St Louis Escape - St. Louis, Missouri

We came here for a birthday celebration and it was awesome.

In my opinion, this was maybe the second best miniature golf course I've been on, with the first being Twilight Zone in Las Vegas. It has a wonderful assortment of creative puzzles for you to shoot your ball through and the black light visuals are stunning. I didn't do the escape rooms, so I can't speak to those, but this place is awesome for a chill night of recreation.

On a cold Saturday, we decided to check this place out. There is pay parking nearby and it is conveniently off the highway. It's next to residential buildings and the Soulard market. I felt safe in this area. We booked a round of mini golf the day before and opted for an early time - 12:15. We were only the second group playing, at the time and it was nice. There's a ton of pinball machines where which we will need to check out on a different visit. The course overall is challenging and very unique. We had a blast and took nearly an hour. By the time we left, there were a ton of people coming in, which wouldn't have been as enjoyable, so I recommend coming when it's slow!

We (2 adults & 2 teens) had a great time today at the retro mini golf course. One thing to know, is there is a lot of stairs to get to the mini golf. Best mini golf we have ever been too. We will definitely be back.

Loved it so unique, old school fun. We went to the putt shack and was very disappointed but this place made up for it big time. Lots of room lots of courses. It isn't fancy but that's what makes it even more fun.

Only gave it 4 because the stairs are a nightmare. Especially when it's raining they're very narrow and steep.

Though this escape room seems sketchy from the outside, and without a parking lot, it is incredible. Their rooms seem to point more towards spooky themes. We did Blackbeard's room with ages 7-19. It was tad scary themeing for the little ones but they did fine. The decor is spectacular, and you are fully immersed in the dirty of your room. The staff was really friendly and on top of everything. In addition to the escape rooms, they have lots of pinball games and black light mini golf. I definitely recommend trying these rooms. They are fantastic!

The Haunted Mansion room was the best escape room we’ve ever done!!! Vintage pinball machines were awesome. Whole vibe is great there.

Our family of 4 had a good time doing an escape room and then a round of mini golf. We gave ourselves a buffer of 30 minutes in between, which was the perfect amount of time for our kids to go thru about $10 in the pinball room. The golf has great music and nostalgic murals that look cool in the black lights. I enjoyed golfing here more than Putt Shack - way less crazy and a much better price.

My reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is because of our experience upon arrival. We got there 15 minutes early for our 2:05 start time to allow time to get inside, registered, and lock our stuff up. The doors to the facility were locked and the sign on the door said they were closed on Mondays unless they had a booking. Five minutes or so went by and another family walked up. We tried calling the number and no one answered. My youngest started to get upset (this was a gift for him) and my husband and I started to think we had gotten scammed. Then, two people walked by and unlocked the door and went inside, without acknowledging any of us standing outside.

A simple, "Sorry folks, come on up and we'll get you going" would have gone a long way in smoothing the initial impression we had.

Once things got up and running, we had a good time. The workers were really friendly and even let us go beyond our hour time limit since there was no one booked right after us in the escape room. We will probably be back.

I have been here several times for both the escape rooms and the mini golf. Hands down one of the best black light arcade themed mini golf that's indoor in STL!

The escape rooms are of very high quality but I can't be the only one that thinks the difficulty is significantly higher than posted. Trying to figure out the process of what you are looking for in clues to get a code is not clear whatsoever. You'll be guessing what you are trying to solve for and have to ask for help to get started in the right direction. The quality and amount of build in these rooms is extremely high! They are very impressive with the level of interaction. I definitely would start with the easiest rooms they offer for the best experience.
