I've been going to the store for about 4 years or so and I can't say enough about how amazing the people are there! It changed ownership in the passed year-ish, but the spirit hasnt changed. June and Hewitt have kept an inclusive and respectful environment and welcome everyone of all play and social levels. As an homage to its name; whenever you go there, it always feels like you're returning home. Cannot recommend this place enough!

Clean store, friendly and honest owner, good communication about events, and a welcoming local community. Bonus points for the beautiful view of the river from some of the tables.
First stop in to this lovely shop on my trip to the Boston area. It was great, though I'm disappointed I couldn't bring any of my decks as they have a ton of events for folks to participate in (looking at their calendar anyway). As a consolation prize I did get to look through their well organized and prolific singles selection. The coolest thing about my experience, however, was eavesdropping on the owner (I'm pretty sure) while she taught some other young women how to play Magic: the Gathering. I often feel privileged as a cisgender, white male when I walk into other comic/game shops. Typically my experience is pretty great, whereas others' experiences may vary (especially those of my girlfriend and daughter). I'm not sure if it's amazing or sad to say I recognized just how special this store was in seeing how welcome EVERYONE was, when often in stores like this that's not the case. I love my hobbies, and I love when more folks get into the same or similar hobbies because then there's just more fun to go around, and I'm glad to see this store working so hard to make it a welcoming and safe environment. Solid 5 Stars, would bring my daughter!
