Best Escape Rooms in London

If you haven’t yet encountered an escape room experience, it’s highly recommended that you do!

Escape rooms are perfect for team building, students or for getting together with friends and family. You could even book one for a hen party or stag do! They’re fun days out and even better on rainy days!

You’ll learn that working together as a team is key. Working efficiently and effectively whilst problem solving will help you to unlock the codes to escaping!

What usually happens when you participate in an escape room:

1) Your team will be locked in a room filled with a mystery
2) You will be given a specified time frame to try to complete the challenge (usually 60 minutes)
3) Find the clues to solve the mystery!

There’s usually different difficulties to choose from so you can decide whichever ability your group is feeling up to.
