From the reviews

I absolutely love this place. Started coming here probably about a month ago and hubby got us a family membership. First off, ALL of the staff are incredibly friendly, attentive, knowledgeable, and professional! Customer service has been exceptional and honestly exceeded my expectations. Second, this place is clean!

★★★★★ — Jules, Mar 2022

This place is absolutely amazing. From the outside it is unassuming and you’d have no idea such an adventure awaits inside. The staff are phenomenal. We hired one of the staff assist us belaying for the kids and they had the time of their lives and conquered some scary fears in a safe environment.

★★★★★ — Brittini, May 2024

I freaking love this place! It's the best rock climbing gym in Seattle and I'm not just saying that. The staff are extremely friendly and encouraging. There's a huge bouldering area which I love. Overall it's a very nice community and easy to make friends with other gym members.

★★★★★ — Sarah, Dec 2021

Fun place. They did get rid of the self-belay. Was quite expensive for day drop in. Around $55 for a child and adult with only 1 shoe rental. They should have a 2 hr drop in time for bouldering in the morning when it is less crowded and cut the price, so it is more affordable for drop ins.
