Checkmate Games and Hobbies, Toledo OH

Wide selection, friendly staff and an easily accessible second room for actually playing the games with people!

Great selection of unique board games, and a dedicated space for tournaments, training, gathering.

Store was a little overwhelming to walk into at first. But the staff are some of the friendliest people I've ever met. This was my first time at the store and everyone was helpful, respectful and kind.

Relaxed and casual environment. Good selection of board games but not a great selection for card games.

Friendly clerks, helpful and knowledgeable without being overbearing. Large selection. Big fan.

Great place, my family and I make the trip to Toledo at least once a month to see what's new on shelves.

Shoutout to Caleb! Great experience the past couple of times I've gone in. Really attentive to customers even while handling multiple at once.

Great place to play Magic, D&D, etc. They offer a decent selection of gaming products. Staff is generally knowledgeable about game merchandise and they offer several organized play events.

Addendum: I sold them a bunch of Magic cards I'm not using anymore, and now their display case looks fancy.

Really enjoyed this little gem of a store. They have days that they teach you how to play different card games. Really nice and knowledgeable workers.

Not into minis but I used to be. Stopped in waiting for a table at domos. Really awesome place really awesome staff. People actively using the gaming tables. I'll be back with my son who loves this stuff.

Found just what I was looking for, for my daughter! Friendly & helpful staff, games, chess (of course, with the name 'Checkmate'), puzzles, minatures & paint, cards, dice, & more. Lots more! Love how they will teach you how to play a game before you buy it. Also there are gently used games & puzzles at a discounted price. Overall a great gaming & family friendly store!

I stopped in with my 3 and 5 year old boys and the staff was super friendly. They let them dig through the boxes of heroclix characters and find their favorite ones. Super fun experience for the kids and tons of gaming stuff on the shelves to buy.

Great store, friendly staff with quick and easy service. Players here are always nice too, and they keep the place as family-friendly as possible!

Friendly staff with a great selection of new and vintage games. They had some titles I’ve never heard or scene before. Will definitely stop by again next time I’m in town.
