Basic Info
We are open from 9am-9pm with up to 6 hours each day dedicated to open play hours (see below for open play rates and hours). We are located on the corner of East 49th and St. Clair @ 4806 Hamilton Avenue, 2nd Floor.
Open Play Times
10am-Noon daily.
We close for special events often, so if a date you desire is unavailable when booking, it’s because there’s most likely a private event at that time.

FAQ
The recessROOM is a giant play space that contains over 40 different mini-games, a slew of toys, and rotating attractions. We’re adding new fun stuff every day. Please visit our games page for a preview of some of our games and attractions.

Currently, we offer hourly freecess, aka unorganized play, in addition to recessLabs, adult and family game night, yoga, and more.
