First time coming to Breakout Chester, Lucy talked us through what we needed and was really nice. Unfortunately, we didn't breakout but will come back and try another room. Lucy suggested a couple for us to try.

Having never experienced an escape room game before I didn’t know what to expect. It was my teenage sons idea, and it was great from start to finish. Staff were great. We played Cursed Carnival which I’m told was a good entry level game. I mostly enjoyed seeing my two boys problem solving and working together. The time flies by. And we managed to get out! They have already requested we come back and have a go at another game, which we will do.

As a group we’ve completed most of the rooms at Breakout, and we’ve always received a friendly, warm welcome. Danielle was our host today for Forgotten Tomb and she was friendly, informative and gave us the right amount of clues at the right times. Another successful escape maintaining our breakout record 👍🏻
Many thanks, we’ll be back again soon!

It was very well set up, and the standing out from the norm with less-locks, more-action was a nice active change. Ben was an amazing host, and had us feeling very welcome from the get go. I can't recommend this enough to anyone with 60mins to spare, definitely worthwhile!!

I had such a fantastic time today. Me and my friend did two rooms (Dead End and Vacancy). Paul and Wilfred were outstanding! They went above and beyond what was required and they put a lot of enthusiasm into their explanations which really made us even more excited. (Paul even remembered me and my friend from when we went last time and even asked about our books we bought last time we were there!). Paul and Wilfred made our experience amazing and you can tell they love their jobs. 10/10 would recommend. Me and my friend are already planning our next visit!

Danielle was very helpful to us as we were a mix of new and experienced guests- young and old, also helped us when we were completely lost and helped us get back on track - we broke out. Would visit again - this is my 4th visit and always had great service

Lucy was phenomenal! Nothing was too much trouble as we had a newbie and an oldie today. We did the magic room & she was nothing short of brilliant. She’s an asset to your business

I have done 2 in the past 2 weeks vacancy last week and dead end this week both absolutely amazing and we passed both with only a little time spare but we escaped that’s the main thing, last Monday our game operator was connor who was kind and helpful and can and helped us when the safe wouldn’t open he gave us an amazing experience and is a credit to the team , today my game operator was Wilfred a very enthusiastic kind hearted person he made sure to make our experience as realistic as possible and made it a memorable experience, he is also a credit to your team, both rooms were well themed and fun to play and I enjoyed all of it and it is worth every penny , I highly recommend:)

Hi, do any of your escape rooms offer jump scares? Looking for birthday treat for a friend who wants a ''scary" escape room. Thanks
Hello there!
Not all rooms have jump scares in them, some of the spookier themed rooms like Forsaken & Cursed Carnival (as well as other) may have things that make you jump. Give us call when you book and we're sure we can accommodate some extra surprises if you wish! :)
Looking to book for May bank holiday and having trouble choosing! They all sound so good!
Does the Dark Magic one have any Harry Potter connection?
Which out of Vacancy and Identify which do you think would be best for 1 escape room regular with 3 escape room virgins?
Thanks,
Hi Sophie!
Our Dark Magic room is our very own wizard theme that I am sure you would thoroughly enjoy! :)
As for Vacancy and Identify, They are both great choices!
I would say our Vacancy room is slightly easier :) but they are both great fun!
Hope this helps!
Look forward to seeing you next month!

Is there access for an elderly wheelchair bound person to wait in the building and sit comfortably whilst the rest of the team play the games?
Do you have refreshments on site?
Also, please can you cater for birthday parties of up 13 people.
Thanks
Tracie
Hi Tracie!
We do have wheelchair access and a place for them to sit that's no problem at all. We have a water fountain on site but no other refreshments. Yeah that's fine to have 13 people, no problem at all. However, as we do have a 5 person in one at a time policy we recommend you book a few rooms :)
Hope this helps!

Hi, what is the youngest age accepted to okay please? Thinking of a gift for 2 dads plus 2 sons aged 10 and 11. Thanks
Thanks for your question. There's no age restriction to play in our rooms. We do require an adult to accompany children under 16, but as there will be 2 dads this will be fine. What a great choice for a gift. :)

Do you do NHS discount please
Hi Dawn, we don't do NHS discount I'm afraid, however, our prices are already on a discount scheme dependent on the number of people coming to play!
Hope this helps!

Hi,
Your website recommends 2-5 players but as a group of 7 we really want to do this together, would this be possible?

I believe the max is 5.... certainly from experience 7 would be crammed .... we are going back in April with a group of 7 so will need a 2nd room ... I would suggest trying to get a few others to make the 10 and choose 2 teams randomly...

Hi
I really need to book for 6 people in one room. Is this possible please if I phone to book?

yes of course we had 2 teams of 6
would 5 15 year olds be able to attend without an adult in the room ?
Hi Mia,
Anyone under the age of 16 requires an adult. On some occasions depending on their age and the situation of the group we can allow an adult to stay in our reception area while the game is running rather than having to play the game with the team inside the room.
Any other questions please don't hesitate to give us a call on 01244 638061.

Where do I park ?
Hi Anne, there is parking available near to our site but we do not have our own car park. The closest available parking is Market Street car park. Hope this is helpful. Looking forward to seeing you!
