We had a few drinks at the bar while the teens problem solved their way out of their chosen room - The Tavern. Time allowed to escape is one hour, however on this occasion the kids were close to finishing and were allowed a little extra time to escape. The staff organised a mighty 1 metre pizza and rosemary hot chips from Presto Pizza which was freshly delivered and delicious and we supplemented this food with a platter of sushi and a birthday cake.
Kids had a great time and adults got to relax. Very positive talk from the teens who had a great time. We had a small group and used only one room so played one game and had 45 minutes in the lounge bar afterwards which was great for us. Bigger groups may want to consider a of a longer stay. The package we chose was very economical for us and the right length of time.

  Being an escape room enthusiast, I was expecting big things from the Tripadvisor rating. However, I came out of 'Old School' pretty disappointed.

The start was fantastic, but... read more it went downhill from there. Most of the codes were just given to you without much work needed at all. The room also clearly hasn't been maintained, with tattered printed out pictures on the walls that need replacing.

One of the puzzles was also flawed, which really brought the mood down as we spent 5 minutes trying to work out the meaning, which we were never going to work out because we were set up for failure.

The ending was also really awkward, as we were asked to leave through the door we entered through... We could also hear the people in the room next door, which really killed the atmosphere. It felt like there was an attempt to fit heaps of room into the space with not much care for the quality of the experience.

The manager responded well to feedback and welcomed us back for another room, however I'm not very keen after this expensive and disappointing experience. More

  We signed up 15 staff members for a pre staff party event and it didn't disappoint. Would highly recommend to anyone look to have a booze free team building experience.

  Thoroughly enjoyed the Bach, loved the end and sense of achievement when you open the door out. Great experience even with only 2 people
