good, it was a plus that they have a second room to avoid overcrowding. We really loved the chicken wings! 😍 We will definitely be back!
Cranium is a quaint little place that serves good wings and offer good games.
They have limited seating though so you should plan your visit ahead.
We availed their promo of unlimited wings, rice, Mac and cheese, and iced tea for 318 which is absolutely worth it. Their wings are spectacular, my favorite was their mild spicy, sriracha, and soy garlic. Their mild spicy is a lot more spicier than their sriracha though. Their Mac and cheese was pretty okay. The iced tea was alright as well.
They have friendly staff and awesome game masters. They assisted us in playing games and having a nice time.
The only downside here is that there’s a stale smell of oil inside which means you will leave the place smelling like fried something. 😅
But 9/10 would come back again.
We went here primarily for the board games and to check the place ourselves. Ordered the group meal that is good for 3-4 persons and the flavor variants that we ordered are Honey Mustard and the Garlic Parmesan Wings. The Honey Mustard was good, we just didn't like it too much due to the sourness of the mustard but it was okay. The Garlic Parmesan is delicious, just the right amount of saltiness and taste. For the fries, it was good at first but due to the cold atmosphere of the place, our fries went cold and the taste changed a bit but still good. For the games we just played Jenga as we did not know the games that are displayed and we were just few when we came here. Anyway, good food and also good customer service, thumbs up also to the server who were humoring us while we waited for our orders. 4/5 ★
It was me and my boyfriend's first time going here yesterday and the whole experience was awesome! We went for the unli wings, macaroni, and iced tea.
Although the macaroni was a lil bland, we tried the wings with the star symbols and all of them were delicious!
We played Splendor, Monopoly Cards, and Rhino Hero (shout out to the guy who helped us understand the games, you did a good job!) All of them were fun however some cards weren't kept properly and seemed bent or faded.
But overall we'll come back here :)
The place is a Board game cafe but their food is really good too. I went several times with friends to play and one time i went with my brother just to eat. The ambiance is nice, they have a lot of games, and their staff were nice too.
During the time we went, they had a promo which is unli chicken wings; which i reaaally love. They didnt remove the good flavors in their unli wings choices :D
This is where we did our school task (which is to rate the resto/cafe and to interview the manager as well) and I am proud to say that I am your number 1 fan! What I love the most here is the chicken wings (oc) as well as the friendly staffs and the very accomodating manager. Hope to visit here again soon!
My sister and I each ordered the Chix Wings containing 4 pcs. of wings, a cup of rice, a side dish (we both chose mac n' cheese), and a glass of iced tea. The chicken was not very tender and juicy, but the honey bbq sauce pretty much made up for it. The mac n' cheese was also bland. The blondie skillet (butterscotch flavored brownie with vanilla ice cream) was good but too sweet for my preference. Still enjoyed the food nonetheless. Staff were very nice and accommodating.
Two things I love about this place is that it's very affordable and they have a wide assortment of board games.
Chicken is great, go for unli para max ang kain. Dry yung ribs for my preference. Great service. Sobrang linaw magpaliwanag ng game master sa games tsaka masipag pagguide sa amin. 5 stars para sa GM :)
We ordered their unli wings + unli mac and cheese + unli rice + unli iced tea. It was worth the price though! The crews were very responsive to our needs. We played Taboo, Dixit, Uno Stacko, Big Uno Card.
Cranium Board Game Lounge and Resto is the best place for barkadas looking for fun. It has a wide selections of board games.
When we went there we dont actually have any idea on what games should we try or play or how to even play it. But then there was a guy I think he was the owner and approached us and taught us how to play a specific game he is always open for inquiries which is very helpful for some of us which is not familiar with the games
The food. We ordered rice meals. Hamburg and Lechon Kawali and a Half-Pound Wings. I'm not satisfied with the hamburg. We didn't ate it immediately. The food was not that hot. But the thing is the hamburg was really hard to eat. Isn't tender at all and bit salty. But the rest was superb. As well as their iced tea.
Service was great. And we will for sure comeback maybe try another dishes such as snacks which is perfect when playing board games.
Ambiance and the place is good.
Maganda yung lugar! =) kaso tago, nasa basement. Buti nlang nagtanong kme ng friends ko =) Daming pagpipilian na board games. Masarap nman yung pagkaen, kaso yung chicken nila, masyado matigas. Di ko naenjoy yung chicken. Pero yung shake masarap nman. :)
We had the unli chicken wings with mac n cheese, rice and iced tea. The service is pretty fast when you ask for a new set of wings and they are very accommodating. We did not really know how to play the board games so we asked the game master to recommend a game and teach us. It was pretty fun.
If your barkada wants to eat and play then this place is the perfect one for you!
They offer unlimited chicken wings with different flavors, cheesy macaroni, rice and iced tea for a very cheap price.
Food: 8/10
Ambiance: 7/10
Service: 10/10
Games: 10/10
For the food, I actually don't know what flavors I'm eating and it actually depends on your preference.
But girl, their service is what I like and look for a place tho. Their game master is so funny while he's teaching us the game we wanna play. And they always assure that we will never go hungry while playing and always asks if we ever need something.
The place is aesthetically good for a board lounge. But once you have some other group with the room, it's a bit noisy because you know everyone's having fun.
Overall, sulit!!! 💛
Went here for the second time and it was worth it. The staffs are nice, approachable and they have the initiative to help us in choosing a board game to play. The food tastes good as well. We will definitely go back here. :)
They offer unli wings for 328 pesos until Dec 2017 if I'm not mistaken. The 328 pesos is also inclusive of unli iced tea, unli rice and unli mac n cheese. For the flavor of the wings, I highly suggest soy korean and honey bbq. I also love this place because of the board games! The staff is nice but it can also be hot if there are a lot of people. They make you everything you want in the beginning so you can order like 3 orders of this flavor. One order = 4 pcs of chicken 👍
The food is great and the staff are nice and friendly! They even taught us how to play a specific boardgame :D but they don't have the nomion rings available so it's a bummer. I really am looking forward to it on our way there but overall i enjoyed it still.
I told you guys, I crave for wings and boardgames. I visited Cranium because of their Unli Wings promo. On our first visit, I really enjoyed the food and the games though on our second visit, I wasn't that satisfied unlike the first.
Food (⭐️⭐️) - Well, I went here for the wings and I'd say it was okay. Some wings are overly coated with the sauce while the others is not properly garnished. I love their Mac and Cheese even though it's a bit saucy.
Price (⭐️⭐️⭐️) - 328 bucks for unlimited wings, rice,Mac and cheese, iced tea and boardgames is not that bad.
Place (⭐️) - They really have a small space and it is usually crowded.
Should I visit again? Maybe not.
One of the best places to chill. Can play unlimited board and card games while sipping your favorite frappe, milkshake or other kind of refreshing drinks. 😁😊☺
Had a great time here. Tried their unlimited wings and they didn't disappoint! I liked their soy korean and the spicy wings. A great bang for you buck kind of deal for me. I lost count of how many wings I ate haha. The game master was also approachable and I learned a new game here which was awesome! Oh and their fries were also top notch!
Two of my friends and I went there one Sunday to try their promo of unli servings of chicken wings, mac & cheese, rice, and iced tea. In addition, we also ordered milkshakes and their cheesy bacon fries. We had our minds set on the game boards as well.
The ambiance was good and clean, including the washroom. They had two separate areas to dine.
The chicken wings are good, much better than another restaurant I had been that offer unli wings as well. I liked best the spicy sriracha and the mild hot buffalo wings. We had if I'm not mistaken 4 rounds!
We didn't like the mac and cheese though. It was bland and lacks the "cheesy flavor" that I was expecting. We only had one serving of it.
The milkshakes and fries are ok, not extra ordinary.
We enjoyed a lot the board game that we played called "explosive kittens" that the owner personally taught us. It's a game of strategy, we didn't notice that we've been playing for more than 2 hours already.
We usually stay at Ludo for food and boardgames but we decided to try this place out because of their unli wings, unli mac and cheese and unli ice tea. Their prices are cheaper and they have fewer collection of games. We still had a lot of fun playing. Their wings was so good but their mac and cheese isn't as exciting. We also met fellow board game enthusiasts. they played two games with us, one is stone age and the other is AGot. They meet every wednesday and they offer 10% off if you play a game with them. They are so nice! will surely come and stay again. if you dont want to buy food and just want to play a game, you can just pay 50 pesos.
We. Had. A. Blast. Period.
A great place to hangout with people you love. A great place to share good food you love. The experience was so amazing that I had to write a review for the first time despite having this app for such a long time.
Thank you, Cranium, for making our night fun!
Good place. Kind staff and game master. Mag introduce talaga yung gm ng game na bagay for you and your friends. All of them are very accommodating. Food was nice, too ♥
Chicken wings were no doubt excellent. Best time to go I think is around 8-11pm on weekdays. The serving of wings were kinda slow in the beginning since there were lots of people but once the crowd lessen, service was great and really fast. Waiter were really friendly and accomodating. Playing board game were lots of fun too especially when you're with your friends. Just a tip, when you dine in for unli wings try to order as much as you can on the first order so you will not be deprive for a long time lol. Two thumbs up! 🤤❤️❤️
My favorite spot because of how cozy it is, and the staff are very nice, it feels like home! The food is pricey but worth it, especially if you're staying for hours to play games.
Good and affordable food 1pt
Service 1pt
Board games selection 1pt
Ambience and Location 1pt
I like their chicken wings, serving is justifiable by price. The Frozen Dalandan is a bit pricey
Location: 99% chance you'll miss it if you're just passing by. Didn't see any signs or posters outside that says "Cranium." Took us about 10 minutes to find the place.
Food: Yummy! I suggest you order their group meals, so you can also try their appetizers. And their brownie skillet is too good. ❤️
Games: There were tons of games. But we only played Cards AH, Lumberjack, Monkey thing, Mini football table, and Eureka. And all of them were fun.
Staff: 5 stars, very accommodating. Helped us with the games, and attended to our every need
Reasonable price, kind staff, huge variety of games, and good food. Would recommend this as a hang out place for students like me. The place is always packed so get ready to wait before being seated.

Hearing about this place is probably one of the reasons that you'll end up here and being able to stumble upon this place has a 50/50 probability since it's location is kind of a blink and you'll miss it spot. But anyways, if you're tired of simply just chilling in cafes around Taft, board game cafes are now up and about around so if you're into these kinds of places, then you'd really wanna try this. Prices may seem a bit steep but very well worth it, just make sure that you're ordering something that you're curious about. Board game selections are plentiful so if you're a big group, make sure to avoid peak hours since space is not that adequate. With that said, this is one of the many unique places around the area that you should go and have a look at, at least once or twice.

Wow that milkshake had so many things going on! Eyecandy! When we were done eating, we were quickly approached by a well mannered man who offered us games and taught Pat and I to play Exploding Kittens and Ugly Dolls--what brutal names 😭 but they were fin and quick! We had a wonderful more than hour chill stay here. Check the House Rules and picture and prices of millshake in the photos below. 😉✨

Board games cafe has been a trend to offer services to customers who want to kill time by playing games. It was my first time to try a board game cafe because most of the said cafes are located in QC (and I am from Cavite, still quite far from BF Par, if you know what I mean) Gladly, a recently opened cafe nicknamed "Cranium" is located near our school so we decided to try it there. The staff is SOOOO nice. They even gave us free waffle since it was my friend's birthday. They also sang happy birthday for her. So funny because everyone in the cafe also sang (yup! the students/customers sang! hahahaha) The game master is also kind :)
I had their toasted mallows to drink, it was good! For me, it was worth it. We also ordered their nachos to kill the sweetness in our mouths. Thanks to their generous cheese! My friend had their chicken wings which was also good and worth it for the price since it is served with iced tea (though kinda bland) and some mac and cheese (which were good!!! sorry I forgot to take a photo)
Overall, the experience was really nice. I like their service. The place is just kinda small so if you want to try it here, you should go early or on the dead hours hahaha. Would definitely come back! Want to try their smores and chicken wings again :P

Went here today with my friend and it makes me feel like a kid again. We ordered Oreo Cookie Monster,Reeses Peanut Butter,Potato Ham and Cheese Croquette and Mini Octopus hotdogs. Nice presentation though. I find it cute. The game master was there and he's very approachable. He suggested different kinds of games that we're not that familiar and I was like "Wow, I didnt know that kind of game exist" because I only knew few board games. Well, it's a good place to enjoy and explore. Had a great experience in this place so stop by and have fun! Will definitely go back soon! 💓
Take me back!!! 💓 #craniumtaft
