I’m a big fan of this zoo, especially the penguins, sea lions, and otters. Appreciate the good food choices (not typical hamburger joints), the touch tank, and kid’s play areas. Definitely one of Fort Wayne’s top attractions.

This was our first time doing an escape room and we loved it! The Disappearing Act room was so cleverly done, and the employee we worked with was very friendly and enthusiastic. He wore a mask and everything was extremely clean, we felt very safe in these weird times. I would recommend Room to Escape to anyone. We will definitely be back!

A really nice arrangement of different roses lots of colours even in mid September everything is out in good bloom. There’s a lake you can walk around and seating just to enjoy the fountain and the flowers. There’s a parking lot or street parking is available.
