    This was a very fun experience for the whole family. We loved it (especially my 12 year old son) and can't wait to go back! The owners were incredibly kind and helpful. I would highly recommend trying this.

    It's a great spot for a drink, and the axe-throwing entertainment makes it a fun place to stop by on the weekend.

    Can we bring in our own beer?

    Unfortunately no. We have our snack bar license so we cannot have outside alcohol on the premises. We will have beer and seltzer available for purchase!… Read more

I felt like I was at CBRN again with the way that my eyes got red and I was coughing hella. at least the staff was nice to offer me a free water bottle even though they sell at $1 each. speaking of the staff, they seem so out of it lolol. they do their job, but when you ask for reiteration of instructions, they get lost in their tracks and pass it off. they will just tell you that they can answer any questions and concerns during the experience lol. For the smash rage room, remember that it is one person at a time because the staff scolded me and almost kicked me out :( I did not know ._. for the smash rage room, try to bring your own cups, glass, etc that you want to break because it costs so much to get more than the allotted 10 pieces that they give you. I do not think that they charge you extra if you do so, too. as for the paint splatter room, bring an extra pair of clothes to change into. for the clothes that you come in with, make sure that they are dark and ones that you do not mind getting dirty...possibly being unusable. bring water for the escape room.

I saw this place pop on social media from all of the Houston influencers. I love science and NASA so I made it a point to make it here while it's still in Houston. Reservations are required and evening and weekend spots fill up quickly. Parking was easy on either the street or parking lot. The staff was friendly and informative. As soon as you walk in, you feel like you're about to be walk into a space station. We waited about 10-15 minutes after our scheduled time to actual get into the experience. You have to go into an introduction room and then to the room where you get your VR equipment. They are cleaned thoroughly between use and are very comfortable. I had a few instances were the screen would go blank but it recalibrates quickly. The cool part is, you're group is color coded in the VR world so you can stick close together. You are free to roam about the room which in the VR world is the space station. It's interactive and there's so much to see. It's so neat how organized it is and if you follow instructions, you won't run into people. After the VR part, there's a few other artistic exhibits which were really cool and made for great pic opportunities. This was so cool, I might give it another go before it's gone!

    Wow!! What a wonderful experience. Brought my adult son with me. We thoroughly enjoyed this 'walk…read morethrough space' & the interactive aspect of the journey. I really felt like I was in the shoes of an astronaut. We did have difficulty finding the entrance at first, but there was no issue getting through even though we were a bit late for our time slot. There is a quick briefing while you're in line & then you go into a room where you get to hear astronauts talk about their experiences. The VR portion is next and there is another briefing where the person walks you through how to use the VR headset. If you wear glasses, but have the option to do contacts, I would recommend wearing your contact to make it easier to wear the headset. In hindsight, I wish I wouldn't have worn my glasses. My other observation, which the venue doesn't have much control over, is- I was In a group where a woman brought about 5 kids (not all looked like they were the required age for the venue). As a mother, I have nothing against kids, but this particular group of kids were talking very loudly the WHOLE time & it made it difficult to hear some of the audio portions of the headset. Really wish the adult would have asked them to keep it down so as not to ruin the experience for others. Luckily, they were slightly ahead of us, so they exited a few minutes before us. The last part of the experience is in a chair, but with VR headset & then there are some cool photo op areas as you walk out. Overall, would highly recommended, especially if you're a space lover.

It's a surprisingly good workout and a great stress reliever. The space isn't very large, but that adds to the cozy, welcoming vibe. It's fun with a group, and also a great spot to throw solo. Ages 8+. Pricing is $29.99 per person for 60 minutes or $44.95 per person for 2 hours. Discounted group rates for 12+ people (check the official website for details). They also host events, weddings, corporate parties, and birthday celebrations. We'll definitely be back for a rematch!

I had a question on one of the featured drinks and they recommended it according to my preference - it was the Tiny Esses Sour Ale with fruit candy flavor and it tasted like Skittles - yum! This place is friendly, upbeat, and the staff are great at walking you through the process so you feel comfortable before you even pick up a knife or axe. Once things get going, the energy picks up with cheering, friendly competition, and laughter - which makes it feel more like a familiar hangout. The space has a cool, relaxed vibe and feels well run. Great for a crowd, a group of friends, a date, or just trying something totally different. I'll definitely be back!
