Off the Wall Cafe

Off the Wall Cafe in Park Ridge combines a craft beverage counter with a growing board game library. Coffee takes centre stage, with drinks brewed from Dark Matter Coffee beans and teas sourced from local provider Tealula. Guests can pull games from the display shelf—titles range from classics like Catan and Pandemic to modern favourites—and check them out with a small refundable deposit. There is no cover charge; players simply return games with all pieces intact to reclaim their deposit. A rotating menu of natural wines, craft beers, modern cocktails and small plates is slated to complement the drinks, creating an inviting atmosphere for socializing or work sessions. With graffiti‑adorned walls and relaxed seating, the cafe encourages creativity and conversation while offering an approachable selection of board games for all ages.
