    Came with a group of friends for birthday celebration. We purchased the special package (extra $10/person ) for different gadgets to throw. The instructor was very nice. We had lots of fun!

    Took the dads in my life here to celebrate Father's Day (we were a group of 5). I called to booked our reservations (two of the dads are veterans and one is a firefighter); they gave us a discount for this. When we arrived, Nicole was absolutely the sweetest; thanking the for their service. Our lane wasn't ready, so we played pool until to pass the time (we arrived 20 minutes early). Jack, our coach/instructor, was extremely patient with us as we laughed and awkwardly threw the hatchets. He gave us pointers that helped improve all of our throws. Once we were comfortable with the hatches and played a game, we were able to pick other items to throw with (added on when I made the reservations). We threw ninja stars, knives, batarang, and throwing cards. Jack was again, able to coach us. After a warm up, we played another game. The winners of both games went head to head to see the ultimate winner. Once the champion was determined, he was given a trophy (also an add on). While we were there, I ordered pizza from Anthony Franco's. They delivered it with plates, napkins, cups, etc. After we were done with our games and pizza, Nicole set up balloons for us to pop with our weapon of choice. Needless to say, we will be back. We are absolutely grateful for Nicole and Jack; they went above and beyond.

    First time here with a group of 8! John H. was an ax master/instructor! I highly recommend going! You also get to bring your own food and alcoholic drinks!

    The customer service is excellent! They helped me solve a problem with my tickets. Once there, our host Jack was so helpful and accommodating, we had a great time! Highly recommend this Paramus location!

    I had a great time here with my family. Came in a party of three. The person at the front desk was so nice and explained everything to us as it was our first time there. We walked over to our station and another team member taught us how to throw and also gave us ideas for games we could play against each other. It was a wonderful time and i would go back again for sure.

    Picture time!

    SEB- Sebastián was a GREAT Axe Master! Not to mention being awesome on his 1st day!!! The staff was friendly. The atmosphere is super chill and fun. There were couples, groups, birthdays etc. We came in for a friend's birthday and had a great time. Our Door Dash food order was late and they allowed us to stay a little after our time to eat. We really appreciated their kindness!! We'll be back!!

    My husband and I went here as a 25 days of Christmas date, and LOVED it!! Our ax master was named Andre and he was absolutely amazing. He definitely helps you work on your technique to actually get good at throwing and landing on the board versus just watching and pepping you up. I have done this once before and the staff was not as good or attentive as he was! We will definitely be making this a monthly thing, and will definitely try and book when Andre is working!

    Brand new business. Just opened this week. Came for a friend's birthday and this was where he picked. This is BYOB and food. Very hipster decor. If you like chopping wood and wearing flannel this is your place. Picnic tables to hang out and watch your friends get drunk and throw axes at a wall. What a concept! You rent it by the hour and you sign waivers like the kids do at trampoline parks, on an iPad. We had food delivered with Uber eats and brought coolers of beer and girly drinks. We were taught how to throw axes "correctly" and yep. There is a correct way! You will end up sweating and getting a work out! This is a pretty large place and when we were there, there was not enough people working. Leaving people to just start throwing axes before anyone told us the "rules." The rules are basically, don't throw axes at the same time. Move away from the person throwing the axe. There was lots of girls here too and I'd say this is best for groups of friends because it's pretty entertaining watching a very girly girl throw an axe or a strong guy think he can throw an axe and suck. There was some sort of plumbing issues going on so we had to walk next door to pee which sucked but I'm sure they'll call a plumber soon. I'm sure we'll be back because the guys has a blast.

    A++++fun place to go, we had a blast ( my running group did this as a team activity today)our "axed masters" are CraIg and Irene and absolutely great teachers, you should look for them when you visit this place,they explained and thought is how to throw the axes which by the way is soooo much fun to do. They prepared some group games too. Definitely will be back heRe with friends.. the parking situation is good, there's a huge space at the back. you're also allowed to bring your food and beverages which is a plus. the bathrooms are clean and convenient Goodd job guy

    Loved the atmosphere! It was the first time we went axe throwing and the experience could not have been better! I'd say the 1 hour is perfect--you'll be a little tired for 2 hours, but still manageable! Perfect date idea if you ask me! Thank you, Cheyenne!

We picked a location that was the midpoint between my home in Connecticut and my parents' home in New York City. We couldn't have chosen a better place than Banana Cabana! From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by a staff member (I wish I had caught her name) who greeted us with a big smile. She gave an excellent demonstration on how to properly throw an axe, let us practice a few rounds, and provided helpful tips on positioning our arms and legs for the best results. The venue had a great drink menu with plenty of options, including non-alcoholic beer. We also loved the variety of games available Battleship was a favorite! Another fun touch was the TouchTunes music system, where we could purchase credits and play our favorite songs. We definitely took advantage of that! Overall, we had an amazing time and will 100% be returning if we're ever in the area again.

    Well we originally came here because online it says New Roc had bowling, and mini golf but…read moreeverything was closed down the only thing open was Axe throwing, the Movie theater, and places to eat. We drove a long distance to we went in to learn to throw some Axes. They seemed a bit short staff but in good spirits I saw a tiki bar and they had scannable QR codes on the tables but they bar and food options where closed as well so missed opportunity there. Axe throwing definitely will make you thirsty we did the 1 Hr option and would've signed up for more if there was a food and beverage option there. Only thing I didn't like is you pay for an hour but the staff started the timer before hand so we didn't get an actual hour they started the timer and then explained the rules to us and showed us how to throw it would make sense to do the tutorial and then start the timer once we are ready or once they are done explaining. All in all it was a fun experience with our group of friends definitely fun to do.

    If you're tired of bowling and arcade games, why not try axe/hatchet throwing? It's a fun,…read morestress-relieving group activity that allows you to bond with other people. Stumpy's Hatchet House is the first indoor axe throwing venue in the US. We visited the Fairfield location on Route 46 West. It's located inside a large office complex that has plenty of parking. The entrance is in a little corner. It may look small at first, but looks are deceiving - it's a lot more spacious inside. Upon entering, we were greeted by a friendly staff member in the lobby/check-in area. The ambiance and decor is ON POINT! It's a very rustic atmosphere with a lumberjack theme - you'll feel like you're in a cozy cabin. Take some time to look at their wall decor and merchandise. Reservations (deposit required) are highly recommended, especially for larger groups on the weekends. They do accept walk-ins, but only if there's available room. We came on a Sunday at 5pm without any reservations and it was surprisingly empty. You can book for 1-3 hours. Smaller groups (4 and under) are booked for 1 hour, while larger groups (5 and over) are booked for 2 or 3 hours. Pricing is based on how many hours you book for and is charged per person. They also have a 20% discount for military and first responders. We paid $60 for an hour ($30 each for 2 of us) and signed our waivers. Stumpy's has 10 hatchet pits, each with two targets and plenty of room for the participants. There are tables, chairs, and comfy sofas. It's BYOB (beer + wine only) and you can even bring your own food. They have a "bar" with light snacks and soft drinks available for purchase. An axe throwing instructor gave us a tutorial on safety, how to throw the axe, and how to use the interactive game system. Unfortunately I forgot his name, but he was incredibly welcoming, knowledgeable, and made sure we were enjoying ourselves. He checked in on us and gave us some tips/suggestions to correct our form. You can simply hurl your axes at the target or you can choose from a variety of interactive hatchet throwing games on a touch screen system. In addition to axe throwing, they also have darts and giant games (like Jenga). It took awhile for me to get the hang of it.... but I finally activated the lumberjack in me and got around to hitting a couple of bullseyes!!! This was a fun experience overall. The atmosphere was lively, music was good, and the interactive games kept us entertained for an hour. I recommend trying axe throwing as a way to bond with people over some friendly competition or to release stress in a productive manner! Not to mention... it's also a great work out ;) Put that upper body and core to work... and hurl that axe like you mean it!

It took a while for my friend and I to get the hang of it, but our husbands, who had been before, did well. After a good hour I finally became adept There was cornhole, jenga and shuffleboard. It was nice to break up the throwing. The couches were comfy too. They sell some snacks and drinks but the place is byo. They offer ice if needed. We saw some groups get pizza delivered. Would definitely return!
