Amazing venue for a kids birthday party!
Exciting escape room, board games while you wait, great space for food and kids. Thank you soooooo much for this morning… you are a great team and my son and his friends loved the party… clean, helpful staff and super fun escape room

We had a wonderful time at takapuna escape. Our appointment was at 7:00
Pm Saturday 21/06/2025. The person that was our game master was the most wonderful host. We enjoyed our time. We were very bad at the game but host hints really helped us finish in time. We had such a blast and will definitely come again as we felt so welcomed

We just took five boys for a nine year old birthday party and the boys had blast. We chose the jail break package including pizza, chips and drink afterwards and this was superb, made the day. The room escape was really good for them, one adult had to be in the room, they didn’t complete it but were not far off, great having walkie talkie communication to ask for clues if you needed it.
The reception area was so cool to have the pizza and birthday cake with little booths for six to sit, decorated great with twinkle lights and background music, we had an hour to eat and cut the cake but no one rushed us at all.
The staff were super good with the kids and very helpful, we will definitely be back.

Went here to do the backstage pass room and had a blast, challanging enough to be fun but not so much you're standing around not knowing what to do. Staff were lovely esp Melissa, who was our game master! Great time, would recommend 🙂

This was a great venue! We had to "escape" from a mountain slope so we did not freeze to death. We solved it with a couple of spare minutes. Well done Escape HQ Auckland, you kept us amused and there were no fights . The location was great with lits of parking available. What I also like about this venue is that it caters for young children as well. Will definitely go back for another adventure.

Came here for a large team event (~70 people) and had an absolute blast! Everyone raved about the escape rooms and it was an awesome way to get to know coworkers who you might not spend time with. Highly recommend.

Escape HQ is a great escape room to have as the local. We've played through all of their indoor rooms, and have found them all to be good fun, with great puzzles. We've found the puzzles to generally be very satisfying to solve - they're not often making illogical connections, unlike some others out there. The rooms at Escape HQ aren't as technologically advanced as some escape rooms, but this isn't inherently a bad thing - we've played through both a very well executed and a very poorly executed highly technological room in the past at other facilities, so the consistency here was valuable. The staff are always friendly, and we look forward to coming back when their next room refresh occurs.
