Fun experience for a night of fun or for a birthday party. We went twice and had the foam and the paint. It was a crazy time where you race against the clock to complete challenges in a big screen escape room atmosphere. They have adult beverages and party spaces too. At a certain hour, it becomes adult only.

Did the Bomb Arcade. Usually I'm skeptical of activities that use lots of technology, but this activity was great! Nothing malfunctioned, the family had fun, and the food and drinks were great.
Should you do the Bomb Arcade, be warned that there's not a lot of time given to sit and eat. I believe my party and I overstayed our reservation by a bit because of our food. Otherwise, this was a good experience! Staff was especially wonderful.

Updating this review as the operations manager contacted us and made it right. We appreciated the response and look forward to trying a different bomb next time we are there!
Our family had a blast at beat the bomb. We did the slime bomb and the kids couldn’t wait to show the photos to their friends. However, the photos/video never came. We called, emailed, went on the website for an inquiry, and yet never got a call or email in response. I would love to change the number of stars if we ever hear from them.

How fun!!! I took my family as a Christmas gift & we had a blast!! I expected fun but didn’t realize how realistic it would be which made it that much more fun. My only recommendation would be to potentially provide reference ‘how to’ videos in each room to give a bit more direction & instruction (or maybe a quick test round), as it took us quite a bit to figure out the games which wasted some of our time. But the employees were amazing in helping us & giving us time back. Steven was very patient with us (god bless him) & Liam too! They were both so friendly & made it so fun for us!! We will be back with an adults only crew 😝

Absolutely unforgettable experience at Beat The Bomb Charlotte!
My real estate team, The Wanner Group recently went to Beat The Bomb Charlotte, and I honestly can’t say enough good things about the experience. From start to finish, this was one of the most fun, high-energy, and well-run team activities we’ve done in a long time.
The staff was phenomenal — welcoming, organized, upbeat, and clearly passionate about making sure everyone had a great time. They explained everything thoroughly, kept the energy high, and made the entire experience feel seamless and exciting. You can tell they genuinely care about customer experience.
The games themselves were incredibly creative and engaging. They strike the perfect balance between teamwork, strategy, physical activity, and just pure fun. Everyone on our team — no matter personality type or athletic ability — felt included and challenged in the best way. And let’s talk about the paint bomb finale… absolutely EPIC. It’s messy, hilarious, adrenaline-filled, and something you’ll be talking about long after you leave.
The facility is clean, well-designed, and visually impressive. From the neon lights to the music and overall vibe, it feels like you’re stepping into a high-energy game show. The photos and videos afterward were amazing, and it made for such a fun shared memory for our group.
If you’re looking for a team-building event, corporate outing, birthday, or just something completely different and FUN to do in Charlotte, Beat The Bomb is 100% worth it. This experience brought our group together, had us laughing nonstop, and created memories we won’t forget.
We will absolutely be back — and we’ll be recommending Beat The Bomb Charlotte to everyone we know. Huge thank you to the entire team for such an incredible experience!
