Quite possibly one of the best bouldering gyms in the area. The staff were as friendly as they were professional. The facilities were clean, orderly and everything you need is within reach. If I live closer I would definitely be a regular member.

Fun climbing gym staffed by friendly people. Method is known for their boulder walls and routes with a few and I mean few top rope routes. Overall a great place. There is also a cafe on the ground floor.

My favorite place! Best community, amazing climbing, doesn’t get much better than this. Been climbing here the past couple years and it never disappoints. They’ve got something for people of all skill levels, as well as an awesome fitness facility. Makes me happy to see family owned gyms like this thrive. I’ll be coming back here far into the future!

I've heard about this gym for years, from YouTube videos and friends. I love the architecture, the spotlights. They have all the best climbing holds, many of which I've never seen before. The routesetting was excellent, on par or better than other local gyms. There were a lot of fun climbs made with expensive holds, which is rare to find in the lower grades. There was plenty of hard stuff, some comp style problems, a wide range of hold types and textures. There was not much overhang, except for a more bare bones old school room in the back with a 45° and maybe even steeper overhang.

The people at the front desk were very nice.

I had a negative experience signing the waiver, It was a very long complicated process and the front desk person had to help me navigate the iPad.

Parking was disappointing. There is a garage across the street, But the gym charges $4 to validate the ticket. Not sure how much this ends up saving you, but for the price of a day pass they should include parking.

Overall the gym was cool to visit. I would definitely visit again.

one of the best gyms out in the tri-state area. community's at 110%. i <3 the staff. location is accessible with public transportation with NJ transit & broad st station. parking is near. there is climbing gear for sale in their cafe.

the entire gym is well-maintained. has a kilter board + tension board 2 + moon board. the route setters switch out the climbs mindfully and consistently, providing every level of climber with a good variety.

would recommend checking their instagram @methodclimb for updates on their hours, offers, their fitness classes (TRX, capoeira, yoga, adult training program, etc.) and their maaaaany events such as shoe demos, vendor markets, mixers, LGBTQ+ meetups, ladies' night, college night, monthly mock competitions, and more. super easy to get to know other climbers & find your people.

some of their events offer discounts for day passes as well, so those new to climbing can experience both the community and climbs with great value

for first timers or long-time members, method's perfect. always a good time

One of the best gyms I've been to. The facilities are 💯, the community is very welcoming and there is always something happening if not at the gym but also at the cafe. Photos are from the very first day the gym opened, we eventually became members because we just keep coming back

An amazing climbing gym with an awesome community! Joined in August because the fitness area was enticing, but ended up spending nearly all of my time climbing. The staff is incredible - always willing to share tips. And the additional classes are also top notch - yoga, capoeira, etc.
