The shakes watered my crops and walked my dog.
Went there for a friends birthday, servers were very attentive and friendly, food was delicious, it wasnt as well ventilated but it was still a great place to hang out with friends.

First time to try a board game café and I really enjoyed it! The game coach was patient enough to explain rules of the games we played. Some games we did away with the actual rules and had a blast. Food wasn't really phenomenal but not bad either. Ordered a group meal and thought the onion rings actually tasted like calamari... which is unusually good! Hope they can have more variety on drinks though especially on coffee and dessert since it is a "café".
A good place to relieve your stress away. Price is reasonable. You can stay as long as you can. All of the staff are very warm and kind. Definitely will go back to play and eat more 😊
Awesome place to hang out with friends! The staff were super friendly. Food was also great! Plus, they also had a wide selection of board games to choose from!
A boardgame cafe with excellent food?? This place has it all! *screams* chicken teriyakii!!!
No extra charge for playing boardgames which is very considerate to customers who do not wish to play but would like to test their menu. Their staff are extra friendly too. I think i have a new favorite go-to taft cafe now ❤️
I have no problem with their food and service it was amazing. What killed my dining experience was their customers. The place is full of weaboos. They are shouting since they’re playing to the point I cannot even hear myself anymore.
Me and my friends decided to go to tabletaft just a few hours ago to have fun aaaaaand.. they didn't disappoint us. 😊 We enjoyed their boardgames. We had a lot of fun. The TableTaft peeps were so nice and friendly. Good customer service. We also love the starters and milkshakes that they've served us. It would never be a waste of time, money and effort to visit again Tabletaft. Tho of course, there are still some rooms for improvement, but I would still recommend the place to my other colleagues. Keep it up!
Good food with great friends. Nice ambiance and a friendly server. Perfect for barkadas and family. For your next foodtrip, try this on your list.
So this place has been my go to place when I want to hang out with friends. The staffs are accommodating and friendly, the food is good and there is a board game for every kind of person. They have a game master that could explain game clearly if you want to play a game you've never played before. The oversized cheese sticks are yuuummmm and most of their fries are good too. Expect noise, a lot of noise, because people are having fun, but you won't mind it when you're also playing.
Went here last week just to explore new places near our place. Experience here was awesome! But there are still room for improvements I know. Keep it up TableTaft!
It's my first time to try a board games café, and it didn't disappoint me.. from their games to their food! I tried the;
✔️ Taco Fries
✔️ Cheesy Beef Fries
✔️ Pesto Tinapa Pasta.
I super love all of it. I love the mix of their Taco toppings especially how it blended with the fries.. I love how the cheese really go with the beef also.. and the Pesto Tinapa Pasta was really really really good; I don't even know how to explain how good it was. Lols. And as for the board games.. it was really fun! My friend and I stayed there for SEVEN HOURS! As in from Lunch to Dinner. Hahahaha!! It was a really fun day, indeed.

Gusto ko yung food nila, lalo na yung Salsa Verde Fish Fillet Rice Bowl nila. Tama lang yung pricing ng food nila sa serving and quality. Yung staff mababait and magagalang naman. Bilib ako sa mga game coaches kasi sobrang tiyaga nila mag explain at magturo ng iba't-ibang games, lalo na pag madaming tao. So far lahat naman ng games na nalaro ko nagustuhan ko. Madami pa ako hindi na-try kasi ang dami nilang games! Ang gaganda pa ng quality and condition. Alagang alaga. Sa usapang accessibility naman, madali siya mahanap kasi nasa tabi lang ng Vito Cruz station (LRT1) yung location niya. Nasa loob pa ng University Mall kaya maayos, malinis, at ligtas yung area. Overall, lagi masaya ang experience ko sa TableTaft. Parang time machine, kasi paglabas mo ilang oras na agad ang lumipas, hindi mo mapapansin ang oras dahil siguradong magkakatuwaan kayo ng mga barkada mo. May ilan din na boardgame cafes sa Taft pero ang TableTaft ang pinaka acessible and pinaka homey ang feeling para sa akin. Siguradong babalik at babalik ako dito. :)
If board games and having fun with your friends is your thing, then TableTaft is the right place to go!
Food (⭐️⭐️) - I love their fries!
Price (⭐️⭐️⭐️) - I guess it's safe to say you'll get what you pay for.
Ambiance (⭐️⭐️⭐️) - I love how you just can play and make a lot of noise because hey you're here for the fun!
Should I visit again? - DEFINITELY YES! I am huge fan of food and board games 🌼
My sisters wanted to try a boardgame cafe and TableTaft was the nearest to my place. The place is quite small but since we visited on a Sat (lunch time), it wasn't that crowded.
You have to pay some sort of an entrance fee (P100/person) but it's consumable as long as you reach P150/person on food and drinks.
We spent over an hour playing random games. Although I've been to other boardgame cafes with a wider selection of games, theirs wasn't bad at all. And they have exploding kittens! (lels really like that game)
The food and drinks were quite good too. We were able to try their cheesy fries, onion rings, Oreo milkshake, and Iced Milo Mocha. I just hoped they served more choices for coffee and other beverages.
Overall, it's a great place to hangout and chill with family and friends.

It was our first time to visit TableTaft Boardgame Cafe and yes it was an enjoyable experience. Since you will have a nice ambiance of the place, affordable food and has an option to play a variety of boardgames. It is located second floor of the University Mall beside LRT Vito Cruz Station.
It opens every Monday to Wednesday - 11:00AM to 9:00PM and Thursday to Saturday - 11:00AM to 10:00PM. We really had fun playing different kinds of board games from the easy games, 2-4 hours play to the hardcore games, 8-12 hours game.
Upon entering, you will pay 100 pesos consumable fee and they will give you a baller with a number to keep track of the orders. They have an individual billing system for every customer, so if you're in a group it will be easy in splitting up payments for the bill.
The food was delicious. The menu has a lot of choices from pasta, appetizers, sandwiches, rice meals, desserts and milkshakes. We ordered Oversized Cheese Sticks for our appetizer since they don't have the Cheesy Beef Fries, Taco Fries and Jalapeño Poppers. The cheese was so addicting and it was a great match with the sour cream dip. It only costs 120 pesos. Thumbs up for the food! 👌🏻
We tried the Creamy Crispy Mushroom Pasta which costs 150pesos add 20 pesos for blue lemonade drink or 30 pesos for brewed ice tea. The penne pasta was creamy with crispy bacon on top. I'm a little bit dissappoited since the Meaty Bolognese was not available so we tried the Beef Salpicao Rice Bowl instead. It has a savory meat with a yummy sauce.

The dog bit me! Awww! Actually, it's one of the games we played when we attended the Grand Launch of Table Taft Board Game Cafe.
THE PLACE
Table Taft is located at the 2nd Floor of University Mall in Taft Avenue (Beside DLSU). I'm sure you will not ask how Table Taft arrived on its name. 😂 It's a board game cafe with almost a hundred boardgames you can choose and play.

THE SERVICE
The staff were attentive that day. The owner is very supportive with my request too. And I really enjoy the company of Team Kaladkarin playing with different boardgames.
#ilovetoeatph 😃❤️
I really appreciated the friendly staff, particularly the guy who taught us how to play the board games. (Sorry, Kuya, I forgot your name.) This is a great hangout place for people who are willing to put down their gadgets and actually socialize. I've been here twice and I would love to visit with friends again.

Was invited during the launch event of TableTaft and I was really excited to try out new games aside from my usual Snakes & Ladders, Monopoly, and all-time favorite Tong-its! 😂 And it's more than exciting to play games with fellow Kaladkarins!!!
I arrived a bit late but I still made it in time for some munches. First, they have given me a green baller with a number which serves as the indicator if you'll split the bill with your friends. You'd also need to pay Php100 for the game fee which is consumable. We're able to try some of their delicious food.
Onion Rings - Big-sized onion rings that's crispy and a little flaky, and then paired with flavorful dip.
Meaty Bolognese Pasta - "It's definitely more than just your typical birthday spaghetti" - I have to agree! I really like it that it's overflowing with sauce and cheese!
Beef Salpicao Rice bowl - kinda a hit-and-miss for me! It somehow lacks some punch of that garlicky taste of salpicao!
Buttered Garlic Chicken Rice bowl - This one's quite good and I liked the butter sauce! Not too overwhelming but maybe a little more flavor and saltiness will do, I guess?
Chicken Teriyaki Rice bowl - This one's my favorite from the rice bowls so far! The chicken itself is already good but the special teriyaki sauce is beyond glorious!!! This one's a perfect 5 for me!
Oreo Coffee Jelly - too sweet for my taste, but I like the experimentation here!
Apple Turon a la Mode - Not totally a fan of Apple pie so I only had a few of this. I like the one with chocolate syrup the most. The one with the caramel syrup was way too sweet for me!
Nai Cha Tea - Refreshing! Not too sweet as I thought it'd be!
We're able to play some exciting games like Tapple, Coup, Wits & Wagers, and the expanded edition of Exploding Kittens! I had fun playing games with my Kaladkarin friends and resident coach Niko is a good host!
Acoustics of the place is good, so you won't mind shouting and laughing out loud while inside the café.
Will surely go back here soon to try out more of the games they have here.
Within Taft University Mall is a student budget-friendly board game cafe called TableTaft. With a wide array of board games, TableTaft is a safe haven for students on break or need some time off from homework and studies. I had invited some of my La Salle friends to tag along on my invite, and we played a couple of card games over lunch. [Read More]

It was my first time to be inside University Mall, a go to mall by college students around the area for mostly dining. Each of its floors are filled with familiar brands but most of it are new concepts like TableTaft. It's your friendly stop for games while munching on good food and it's a fitting addition to an academic environment all around. Hey, there's always room for fun.
As you go in you get tagged via baller for billing identification and a minimal Php 100 consumable fee is required to access their wide range of board games. Most of these are imported and still in mint condition.
The owners are all recent student themselves, four from nearby DLSU and one Atenean. Another partner staff goes around and assist you on how to play. This dude memorized all the rules and is very passionate when explaining. Admirable!
The food offerings here are quite a spread. They have the usual starters like fries, onion rings and nachos. They have more filling ones too with their creamy and cheesy pastas and rice toppings led by favorite, tasty sweet, Chicken Teriyaki. They also served us well seasoned Salpicao and best selling Butter Chicken on this sponsored invite. They got of course desserts and long line of milkshakes to keep you playing longer.
For a memorable sugary journey, I suggest their Apple Pie Turon. It's crispy delicious on the outside and mushy fruity on its insides. It has an amazing contrast of textures. Another one I liked and their birthday cake for me was their Coffee Jelly with Oreo. Yuuum.
TableTaft beats other game board places I gone too for three simple reasons: affordability, friendly staff and a decent line up of food and beverages. See you?

Last saturday we had a fun filled afternoon playing board games at Table Taft Grand Launch. In support with our fellow foodie Denise Jestine Ang the Kaladkarin troop the home of green and white DLSU. Inside University Mall is Table Taft a boardgame place for students to hangout. University life have really evolve during my time what we had was computer shops and bilyaran to waste our time during long break. Now this is a great new addition boardgame place.
Taft Table incorporate an individual billing system. When you enter the place they'll give you a baller and you need to pay a consumable 100PHP fee. This is a great idea for students who usually split the bill. A great less hassle idea.
For the food they are around the range of 150PHP which was very cheap compared to other boardgame place that I've been to. My fave was the Jalapeño Poppers. Your old school cheesesticks with jalapeño for that extra punch. Love the spicyness of it but well balanced by the thousand island sauce.😊 Another fave of mine was the Meaty Bolognese Pasta. Got a sweet mild meaty flavor. For the creambased people they'll enjoy the Creamy Cripsy Mushroom pasta. They also got fries bowl of different variant. The Taco Fries and CheesyBeef Fries they are a great sides while playing some boardgame.
For the rice bowl we got to try Chicken Teriyaki, beef salpicao and buttered garlic chicken. My fave among the 3 was the Chicken Teriyaki. Love the flavor and the sauce pwedeng pang ulam. The serving was a bit the typical student type of servingsize meal. More of rice and less of the toppings. Thats why I recommend the Chicken Teriyaki thats the most sulit hehe. 😁
For dessert I love Apple Turon a la mode. At 1st I thought it was banana but after Jayson insisting that it was mashed apple that I realize that he was correct. It was yummy good. Oreo Coffee jelly was also good and for only 50PHP it was a steal.
Now for the fun part the boardgame. They've got quite an extensive choices of boardgame. From the easy party type of games to the hardcore 8-12hrs type of games. No worry Game Coach Nico is a friendly patient type of dude. He is well versed and the nice part he gave some background about the game for us to enjoy it more. We started of with Tsuro the game of path. Next was the fast paced domini like game and next into the deceiving bluffing game Coup. Last was the fave of all exploding kitten with expansion Imploding Kitten. Nice it was a fun fun afternoon. In between we also played some trivia game and the crazy heartattack Dog Game.😂
Overall this is a place that I wish I had during my college days. I can imagine myself spending my 8hrs break here in this place. For only a consumable 100PHP wow! Sulit!
We went here during their opening week so it was a bit crowded and noisy. The servers are nice and accommodating and take the time to explain the boardgame mechanics. They have a wide selection of boardgames available so there's one for everyone depending on the type you like to play. I'm not really a boardgame type of person but I found myself loosening up and having fun. One downside of the place is the noise, which makes it difficult to hear one another, so I wouldn't exactly recommend this place for meetings or discussion. I also didn't like the food, which would on its own be a bit overpriced, but if used as offset for the entrance fee of P100 would be pretty reasonably cheap already. Would recommend this place for students around the Taft area who are looking for a place to chill after finals or midterms or even Happy Thursdays (if you're not into the usual grind) since this is probably the one of the only few boardgame themed cafes around the area.

My friends and I went to Tabletaft last April 6 to de-stress and we weren't disappointed. Although tabletaft is like any other boardgame cafes out there, the place is spacious and there were a lot of games to choose from - there is also a "game master" who can teach you the basics of the game when you aren't familiar with it. You have to pay P100 entrance fee before you enter although it would be waived when you order a total amount of P150 and up which will be deducted to your bill. They also encourage individual billing and will provide ballers with numbers for it. The waiting time for the food is not really noticeable since we were occupied with playing. Taste-wise, their Buttered Garlic Chicken is amazing paired with Cheesy Beef Fries and Blue Lemonade and their shakes are bearable. If you are not a fan of chicken bones, don't order the Chicken Teriyaki but it tastes good. Overall, it was a great experience and we will definitely go back but I suggest them to have more games available.

One of the board game cafes around Taft hence the creative name, TableTaft offers plenty of board games ranging from complicated to casual. They can accommodate large groups so expect the place to be noisy every now and then but in a good way. They offer various food items which are affordable and goes well with whatever board game you're playing. Just make sure to avoid peak hours since this place can get filled up quite fast. So if you're looking for a great place to chill with something to distract yourself with around the area, this should be one of your go-to places.

Definitely one of the best places to play board games with friend. Be it during a break or a reunion of some sort. The place has plenty of games to choose from. The food is good I like their pasta.
For only Php 100, you can enter and start playing games with your friends. The entrance fee is waived when you order something greater than Php 100. We did enjoy playing the games. The food, drinks and desserts are affordable. I'm sure that I'll be coming back here.

Table Taft Boardgames Cafe.
I went to this place after lunch to meet my friends and to probably find a good dessert. It was very noisy and everybody seemed to be having fun. But this was a concern because the waiter taking our order couldn't hear what we were saying. We also were studying here for a test so the noise was a big disturbance. We stayed however because of the entrance fee of P100 which is consumable if you reach a minimum of P150 per individual billing. So for the P100 to be waived you have to consume at least P150 worth of their food. I had only ordered an Apple Turon a la Mode worth P50 because I already ate lunch when I met my 2 friends who ordered Beef Salpicao and (fried) Buttered Chicken both P150 each. They said the taste was very homey, strong, and that they would be going back to this place. :)
The dessert I ordered was very fulfilling. The cold ice cream and the hot banana mashed filling of the turn were great complements to my palette and satisfied my craving. Because of the policy I ordered a Grilled Chicken Caprese Sandwich for takeout worth P150 to exceed the minimum bill required to waive the P100 entrance fee.
A fun place for games, not so much discussion since you cannot understand what each other is saying most of the time. But despite that if we had the time and mood to play boardgames, we would come back to this place.
