The Escape Room Florence - Florence, Alabama

Keri Smith

This was my first Escape Room experience so I don't have anything to compare it to, but I did have much more fun than I expected. My sister and I planned this experience for my mom's birthday, not realizing she's done an escape room before, however, she said her last time involved being with a group of strangers - teenagers, who made it impossible to participate and enjoy. Florence Escape Room now has all private rooms so regardless of the number of participants you still won't have to be grouped with strangers.

I checked their website prior to booking to see the different options and be sure we didn't pick the most challenging room for the first time and did notice the level of challenge/teamwork was slightly different on the listing inside versus online, but it wasn't a huge difference and I don't think most people would notice. Speaking of booking online, it was incredibly easy to see which rooms had which times available and just as easy to complete a booking (even those made the day-of). We all got there with time to sign waivers for ourselves and the minor and were promptly taken back at the time booked.

After looking online at all the different rooms, we chose the space-themed Atlas 8 room. With it being a total of 5 family members able to go, we were all a bit nervous about the teamwork level involved at first, but we all participated and were not only able to each find clues, but escaped with minutes left! The only thing I would warn other first-time visitors of is to know that when they tell you things are for observation only and not to pull them - don't assume observation only means simply decor. Overall, it was a great experience and I plan to go back again to escape other rooms!

I had no problem with the actual game. It’s actually pretty fun. But be warned if you pay in advance and forget to reschedule with them. They will straight take your money. That’s what they did with my 130 dollars. No refund even offered. Just “sorry for your luck”. This would be a 5 star if not for that. I mean, life gets hectic. Forgetting a scheduled escape room date is like losing a matching sock. It happens.

This was our first escape house experience. I was skeptical about it at the beginning, but it actually turned out to be a lot of fun. It takes a clever person to understand many of the scenarios, but the challenge was really quite interesting. I'd say four to five people maximum, as any more could be crowding while searching for clues. As for the staff, everyone was friendly and helpful, and they even offer tips during the event if you become stuck and can't progress. They accept debit or credit cards, but the price is discounted when paying by cash. No forward appointment or reservation is necessary, but it helps if you'd prefer a certain room at particular time. Overall we had a great time and will definitely try a different scenario with them soon.

GREAT Theming. A super fun staff that was extremely helpful in making our girl's trip extra fun. (Psst, they even had some secret discounts... If you ask nicely ☺️).

We took a group of Boy Scouts to do some team building and had a great time! Staff was very helpful and both groups enjoyed the rooms they were in. I’ve been to escape type rooms in other areas and this is definitely the best! We highly recommend them!

So fun! We all had a blast. Great for all ages. Even our 5 year old contributed and was able to help with clues.

My fiance, my son and I all love coming here. We've only been thrice so far and plan on coming a fourth time again soon. But it's a great family activity. I'm not crazy about the parking situation but that's not the establishment's fault. Other than the sometimes inconvenient parking, the only downside to the escape room has been their prices as they are quite a bit on the expensive side.
