About this venue

Escape Room Baarle was a single-room escape room above brasserie Den Engel, in the heart of the unique enclave village Baarle-Nassau. The room 'Het Douanekantoor' was set in 1937: you stepped into the shoes of smugglers moving tobacco, alcohol, and butter across the quirky Belgian-Dutch border, outsmarting customs โ€” a wonderful, truly local theme. The execution unfortunately didn't match: reviews varied wildly (1 to 10) and complained about inconsistent organization because the room was a side project of the brasserie. The escape room has since closed permanently and the website is offline. Little public data, so a thin picture.

What visitors say

  • Fun and genuinely local smuggling theme, unique to the border village Baarle
  • Could easily be combined with dinner at brasserie Den Engel
  • Highly inconsistent experience and organization (scores ranging from 1 to 10)
  • Mediocre game experience; the wonderful theme didn't come to life
