About

Escape In The Towers invites visitors into the heart of Canterbury’s historic heritage, blending the grandeur of the city’s largest surviving medieval gateway with the intrigue of a former 19th‑century prison. Inside the storied walls you’ll find three uniquely themed escape rooms – the sinister Crime & Punishment Lab, the high‑stakes World War II‑era Comms Room, and the historic Magna Carta Murder – each offering immersive puzzles, atmospheric set‑pieces, and a captivating narrative that pulls you deeper into time. Beyond the thrills of the game, guests receive free entry to the Westgate Towers Museum & Viewpoint, where you can explore long‑hidden artefacts and enjoy panoramic views of Canterbury. After your daring adventure, the adjacent Pound Bar & Restaurant – voted Kent’s best bar – offers a menu of cocktails, fine dining and a 10 % discount on drinks when you present your escape ticket. The venue is a popular destination for families, couples, and friends seeking a mix of culture, history, and interactive entertainment. All rooms accommodate 2–5 players, making them perfect for small groups or corporate team‑building events. The facility welcomes guests aged 10 and older, and special arrangements can be made for those with mobility needs. With its blend of authentic heritage, engaging gameplay, and culinary delights, Escape In The Towers is a must‑visit attraction that turns the past into an unforgettable adventure awaiting discovery.
