Colorado Springs' Favorite Gaming Café & Coffee Shop

About Dungeons & Javas

Dungeons & Javas was created with one simple vision: bring people together. As the go-to gaming cafe and board game café in Colorado Springs, we know how tabletop games and coffee spark conversation, build connections, and create lasting memories. But we didn’t want to give COS just another café or game store. Instead, we created a space where unforgettable moments are shared with the people who matter most.

Don’t settle for another average night-in. Book your next adventure at Dungeons & Javas, or get in touch with us today to see how we can level up your night gaming session!

The Story Behind Our Board Game Café in Colorado Springs

Our Origin Story

Our story began like most: with a cool idea and a taken chance. We asked ourselves: what if Colorado Springs had a space where the energy of a local game store met the comfort of a coffeehouse? What if people could come for coffee and games, stay for the food, and leave with a sense of belonging?

We pulled together our love for tabletop RPGs, our passion for good food and drink, and our desire to build a thriving gaming community — and Dungeons & Javas was born. Over the years, we’ve grown to host dozens of community events every month, serve a full menu of handcrafted drinks and café food, and create a space where people feel comfortable staying for hours at a time.

Special thank-you to Kimberlin Roofing for helping with our original buildout — local partnerships like this are part of what keeps our community strong!
