Operation Escape
📍 West Wickham, Greater London
West Wickham escape room venue with three themed rooms for ages 7+: The Curse of Curawoods Garden, Feline Fiasco, and The Peril of Sherwin Hones. Each session runs 60 minutes with dedicated children's party packages for ages 8-15.
Me and my partner played the Feline Fiasco room and had an incredibly fun time. Visually, the room is absolutely stunning- clearly a lot of hard work was put into decorating it. We got stumped a couple of times on what to do next but our hosts, Annabelle and Emily, were incredibly helpful and always gave us a handy hint. Overall, we had a fantastic time and will be going back the first chance we get to try the other rooms! Would very strongly recommend.
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for families with children aged 10+ and teen groups looking for a challenge-based activity or birthday party venue. The room designs are elaborate and the puzzles genuinely challenging — hosts at Annabelle and Emily's standard make the difference between frustration and fun.

“Operation Escape were a brilliant choice for my daughter's 13th birthday party, her and her friends really enjoyed the whole experience! Our hosts Annabelle and Emily were amazing! And made it really fun for them. They loved the goodie bags, especially the team photo, that was a fantastic extra. Very easy to book online, and communication with the organisers was brilliant too! An excellent choice for an older kids party.”

“Myself, my mum and teen tried curse of curawoods and had the best time. We completed it in 45mins with a little help, it was a great challenge and a really creative use of space. The props sounds colours, one of the best escape rooms we have done. We will be back to try a different room and bought a game for home too. The team photo at the end was a nice touch too. Lovely staff, highly recommend.”

“It was a 10th birthday party of my daughter and it went absolutely fabulous. Fantastic venue and kids were absolutely happy when they left the room they could not stop shouting out their experiences to parents collecting them, they loved it. We chose gold package, but still the other packages represent good value I was just lazy. Recommend to everyone. Thanks Annabelle, Megan and Emily.”
