This was an organized team building event with a very large group of work people. I was prepared to hate it. Seriously I hate this kind of stuff. And I suck at games. But, I HAD SO MUCH FUN!!! Our team of four laughed and worked well together. It was intellectually stimulating as well as physically fun. I was the only one not in sneakers but had no problem. Would totally do this again! As for the food, we were warned it was mediocre bar food. Bummer because that was the only area of improvement. The wings were forgettable, the chips meh. The tarot tots were pretty good and the lemon bars were the best thing. Since we had been warned , most of us ate before we came. There was a large selection of beer and a few cocktails. No wine. But loved the setup- you served yourself so no waiting. I purposely didn't take a lot of pictures- you will want to be surprised!

love love love!! went with my family and it was so fun! they have different types of challenge rooms (physical, mental, skill) highly recommended for families and friends!! will be going back!!

My Family (2 adults and 2 teens) and my friend and her husband all visited in Jan 2025 and had an amazing afternoon here. While we didn't get food we did get the drink wall and it was so much fun. It was busy when we were there but there was no issues with using the rooms since there is so many room. Each room is a different puzzle and an absolute blast. I love that you can play in teams too. They offered lockers for your stuff and everyone that worked there was polite and helpful. If we are ever back in KC we will be back.

This was my third time going to BRKTHROUGH, each time with a different set of friends. I've enjoyed myself every time. I will say, while a fun date spot, it's best as a double date vibe. The more the merrier in this case, up to 4 per group. You need multiple ppl per room to really be successful if you're trying to get on the leader board. Heads up, they do start your time at your allotted time, so don't be late. If you have 2 hours, you have 2 hours lol. I haven't tried the food yet but they have some of the biggest pretzels I've seen. All in all, be ready to break a sweat and use your brain.

Multiple rooms with different challenges: mental, physical, and all around challenging! Some rooms require you to test your knowledge, some rooms require you to test your balance, sporting skills, and more! This interactive gaming spot allows you to compete with other teams while earning points for each room accomplished. There are drink stands outside of the rooms for you to leave your beverage in while you are competing in the rooms. If you are looking for a fun day out with friends and family or want to go somewhere cool for a celebration, check out BRKThrough asap!

Get a card. Scan the card. Fill your cup. Drink & enjoy. Pay the piper!

What a great date night! We loved the different options for each room - skill, mental or physical (or sometimes a combo of two). The hints were super helpful (but give it a few try's before opting for the hint!) Two hours was satisfying, but I'd recommend using the bathroom and drinking some water before starting to make the most of your time. Watch out for closing time, and get there 2 1/2 hrs before closing time if you want to use all of your time on the rooms!

A very fun place to go with a group of friends, family or coworkers! I visited BRKTHROUGH twice: once with coworkers for team building and the second I won 4 passes on their Instagram holiday giveaways (hint: you should follow them on Instagram for future giveaways!!). I love how each room was different and you have to basically think outside of the box to solve it. I also liked how there's a leaderboard so we can track our score with other people that is playing that day. For each room there's a QR code you can use to scan for hints! They also offer food options and many selection of beers!

When I first heard about this place I was highly motivated to go, it seeming like a cool new take on escape rooms, which I love. Then a year and a half went by. Now that I've gone, I realize I shouldn't have waited. It is awesome. 40 rooms stand between you and legendary status as immortal code breaker. Each room is different, each requiring a very particular set of skills to get the maximum points. After two (or four) hours, your points are tallied and you get to discover where you stand against all the other wannabe teams. It's a bunch of fun! If you need a momentary break from your Sherlockian adventures, they have food and drinks available, including a self serve row of beer taps. The gaming geniuses are all super friendly, making check-in and orientation efficient and painless. Plus, they were always available for any assistance or a quick hint. And they have free lockers. We didn't make into all the rooms and a few that we tried left us stumped. I can't wait to go back.

We had a really great time! We brought our friends and godchildren, the youngest being 9. Despite some of these games being a little difficult for that age, I believe both kids had a great time. Next time we go, we might opt in for a longer reservation. Two hours didn't feel like enough! At one point, it got busy enough that there was a wait for some rooms. We didn't end up even doing all of the rooms, which means we will just have to come back! If you haven't gone, the entire system is pretty cool. A team leader wears a wristband so that allows your team to go into an available, green lit room. That RFID card also tracks your score and progress in the room. You can do as many or repeat as many rooms as you'd like. Our team's favorites were Lava and the one with lily pads, though we aren't sure if we did that one right lol. If you purchase soft drinks, it's unlimited. There's a really cool self serve bar that is done with a pass but none of us were drinking. They serve sports-bar type food there, too. We'll have to try it next time.

This place is a great experience if you are looking for some challenging fun, escape room vibes. So many different rooms that will keep you guessing what's next and enough to have a lot of people there and still feel like it's not that busy. Darren who works there is very nice and helpful with the rooms. I would totally come back with a group of 4-6 which is the perfect size!

I've visited BRK Through a few times now and have had a blast.. A much needed evolution of the "Escape Room" craze.  If you've ever always wondered if I would be good at challenges on shows like Big Brother... here's your chance.   Overall, lots of fun and definitely would recommend this unique experience to any group.

Update 8/14/22 This past Saturday was really fun! We visited Bri Through for my sons birthday . Big thanks to Noah and the manager of the food concession you both provide such great service . My son loved the rooms and the S'mores Fondue with the sparks !! We will definitely be returning again Yelp Event This place was like no other Breakout room . There were over 20 options of rooms to choose from . Allowing more options for fun . I do have to say the rooms label Physical and skilled were my favorite . The Jungle room was a lot of fun ! The Bar Tap Option is also a great idea to have drink options with the prepaid card. Between the drinks and food they were not expensive. I definitely recommend great place to come with friends , and fami

BRKthrough is such a fun experience!! This is the second time we went, and this time we brought the whole gang! Here's how it works - you form teams of 2-4 people. There are about 40 separate rooms, and each room has a puzzle to solve or a physical activity to complete. You get 3-5 minutes to solve/do it, and a possible score of 100 points per room. If you fail, you can just re-scan your team back into the room and try again. Most rooms don't have instructions, so you just have to figure out what to do. You're competing against all other teams of the day/night, and you can check the leaderboard at any time and see where you stand. The facility itself is really nice and new, and they seem to maintain the games really well. You can get food/drinks if you get tired of playing. The workers are very nice - good customer service! And they also have free lockers for your stuff. I will say that this is a place for more fit people - the physical challenges are HARD. I'd definitely be worried about having, say, my older (although physically fit) parents try them, because it seems like you could get hurt fairly easily on some. You do have to sign a waiver beforehand. Almost everyone in our group of 10 loved BRKthrough! The ones who didn't enjoy it so much were those who aren't crazy about escape rooms/puzzles.

Reviews are largely positive. Many highlight the variety of challenge rooms, friendly and helpful staff, and a clean, spacious facility. The unique self-serve drink wall is also appreciated.

Is there anything Gluten-Free on the food menu?

Can players go to and from restrooms and game rooms?

Yes, you can exit the rooms whenever you need to; however, your time won't stop. The good news is your teammates can keep going while you are away, and you can always retry a room if you need to.

Are you able to bring drinks into the rooms or is there just the dining area where you can drink?

Hi Mikayla, We do not allow drinks into the rooms. A lot of the rooms are active and require players to use their hands. We want to make sure the players and the rooms remain…

Our table was right at the junction next to the waiter station where they entered the orders. Which wasn't terrible but some of the staff had a tendency to yell toward the back of the restaurant standing there over our table, which got a bit much by the end of our meal. Also, the HVAC was exceptionally loud and kind of whistled. I mean, we appreciate A/C, don't get me wrong, but by the time you have the upbeat music, the yelling, and the loud HVAC we were ready for some sensory deprivation by the time it was all over. Those tornado fries (probably referring to them by the wrong name) were fantastic. So good! The sandwich was good, not great, nothing particularly wrong with it either. The price was great for sure. The nachos put on quite a show, they come out stacked to the clouds, but once you start digging in, you realize there's way, way, way more chips than toppings and just kind of sad. Things tasted great, but just give me less chips so I can actually taste the cheese and stuff. Then, at the bottom of the mountain was a heap of cheese that you couldn't get to at all until you dig clear to the bottom. We'll be back I'm sure. Maybe will consider takeout instead of dine in, but there's more things we do want to try.

Apparently, a Bowl of Chili Takes Over an Hour…read more Ordered around 11 PM on a Friday night. Cold night, cold apartment--a bowl of chili sounded perfect. My DoorDash driver arrived at the restaurant around 11:20 PM. By 11:50 PM, the order still wasn't ready. Mind you, it was originally supposed to be delivered by 11:35 PM. The food didn't arrive until after midnight. Normally, I'd just cancel and move on. But what really bothered me was watching my driver waste over half an hour of his Friday night, losing valuable time and potential income during prime delivery hours. All this for a single bowl of chili. And then came the ridiculous explanation. According to my driver, the waiter claimed he couldn't find him, despite the driver being there the entire time. My driver even remarked that he stuck out like a sore thumb. Eventually, he had to go back to the kitchen himself to get the order sorted out. That explanation raises serious questions about the restaurant's honesty and accountability. Rather than acknowledging the delay or taking responsibility for the situation, the staff apparently blamed an inability to locate a driver who had been waiting right there. What bothers me most is the complete disregard for a fellow service-industry worker. Delivery drivers are working just like restaurant employees, trying to earn a living. Keeping someone waiting that long, particularly on a busy Friday night, shows an astonishing lack of respect for their time and livelihood. I had a bad experience here previously but decided to give Iron Horse another chance. I genuinely didn't think the experience could get worse, but somehow they managed. At this point, there's no reason to even comment on the food. The service alone earned this one-star rating. Don't order from here unless you're prepared to wait over an hour for a bowl of chili while your delivery driver loses a chunk of his night dealing with an establishment that can't get its act together.

The game rooms are enjoyable. I appreciated the friendly and attentive staff, which made our experience top-notch. We would definitely return. However, I have a few suggestions for improvement: 1. The staff should inform players that even if a room is occupied, they can scan their wristband and select their game to be placed in line. This would eliminate the next players eagerly waiting for the current players to finish their game to only have to keep waiting because they are hitting the green Replay button inside the room. 2. It would be helpful to clearly state that the doors open only when pulled closed and then pushed. Otherwise a push door indicates that we should push it. 3. If an adult must be present at the facility throughout the entire gaming experience for children aged 6 to 13, it would be beneficial to monitor this requirement. 4. And a lounge room with no refreshments for purchase?

Omg. We had such a great time…read more My first piece of advice is spring for the hour and a half. That first hour went by so fast because we were having so much fun. I appreciate that each room had MULTIPLE options for game play. On top of that, you have the chance to play as a team and to play individually.
