They serve drinks. Pro tip: you can bring them in to the room with you. Unclear if you can order more from inside the room from the GM. Worth trying.

Our group loves a good train escape room and this one did not disappoint. The set dressing was exactly what you'd expect from Escapology, and they really upped the ante with this one. The puzzles were so much fun, and while they all built up to a really disappointing final puzzle, the adventure leading up to it was A+++.

Theming is great and some interesting puzzles. Room was pretty linear so most of us spent a lot of time waiting.

I really enjoyed this one but it’s very search heavy so if you don’t like searching it may not be for you.

The detail and design of this room drew us in at first. Though we quickly discovered that puzzles were not cohesive and flowed very awkwardly. On top of that, 3 rooms are featured with the attention to detail becoming less and less clear. 5 person team and somehow still wasn’t clicking.

This game was okay. It was very search based. The puzzles were fine and the clues made sense. There was nothing that really stood out about this room.
