FAQ

  • Are the experiences only for children? NO! The rooms are designed for EVERYONE, from five year old child to seasoned escape room player. The puzzles differ depending upon the difficulty level you select!

  • Is adult supervision required? YES! If the group contains anyone under 13 an adult (18+) is required in the room with the group.

  • Where is the online waiver?   Here!

  • Do I need a reservation to play? YES! A reservation is required to play. Find available reservations at gnomeandraven.com/reservations! Be certain you receive a booking confirmation - without this, your reservation may not be confirmed. Email contactus@gnomeandraven.com if you’re unsure if your reservation went through.

  • Do you take walk-ins? We encourage you to make a reservation ahead of time; bookings can often fill up quickly and so we are rarely able to accept walk-ins.

  • Help! More friends want to join in on the fun than I initially booked for. What do I do? Worry not! There can be fun for everyone in the land of Gnome & Raven. No matter how many people you initially registered for, you can bring along as many guests as you please, up to the room capacity, day of, and we will adjust accordingly upon you arrival. Do note you are allowed a maximum of 12 in our TOMB RUINS and SHIPWRECKED experiences, a maximum of 10 in our WIZARD’S CASTLE, and a maximum of 8 in our MAGIC LAMP.

  • Can I wait in the party room while my kids play? A maximum of TWO guests may wait in the party room during the game. Since that space is still part of the game and will be used to solve puzzles, any more would make it overcrowded!

  • Can I leave the room if I need to? Not to worry! We never lock the entrance door into our rooms (remember, your goal isn’t to simply ESCAPE!), so you can leave at any time! Be warned, however: we WILL keep your clock running unless it’s a dire emergency!

  • How can I purchase gift certificates online?   Click Here!

  • Is a deposit required?  Yes.  A non-refundable, 50% deposit is required to reserve each experience.

  • What food/drink items may I bring into the party room?  You may bring cake, cupcakes, cake pops and pre-packaged dry snacks and candy. You may bring your own pizza or arrange it to be delivered to your party (we recommend arranging the delivery time for 45 minutes past the START of your adventure, and leaving very detailed instructions). Water bottles, mini cans of soda and juice boxes are included in each package. We do not allow any other outside food or beverages. Please help us keep our highly designed sets precious by honoring this request!

  • Can I bring ice cream? No. Due to the challenges involved with cleanup and storage, we are not able to allow ice cream, ice cream cakes, or other frozen treats in our party rooms.

  • Where are you located?  We are located inside STONY POINT FASHION PARK, around the corner from P.F. Chang's, and right next to CineBistro! If you park outside P.F. Chang’s, turn right and look for the big red storefront on your right before CineBistro; if parking outside Dillards, turn left and look for us just past CineBistro!

  • What is the common thread in the party package experiences ? We're glad you asked! Each of THE PACKAGES includes a ninety-minute private and hosted party that includes the use of the adjoining Hollywood-worthy party room and the experience of your choice. 

  • I’ve tried calling with a question and haven’t gotten an answer! The fastest way to receive a response to an inquiry is via email, at contactus@gnomeandraven.com! We are open by appointment only Monday through Thursday, and are often running about making magic on the weekends, which makes phone calls tricky to answer immediately. Of course, we will return any voicemails as soon as possible, and will give you a call back if you so request via email!
