Had a wonderful time last night! Our group met Ariel the manager who was fantastic, and our instructor was Keshawn who was so much fun! Definitely a great time, and they will go above and beyond to make sure you have a great time :)
Good idea in theory, but the actual experience was lackluster. We paid $30 for 30 minutes in the rage room. We were given 3 boxes of plates to smash, which we finished within ~10 minutes. We were then told additional plates are $20 per box. We asked the employees if we could have a cup of water, but they do not serve tap water. The only water available to purchase were bottles of sparkling water. We didn’t even end up using all 30 minutes of our reservation time since there was nothing left to smash. Staff are also very miserable, I felt bad for them. Would not return.
First time throwing an axe. Booked a slot for an early evening activity before going somewhere for dinner. Group of four were highly entertained by our host who gave us the rules and a quick lesson before guiding us through some competitive axe throwing games. Didn’t try out the rage room this time. I would definitely hand fun wielding an axe and would return if in the DC area.
This place is awesome! Super efficient check in process with the host, the bartender was funny and friendly and they were just super accommodating to us. We’ve been here a few times before and love it every time. It’s a pretty low-key, relaxing vibe and lots of fun. 10/10 recommend and will keep coming back.
Had a great time here! The staff was really great, and professional. Our groups trainer member was Alex, and he was fantastic! I went from never getting a single ax to stick, 100% because of his guidance and fine-tuning of my form. A little bit pricey at $30 an hour or $40 for 90 minutes, but we had a blast so in the end the money didn't matter. The trainer was included with this price, but there is a minimum of four people per group. They also have a variety of canned and draft beers, so it's got everything you need, minus a kitchen, but they have a few snacks to help tie you over if you're hungry.
