Again! Again! That was a blast! I am a horrible shot, but we all had so much fun! Great group event…read morefor ages from 4-104! Some of the regulars gave us pointers... thank goodness as I wasn't having a lot of luck. Ok, luck is subjective! I hit other peoples' targets 1 and 2 lanes over. Yes, I'm shaking my head too. With an hour or so of practice, I got better. Hit the paper target too-my OWN! I took the advice in Carley's post for first-timers about wearing a long-sleeved shirt. Good advice. No injuries were sustained, but I was a bit stiff the next day. Definitely, posture made a difference in my shot, and figuring out how to not get your bust caught in the bow. :-D Robin Hood I am not, but for my first time, pretty successful. I understand there are bows for kids available to rent, and the youngest they've had was 4. FOUR! So any age, any ability. It's a great sport to try - you might just love it as much as we did. Looking forward to coming for another visit. Closed on Wednesdays, but check for hours. Weekdays are better for fewer people and quick turns.

Justin, the owner, was hilarious and easy to talk to. He gave great advise for a newbie like me and was patient as I came back a few times for additional help/tips. The prices are totally affordable for trying out Archery (as in under $20!) and I love that you can come back the same day for one price. Justin did warn that the weekends are jam packed and recommended that weekdays might be easier for newbies. Justin has a pretty impressive store set up with tons of stuff to look through whether looking for hunting supplies or fun. I couldn't help but take a picture of the 100% doe and buck pee in a can to text my 7 year old at home who was rolling on the floor laughing. But on a serious note, if archery is your thing, Sir Justin can hook you up! P.S. Schools come here for archery and kids as young as 4 can come here as he has smaller bows for them! I CANNOT wait to come back!

"An Afternoon With Nonna" was an early…read morebirthday gift from my daughter, and hubby came to get bossed around in the kitchen by me... as usual. Chef Zach got us started on Veal Tonnato, a beautifully seared piece or veal with carrot, celery and onion along with some fresh herbs and white wine. We made a lovely sauce to top the veal with egg yolks, olive oil, capers, parsley, anchovy fillets, tuna (which we skipped), and vinegar. It was perfectly cooked, flavourful and oh so tender! The pasta was agnolotti with escarole and ricotta. Since we've made pasta at home many times, so we basically rocked this out! It was a filled pasta with veg and ricotta, ground chestnuts and herbs. Very veg forward but incredible flavours! We shared our pasta with some lovely young ladies who's dish didn't turn out well (not their fault). The dessert was gnocchi fritti, which is basically a zeppole. Yummy fried yeast dough sprinkled with powdered sugar. It was crispy on the outside and tender in the inside and surprisingly tender! Chef Zach is a great teacher, he had lots of good tips and kept the class moving along at a decent pace. We enjoyed some lovely red wine with our food and while we were cooking which always helps. It was a busy day in the Sorrentino's kitchen with lots of catering going on but the other chefs still had time to answer all my questions about what they were doing. Chef Jeff was very helpful and interesting to talk to! I absolutely adored the cooking class. I LOVED being in their kitchen and chatting with all the chefs!!! Today absolutely validated the cooking skills I have, gave me some new ideas and reignited my inner foodie passion! I'm so ridiculously in love with this place!

Above this shop is rooftop seating / public park. So lots of seating and a great view of the water. Lots of choices - coffee, dessert, sandwiches, snacks. Great rental place. Super friendly staff.

Thank you River Valley Adventures, and especially Josh, for making our experience too notch! I felt completely safe and supported after a quick one-on-one set up!

We were told to show up the usual 10-15 minutes before our booking time to sign the waiver and to…read morepay, but because of the way they operate their business, we actually ended up waiting an extra 15 minutes PAST our booking time. They have this stupid policy where you have to leave a piece of ID, and the staff will go in to the room afterwards to check for damage, hence the delay in play time. (I've played in a lot of the different escape rooms in Vancouver, and this is the first time I've come across this sort of policy). We had a misunderstanding regarding one of their promotions, and the staff were quite rude about it. We did the hostage room, and I was pretty disappointed by the set up. Definitely not as fancy or elaborate as Breakout. Due to the downtown location, there is no free parking unless you come outside the meter hours. I also was not a fan of the sketchy basement location. All in all, I would NOT recommend this place to anyone. I prefer Breakout by far.

I did the National Security room with some friends. We initially booked the room for 4 people, but…read morefound out once we got there that we'd be put in a group of 8 with 4 other people. I thought it was a bit weird that they didn't mention that we'd need a group of 8 when we first booked, but suddenly put us together with other people the day of our booking. Because National Security is the hardest room they have, I think it IS good to have more than 4 people, but 8 is far too many (maybe 6 max). There were just too many people and while we were crowded in a circle, trying to read a clue or look at something, there were always like 2 or 3 people who were standing around and not doing anything. We did not complete the room, but it wasn't because we were hurting for people, it was because we ran out of time. 45 minutes is far too short to do this, and just adding more people is not the solution. Also, I really didn't like the cheap-looking basement location. The setup reminded me of a very low-budget elementary school play. The props and clues, while creative, were very cheap and not at all convincing. I feel very ripped off since they charged each person $25 for a group of 8 for 45 minutes, and only got a cheaply-decorated room in a sketchy basement. I would not recommend this place, and I will not be returning.

They interrupted me while we were singing Happy birthday to my daughter, to tell us to clean up. No common decency. They couldn't have waited the 30 secs to tell us to clean up?!?! They told us to finish our cake downstairs....12, 3-5 year old move downstairs and finish the cake. That would have been so chaotic, they didn't care. One asked me if I wanted to take the drinks downstairs then another started pouring old drinks into the jugs, so there went that idea. And the free birthday t-shirt was a small but like a looks more like a large against my daughter. She won't be able to wear it for another 1-2 years. It was a stressful time. Not impressed and probably not going back.
