Escape the Vault

Intriguingly located inside ‘Presuming Ed’s’ Coffee House, this escape room is centred around the story of Brighton’s oldest bank vault where your mission is to carryout a daring robbery.  Solve the puzzles like a criminal mastermind and succeed in pulling off a daring heist – and all for the reasonable price of a ticket.

Escape the Cell

As the name would suggest, this escape room puts you behind bars with the challenge of solving the clues to a prison break while handcuffed with your (in)mates. This venue is a lot of fun as well having the youngest entrance age at 7yrs. Ticket prices vary according to the number in the group. Finally, a quirky bar downstairs ensures a celebratory drink when you crack the code to escape.
