"My wife and I took part in the Mind Palaces new 'table top' mystery experience which has been introduced to combat the difficulties with doing a fully immersive experience during the social distancing guidelines. We were sat down, given drinks and presented with a locked briefcase, a padlocked box and a tablet which had 'case files' required to solve the various puzzles. We had a great time drinking and solving the various puzzles. It was a great way of keeping the experience and feel while obeying the safety guidelines. Well done!"

"Completely immersive from the moment you receive the confirmation email to the moment you’re stumbling out of Mind Palace speakeasy bar... After the game was completed we were escorted through the Mind Palace, a speakeasy bar fit with some additional puzzles to cool down. The cocktails were actually some of the best we’ve had in London, with the knowledge and experience of an excellent bartender who nailed his recommendations when we offered our flavour preferences. The drinks were shown the same meticulous care that was reflected in the escape room itself."

"An exciting, immersive, and engaging venue. Great for a date night or group outing. Highly recommended!"

"After we completed our mission for the Network, it was nice to get some drinks and have a chat. The place and the setting was just amazing, full of pictures of the best scenes of the show. The atmosphere was perfect and the staff was super nice. Perfect closing of an intense adventure!"

"Super well designed escape room, with realistic and creative props. Different rooms challenged different types of logic. Also great way to end the evening at an inspired sherlock speakeasy bar!! Highly recommend"

"The drinks, service and atmosphere was incredible. Thank you particularly to Stamford for his support - it wouldn't have been the same without you!"

"Perfectly themed and really good drinks in the bar!"
