Definitely a place to check out! Has 2 locations next to each other, some awesome board games :)
Good selection of most recent games. Wide variety.
Great comic shop. Helpful and friendly staff.
Great store, awesome selection of board games and minis. Parking can be a hastle
Awesome thank you my friend and be safe
I have always been a huge fan of phantom of the attic games shop. Great staff, wide variety of gaming products and great games of warhammer 40k I have played there. I highly recommend going here.
Great place for Reaper Miniatures. Bought a bunch when I was last there. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
Longstanding regular customer from out of town (Germany) for the last 26 years. Great place for new games, used games, playing games or having a nice chit-chat with the proprietor or other patrons. Top-notch! Iam always looking forward to seeing the Phantom when I am in Pittsburgh.
Cool spot for RPG, CCG, table top, and board games along with dice, miniatures, and books. The knowledgeable staff can direct you to any gaming need you have. There are fewer and fewer shops like this and if games and small businesses are important to you, this is the place to visit.
This place is a little hard to find but if youre looking for anything related to board games this is the place to shop! I mainly come here for their huge selection of Table Top RPG miniatures and painting supplies, but they also have a wide selection of dice sets in all sorts of colors. Come down on Sundays when parking is free!
Its always a good time at the Phantom.
A great place to buy games.
They have everything you need for RPGs, including a play room. They have good board games too.
The smaller urban space and broad range of interests covered necessitates a thoughtful selection, so, they might not always have every unusual figure or supplement you need on hand. However, they make up for this with fast turnaround on special orders. Out-of-this-world customer service and a welcoming, inclusive space for open table games makes it a business worth supporting.
Friendly, helpful, reasonable prices.
Top notch store with loads of stock and VERY kind and friendly employees. If we lived closer, we would be here more often. Every time we come into the city, we make a special stop here to visit and also their comic book store across the street. We are always happy with the selection and have a nice chat while there. We have also gotten good deals on clearance items as well. We will continue to come back and shop here when we have the opportunity.
Great selection on dice, singles and sets. They go above and beyond there to find you what you’re looking for, and all in all it is one of the nicest gaming stores I’ve ever been to, with some of the nicest employees. Worth braving Oakland for!
Phantom of the Attic is the one of the best hobby and tabletop game stores in the city. The staff is always quick to make suggestions or help you find something. They can order an item if they dont have it. Its fun stopping in regularly to check what interesting used RPG items theyve got in since the last time. Phantom also hosts Magic: the Gathering, Dungeon Crawl Classics, and Dungeons & Dragons events.
Every Phantom of the Attic location is great. The staff is always knowledgeable and friendly. They dont talk down to you and seem to really enjoy the conversations of like minded individuals. Not your typical nerd shop that talks down to you and makes you feel inferior because you misspoke and dont know something. If only they would open a vintage video game store....
The people here are so friendly and easy to talk to! They also have a great selection of items. Absolute wonderful place! Definitely one of my favorite stores!💜
The BEST game store in Pittsburgh. Games of all sorts and types. Very friendly and helpful staff. If interested in games this is the place for you. Huge game table available. Live gaming often on Saturdays.
Very helpful! They genuinely care about your gaming experience and will guide you to other sources if they dont have what you need. They know what theyre talking about and it shows.
Great first time experience as a board gaming novice. Shop was tidy and clean, and everyone there was really easy to talk to! They were very passionate about games & recommendations. Will definitely be back!
Great little game shop with a wide variety of items. I go there for Friday Night Magic (MTG); they organize the drafts very well, and the players that attend are friendly and very welcoming to newer players.
A small shop, but one with excellent selection. The staff is friendly and quite open. Whether one needs help finding something, or has more general questions to be answered they are quick to oblige.The back room is dedicated to miniatures, mostly of the Warhammer variety, and has a good-sized table open to play on. I went there for beginners necessities and was quickly directed to supplies I would need, without any attempt to upsell me into extras, and given solid recommendations on specific glue, paints, etc. that have proven themselves very accurate.
Nice game shop with good selection of boardgames, role playing games, CCGs and miniatures. Staff and friendly and helpful. Parking is a little more challenging because of the neighborhood, but its great for people who live or work in Oakland. They also have game demo days but I actually havent attended one of those.
They got it all.RPG books, board games, trading cards, miniatures, paints. And if its in their wheelhouse theyll totally try to get it for you. Super friendly staff, totally care about their customers.Im talking about the games store.Theres a second location across the street that sells comics which is also totally rad. I got some Conan graphic novels there that are *dope*.
Awesome store for games, rpgs, dice, and miniatures. Everyone on staff is always happy to help with questions and ordering special items. Cant say enough good stuff about this place!
This was a really really neat place. My hubbys inner nerd had a field day! We bought several games here during our stay in the area. Everyone was super friendly too!
Kind and welcoming staff. While small in size, the place is very well stocked. They also host numerous tabletop events weekly.
This is such an awesome game store to come to. Its easily worth the walk (or bus ride) from north Oakland, and the workers are both knowledgeable and friendly. They have a great selection of board games and miniatures within the store, but in addition to their selection of products, are more than willing to place an order for you if necessary. I plan to continue frequenting this store until I graduate.
My first time at the Phantom of the Attic, I was blown away with all the games, books, figurines and maps. While I was there a couple game started and of course stayed a few hours to watch. The staff were nice. If you cant find what youre looking for theyll order it. Even help you and call you if it comes available.
Great place with friendly staff. Just got started in painting miniatures and they have the full selection of Games Worshop paints,miniatures and supplies.
Great local game store. Always getting the newest titles and if he doesnt have it, he will get it for you.
Knowledgeable, friendly staff. Small space, but packed full of board games, card games, role playing games, and miniatures. If they dont have what you are looking for, they can get it for you
Fantastic local gaming store! They have so much knowledge about their product and are great about special orders. Incredibly helpful and friendly.
Consistently friendly staff members who are always willing to help you find what youre looking for.
Great LGS for magic players. Prize support is aimed more at a less competitive environment. If youre looking for a fun and casual spot to play some cards in the Oakland area, this is your spot. Id love to see a little more support for competitive play. But all in all its a solid experience. Two thumbs up.
Great selection of board games and the most Reaper minis I have seen at one place. Great service. Finally found Race for the Galaxy!
Nice game shop with a small selection of used games.
Overall, an excellent game store. It has a good selection of board games, RPGs, minis, and cards, hosts many open gaming events, and has friendly staff.
Excellent atmosphere with a great selection and awsome staff. Would certainly recommend to anyone and everyone!
Great store and selection. Guy working there was very helpful and friendly
Great games (table games, not video games!) store! Great selection of games, books, and pieces! Good prices, the guy working the desk was nice and helpful, definitely check it out if your looking for a place to get your gaming fix.
Easy to find. Always has a good selection
The staff was helpful and the store had plenty of choices. The prices are about what you should expect from a store vs. online.
Awesome selection of card and board games, die of all colors, card sleeves, varieties of magic card bundles, 40k figurines and more. The staff are friendly and helpful and host events weekly or more often.
Great selection of games and tabletop miniatures. Staff is friendly from my experience. I try to support local businesses but the games I was after were very pricey compared to Amazon, even with a sale.
I came here looking to get into something completely new to me, and the staff were super helpful at every step of the way. Their selection is amazing, as is the atmosphere.
Phantom has a few things going for it that makes it a great destination for gaming. Speaking as a Warhammer 40k player and tabletop RPG collector, their selection is really, really good. The amount of obscure, old, and specialist tabletop games is awesome to a collector like me, and they do a really good job of keeping hard to get 40k stuff in stock.
Wonderful staff! They always have good suggestions for games new, old, and coming soon. What they dont have on hand they can get for you asap.
Phantom of the Attic has been feeding my tabletop hobby addictions for the last 20 years. Tabletop RPGs, CCGs or miniature wargames, Phantom has always been my go-to place. Anything that they dont have in stock, they are always happy to order. If what you are looking for is out of print, their used section is extensive and always rotating. Speaking of, they also give good prices for buying your old stuff. That said, the staff is actually their best asset. They are super friendly, knowledgeable and helpful.
Extremely helpful staff and they will remember you and your tastes in games too!!But I have to say if your hours say say open until 7pm stay open until 7pm.
A wonderful selection of great games, very knowledgeable and friendly staff who are willing to go the extra mile for their customers. A great environment to play games in as well.
+Passionate, knowledgeable staff+One of the only game stores in the city+Public gaming space-Small selection, due to small location-Steep prices-Hard to find parking
Amazing selection for the Warhammer 40k stuff and loads of dice. The staff was very helpful and enjoyed talking about the products.
Jeff and the rest of the crew are always helpful and friendly. The site hosts multiple game nights and features a good selection of board games, RPGs, and the most popular minis games.
This was literally the 1st place I ever went in Pittsburgh, and it is still one of my favorite places. Great staff, great games, and they always go above and beyond.
Always friendly and helpful. Best comic book store ever.
Great selection of board games, including some recently released from kickstarters - the owner really keeps up with whats worth stocking. Knowledgeable and friendly.
The selection of games and minis is amazing. Friendly staff with lots of knowledge and experience.
LGS, good mini selection, holds FNM drafts mostly. No chairs or bathroom.
Great local game shop with friendly, knowledgeable staff! Board games, RPGs, CCGs, miniatures, wargames...
The staff really know their stuff. Great selection of board games, RPGs, Warhammer figures, etc. We make sure to go a couple times a year and buy something every time we go.
Excellent establishment. The owner was knowledgeable and helpful. I learned about tons of games I need to play!
Large selection of newly released games, making it my go to shop (despite a considerable mark-up from online prices)
Nicest people Ive met in the MTG world.
Very nice helped me find exactly what I was looking for.
Great game store. Go there now and buy all the games!
If they dont have it they will get it for you. Highly recommended.
Friendly and helpful staff, good selection of games, and convenient Oakland location
Great little game store, small but a lot of Evil Hat games and great mini battle events, as well as Magic. WOTC FLGS so early releases of D&D and Magic
Great place for table top gamers.
Helpful, courteous and enjoyable atmosphere.
Not much game space, but good selection of games and RPGs.
Best FLGS around.
Very friendly, very knowledgeable.
I played MTG here for many times, very friendly staff and players!
No single cards for sale. Standing room only.
Old school game store through and through
