Can I get a refund if someone doesn’t turn up?
Unfortunately not, we don’t provide refunds if someone doesn’t play.
Do you serve drinks?
A variety of drinks, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic, are available at our in-house bar within each venue. These can be enjoyed in our premium lounge and also taken into our escape rooms.
Is there a dress code? Do I need to bring anything?
Black tie/ball gown, obviously. Just kidding – come as you are, although we do suggest comfortable clothing as the games can get quite intense.

Other than that, just your team and a set of working brains!
What discounts do you offer?
What exactly is an Escape Hunt?
Think of Escape Hunt as the closest you’re likely to get to starring in a brilliantly plotted escape movie. You and your teammates get locked in a themed room and have to find and solve a series of clues in order to escape. The pressure’s on, the clock’s ticking, the adrenaline’s pumping. Escape Hunt isn’t something you watch, it’s something you experience – right in the heart of the action. We make you earn your freedom, throwing all manner of devious and dastardly red herrings, dead ends and misdirections your way. It’s completely immersive, utterly addictive and totally entertaining. After Escape Hunt, other entertainment just feels flat.

Our experiences range from 45 minutes to 90 minutes, depending on the adventure. Visit the individual game pages to find out more information.
Am I safe in the room?

What is a City Hunt game?
Our City Hunt games unite the thrill of escape rooms with the buzz of an outdoor pursuit.

Is the game weather dependent?
Our City Hunt games will go ahead come rain or shine so we advise that you check the weather forecast beforehand. Please come prepared for all types of weather – remember sun screen and a hat on sunny days, and we will provide you with ponchos to help keep you nice and dry on drizzlier days.
In instances of severe wind, rain or weather warnings, we may have to cancel your game. Games are not refundable, but if cancelled due to the weather we will contact you to let you know and reschedule your game to another time. We will also offer you the option to switch to one of our indoor game rooms for a small price difference and dependent on availability.
