My wife and I also showed up for our reservation to find locked doors. But another group said that the owner of the business next door had contacted the owner of Axem, and they said they were sending someone. So we decided to wait 45 minutes until someone came. Unfortunately for us, another party was waiting on an earlier reservation to use the rage room, so we had to go home. I understand that emergencies happen. HOWEVER, we know that the owner was contacted by at least an hour before we showed up for our reservation. That was ample time to call or email us to let us know that we should reschedule. You knew no one was there to run the business. You knew that people with reservations would be showing up. You did nothing to try to mitigate the problem. We had to find childcare. We had to go to the store and spend extra money to buy items to smash. You could have saved us a lot of trouble with a phone call. The irony is that after this experience, I really needed to smash something to get my frustration out. read more

It's $30 per person for 1 hour The staff are friendly and helpful. They show you how to throw and make sure everyone in the group gets a chance to practice before you actually start. You are able to request songs and the staff can play it for you. For a group of 6 people we got 2 lanes. Lots of parking available. You can't purchase drinks from the soda machine, you have to go to the liquor store. read more

Fun activity for date night or with friends! My boyfriend and I stumbled upon this place by accident and we decided to take the opportunity to give it a shot. We had a great time. We were the only ones there so the two friendly staff there gave us very detailed instructions on how to throw all their items they have. They let us request songs, taught us games, and made sure we had a safe and fun time! 10/10 recommend! read more

If I could give 0 stars, I would. We had a reservation at 1pm today for their Rage room only to come to the place not open. Another group came later who also said they had a 1:30 appointment and was not able to get in either. We wasted 30 minutes waiting and left several voicemails with no response. Do not recommend going to this location because they will not be open at their designated hours regardless if you have an appointment. read more

Went here because we received a gift card for Christmas and thought we would go. I tried calling the phone number to make a reservation but it kept saying the mailbox was full. So I went to their website and it had a text phone number so I texted that and got through right away. The person was able to make me a reservation and I was all set. Showed up at our date/time and we met with Kelvin (?) and he went through all the steps on how to throw, the best techniques and even let us demo it before our time started. He asked if we wanted to add on the knife and card and we said of course because we wanted to try everything. It was so much fun! They have games you can do, a whiteboard to keep score and before we knew it, our hour was up. It was such a good time! We told our friends we should go for a group night because it looks like a good venue for big groups. Definitely will be back! read more

Vibe: chill vibe, cool mancave. Awesome emo rock playlist. Making an appointment over the phone was very easy. We chose the earliest appointment, but all of the stalls were pretty filled up around 4pm. Experience: we were how to throw each weapon (axe, mini axe, dagger, metal card). We had a lot of fun just learning from the staff because they are so easy going. They provide a scoring board and written instructions to different game variations. In the beginning it was quite scary learning how to throw the weapons, but the safety lines are clearly marked and everyone participating followed the rules. Overall, such a fun date idea! Not sure why our hand smelled germy after though no matter how many times we washed our hands (we played with the metal card the most). read more

Had tons of fun here at Axem Axe Throwing! My wife and I were lucky to have the whole place to ourselves one afternoon. Probably safest for others, as our axe throwing was a bit questionable - haha! Ok, just mines. It was my first time throwing, but not my wife since she had good practice in her past barbarian caveman days hahaha!!.... Jk. The guys working were super welcoming. Once the waivers were signed and we were comfortable enough to get started, one worker took his time to explain the best techniques to throwing, and introduced our axe options. There was also a very sharp and scary looking knife you could throw, but No Thank You! Lol. Axes were scary enough for me. $30/hr per person read more

This was the first time my boyfriend or I went axe throwing, and we had an absolute blast! Our instructor did a great at job demonstrating each weapon that can be thrown. We did the hour session, and it was the perfect amount of time to get the hang of the throws. We will definitely be back and bring others. There was also stickers for sale at the counter. One had a dog which was a super cute touch. read more

if I could give this place more than 5 stars I would!! My bf and I stumbled across this place while looking for date night activities and I am sooo glad we went here. We had reservations at 7pm for the rage room but there was a big party before us so we had to wait a little , which we did not mind at all because Martin the owner let us throw axes while we waited. They also have white boards you can write on to request songs ! The vibes were definitely vibin!! Jess was the one who helped us and she was so nice and so cool too! 10000/10 would definitely come back again and again !! Thank you Jess and Martin we had SO much fun! We'll make sure to bring our friends next time read more

Made an appointment, got a confirmation from them and they never even showed up to open. Would avoid at all cost. read more

Located in one of the many shopping plazas on Azusa Ave. The lot has lots of parking and we were able to get parking in front of the entrance. Inside you're greeted by the owner and a sweet pooch named Ollie. Appointments are required to my knowledge, upon arrival you sign a release waiver online followed by a quick training course by Mark. There's free drinking water and some chairs to sit while you wait for your turn. At first it took a bit to get used to but honestly once you get the hang of it, you really can't get enough. There's some helpful photos next to the scoreboards that will give you an idea of what you may be doing wrong while throwing. My girlfriend took me for birthday and since then we've been talking about it to everyone and just kept saying how great of a date night idea it is, or to blow off some steam. Only con was it was a little warm inside, I'm not sure if it's because I'm chunky and was putting in some work or if it was just warm. Nonetheless we will be back Forsure! read more

This was a fun experience for the price and the employees were so kind, but I don't think I would recommend anyone going here unless some things change. The place was unorganized and messy. We got a Groupon deal and booked the appointment with Axem, but had to reschedule to a few hours later the same day. We showed up at the time of our later appointment, only to be told that they were "a little backed up" and could see us in an hour. Okay... not sure why they would tell us THAT day to come in at THAT time if they weren't going to be ready. But no problem I was with my cousin who was actually so chill that it prevented me from being as bothered as I might have been. We come back an hour later, and show them our Groupon for 2 people to do the rage room for 40 minutes. Well, the guy told us that the Groupon was actually worded incorrectly, and we only paid for 1 person to use the rage room. We had to pay an additional amount for both of us to do the room - they gave us a discount but it was still very frustrating. The rage room was fun, and we were given the chance to suggest music that would play while we were in there. The room itself needed to be cleaned or organized. The room was full of broken items, the floor was completely covered and you couldn't really comfortably step anywhere. The "protective" gear they gave us was evidently used far beyond its capacity. The gloves were full of holes. The jumpsuits were very limited in size, and they had big rips and missing zippers/buttons. The head gear like helmets and glasses were also very worn. The elastic was all stretched out and the helmets wouldn't stay on, the glasses were hard to see out of. The destruction tools were also past their prime, and honestly weren't even comfortable to hold. The workers were very kind and I still had fun, but the business' disorganization negatively impacted our experience. read more

Had a fun time at this small scale axe throwing spot. Location is a strip mall with liquor store & shifty looking folks in the area but inside is clean, well lit & organized. Lanes are closer together & shorter than other places we've gone to. The instructor was great as he demonstrated the safe ways to throw 3 different sized axes. We rented a lane for an hour and between my boyfriend and I, that seemed to be the perfect amount of time. No food or drinks for purchase. read more

Date Idea? Hangout with friends? Want to try something fun? Look no further because Axem Axe Throwing is the place for you! I came here with my girlfriend on a weekday night when they opened, and we had the whole place to ourselves. A HUGE shoutout to Marc for guiding us through how to throw the axes and knives. Extremely friendly and amazing teacher. Axe throwing is such an amazing activity that surprised us. We did not expect much going into it, but we ended up having a blast! Bonuses: -They have plenty of parking. -They have a music request, so you can play all your favorite songs -They have a water station, in case, you are thirsty -They have backdrops to take photos -You learn how to throw an AXE! I believe this is a family-owned business, so definitely, stop on by whenever you get the opportunity. You will not regret it. I also got this activity on Groupon, so check there for discounts. Have fun! read more

Axem Axe Throwing - Axe Throwing Near Me - West Covina, California

Tldr: do not visit this location, find any other rage room to go to because this one double-books you and doesn't take accountability for it, and their protective gear is defective We scheduled an appointment for the rage room at 8pm on Saturday, Feb 14 and we arrived at 8pm only to be told they double-booked us. They had just let the prior group start 8 minutes ago from when we arrived and they did not initially apologize or try in any way to make it up to us. They mentioned that they sold some breakable items for $3-$4 each but that we should spend the 20 minutes we needed to wait to go and purchase some breakable items from around the area while we waited. We asked if we could receive a discount for the rage room or if we could receive any of the $3/$4 breakable items for free, but they stated that the best they could do was to give a discount on the breakable items. We paid around $150 total for 5 of us so to only be offered a discount on items that are already only $3/$4 was laughable. They said they could not discount or refund a portion of the rage room cost at all, so there was no acceptable attempt made to make the situation right for us. As we dressed in protective gear for the rage room, we found that at least half of the protective gear we tried (helmets, gloves, jumpsuits) was defective, had holes in them, and wouldn't have been safe to wear. They also did not have enough protective gear for all five members of our group. When we asked for more protective gear, they stated they only had enough to supply 2-3 people at most with full protective gear and we were NOT notified of this after booking the rage room online. We will not be returning to this location due to the mistake they made with no reasonable attempt to make this right with us, the negligent and defective protective gear, and the lack of sufficient protective gear for our group. read more

This is a very cool spot to enjoy with friends, coworkers, etc. and the staff was great too!

Incredible place! Shoutout the workers there so helpful and kind. I'm sad I'm just learning about this place. Go support your local businesses, bring a friend or family member to do some axe/knife/card throwing!! It is so fun, therapeutic, and exhilarating!! read more

Not many axe throwing spots in LA County area, so it's nice to see one kind of near me. Not nearly as refined and fully furnished as some of the other ones I've been to outside of Cali, but for our little area, it definitely does the job. Booked the first time of the day and was greeted by Mark. Nice guy who explained carefully how everything worked. They don't serve food or drinks here (although there is a water dispenser), just axe throwing. Multiple bays lined up next to each other with some chairs for spectating. Lots of room to grow in this business, so you can tell that they're just getting started. Booked for one hour and it's reasonably priced. You get to throw 3 different types of axes, each a different size. They also had a knife that took some getting used to. Hour went by fast, but you can always extend. You can also request the type of music to play and they'll accommodate you. I'd come back and I look forward to seeing them grow and refine the place a bit more. If you haven't tried axe throwing, it's a great way to release some aggression and practice your zombie apocalypse skills! read more

Remi was so sweet and helpful in training us with our weapons. I highly recommend the rage room to release some stress. We will be back!

Fun little date night or friends hang out. Who doesn't want to throw an axe around!??!! It was my first time throwing different sized axes and it was fun! It is very easy to learn. I felt safe and confident after learning. We learned how to throw different sized axes from big to small. I liked the small one since you only use 1 arm instead of 2. You can play anyway you want to from how gets the most points to who gets the bullseye. Anyway you want to play. There is 1 restroom. Plenty of parking spaces. read more

I've been to this axe throwing location twice. I went earlier today with my sister and was surprised to find it empty! I guess it makes sense given that it is a weekday afternoon. Nonetheless, I had a lot of fun! As soon as you sign your waiver, a worker will show you how to throw the axes they have and have you do a few practice throws before leaving you to play with your party. The gentleman that helped us today was really nice and patient when showing us some tips and tricks. I believe there are about 6 bays. Plenty of space. They have a.c. units, thankfully! I've been to a different axe throwing spot that did not! Minimum play time is 1 hr. Each bay can accommodate 2-3 players. If your party is bigger, definitely book more than 1 bay. All in all this is a really fun activity to do with friends or even on a date. read more

Wowie!!! kelvin (sp?) was such a sweetie pie. super patient and friendly in teaching my friend and i how to throw an axe. basically there are three axe sizes (big, medium, and a small lightweight thin one) and during the demo Kelvin (?) showed us a knife and let us throw it. the knife is an add on for like $2 per person! we didn't opt for it bc we could barely throw the axe. Bathroom is clean and there's chalk in case your palms get sweaty haha. Whiteboards on the gates to keep score if your party chooses to play games and you can write songs for them to play over speaker on spotify!! also i think the price is reasonable. definitely recommend if you have rage! read more

If you're tired of the typical date night, this is the place to go! I put down a deposit online to make our experience a lot easier upon entering. We are automatically greeted at the door and all we had to do was sign a waiver (which you have the option to view before had as well). We booked the hour experience and it included a free 15 min tutorial for first-timers. The staff member was friendly and attentive to all our needs. He was at the counter at all times and he also explained that there was an option to request music (super cool and personalized)! At the end of your experience, you pay the remaining balance. Overall it was an amazing date and I will definitely come back with family and friends! read more

My lovey brought me here as a surprise activity for our third year anniversary and at first I was scared but I ended up having a ton of fun!! You need to make a reservation beforehand and also sign a waiver once you get there! This is to protect the business from any potential misuse of the axes, IYKWIM :) Our trainer was super nice and informative! Training goes on for about 15-20 minutes then your 1 hour starts after it's done. He goes over all the tips & tricks and even on the appropriate and most effective way to throw the axes. Our trainer was also super nice to let us try throwing shurikens!! I would definitely be back here and also recommend to anyone looking for a fun activity to try out! read more

Axe throwing is one of those activities that sounds both great and horrendous on paper, depending on who's writing the paper. But as far as activities go it is a different experience which is good for those looking for something fresh and novel. There's only so many times you can watch a movie or go hiking. But how does it work? Here's a step-by-step breakdown: Step 1: Go to their website and make a reservation. - To come here you will have to reserve a window for at least an hour to come and play. They have roughly six different axe throwing lanes and it is $27/hour per person. When you make the reservation it'll only ask you to put down a $27 deposit. Step 2: Go to the location Step 3: Check in and get ready for some instructions. - Whether you've thrown an axe before or you are a complete noob it is good to get instructions and the house rules before starting. The workers here are friendly and good with instructions, encouraging you each step of the way. They also don't start the actual hour of your reservation till after the tutorial so no cheating you out of your time in lane. Step 4: Start throwing - Essentially axe throwing is like playing darts but with larger, more unwieldy objects. They have 4 different things to throw at a large wooden target: two handed axe, one handed axe, pair of small throwing axes, and sharp throwing cards. Each presents a different challenge but the variety does help break up any monotony and add another level of competition. Step 5: Pay after your time is up and leave - Pay for the rest of your party once you finish and be on your merry way. Some things to know as well on your visit: 1. During your time they give you a white board where you can request music to be played. Anything that can be found on Spotify goes so whether you like KPOP or death metal they got you covered and it's a fun hype machine when you're getting into the groove of things. 2. Make sure you wear close toed shoes or you won't be able to participate. Whether a birthday celebration or a brand new date come here to try something potentially dangerous and potentially competitive in the spirit of SHOWING OFF YOUR BUFFNESS! Have fun and be safe. read more
