Great gym for climbing, not as big as some of the other climbing gyms around but is a great spot to get a climb in

This place is awesome. Everyone is super nice. There are lots of different routes and every week they change a section of the walls.

Great gym as we were passing through! Didn't seem to be AC so might get a little toasty in the summer. Fantastic set of problems.

I went here on my birthday and had an awesome time, the only bad thing is they don't have any harness if I brought my granddaughter. Other then that I will return again it was amazing and the staff was great and helpful.

Pros:-best routesetting and variability in the terrain. One of the best for new climbers.-laid back environment, very very friendly community. The staff are amazing-can bring dogs, only if they're well behaved. They even have a little water bowl for them :)-seriously, again, the community will go out of their way to help you with anything that you might be stuck on. Everyone is so helpful and informative. Best vibes-Very affordable, and doesn't have a predatory / convoluted membership system like Edgeworks does.-pads are really good, falling is a non issueCons:-parking isn't great. There's usually always room to park for free, but it's a pretty weird terrain.-area of Tacoma unfortunately has a lot of homeless, so don't leave valuables in your car.-cannot buy shoes here. Location isn't big enough to stock them.-bouldering only, no extended climbing, like lead or top rope.At the end of the day, the cons aren't enough for me to downgrade to a 4 star. Also, I can't stress enough how good the routes are! As a beginner, you may not realize how good the routes are, but trust me-- you can go from a pure beginner and train up through the grades with plenty of variety. They change one wall, once a week, so you'll have 6 weeks to work on something before they change it. It's a perfect amount of time.I had trouble with Edgeworks-- the terrain didn't feel as varied to me, the cost was higher, and the routes weren't as compelling. Climbing gyms should mainly be about the climbing, and Climb Tacoma definitely takes the cake.

Awesome facility. Super juggy beginner/ warm up area, with a huge variety of technical and underhung/roof routes in the two main rooms. Staff was very friendly and knowledge. Pumped out inside the 90 minute "session" no problem. No trouble climbing as a non- member. Highly recommend.

Great staff. Lots of routes to choose from. Plus a fitness center in back (No, it's not some fancy gym with saunas and a Jacuzzi. It's a climbers fitness center. Think Micks Gym from Rocky lol. But it has everything you need to help improve your climbing skills and get a good workout in). They also change up the routes regularly so there is always a new challenge. And again, Great staff.
