Marche Board Game Cafe

It's a fantastic standard of board game cafe with a huge selection of games for all skill levels. There's cooperative, competitive, and even solo games that can be played.

It's possibly a bit pricier than other cafes on paper, but you get a free drink from the menu, and they have a really nice selection of stuff, so it balances out.

The food is also different from what is found in board game cafes, which adds extra enjoyment to visiting Marche. I usually go for the popcorn chicken and the pork belly rice, both of which are very well done and super flavourful with excellent value for money.

The staff ate great, super helpful and will explain how to play any games you are interested in, particular shout out to Luke who always recognised us and would reserve our favourite spot in the place to play games on a Wednesday night!

If you're new to games or experienced, it's a great spot on the board game and food front.

My friends and I visited this venue and booked a private karaoke room for a joint birthday party. We had so much fun and the rooms were well presented, with a vast selection of songs and option for more through YouTube. We had a small incident happen with the standing mic that resulted in an injury to my friend, but one of the employees (I think her name was Ana or Anna?) was so diligent in dealing with the situation and just gave the most amazing service and was super kind to all of us. The owner Ares as well called me back immediately the next day, and was also so empathetic and compassionate, and was just all around lovely to speak to. He immediately checked on all the microphones in each room for safety, and I was just super impressed by how he dealt with everything. We are most excited to come back to enjoy another karaoke session in the future - highly recommend!! 💕

Really yummy dumplings! Had lots of fun playing silly games! Hot chocolate was great too! ✨

Only been here for board games.

👍huge library of board game and most of them well kept with rule book and no missing piece.
👍food is pretty good quality, good selection and reasonable price
👍staff is very helpful with the board game suggestions and menu order

👎price is per person starts at $18. So if you have a group of 4 who plays quite often, better to collectively buy a board game and play at home

If you are looking for a fun and cozy place to hang out with your friends, look no further than Marche! This boardgames cafe has a huge collection of games to suit every taste and skill level. The staff are friendly and helpful, and they can recommend games based on your preferences and teach you the rules if you are new to them.

Marche also has karaoke rooms where you can sing your heart out to your favorite tunes. The sound system is great, the song selection is diverse, and the rooms are spacious and comfortable. You can also order drinks and snacks from the cafe to enjoy while you play and sing.

Marche is a place where you can have a blast with your friends and discover new games and songs. It is definitely one of the best boardgames cafes in town, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a good time. 🎲🎤👏

$30 per person 2 - 6pm karaoke
Include a drink.

👍Best non-alcohol karaoke venue. Kids and teens friendly. Clean and friendly staff. Quality sound system.
Karaoke room with stand up mic and stage. We came with a group of 13 with half being teens. We had loads of fun. The karaoke systems has a variety of songs from around the world (Canton, Mandarine,Japanese, Thai, etc) The system is easy to use and the room is spacious.

👎The table in the room could be smaller so getting in and out of the room with big group would be easier.

If we go again with teens, we will split into two rooms so adults and teens can have more singing time!

Overall a good experience for family with teens and even kids.

Nice place for gathering with buddies. Love the drinks and food✨recommended: for the board game section, they got a lot of variety. For the first attempt, it’s a bit lost for the game. I wish that staffs can introduce the famous game for the customers and and give a guideline. It definitely helps customers into board games vibe☺☺☺

Such a nice venue! Convenient location and has a buzzing atmosphere. Extensive drinks menu and a Taiwanese inspired food menu. Popcorn chicken bao was yum. Ordered the green milk tea which I probably won’t order again though. Karaoke rooms are spacious and clean. Friendly staff.

Great place to stop by and try new board games with friends! The staff there have a good idea of how to play the games so can give you a quick run down if the rules start getting too complicated. Tasty and easy finger food is available while you play. The karaoke booths are also great!

A great place to play board games with friends. Food is decent but is a bit pricey. Sucks when people don't leave during their allocated booking. We arrived 10 minutes early but ended up starting 15 minutes past our booking.

Great vibe, friendly atmosphere, lots of tables of people enjoying board games! Lots of non alcoholic drinks on offer and a great mix of longer strategy games and shorter card/party games.

📝: Board game or Karaoke night for this weekend? Love @marcheboardgame for their amazing range of boardgames to okay and @kboxmelbourne for their fun list of songs to sing. The perfect place to hang this weekend.

❤: I’ve always loved the Taiwanese food here since I first got to try during lockdown last year. From rice bowls with minced pork and Taiwanese sausage to snacks like crispy chicken and fried tofu, you just can’t stop indulging.

A great place to go to with your friends to spend time together. All of the staff are really nice and they have a wide selection of board games and card games. They have a few option with drinks and food that are great to eat and drink. Highly would recommend to go to with your friends.

I went here for karaoke and not for board games so cannot comment on the board games. However, I loved the karaoke aspect of this cafe, the individual rooms are spacious and clean, and a nice atmosphere with some lights and plenty of microphones (even one big one on the stage for someone to shine), the toilets were pretty clean too. There was a wide selection of songs to choose from, including different languages of songs too! The graphics of the videos sometimes did not match the actual music video of the song and was a poor quality (not HD) but the sound quality was good and sound is the most important factor.

Moving onto the food, I had the popcorn chicken with rice, which I highly recommend, it had a lot of flavour and was delicious. The popcorn chicken was crunchy, and all the flavours balanced well with the egg and spinach. However, be aware there are chunks of fatty pork in the rice when you order if you are not a fan of this. They also have a wide variety of drinks to choose from. I had the plain milk tea which was delicious, had a strong tea flavour, very sweet and refreshing. Overall, the experience was great for the price and would come again for karaoke and even try the board games aspect of the cafe! Service was great too!

Great cafe. Drinks are delicious and good game choice.
Staff are really friendly and happy to help and recommend games. Really nice that they take that extra time to explain games :)

The boardgames and karaoke are really great and definitely priced well. But if you haven't tried the food yet, I would definitely recommend it! It's so surprisingly delicious. The Taiwanese popcorn chicken is so so so tasty!!!

We joined as a D&D group and the staff were immensely helpful. They even gave us dice and dice towers, battle maps and props, and various other things as we played. WITHOUT US ASKING.
That showed how AWESOME they are! We'll definitely come again!
(When we can agree on the time, that is...)

Atmosphere here is always great, laughter and smiles at every table. The board game selection is great and the staff are all very knowledgeable and eager to help. Milkshakes are a must try and the food is delicious!!

Thank you to the team today (31/10/23) for being so helpful with our game of Mysterium and for the great recommendations of future games to try! Can’t wait to visit again!!

Awesome place for board games and food. Booked for a college dinner. Played games like codenames, spot it etc. Its usually a bit crowded in the evenings. Better book before.we booked for around 3 hours. The fare is average. Good food and service

It’s good deal for money. $20 per person for 3 hours comes with a drink + access to all their games. They organised the games in a way that is easy to access: games for 2, party games, classic games etc. The staff were also helpful and knowledgeable about the games we were looking to play. I’d recommend the cafe to couples, groups, families!
