A Street Games

A Park Avenue hole-in-the-wall with an outsized Magic single stock — the Idaho Falls shop regulars send you to when nobody else has the card.

Ask around Idaho Falls long enough and someone will call A Street Games a hidden jewel, which is both a compliment and an accurate description of a small Park Avenue storefront that does not advertise much. The inventory is the argument. Reviewers repeatedly describe walking in after striking out elsewhere and having the owner locate a very specific Magic: The Gathering card at a fair price, which is only possible in a shop that keeps its singles genuinely organized.

The space is modest and honest about it — shelves of board games and RPG hardcovers, cases of trading cards, a dice selection worth digging through, and tables that regularly have games running on them. The owner greets people at the door and tends to ask what you are looking for rather than leave you to wander, which newcomers find helpful and veterans find efficient. It is the sort of Idaho Falls card shop where a question about a deck turns into a fifteen-minute conversation.

Hours are consistent and simple: eleven to seven, Monday through Saturday, closed Sunday. Because the shop runs on one or two people, mid-afternoon on a weekday is when you will get the most attention at the counter; Friday and Saturday evenings fill with players and the tables take priority.

Park Avenue parking is street-side and usually available, and the location sits close enough to downtown that the shop pairs naturally with a walk along the Greenbelt. If you are comparing trading cards Idaho Falls options, treat this one as the specialist stop — smaller footprint than Gameopolis, less event scheduling than Game Grid, but often the one holding the single you actually came for.
