Jack-In-A-Box Tearoom in Amber Valley

Great place to play tabletop board or Roleplaying games. Friendly staff, nice environment.

Excellent little gem of a shop and café that my family and I have been visiting for a few years now.Good selection of goods from hand crafted ornamental pieces to rare board games and collectables (some of which you can grab and have a play free of charge in the cafe!). With a fan of collectables, games and retro items at the till on hand to offer advice (Ben).More than fairly priced food and drink made by Paul and his staff. With a proper British feel to the menu and presentation.My only gripe is that I wish it were bigger!I couldn't recommend this place any more. It's one of my favourite shops in Ripley.

Nice pot of tea. Quirky set up at the back of the shop. Reasonable prices. Meal deal for sandwiches crisps and a drink. But other cakes and pastries etc available. A few more tables than you might expect as the shop is quite narrow. Worth a try. I'll be happy to go back again.

A tranquil gem of a shop just off from the high street brings both a good browsing experience and a good cuppa and slice of cake at a very fair price. Play or purchase board / card games and indulge yourself in a bit of table top RPG. 🤔

This is such a lovely of place! Great I if you like quirky and can settle with (organic!) filter coffee... The cake selection was broad and looked good, but I didn't partake so can't say more than that. The shop bit of a kooky menagerie of bits and bobs, and (nonline) gaming paraphernalia.

This place is a real delight, selling an eclectic mix of new and old items and toys for kids and adults. There is a delightful cafe tucked away in the back too. It's a wonderful little shop which should be supported by the local community and visitors a like. If you're looking for a great gift, something for a dolls house or a little bric a brac item or just a browse, followed by a delightful bite and drink then this is the place

Aladdins cave that could be overlooked due to its location. Very quaint little shop that offers a range of different products from home bits and bobs to board games. Lovely little cafe at the rear that is very reasonably priced and the staff who I believe are the owners are very polite and always ready to help. I believe that games nights are run on a Thursday evening for anyone who wants to join in.

From fantasy games too fantastic service. This place is a quite place to relax with the world of Pokemon, role playing games such as D&D and posters in the background.The only downside is the only way to get to this cafe is though the shop with narrow corridors and a few steps.

I alway love being here and being around friends. Playing games, trying new bored games and over all just enjoying the atmosphere. The food and drink are all fantastic and the staff are wonderful people.I spent the last 3 years of Wednesday coming here and I don't plan on stopping any time soon.

Lovely shop with an extensive range of gifts, antiques and records and cds. They also have a large selection of cards and games and game related merchandise and they run card tournaments and events. It also has a coffee shop that serves delicious homemade cakes. Well worth a visit.
