짱 코리아 보드게임카페 ZZANG KOREAN BOARDGAME CAFE Vie Score 83
Worth going out of your way for
Why it is our number one: This is the heavy hitter for the late-night social crowd. We recommend it for the novelty of private rooms and console gaming rather than a curated board game library; it is a sprawling, neon-lit lounge perfect for losing track of time until 2am.
