A great place to go with friends. Riddle Room encompasses great escape rooms, with a quality board game (and electronic game) selection and great cafe food. Out of all the escape places I have been to, this one is the ONLY one I have been to that has everything and is done well.
ESCAPE ROOM
When I look for a good escape place, I need to see good staging, non-obvious puzzles and ambiance. The construction of the rooms is very good. I've seen a lot of chop shop room builds and this one was well finished. Maybe even to code (ignoring fake fixures in the rooms though). The props were thoughtful and worked within the design of the space. Thought was put into misleading participants slightly. Puzzles incorporated multiple aspects of the room, and it wasn't like there was ONE puzzle per room that was like... "solve the soduko on this box and here is the key to this other box that has a clearly marked puzzle".... you have to work for it and that's what makes it thrilling!
FOOD
My party tried an array of paninis, lattes and smoothies/milkshakes. Everything we had was good. Milkshakes were rich in taste and tasted real. Paninis were made on sliced bread and had good flavour combinations. Also comes with chips and a light mayo dip. Latte art is definitely a highlight. I had a cute piggy on mine. I saw another girl who had a Totoro on hers. The quality art definitely adds to the latte experience. ;)
BOARD GAMES
Good selection of popular and niche games, all in great condition. The Settlers of Catan game we played was actually *new* still with pieces in plastic bags. We actually had to ask if we could play it because we weren't sure if a game that was meant to be sold got mixed in with the rest. For the record, it doesn't appear that any of RR's games are up for sale. (But I didn't ask)
BONUS
They have a photo booth right before you leave the escape room area where you can take pictures with your team. Photos can be shared on social media or emailed to you directly from the ipad. And you can tag the walls! So fun.
