Is there a better way to get to know your significant other than over a Game of Life? Online gaming may be all the rage, but sometimes it\u2019s best to play the originals \u2013 board games. Ben Castanie and Aurelia Peynet first opened their doors in 2010 after moving to Canada from France. Their goal was to keep the fun of boardgames that helped their family bond. There may be no wifi, but you will be satisfied with their selection of over a thousand games and the social and friendly atmosphere with a crowd ranging from mid teens to seniors. The menu at this adorably entertaining caf\u00e9 ranges from quick coffee shop food to wine and salmon tartar. Take the dessert route and try their infamous Nutella Latte or homemade brownies. There is no time limit here so you can game until they kick you out at closing.<\/p>\n

SPiN Toronto <\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Get ready to whip out your paddles and take your table tennis skills to the next level at this crazy fun restaurant. Originally from New York, creator Ryan Fisher saw the need for some Ping-Pong in Toronto and was ready to bring his A-game. Why hit balls in the basement when you can join a tournament to show off your talent. Not the competitive type? That is cool too, book a private table for you and your friends to catch up and play around. Re-energize in between games with pretzel knots or hand cut fries. SPiN prides themselves in using local ingredients in their food. Get off your boring bar stool and get playing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
