Fantastic gym, great layout and challenging climbs. I always love a gym that has simpler v0 rated climbs for beginners instead of not letting beginners be able to finish a climb and they have a great range in difficulty for any climber. Happy to keep coming!

Bloc Garten is awesome! There's a good mix of easier and more challenging routes so if you go with a group everyone has something to try. Plus, it's usually not as busy as some other locations.The staff are always helpful and extremely laid back, adding to the chill atmosphere that keeps me coming back!

Looking forward to their expansion, definitely needed. It would be great if they had some space for students or remote workers to set up a mini work space while they climb, add that they need yoga or something built in to supplement the climbing like other climbing gyms in larger cities. Owners: check out Brooklyn boulders in Boston (work space, workout and yoga classes all geared towards climbing)

Was visiting the area and loved this bouldering gym. They have a *plethora* of different routes at all levels and a ton of space - you could spend all day here just trying everything. Staff was friendly and helpful, and loved the experience overall.

Signed up for the Bouldering 101 class through Groupon and we were late ): They allowed us to register for a class the next day instead and still allowed us to stay and climb. The class was a blast, highly recommend to anyone who enjoys being active but likes to mix it up!

This place is awesome!!! All ranges of wall angles from slab to a rad and very unique 60° overhang feature. Climbs range from VB to V10+. For my first visit me and my climbing friend got to climb for free, rentals included - which we were very very grateful for. Highly recommend this gym to anyone looking to have a good time climbing indoors!
