Chestnut Hill Escape Room Philadelphia

I had the pleasure of bringing youth from my job to the escape room here in Chestnut Hill yesterday. It was my first escape room I ve ever attended and for the youth as well. James was an amazing host and added onto the energy as we worked together to solve the mystery. The room set up was great (don t want to give up any spoilers). Before entering the room we were given an intro by James that set the tone and had us all eager to solve the mystery. It was simply amazing seeing my youth work together. I would recommend this place for family and adults. The area is great and is pretty calm atmosphere.

We booked the Shady Hat room for mine and my brothers birthday. It was 8 of us. We had a Fantabulous time. It was so much fun! Our host was so sweet and so very nice! I would definitely recommend Chestnut Hill Escape Room! I would suggest that you leave plenty enough time to look for parking because its tough trying to find parking.

I went with a group of kids as a trip for my job and this was a blast. The guys who took care of us, James, was friendly and helpful and created a fun experience for a pretty rambunctious group of 3rd graders! The room itself was really well done and clever! I wont give out any spoilers but I def felt like being in a real life Scooby Doo scenario! Its located in a great part of town so you could easily make a fun night of it with friends! This was my first escape room experience and.honestly, I couldnt have asked for a better place to start.

Decent level of puzzles and atmosphere. Fun decor and variety of puzzles.

It was lit we made it with just 1 minute left .

We came here to do the Hat Shop as a family (7 members) between Christmas and New Years 2019 and had an absolute blast. Our guide, James, was knowledgeable and patient with our group of mostly first timers to the Escape Room experience and gave us a comprehensive rundown of what to expect and prepare us for the experience. The room itself was cleverly designed with almost every clue being both completely obscured and yet right in the open which made it perfect for those with a keen sense of observation...
Read full review. The one hour time frame was just about right as we were able to figure it out with only the slightest assistance from James which made it feel well earned but just having him there in case you were really stuck was comforting and should be very useful for those afraid to try an escape room for the first time. I would strongly suggest this adventure to others, especially as a group/family activity as it is quite the value for spending some quality time with those we love. Five stars out of five, highly recommended for all!

We were looking for a new escape room challenge for our family and chestnut hill escape room (shady hat shop) did not disappoint! We loved having James as our guide. He was encouraging, but didn t give too many clues. This was a fun and challenging room to escape- lots of clever clues that our experienced escape room family appreciated! Thanks James!

We had so much fun today. It was hard enough to stay challenged but not too much that we were frustrated. The room was ready, the story/clues were engaging, and the host was great. To add to the experience, there are many great restaurants to go to afterwards.

Such a fun time with my family! It was an amazing experience with such fun and cool puzzles. It works for any age group and we all left with smiles on our faces! Thank you so much Chestnut Hill Escape Room, and thanks Ellis for being a great host!!

My family had a great experience in the Shady hat room. We had so much fun with both adults and children. James helped us today and is very nice and accommodating. The room was challenging and we had a great time, thank you an awesome experience James!!

My group adored this escape room, the room was beautifully decorated and the puzzles were challenging and unique. Had such a blast! Can t wait to do The Haunting! Thanks to Dom for being such a great game master as well :)

Omg me and my hubby and a bunch of our friends went here tonight and did the shady hat shop room. We had so much fun we will definitely be back again. Our host tonight was James , he was awesome he made the experience That much not fun.

Me and my friends and family had a great time, unfortunately we did not solve the mystery in time . It definitely gets your brain working. Staff was very helpful. There was on the street parking and lots of other places to visit once your done. I would definitely recommend Chestnut Hill Escape Room.

The Wizard of Greystone Abbey was a great room! My friends and I have so much fun and the puzzles were really creative! Dom was great and gave clear hints! Definitely will be back!

Great birthday experience for my 13 year old and his friends! Mickey was awesome at helping when needed and keeping the kids engaged when they wandered off track. Will be back definitely!

I heard screams and giggles of sheer joy coming from the Shady Hat Shop Heist room as I came to pick up my daughter and her friends from a visit. This place is a smashing success and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great time!

This was such a fun experience! The puzzles were well thought out and the space was clean and welcoming. I would definitely recommend giving them a try!!!

I ve done a few escape rooms but Chestnut Hill Escape was one of the best! James was the best game master!

Went with family yesterday. We had a blast! It was really fun and tricky. Jack was awesome.

James was great. My 13yo daughter and friend had a great time.

Great time with James
