Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

As a couple we have done quite a few escape rooms, but this was the first with our son. We had booked as a surprise treat and boy we weren’t disappointed. We were running a little behind but we didn’t feel rushed.
The room itself was a combination (no pun intended) of padlocks and some more high tech affairs and there were moments where we really had to think. The clue system was excellent, we relied on our Games Masters knowledge of the room to get us through. The GM was obviously really comfortable with the room and gave us hints when they felt we needed them, they came at the perfect rate. It was also well executed and felt really immersive.
The room itself was a little tired and could do with a lick of paint and maybe some more screws. Also, maybe a few less padlocks. However, all in all the experience was excellent and we will certainly be back again to try our hand at other rooms.

First time ever doing an escape room and using this company. There was some building work being done while we were there ( making another escape room) but the staff were all professional and friendly and made everyone feel welcome. Nice selection of beers etc if you like a drink.
Ben, our game master gave us plenty of time to settle in and made us feel comfortable, explained the game well.
Overall a good experience and we enjoyed it thoroughly. Will be back for another different room next time.
Thanks.

Although a bit tricky to find, this escape room was great. It was good for all ages, brilliantly themed (witches and wizards) and the staff were excellent - Josh was so friendly and helpful!
It’s a bit pricy at £20 a person but a lovely treat for my nephews birthday, nice to do something different that we can all enjoy. We will definitely be back to try the other rooms!

We had no idea what to expect, so when we were greeted by the staff, they made us very welcome and reassured us that we would be fine( we wondered if we would be able to solve any clue at all). The game was very clever and made us all think very carefully when trying to solve the clues. It's set up very well and the staff are there with you in the background in case you get really stuck. At the end, we got a de brief and discovered the answers to the frustrating clues that eluded us, but were right in front of our noses all the time. All in all, a very different way to spend an hour and really enjoyable. Well done to Escape Room staff.

Never done an escape room before so had no idea what to expect. On arrival all of thdd staff were very welcoming and helpful. We were early so had a drink first and watched the axe throwing. It looks harder than you think!
Our "guide" claire, took us through to our escape room and explained the story and what we needed to do. Which was to solve clues to find eggs.
Puzzles were mostly solving clues to open number or word padlocks.
There was a lot of running around and it got very loud with everyone trying to be heard!
A lot of fun with 7 of us aged 6 to 62!
Would definitely go again.

I went with family and we had a fantastic, fun time in 221b Baker Street.
Our Games Master, Natalie, was really friendly and helpful, but did give us time to work out puzzles before providing clues, of which we only needed a couple.
The puzzles are well designed and challenging.
This was my second escape room and will definitely go again.

A great escape experience. Previously did the bank heist here. This was even better if a bit more difficult. Managed it in a great time after a few initial hiccups. Clever staging, clues and riddles. Many thanks to Natalie the games master for fitting us in at late notice. She was so enthusiastic welcoming and obliging. What an asset to you.
Good bar too!

Went 3 times with my best mate and tried out 3 different escape rooms and did axe throwing as well and loved every bit of it. All three escape rooms were different and lots of fun. Had a great games master for 2 of them called Corey who was excellent. I would highly recommend the escape rooms

So much fun on my 1st escape room experience . Much harder than I thought . We had a crack at the arcade room and failed miserably 😂 . We had so much fun we came back 3 hrs later to tackle the bank heist and one again failed 🤣. The staff were amazing and the hr just flew in. We shall be back to try again . Thank you so much for a wonderful time

Went in having no experience in escape rooms. It was quite tricky! Kieran the guy who got ours ready was so helpful. And very kind. Really enjoyed it. Was a lot of fun. Lucky I had my son who was a genius. But special thanks to Kieran and the bar lady. In fact all staff were really helpful. Would definitely go back. Top marks for everyone!
