Just moved from Florida and curious if anyone can recommend some good places for buying RPGs and/or Boardgames.

Nope but I can say a visit to the Pop Museum (https://www.mopop.org/) there would be worth the time.

Rumor has it, they even have a Dalek in there somewhere.

I have friends in the area and will get you an answer on Saturday if no one has helped you before then.

Google is your friend ... Why haven‘t you tried searching?

Well, mostly cause google will just tell me where to buy, not if the place has a good selection or if just a cool place to visit :)
But I will skim that article for the recommendations, thanks

Cafe Mox is pretty well known in the Seattle area for board games and RPGs. I’ve been there a few times.

Sorry I took longer than expected my friends where hard to reach.

Here's what I got so far:


the ones I go to are Uncles Games at Crossroads Mall and Mox Boarding House (which also has a restaurant) on Bel-Red Road, both in Bellevue. There's also a Mox Boarding House in Ballard in Seattle. When I was younger, I went to Gary's Games in Greenwood, but they shut down 5 years ago. Mox is probably the better choice of the two, but that's an entirely subjective opinion.

Uncles: https://www.unclesgames.com/

Mox Boarding House: https://www.moxboardinghouse.com/

Edit one more recommendation came in: Not so much for buying but a great place for gaming and hanging out is AFK Tavern https://www.afktavern.com/

Depends _how_ you search, as you can see with the link I‘ve provided. MOX, etc. is in it as well..
