Lady Chastity's Reserve - The Four Thieves (Room 1), Clapham was my 156th escape room. I'm from Los…read moreAngeles, CA and I've played a number of rooms with live actors. Sometimes I'm weary of live actors, but they integrated their live actor/game host well. Ford, I believe her name was (or Gabriel, in line with the character everyone meets) was fabulous and fun. This was also the first time I've played a room where you win a bottle of wine and it was located in a bar establishment. That alone was well worth it! I've consider this room to be a first generation room (no tech), but they did a solid job. Escape rooms have become more and more elaborate, but if you can make a solid first generation room, I'd take that over finicky tech based rooms. It was dark, however, but you do get flashlights. Also, it's a creepy room and my group and I hate creepy, but it was a lot of fun for my group and I. Can't think of any jump scares. I'd definitely recommend them and would love to be back for more!

This escape room is quite something! It was very enjoyable and really well done. Don't worry,…read morethere's no spoilers in this review. You can gather and chill in the Four Thieves pub downstairs and wait for Gabriel to find you. You'll easily recognise him by his old timey garb and creepy stare. This escape room has an actual storyline you have to follow, a bit like those classic adventure games. Randomly searching for clues isn't as helpful as it is in most other escape rooms as only the storyline will help unlock the clues. The room is really well done, very dark and moody, slightly creepy but not too scary. Decor and props are fantastically made, the room tends to get quite hot though, so be aware of that when you dress for the day. The clues and riddles make sense and are all solvable if you stay on track. Overall a really good experience, would definitely recommend this one!

The 3 guys working there were very nice and explained all the safety rules and gave some good advice on how to throw the axes to hit the target. The session lasted for about an hour and a half and we were all in good spirit. Overall it was really fun, the only drawback is the price, it cost £29 per person which makes it pretty expensive when you invite a bunch of friends!

More than likely if you're in a smaller group, they will form you into other groups as axe throwing then gets a little more competitive. There is a winner and a hall of fame wall. The best axe throwers of the group get to duel and challenge each other at the end of the session. The entrance is a little tough to find, as it's behind a gated warehouse. But follow signs for Whistle Punks along the gate, and they will buzz you in. A lot of photo and double axe throwing opportunities as well. Card only for their non-alcoholic bar ;)

Been a member for 18 months and the experience is getting increasingly frustrating. The workout…read moreexperience in Third Space Soho is not worth the premium price you pay. This is a premium gym, yet the space is relatively small. Recently it's clear the focus has shifted on acquisition rather than retention of members, resulting in the following pain points: - Changing rooms get super crowded: hard to find a free locker, bumping into other people post shower due to sheer lack of space, frequently having to queue for hairdryers - Queueing (behind up to 5 people) for the showers - Temperature issues in the women's changing rooms this winter: the door to the swimming pool is propped open, creating a cold draught in the pool and in the women's shower area. At regular intervals there's showers don't have warm water (worsening shower queues) - Due to overselling of classes happening at prime time there are no treadmills available at from 8AM to 8:45AM every day My husband and I were mid workout this morning, when the personal trainer positioned herself in front of our treadmills, weaved her hands and very rudely shouted "YOU NEED TO STOP NOW!". She and her colleague forced us of the treadmill mid-run, saying that they need it for the class and that there are no treadmills available between 8 and 8:45AM daily. When asked whether that means we can't do our workouts in the future he said "yes, it does, I am sorry. We tried to get more treadmills but it was not possible". So here we are, two fully paying members dishing out £430/month, being told we can't do our workouts. Given their recent focus on acquisition they need to look into expanding their space or stop accepting new members. Treadmills are basic gym equipment and need to be available for members - either limit the class spaces, get more treadmills or expand the gym.

LOVE. Using…read moreclasspass I've been able to take flywheel classes in new york and now 1rebel classes in london with the same app I use for cycling and yoga classes back in Wisconsin. I took Sammy's 9:15 am 45 min class and I loved her teaching style! very motivating and positive - she explained everything and the class was very doable. we used weights (provided for part of class too) I wondered what the music would be like & was pleased that it reminded me of my old hed kandi tracks. the studio also has the instructor raised up on a platform and theres colored lights, a fog machine and a screen with pictures behind her. It's really something else! Shoes were included and you can borrow a stainless steel water bottle. There were toiletries provided in the ladies locker room, as well as locking lockers, towels, lots of showers, a aaaand a fridge full of chilled lavender washcloths! The bikes have a flywheel and pretty sure you can hook your phone up if you want to sync what your doing on your bike too your machine. You can also go on their website for the instructors play list. This one is right by Victoria station. Wish we had one of these in the states! I very much enjoyed my class! :)

I took two spin classes and one reformer class three days in a row and enjoyed every class. After I took my first spin class, I raved about it to my BFF about how much fun I had! It took some convincing to get her to join me on my next spin class because she hates cycling (with a passion). But to her surprise, she enjoyed the class so much that she said she would do it again! The class felt like a club with loud music and bright lights! Probably the only club we will go to these days...too old to rage like we used to. It was fun feeling like we were at a club and at the same time sweating and getting a good workout in. I wish they had this studio in San Francisco, miss it already! And the smoothies are good too!!

Winter wonderland has to be one of my fav things to do when the holidays come around…read more It's best to book tickets online in advance, as sometimes you are out of luck and there are no tickets left at the place. Usually around this time of year is also very cold so bundle up. The place is a fair and a Christmas market all in one. The fair has many rides for all, from toddler to young adult to more mature. The rides use tokens/tickets and those can be purchased there or beforehand as well. They have some pretty nice thrills but if roller coasters and that kind of stuff is not your thing, not to worry, they have other fun rides that are not as intimidating, and lots of games to test your luck. The market is full of items that can be gifted for the holidays, and they have food all throughout the park, BUT they also have areas where you can sit to have a drink, and yes an adult drink haha with love music and bands, and this is probably top3 for me to do there, you feel some kind of brother/sisterhood sitting there next to strangers bonding over classic songs. This place also includes, an ice sculpture area and a circus ! Truly so much to do here, that if possible, you need at least 2 days to soak it all in. The weekends are super packed so if you don't like crowds, probably best to visit during the week. Prices are moderate and reasonable but you don't have to break bank, they usually have deals online to choose from, that best fits what your visit would look like. So go ahead, visit winter wonderland and bring home a prize!

It was absolutely packed and I can barely feel any Christmas vibes. It is worth mentioning that the park tends to attract large crowds, and there are a number of carnival mini games that are scams, falling short of expectations and potentially being overpriced. While it can be worthwhile to visit at least once to immerse oneself in the festive atmosphere, it is understandable that some individuals may opt not to return based on their personal preferences.

Popular with locals at lunchtime, yoga practitioners throughout the day, mums & nannies taking little ones for walks, and plenty of friendly pigeons, it's a lovely little spot. I've wandered here a few times over the past few years, but recently found solace under a tree on a dry bench as a flash rain shower soaked everything and everyone around me. I got about 3 drops on me - which was pretty cool. It's nice to know there's a little haven amongst the local hustle and bustle to escape to. I'm a big fan of church yards in general and while I do find it weird that the old gravestones have mostly been removed and lined up around the fence wall by the church, it's still a beautiful & relaxing spot to enjoy.
