The cost's like half of that of other climbing gyms! I love that the vibes are unpretentious, facilities are thoughtfully laid out and accessible for all levels, and staff are friendly and kind. I'm quite a beginner but found that there were still ~8-10 problems of the lowest challenge level for me to tackle, which was nice because sometimes there aren't as many beginner friendly routes available. My climbing partner is of moderate skill level and he found that there were plenty of routes to interest and challenge him too, and we even saw some high level climbers enjoying routes at Mosaic as well. When we went, the little gym (just two long walls) was pretty full with ~20 people climbing, but the layout allowed for not too much waiting. Courses are fairly clearly marked. Shoe and chalk bag rentals are also available. Probably will be my go-to climbing spot in the area, and even more so if I lived closer!

This is my all time favorite Touchstone gym. The weightlifting area is small, yet still has…read moreeverything you need for climbing related workouts. The setting can be hit or miss, but unlike other Touchstone gyms, I can actually usually find fun and interesting boulders to project here. Mario, one of the managers, puts thoughtful touches around the gym, like chairs to rest on in front of the crash pads, a coffee station, indoor bike racks, and effective yet comedic signage. He was extremely helpful when my partner passed out at a comp. He gave her ice packs, snacks, water, and stayed late with her while I walked a few blocks away to get the car and pick her up closer. This will probably always be my go-to Touchstone gym for bouldering! Just know that this isn't primarily a top-rope gym so there are only a few roped routes. And to The Oaks, we would love love love it if you considered staying open a couple hours later on the weekends!!!

Parking is a bit of a pain, maybe arrive when they open. Some holds can be slippery but perhaps I went on a rainy day when it was 100% humidity in the air. South Bay sunny bay girl (wink wink) couldn't get used to it. But some people say it's just touchstone in general where they have more slippery holds than Movement.

BIG news for climbing bums in the Bay. No longer do we need to ship off our busted shoes. Only to…read morewait 6-16 weeks to get 'em back. And spend another $30 on the shipping alone (that's the cost of 1 shoe repair alone)! Ben's process was incredibly simple, with drop boxes at multiple Touchstone gyms. But equally careful, as he spent the time to inquire where/what I'd be using the shoes for and match the rubber to my style. He also only sources top brands (Vibram, Unparallel) so whatever you choose is sure to stick. Lastly the final product is nothing short of mint! Absolutely loving my new/old soles and confident I'll be able to get just as much mileage out of this tread as the factory's. Adios Rubber Room & Yosemite Bums.

The staff was incredibly nice, organized, and helpful, which made the whole party feel stress-free. The facility was very clean and there was so much variety for the kids to do -- climbing wall, arcade games, obstacle course, giant jumping pad, and plenty of space to run around and play. Every kid had an amazing time, and multiple parents told me afterward that they would love to have their own child's birthday party there. Highly recommend for a fun and easy birthday party!

Off the bat, I want to say this is one of the more affordable indoor playgrounds I've been to (some I've gone to will charge for adults?!) and there was no time limit (some places give you a time limit of how long you can play for) so that was a plus. They do require you to purchase their socks (can't be grippy socks from anywhere else) but even with the socks and day pass, I want to say it was only $35? The kids loved running around the swing ropes, the indoor playground with slide, and the big bouncy thingy under the bouldering wall. My only concern about the bouncy thingy by the bouldering wall is there aren't any safety rails or things around it and I can't tell if it's safer with or without it but I definitely needed to stay close by in case he bounced off the entire cushion thingy. If you have highly sensitive little ones or neurodivergent kiddos, this place may be a tad overstimulating with the arcade right smack dab in the middle. Like other reviewers had mentioned, it would be nice if the arcade was slightly away from the physical play so that kids aren't distracted/overstimulated by the arcade screens. We did eventually end our outing at the arcades (spent another $40 on the game card...sigh) but luckily we won a big jackpot from one of the games to make it all worth it! Of note, you can't really wear your shoes in the bathroom which is kinda gross so bear that in mind. All in all, definitely one of the better indoor playgrounds in the Bay Area!

Points deducted because although some of the staff are super sweet, the others are literally the worst touchstone staff I have ever had to interact with. The catty tone that a majority of the staff have at this location is insane. You can walk in with a smile on your face and be as polite as possible and 2/3 I have been treated like I just walked into the DMV. It's especially demoralizing when me as a calfresh user has to do this interaction each time and can't just walk in. What other reviewers have stated about the customer service here is exactly on par with what I've experienced. Obligatory complaining about touchstone in general that isn't specific to Pac Pipe: touchstone sucks. The performative compassion and wokeness that the company has for both its employees and their visitors is ironic when they charge insane monthly memberships and day pass prices ($30 for a day pass plus additional if you need gear). They'll claim these prices are to pay their staff (it's not - their setters are still underpaid for their work). The student monthly discount is also so laughable compared to their normal fee. They're greedy and heavily corporatized, which is really reflected in a lot of their gyms and can lead to some locations' sets feeling stale and uninspired.
