8 Reasons you need to visit Breakout Liverpool right now

Breakout Liverpool is definitely one of the most fun ways to spend 60 minutes anywhere in the city – and it’s not just great for groups of mates, it’s perfect for families.

Did you know Breakout Liverpool, on Sir Thomas Street, is one of the longest running escape rooms in the UK? It has a choice of 16 different themed rooms, which take real teamwork to crack before the time runs out.

Here’s why Breakout is a top choice for families and for adults too over summer and beyond …

With 16 themed rooms, there’s something for everyone

Each one has its own unique story, from a detective whodunnit to ghost hunts, horror and a zombie invasion. Some rooms are more suitable for families, so Breakout recommends choosing the lowest 3/5 difficulty rating.

Four rooms are especially popular with families: Wanted, which has a Wild West cowboy theme, Supernova, which is space themed, The Heist bank robbery and Shipwrecked where you have to escape a haunted pirate shipwreck. 

It’s suitable for all ages

Under 16s must be accompanied by an adult, but otherwise there are no age restrictions, and younger team members are often better than adults at puzzle solving!

Breakout recommends only over-16s take on the horror rooms, although even in those there are no live actors jumping out so it’s not too scary… they include: Outbreak, Vacancy, The Facility, and The Haunting.

It’s also an alcohol-free venue so the whole experience is really family friendly.

It’s fun whatever age you are

Everyone gets to join in and contribute as part of the team which is rare in a group activity.

It’s a great way for parents to get kids away from their phones for an hour and do something face to face, the time goes so quickly when you’re busy solving the challenges because everyone’s totally absorbed. 

You can work together or compete 

The escape rooms can accommodate between two to five people. But, if you’ve got a larger group, you can split into two teams and go up against each other in a race against not only the clock, but each other too!

Two murder mystery themed rooms, Detective Office A & B, are exactly the same so you could go head-to-head to see who can uncover the killer fastest. 

All 16 rooms look and sound amazing

Each one is fully immersive so you feel you feel like you’re living the experience, and you’ll recognise a lot of the music that’s used from well-known films or games.

The design team have done an incredible job, making the rooms so realistic, they transport you – you wouldn’t believe you were on Sir Thomas Street!

You’ll make fantastic memories

Beat the clock and you’ll get to have a group photo to show everyone you did it. The Breakout team will take one on your camera or your phone free as part of the experience so, as well as talking about it for ages afterwards, you’ll have a pic as a reminder too.

You can get discounts even in school holidays 

Alongside regular pricing Breakout offers an off-peak price all day Monday to Thursday, and up to 5pm on Friday, and the more people you have in the room, the cheaper it becomes per person!

It’s in a great location and it’s all indoors

Breakout is near Metquarter, on Sir Thomas Street, so it’s very convenient for the bus stops and Merseyrail stations as well as all the city centre restaurants. And, because you’re inside, if the weather suddenly changes, you don’t have to alter your plans.
