Serve Social is a one-of-a-kind entertainment venue in Christchurch, New Zealand - bringing together escape rooms, ping pong, darts, and game shows, all served with delicious food and drinks in a lively, social atmosphere.

Our story began in 2016 with Crate Escape, a single shipping container on the corner of Armagh and Manchester Streets in a still-recovering post-quake CBD. From day one, our mission was simple: to create immersive, story-driven escape rooms that felt more like adventures than puzzles.

In 2020, we rebranded as CodeBreakers and moved indoors, stepping up our experience while keeping the same spirit of creativity and fun. A year later, we launched Serve Ping Pong Club, introducing Christchurch to a new kind of social gaming - complete with woodfired pizzas, craft drinks, and tournament vibes.

In 2025, we brought everything together under one roof - and one name: Serve Social. This rebrand reflects our mission to create shared social experiences that are easy to jump into and hard to forget.

Whether you're cracking codes, landing bullseyes, or battling it out in The Game Show, there's always something happening at Serve Social.
