Fun quirky local neighborhood coffee shop used by lots of students to study, somehow, despite the often awful blaring music. Not a place to relax, focus, or even be, sometimes, with the caterwauling "music." Good drinks, limited but tasty food. Haven't tried game night yet.

Great coffee and atmosphere. Game night is a blast. Lots of great people having a good time.

Quite the laid back hole in the wall place. Pretty good options for board games, but most of them are a little dilapidated or not so mainstream so it would take a little time to learn. Coffee was decent. Bathroom was somewhat in need of cleaning and soap. Otherwise, had a good time hanging out with friends and family!

Best drinks! Awesome vibe. Some nights a lot of people come in and play board games. During times like this, it gets loud and is not ideal for online work.

Stopped here on a Friday afternoon for a quick pick-me-up. I ordered the 'Bishop'; which is Thai tea with a shot of expresso and my friend had the lemonade and lavender 'Serenity', as I recall. I found the 'Bishop' somewhat intense, but I think that has more to do with my choice of beverage than any fault in the way it was made. The place has two levels, plus there is a game table right in the front window of the building. Lots of interesting art work on the walls and; although, I noticed some board games stacked about, the cafe' seemed to be occupied more with people studying than gaming. I do wish that these types of cafes could have areas specified for conversation, so that those wanting to talk need not be concerned with bothering people that are studying. Rook Cafe' also offers a few quick food items such as quiche, cookies and muffins as well as a few sandwiches. I thought this was a really interesting little cafe with a unique and well executed theme.
