Trip Advisor
Welcome to The Escape Key Newcastle
We offer four handcrafted escape experiences in our central Newcastle location.
Our premium action-packed escape rooms have innovative puzzles that will thrill everyone, from first time challengers to veteran escapees! You won't find a series of repetitive 'find the combination and open the box' style puzzles
What sets us apart from other escape rooms are our close ties to Newcastle and the North East's rich heritage. We're situated right next to St Andrew's Church in Gallowgate, next to real witch burials and plague pits!
