Level Up Lounge

A St. George gaming lounge stacked with English and Japanese Pokemon singles, plus console stations downstairs for late-night sessions.

Level Up Lounge splits into two distinct spaces: a retail floor stocked with trading card games up front, and a downstairs kids corner and lounge area where a lot of the after-school crowd ends up. Reviewers specifically call out the layout as something St. George didn't have before this store opened.

The Pokemon selection is the headline: English and Japanese product both, at prices customers describe as better than the online marketplaces they'd been checking before. Magic: The Gathering and Yu-Gi-Oh round out the card wall, with sealed booster boxes and packs stocked alongside a singles case for players building specific decks rather than cracking packs blind.

Past the card shelves, the lounge itself is the differentiator: gaming consoles and PC stations sit in a separate area for anyone who wants to hang out rather than shop and leave, and tabletop board games fill the gaps between. It's less a quick-stop card shop and more a destination for an afternoon, which shows in how long customers tend to linger once they're through the door.

Hours run long on weekends, open until midnight Friday and Saturday, while weekday hours close at 10pm. The shop is closed Sundays, so Saturday tends to be the busiest single day, especially once the lounge fills up in the evening.
