1. Beat the Bomb

This is like an escape game but better. You work as a team to go room by room through challenging activities (like dodging lasers) to gather up points for the final room: the paint bomb. I'd like to think we were really close to not being bombed but isn't it more fun to have paint splattered on you anyway?

2. Sip & Play

If you want a more laidback birthday in Brooklyn but still want loads of laughter and fun, Sip & Play is the place to go! Anytime there is boba involved my happiness can almost always be guaranteed, but this place is more than just tapioca and tea. Sip & Play has over 300+ board games, food, drinks, and the sweetest staff. There's a game for everyone and you can easily play for hours.



3. Social Cues

An unexpected favorite, Social Cues lets you privately rent rooms equipped with billiards, darts, and karaoke. It's BYOB and the more friends you bring the more affordable it gets.

Brooklyn has a birthday solution for everyone, so why not spend your special day in the BK.
