    Escape Rooms Witham
    We had an absolute blast! We did the Big Hangover! The host, Aaron, was professional & funny. We got out with time to spare, I certainly would recommend it for a good fun night out with friends, family, team mates even team building! Put your thinking caps on!

    The hangover
    I took my three boys and two of their friends age range 10 - 15. We all had a fab time. From booking with Matt who was so helpful and so friendly, to our games master Aaron who was just brilliant with the boys and made our experience so much fun. Really recommend doing this as a family, because you have no choice but to work as a team and really pull together. Fantastic family bonding time. Well done Witham Escape Rooms and thank you.

    Fabulous Christmas candy chaos
    Took my son and his x4 school friends today to the Christmas candy chaos. Boys absolutely loved it, had a great afternoon, and just love these escape rooms each time they get together. Staff were very helpful and friendly too. We will be back again soon.

    Candy chaos!
    Not our first and won’t be our last! Already booked for February! Great fun and definitely the best Escape rooms we have been too. Do think the special children rooms should be a slightly lower price as not really on par with the other adult games. Good fun though.

    Good fun even if a but pricey
    My wife, myself and my 12 year old son did the "Exposed" escape room and it was good fun. It was quite challenging and I dont think we would have done it without the clues. I am not a massive puzzle person but I enjoy them now and again. A fun activity for families with older kids or even just adults. Definitely a different kind of day out. Maybe a but pricey but actually it was very atmospheric and well thought out.

We had a brilliant time at the Witham escape rooms with our host manager Callum. We booked last minute and he went out of his way to make sure we had a great experience. Our 6 and 8 year actively taking part full of excitement , and our 2 year old twins there entertained with all the colourful items in the room. Great fun and we made it out with the help of some clues. We will be going back to try a couple of the other rooms which we had a sneak peek at

Great escape rooms with great staff. Everyone was very welcoming and it had a very nice atmosphere. The puzzles in the sausage surprise room were very entertaining and designed to be overthought by adults. The laser tag would be very enjoyable to children (and adults too) but I had a couple issues coughing with the smoke effect - I must note this only bothered me and everyone else I saw using the room had no problems.

We later went on to test run a new room called patient zero. Barring a couple kinks which will if course be fixed before release, it was an interesting take on an escape room, focusing on a more linear concept. The game masters said it was much like marmite, you either love or hate it. I definitely agree. It was less to my liking than the absolutely chaotic scramble of everyone looking everywhere for clues however my friends seemed to very much enjoy it. I would definitely recommend this company.

Went with my misses and 3 kids 18, 19 and 13. Played and escaped from Hangover was fun and had some hard parts (which we did ask for help with) but a great room. But the best part was the people that ran it and specially the guy that monitored us during the game he was fantastic and made it all even better

We had such a laugh playing this room. The clues were challenging and the theme of the room was certainly unique. Miles was a great Games Master and we'd certainly recommend giving Sausage Surprise a go!!

We had a great time at the Big Hangover escape room on Saturday. This is the 3rd escape room I've done and the best I've done so far. Our games master Jack was funny and very nice. We went for a stag do and the stag had a lot of fun. When I booked I accidentally booked too few people and the team were really helpful in getting my last person in. It was easy to sign in and all the staff are lovely. Overall a very positive experience!

I've done many an escape room l and several with this company but patient zero at Witham was the worst by far. The set up, environment, and puzzles were dull which is a shame because the theme had good potential. With the exception of 1 or 2 the puzzles were more hard work than they were fun. The main puzzle, even in explanation from the games master, did not make sense and we opted for guessing as much as anything else. Our games master did not communicate well with us and even from arrival, it felt like we were a burden more than paying customers. I would recommend saving your money and avoiding this game at all costs.

Since this review, we've listened to feedback, and CLOSED Patient Zero for good. Matt, MD Know Escape -- I'm sorry to read this 162 Kurt, You had a poor experience, and that just isn't good enough, or inline with our thousands of 5 star reviews across all our locations UK wide. Patient Zero is the only game within the business that I didn't write, and it is very different from traditional games as it has zero padlocks. Some love this, some do not, I get that, I understand. I've spoken with the location manager, we'll address the staffing challenge you faced, we want the best possible experience for all our customers. I would welcome the opportunity to address your concerns, and would welcome contact from you at info@knowescape.co.uk I'm sorry, Matthew Eaves MD Know Escape

My son and four friends went too Witham Escape Rooms yesterday, from the moment of my initial enquiry via email too actually leaving the site after completing the ‘Patient Zero’ escape room the service was excellent. Every member of staff we encountered was courteous and friendly, every question or request was met with a friendly smiling face. Highly recommended, we will definitely go back.
