Locked In A Room are proud to present, in partnership with Aardman in their home town of Bristol; Wallace & Gromit’s first ever escape room!

With little over an hour until the village science fete and eager to show off his new invention, Wallace has forgotten the code to his workshop! With the help of Gromit, don the Memory-O-Matic helmet and take a trip down memory lane to help him remember it, before it’s too late!

Great room, completely unique and great hosting. They have 3 of the same rooms so it was fun racing against others (the venue was very busy when we were there with lots of other rooms going on too). Theming is gorgeous. We visited during the heatwave so was great to have good aircon as we were worried. Few too many padlocks for my liking but otherwise a very fun experience. P.S it has it's own dedicated waiting area which was adorable!

A good, family friendly room with a variety of puzzles built around the Wallace and Gromit theme. Only complaint would be that the room and some of it's features were a little bit worn.

Great improvement in theming and some more techy elements than their previous rooms, but still a lot of searching around for codes to put in locks in a room built in 2023 is a little disappointing to me, a little too short without a conclusive ending.

This room has its own cute themed waiting area complete with a bonus puzzle to do while you are waiting. The room itself looks very nice indeed with lots of references that W&G fans will like. A fun experience for sure. Just a couple of odd moments with the puzzles that stop it from being really really good.

Hope you like padlocks! This is a really poor and low effort escape room. No level of Wallace & Gromit fandom can redeem this. Don't bother.

family friendly

A great theme and ideal for families. Experienced teams would find it quite easy. 

A couple of puzzles that didn’t quite flow e.g tenuous connection or using something twice.

Big shout out to Locked In A Room for this fantastic themed room! Aside from being fans of Wallace & Grommit, and escape rooms (so - cracking, as Wallace would say!), there are so many good things to say about this room! I'll gloss over one of the puzzles not registering as quickly as we'd solved it (IYKYK) but otherwise a brilliant room. A moderate number of padlocks (but tbh it fits the inventor-y theme imo) and some great set pieces. Some nice touches and nods to the movies. Well worth a visit.
