Transport

Cars: The Triangle Car Park is at the end of Clifton Road. In addition, there are 30-minute parking bays just up the road near Newtown Stores convenience shop, as well as 2-hour bays in each of the side roads off of Clifton Road (Clifton Street, Chute Street, Sandford Walk, etc). If you have an electric vehicle, there are charging points in Belmont Road (along the front of Belmont Park), on the left from the end of Clifton Road.

Bus: The nearest bus stop is Lower Summerlands at the junction of Clifton Road and Heavitree Road. The new Exeter Bus Station is only a few yards further away, by St. Sidwell’s Point Leisure Centre and the VUE Cinema (walk down past the VUE cinema, across Western Way, between Jury’s Inn and Belmont Chapel to the Triangle Car Park and then turn left past The Clifton Inn).

FOOD & DRINK

Clifton Road Games do not provide or sell food and/or drinks on the premises, but customers are welcome to bring their own.

Newtown Stores is just up the road (on your left as you exit the shop), The Clifton Inn has an in-house bakery, as well as their regular pub menu, and is also just up the road (on the right as you exit). Exe Coffee Roasters are across the Triangle Car Park (opposite the Pyramids Leisure Centre).

We generally advise that gamers take specific breaks for food and drinks, rather than snacking throughout. It’s safer for the games components.

Customer toilets are provided in-store. Note that these are wheelchair accessible but not fully equiped as disabled facilities (ie. they don’t have all of the hand rails, etc).

Fallout Wasteland Warfare

Demo / Game Day

UPDATE: The official Modiphius Entertainent Demo Team have (yet again) pushed their date back (to January ’23… or later), but we will go ahead with a Fallout Game Day on 29th October ’22. They are still promising to show up with lots of ‘first look’ eclusives but not until after the New Year.

Saturday, 29th October 2022

Bring your own minis or turn up and join in. Learn-to-Play, Expert, or any level in between.

In the absence of an Official (Modiphius) Demo Table, we’ve pushed the start back to 2pm, to avoid clashing with the Pokemon event in the morning.

In-store Pokémon TCG suspended until 2021

Pokémon have taken the decision to suspend all official face-to-face Pokémon TCG organized play for the remainder of 2020.

Dear Retailers and Organizers,

In the interest of the safety of everyone involved, all sanctioned Play! Pokémon events (including League session, Club, Prerelease, League Challenge, League Cup, Premier Challenge, and Midseason Showdown) will remain suspended until the end of 2020.

The safety and wellbeing of our competitors, organizers, employees, local communities, and partners continues to be our top priority and is the primary consideration with every decision we make. 

We are closely monitoring health mandates, guidelines, and recommendations from appropriate government agencies to determine when the resumption of events and operations will be safe for our communities. We will keep you updated.
