Just had a great morning with Shane. He is a true professional, he analyses deconstructs and explains the process in the simplest way to allow the shooting process to become so natural. He even thought us some communication skills ! This is well worth doing.

Reviewed By Amyjeanos

My boyfriend and I visited this comedy club and it really was tiny! I would recommend coming early enough to make sure you have a comfy seat, as it really is small! The place was full and the atmosphere was great. The free pizza was from supermacs along with sausages and wedges (my boyfriend and I are vegan and were delighted to see wedges!) The host was absolutely hilarious, along with all the acts. Great value!

We cater for ages 10 and over (no upper age limit), so if you think you can… then do! Customers can choose from a range of exciting and fun activities in a healthy and safe environment, from our “Battlefield” sports such as Laser Tag and Paintball, where teams could be capturing and holding an objective, storming a base or escorting a V.I.P. to an extraction zone, to our more relaxed field sports such as Archery, Disc Golf and Orienteering where both individual and team stamina, skill and intelligence is tested to the maximum. We are a wholly Irish owned and operated outdoor activities provider. Our instructors are from, or live in The Gaeltacht area of Conamara and our activities are conducted in both Irish and English.

Thanks to all the team at Eile Mental for a fantastic experience. It was really well set up and organised and in a cool location. We were a large group for a hen party (guys and girls) and everyone had great craic dressed in combat gear. The shooting and archery were brilliant and the staff were friendly and helpful. Thanks again, we will definitely be back!

Well worth a visit. My 4 and 6 year old really enjoyed all this indoor playground had to offer. The staff were friendly and attentive during our visit. We felt safe during our visit, with our temps taken on arrival, tables socially distanced and hand sanitizerrs available throughout. Although we did not have hot food, it looked good. The coffee we got as super.

Observe your surroundings, solves clues, work as a team and make the connections. Adrenaline kicks in - excitement, tension, focus, laughter and team work - creating an amazing experience. Opening hours- Monday to Sunday 1pm-7pm for bookings and walk-in's (7pm-10pm pre-bookings only). Book early to avoid disappointment.

Great fun was had escaping the Vault room! It was very well set up, challenging yet exciting having to think outside the box. We felt super safe regarding all things Covid. Would definitely return to do another room here, when in Galway again. I would highly recommend to anyone thinking of making a booking and looking for a fun evening, 10/10. Thanks for looking after us Niall!

Really enjoyed this went as a group of 4 and did the Chernobyl room. We managed to solve it with 4 minutes to spare (plus 2 hints). Really helpful and friendly staff. Definitely recommend.
