Breakin' Escape Rooms London

My favourite escape rooms in London. My partner and I did almost all of the rooms and they're consistently great, very immersive, and incredibly well designed. The staff are friendly and helpful as well. Definite recommend!

We went to this breakout room especially for the wizards room. All in all the puzzles and clues were great, they included things from Harry Potter which is exactly what we needed, however, the experience fell short due to the electronics/functionality as we had completed certain things and wondered why the game wouldn’t continue, we only found out after asking for clues which lead the game master to realise that something hadn’t worked. This greatly affected the experience as we doubted the following functionality of puzzles leading to waste even more time. I hope this is addressed in future.

I can understand that the design of the rooms is well done, and it might've been good at some point, they feel worn down and tired now...Do NOT come here if you have any sort of sensory processing issues or accessibility restrictions.. the waiting area is so incredibly loud and echoing that by the time we made it into the room, the two autistic people in our group were completely overwhelmed... not to mention getting snapped at by staff, for trying to do what their colleague told us to do... Then once in the room you could hear music from several other rooms, and incessant beeping from the walkie-talkie docks in the main area.We also called ahead, and were told that music could be turned off in the room, after explaining that we had people in our group with sensory issues.. only the find out once we were there that this wasn't possible.They also don't specify ahead of time that the room relies on sound ques at several points.. meaning my hard of hearing friend missed these ques and had to rely on us to explain to her, despite again having explained this when calling ahead.Sadly there were also several puzzles in the room that were not reset, and were already solved. We were told on several occasions by staff that they were short staffed, so I guess that was the cause, but maybe take less bookings then.. I guess this was also the reason for the toilets being disgusting.In the end the experience was so draining for half our group, and our friend ended up with an unfortunately very public autistic meltdown, we ended up having to cancel the rest of our day.It's sad to see businesses still getting accessibility so wrong in this day and age.. a ruined birthday could've been entirely prevented if the person on the phone had given honest and accurate details in regards to sound levels.*Side note.. the cute costumes you see in the pictures, you are not allowed to wear in the escape room.. it's only for posing in front of a badly lit wall at the end. Kinda weird, but ok...

I've done three of the escape rooms here :Wizarding School : brilliant theming, great puzzles and ambience.Sherlock's Despair : tricky but really fun - a challenge to complete and very satisfying.Joker's Trap : fun, but quite short, didn't feel as immersive or have as many intricate details as the first two.Overall, a great venue and well worth a visit if you enjoy puzzles and teamwork.

Excellent team running it, we enjoyed the pirate themed escape room which was a level three, and I agree it was a level three as we do one every month. The location is easy to get to but do ensure you take a drink with you as it was quite warm! There are lockers you can store your stuff safely.

We had a great time doing the Wizarding-themed escape room here!! We were a team of three siblings with only a small amount of escape room experience, and we found it super fun and challenging but not stressful which was ideal. We escaped the room but we did have quite a few hints – if you are more experienced and don’t want clues, make that clear to your games master as ours helped us unprompted a few times. We didn’t mind that though as we were just there to have fun and were keen to complete. The room itself is really detailed and cool, great attention to detail and plenty of “magic” as per the theme. Joe our games master was hilarious. We definitely have the escape room bug now and look forward to escaping our next one without help next time!!

This was such a fun experience ! We played in the Sherlock’s Despair room and the clues were difficult enough but not too difficult to always ask for clues which is an option. Sadly we arrived later than expected so our time was understandably cut short, but we still managed to figure out some clues and still had lots of fun !

This was a fun activity for the whole family to enjoy. My daughter and her friends was so excited when sloving the clues but we did need some assistance. I would go back and do another one. we had an hour in total to figure out the clues but we cut the wrong wire which took minutes from our clock. In the end we had one box to open but the time ran out.

An absolutely great experience we had as a group of 6! We had friends over for a long weekend and decided to try escape rooms for the first time for all of us! We loved it so much that we came back for a second escape room 2 hours later! The staff were great explaining everything beforehand, and all the way through when we needed a bit of a push in the right direction! A great time and we are looking forward to trying different rooms soon!

We went there at the weekend. The staff is nice and friendly. Gave information and guidelines clearly which I really like. The room is nicely designed and decorated. We played the theme- the butcher’s liar. We like the story outline, but the designer of game is slightly straightforward and not feeling challenging. We spent less than half hour to escape but we expect more than that. Thus, hope there is some improvement on this regarding the difficulty of the traps. But in general it is good.
